I am 24 now, and I must admit that I have, and sometimes still do, especially in the summer(for bikini wearing). I also find it to be more comfortable with wearing any sanitary products, as the hair does not get stuck to the adhesive and get pulled. There may be many reasons why she shaves, if she does. Some may find it more attractive, sexually active or not. Many women do this, dont be alarmed. If you are still unsure about her shaving, or under development, why dont you just sit down and talk to her, ask her? I am sure you will be relieved to finally find out whats going on. Also, when is the last time you have actually seen your daughter nude? You certainy cant know what you cant see.
