Pubic Dismay
The awful feeling a man experiences when he slides his hand down a young woman's panties, only to find that she shaves/waxes her pubic area. This effect only applies to a small number of American men (aprox 1-2%)who enjoy a nice full bush over the generic standard of a shorn beaver.

I had the worst case of pubic dismay on Friday night when I took that pig home. Her attempts to be sexy for me were ruined when I felt her brillo pad pussy.
