Manzilian Waxing + Sexual Confidence ★ Man Thing

Waxed man exuding sexual confidence covers his pubic area for modesty

My name is Andrew Thompson. I've performed 25,000+ male Brazilian wax treatments. During this long career, one thing I've learned is that for many male clients, their first Manzilian is the start of a journey, a quest for sexual confidence, self-discovery, and reinvention.

Men's Brazilians or 'manzilians' as they're increasingly known, are the poster child for men's waxing. The story goes that a Manzilian will lead to sex, or improve sex, or increase your chance of fellatio etc, and these things are demonstrably true.

Enjoy the article. Feel free to contact me if you have any further questions, or drop into my Rockhampton studio for a chat. My details are on the bookings page.

Have a brilliant day,
Andrew Thompson

A quest for sexual confidence

Something triggered inside you to make you ponder waxing your pubic hair. Maybe it was big or maybe it was small. Maybe you're not even aware it happened.

It began when you first Googled the topic. Perhaps you then had second thoughts, then maybe the next day or months or even years later, you plucked up the courage to get a Manzilian.

That was your limbic system taking control.

For whatever reason, your limbic system - that ancient mammalian part of your brain which induces such wonderful emotions as lust, anxiety, fear, and arousal - began challenging its master, i.e. your dull and stodgy cerebral cortex, which tries its best to keep you roped to the herd.

Put simply, you felt sexually or romantically disconnected. You realised, at least subliminally, that whatever masculine behaviours you'd relied upon in the past, no longer fulfilled you.

Resisting peer pressure

You need change. You need to feel more sexy and confident. So now it's crunch time. Do you get waxed or not? And with that question voiced, this is where things - and you - get interesting. Or not.

We're pack animals by nature. That's how society keeps us contained, and that's fine. Conformity might not grant us much freedom but it does provide a sense of community, of knowing your place in the world.

Thus, it's not so much a fear of pain that makes men second-guess waxing their pubes, but a fear of being teased or ridiculed by their peers, a.k.a. the other sexually insecure males in the herd.

For these men, compliance is vital. They have a boss to impress, kids to feed, a mortgage to pay, and a wife to obey, often all intertwined.

So they back off, suppressing their desire for more frequent and happy sex, and more rounded mental health, in favour of becoming old and fat and "happy".

The reality is, that only 5% of men actually make it to the point of receiving a Manzilian Wax, and that fact makes it easy for you to stand out in the herd.

Be warned though, it's addictive. Soon you'll be trying to get in shape too, losing that gut, and putting some muscle on your bones.

The pursuit of sex and confidence is a dynamite combination. It's the number one reason why men get waxed, and the simplest first step you can take to reinventing your otherwise bland life.

Choosing a Manzilian wax studio

Popular and experienced male waxing therapists understand all the above. They know you're here to try something new, and to improve your sense of happiness and self-worth.

They (should) also know that every man is different and they have no reason or right to judge you. Armed with this forewarning, if you walk into a waxing studio and are greeted with judgement or attitude, turn around and leave.

Equally though, you're expected to behave with courtesy. You're going to someone's place of work to receive an intimate treatment.

Don't go there acting like a jock. They'll have rules of etiquette for Manzilian Waxing that you're expected to obey.

Do you want extras with that?

So, with all of that in mind, and before you book in for your first Manzilian, let me clear up one major misconception from the outset. That is, your waxing therapist is not feeling the same rush of emotions or adrenaline as you.

Chances are, your dick is not the first one they've seen today, nor the biggest, smallest, prettiest, or ugliest. They won't fall in love with you, or be so impressed by your penis that they'll jump your bones.

They're handling your junk because you've paid them to do so. The most you can hope for, if it's something they provide, are intimate extras. Again you'll pay for the service, and again, they don't love you. They are simply doing their job.

If indeed you're hoping for a happy ending after your Manzilian, and assuming they provide said services, here's one more piece of advice:

Find a waxing therapist who gives hand jobs, not a sex worker who waxes. If you want a good result and safe experience, waxing should be their main income stream.

From one waxing therapist to another

When it comes to men's waxing, I enjoy a devoted clientele 25 years in the making. Quality, respect, and a unique point of difference are all important reasons for my success and longevity in the trade.

But one other factor that is often overlooked by noob practitioners, is sexual confidence. You must project that quality. Your client wants to know, and to be constantly assured, that you, the therapist to whom he's entrusting his nuts, are both confident and comfortable with your craft.

He expects you to be positively charged and kinetic, and hopes - perhaps not consciously - that your sexual energy will rub off. He wants to leave feeling empowered, and when he faces the outside world, to act as confidently as you.

The challenge for Manzilian therapists is to live up to client expectations. You can't hope to make guys feel at ease with their bodies if you're not comfortable with your own.
