"Shave" The Date

To commemorate our new found freedom from eight wretched years of Bush rule, the Mominatrix is encouraging you to unite together and “Shave the Date” -- Inauguration Day, January 20, 2009 -- when we [the people with pubes] will leave no bush behind:

"We, the people with pubic hair, should come together and celebrate this historic election. Show your love for your country, and as you watch our new president take his oath and feel your satin undies against your smooth nether region, you can take pride in knowing you've rid your world of bush once and for all." - Mominatrix

Of course, for those of you not interested in baring it all there's always the symbolic gesture of taking it off without actually taking it off. I'm talking about the 'merkin' (a popular pubic-region wig used by burlesque dancers as a way to comply with the law while still giving the illusion of complete nudity.) And, as fate would have it, this look appears to be growing in popularity among designers looking to call attention to the nether region. (Let's just hope there are no Kitty Merkins in the works!)
