I am embarrassed to ask, but I'm sure many pool owners have this problem. Last weekend, I had friends and family over for a swim party. One of the ladies (I'll call her "Nina") neglected to trim her bikini area, and it was quite noticeable. My guests kept bugging me to tell her, but I didn't have the nerve.
One of my guests finally said something to Nina. She just shrugged it off and casually acknowledged that she forgot to shave. I got the distinct impression that she liked the attention. This has happened before when Nina and I have gone to the beach. It's quite embarrassing, and you can't help but notice. What should I do?

Dear California:
If this happens a lot, we assume Nina does it on purpose. So, stop inviting her to your pool parties, and if she asks why, tell her. Enough already.
I really have to ask, don't you and your friends have anything better to do than to gawk at someone's crotch? From the tone of your letter, I would suppose you to be older than 14 and should have outgrown such adolescent shenanigans. Apparently this is not the case.
So she didn't shave. So what? She may be allergic to the noxious chemicals or razors may give her a rash, whatever. As far as I can see, her only real problem is hanging around with a bunch of utterly classless (not to mention rude) individuals such as you.
Better you don't invite her in the future, but not for the reasons Annie gave. With "friends" like you, enemies are entirely redundant.
