Ex-Real Housewives of NYC star, Cindy Barshop has a new line of Merkins that she’s selling at her waxing salon. Best part about them is that they’re totally PETA friendly because they’re made from faux fur. But there’s one slight problem…the cha cha wigs start at $195…so…yeah…

People should save their money, grow out their disco bush, get a can of hairspray and call it a day!

About

Although comedy is her profession, Nadine has accomplished a lot in her young age. She is a national champion black belt, a world-class soccer player, and an avid snowboarder. She started playing soccer at the age of 4, and continued playing through college where she majored in Biology, but quickly realized her destiny was to tell jokes, not to wear a lab coat. So she decided to be funny while finishing her Bachelors Degree in biology and continued on to get her M.B.A. Nadine’s comedy style is much like her athleticism, fearless. She’s made her way up the comedy ladder very quickly, and has become a club favorite at many of the country’s top comedy clubs, including the Improv chain. Performing in the Boston Comedy Festival and being noted as the “one of the youngest and brightest up and comers” and traveling to the Middle East to entertain the troops are just a few of her notable accomplishments. These days Nadine splits time between the stage, a radio studio, her computer blogging, and a television studio. Nadine’s TV, Radio, Writing credits include: national commercials, talking head roles on E! Entertainment, Showtime’s Hot Tamales Live, The Skinny: Fat Free News, The Sunny Side of The Truth: Real World Hollywood, TVgasm, Zazreport, Daddy’s Girls, Jerseylicious, celebrity interviews on Mania TV, a weekly half-hour television show that syndicates to colleges across the country for National Lampoon and a nightly radio show on XM Satellite Radio.

    Oh these things have been around for a long time. Although it begs the question: why bothering waxing down there (besides the fact that a shaved pussy really does look quite ridiculous)?

    Ladies, here’s one to grow on. Unless you’ve been cast in Boogie Nights 2: Still Up to Boogie, YOU DON’T HAVE TO BUY ARTIFICIAL CLIP-ON PUBIC HAIR. If a guy likes you, he will be more excited than a Yellow Lab with an old tennis ball to see you in the altogether. He is not going to be thinking “Darn. If I’d have known, I would have dropped by the Merkin store instead of the florist.”

    Ditto for fake boobs. And duck lips. And anal bleaching.

    @ NWMTV, well I was not prepared for that statement to be so funny. Almost choke on my own damn spit trying to catch a guffaw.

    @ Itchy – I knew I liked you…but now you’ve solidified it. I’ve always thought that completely bare was skeevy. Isn’t it a crime to have sex with a pre-pubescent child? Bushes unite!!

    it is not skeevy, nor is it pervy…and while smarter and more vagina-havin’ folks than i can share their opinions on the visual appeal of the shaven yak, i can say that i personally prefer to oral pleasure a woman with as few obstacles as possible.

    physical obstacles, i mean, not moral or ethical.

    I saw this on Gawker yesterday. The consensus was that we all thought vajazzling was bad, but a fur toupee for your vag is soooo much better!

    Yes, merkins have been around for a long long time. Centuries I bet. Surely you didn’t think that sexy times only started with the internet?

    One of the greatest literary scenes involving merkins is in Curzio Malaparte’s “The Skin” (Zing! Tvgasm’s Google Literacy Rate just had a boner!) … highly recommend that novel, one of my all-time favorites.

    If I like a gal enough to go down on her, hair is not an issue. And like I said, bald pussy is creepy. But sure, a neatly coiffed bush can be quite pleasing to the eye. I’ll give you that.

    As for Gawker. They suck. That stupid hearted-commenter hierarchy shit. Ridiculous.

    Since women have been infantizing their mons de venus by stripping them bare, all of a sudden they think their lips are too big and they are having surgery to reduce them. If they would allow them to be tastefully adorned with hair, they would not feel the need to clip!!!

    Have to agree with lulu. The hair is there for a reason. And since we’re in the area, thongs are also disgusting :P . I think of them as direct avenues on which ass-to-vag contamination occurs.Instantly. When you put it on. Right Away.

    Well, for all you ladies who want to grow your own hair, I have a way to make sure your bush puts those fake merkins to shame. Introducing my new line of products…Pubinescent! Organic shampoos, conditioners, hot oil treatments, and even vegetable dyes, specially formulated to make your pubic hair stand out! (Or lie down, if that’s what you prefer.) Many have tried and enjoyed our products and we have the testimonials to prove it:

    “My boyfriend never went down on me because he said my pubic hair was ugly, coarse, and mousy-brown. So I conditioned it using Pubinescent creme and even dyed it red, his favorite color! Now he races home every evening, begging for a taste of my fire crotch! Thank you Pubinescent!”

    Act now, supplies are limited.

    laughing hysterically while trying to hold down gagging from the mental pics is not easy

    It’s really too bad the holidays are over. I could have bought my boss one for Secret Santa.

    Valentine’s day is just around the corner!!

    It’s not too late to get 20% off our new shade, “Fuzzy Peach.” You more than just hair coloring in this package. It’s also scratch and sniff!

    Okay. I want an honest answer. What do men prefer? To bare or not to bare, that is the question.

    Depends on the man, I guess. Some guys go by the porn standards of beauty..if the women are busty, blonde, and waxed..then that’s the standard they go by. Some men, who were around before this trend, see it for what it is..a trend. And sooner or later, another trend will follow.

    I do think it’s caused a lot of unnecessary insecurity, though. No one ever worried about “beef curtains” before Brittany et al started airing their waxed vagges out in public.

    Maryedith, please! Some people would like to live in a world where there are no Bachelor spoilers, and I would like to live in a world where I do not encounter the phrase “meat curtains” on the Internet.
