This just in: A new study--the first of it’s kind, apparently--just confirmed that time and attention given to grooming, um, lady parts is on the rise, particularly for white women between the ages of 18 and 24.

The research--published in the journal JAMA Dermatology--found that after the age of 24, women were much less likely to invest time, money and pain in regular upkeep down there.
