The idea of being well groomed is somewhat arbitrary and culturally coded. In many cultures having a well maintained bush is seen as tasteful and shaving oneself bare is seen as prepubescent.
Back in college some folks put up flyers all over for an anti-Bush rally. Counter-protesters showed up all pissed and were greeted with an anti-Bush the band prank protest.
Entomologists reserve the term bug for Hemiptera or Heteroptera, which does not include other arthropods or insects of other orders such as ants, bees, beetles, or butterflies.
Sure, if you’re talking about ‘true bugs’ (Hemiptera), but the difference from colloquial meaning is incredibly clear, and that Wikipedia page itself makes the case clear when it mentions that ladybugs are not true bugs (they’re beetles), but I would absolutely call beetles and ladybugs ‘bugs’ separate from the taxonomy. Perhaps it isn’t perfectly scientifically accurate, but humans don’t usually divide things into groups taxonomically for day to day usage, they divide them behaviorally, characteristically (see: fish).
If it looks like a bug, behaves like a bug, and fills the ecological role of a bug, calling it a bug is plenty accurate for day to day use. And characteristically? Them’s bugs. Crayfish are called mud bugs for a reason.
According to graduate surveys 454 entomology degrees were awarded in 2023 in the USA, the most common type being a Masters. According to statista an estimated 4,200,000 people in the USA received higher education degrees in 2023, it is therefore reasonable to assume that roughly 99.99% of the USA already had an entomology degree.

if you don't like [pubic hair] you literally don't deserve to fuck
Aren't there some sort of panties with a heart-shaped hole in the front? It would make it seem basically like in those toddler books where they learn to feel different animal furs
Glycerine, Machinehead, and Everything Zen are all still pretty damn good for radio ready post grunge. Miles ahead of anything Creed or the other cleaned up post grunge bands were doing.

I’m not like entirely opposed to bush, but being well groomed is often appealing.
yeah he always looked pretty well groomed to me
Why did you share this picture of Adam Sandler?
He’s such a clown, look at him hamming it up

I assume a bush can be groomed but I've yet to master the concept personally
i've heard bonsai is quite difficult
it's the restraints that are hard to tie
it's mostly to do with bathing and trimming hair
as i'm a south american, i just don't care about bush at all

but they're not, they're crustaceans
Crustaceans is bugs, though, I mean just look at lobsters
no. bugs are a specific type of insect. Crustaceans are not insects.
Bugs is not limited to insects. Bugs is a vibe, not an actual taxonomical category.

Here's the thing...
I like you, pedantic or not.
Exactly. Anything can be bugs. Isopods can be bugs. Shrimp can be bugs. Weird kittens can be bugs. Even you can be bugs.
Entomologists use it that way, but most people aren't entomologists.

shrimps is bugs and they fried this rice
Well yes, but bugs are also crustaceans. You could argue it'd be more accurate to say bugs is shrimp.
Took me a second too ngl

I sure hope your pubes aren't public :)
Not with that attitude
Oftentimes, on men, they are, and they're quite proud of them.
I sure hope yours are ;)

Well I can confidently say not a lot of people have seen them so they are definitely not public 😎
I've actually never seen a woman without a bush. Although I've unfortunately seen a few trimmed (once or twice excessively) ones.
