Merkins were originally worn by prostitutes after shaving (down there), and are now used as decorative items, erotic devices, or in films, by both men and women. The female version is usually made of fur, beaver pelts, linen or some soft version of cloth, while the male version is usually made of loops, chains, or metal, and is much more closely related to the codpiece

The origin of the pubic wig goes back to the 1450s. Legend has it that women would shave their pubic hair for personal hygiene and to combat pubic lice. They would then don a merkin. Also, prostitutes would wear a merkin to cover up signs of disease, such as syphilis.

It has also been suggested that when male actors played female parts onstage, they would cover their genitals with a merkin so they could pose as women in nude scenes.

To be clear, I write these pre-blast and back-blast missives from a combination of passion, sickness and a fairly unique brand of humor. However, I do not want others to feel that these type of expansive commentaries are expected, and therefore would prevent others from taking part; nothing could be further from the truth. My therapist says that using the written form and not physical form aggression is a much more positive form of expression.

Great work gents!
