First of all, you ladies who wax are WAY tougher than I am. I'm a pain weenie, I guess, because even the thought of waxing makes me shudder.
Ahhh, but the momentary pain of waxing is nothing to the ongoing skin irritation I suffer from with shaving. Plus it gets easier the more you do it (the hair does not grow back in as fully and you also get more used to it).
