Apologies to my best friend Blue for once again mentioning Movember (”Get over it, it’s done. If you mention Movember one more time I’m going to stop reading your blog.”), but the idea of people growing bodily humor for charity came up again over the weekend.
Cagey and The Princess had, at the beginning of Movember, “threatened” to grow out their leg hair as some sort of response to my Movember team’s efforts to grow ridiculous-looking mustaches. I effectively told them I didn’t give a shit and that they should knock themselves out. Of course, female vanity triumphed over evil and they continued their leg shaving schedules.
But on Saturday night, while imbibing many beers at Bedrock in celebration of Baby Bien’s and INPY’s combination birthday, the idea of women growing out their hair for charity came up again. I don’t even know who brought it up (probably me) but we agreed that if there were to be such a month-long event, it would be in October. And they would have to grow out their pubic hair.
Everyone was in favor of creating this charity event. If a bunch of Aussies can concoct Movember and raise millions of dollars worldwide (our team raised $4,100), then why can’t women show off their short and curlies?
The only thing we couldn’t all agree on was what to call it. Many ideas were offered but little consensus was reached. I have my own favorite but there were so many good choices. So I’m opening it up to the blogosphere to vote on what to call the month in which women grow their pubic hair for charity:

You really should put a warning about that photo! I’m just glad I’m not at work today.
It’s art. That would be censorship.
yeah i agree..crap
Acccckkk! I am at work. Now I’m fired. sheesh
Sorry that Fetchtober wasn’t available.
Camel Toeber- Hilarious.
Good thing the HR lady just walked by. She voted for kicking me out of the office.
Tell her that’s not a poll choice.
Ack! And I just got canned, too. Maybe add Not Safe For Work to the headline?
Nah, it was too long as it was. Sometimes, you have to take your chances.
INPY’s idea of Januhairy was quite clever.
The logistics of moving the event to January might preclude such an idea. It was a good one, though.
That photo is haunting!
Haunting is a great adjective to describe that photo.
And it’s a good thing I work at home, lol
UPDATE: Looks like the Aussies have beaten us to it (again) and have an event they call Fanuary (fanny means muff there, something my British ex-girlfriend told me when I once mentioned a “fanny pack“).
Not a bad name, but too business-like for my tastes.
Thanks to Freckled K for the forward.
UPDATE II: Looks like there is some controversy between Fanuary and the Cancer Society charity that initially sponsored the effort.
Will there be a group shaving party?
You tell me.
DAMN YOU LEMMONEX YOU BEAT ME TO IT!!!!
Why don’t you keep it real and just call it France… nah mean?
I do know what you mean because my inner 8-year-old boy is alive and well!
Let’s just be completely vile and call it Snatchapalooza.
Is that your way of saying you’re participating?
eww….GROSS!
Fanuary is lame.
Either way, you could probably get away with not kissing The Princess for the month.
Wow. I don’t even know hot respond to that (for once).
2 votes?!?! 12%?!?1 what gives?
I don’t know what’s going on. So far, as of 3pm, I have had 216 visits. Yet only 18 people have voted. Blog readers have short attention spans, I suppose.
thank god for the mouse’s click wheel is all i gotta say…
i’m more in favor of a wet t-shirt/mud-wrestling and/or pillow fight contest if we’re going to be truly charitable. i mean, that would be a gift that kept on giving…
I think you know where I stand on this issue.
YAY! Muffotober is winning! Think of all the creative themed MUFFins we could eat.
You have been on a double entendre roll since last week. Can’t wait to see what you do with A Christmas Story (”You’ll shoot your eye out, kid!”).
Wait. I can’t really comment. I’m too busy laughing. I’m so glad I’m not at work while reading this….
Man, there sure are a lot of people not at work today! Lucky bastards.
not only am i at work… but i was telling one of my co-workers about you (she’s a fellow writer), and I sent her a link to your blog! Today, of all days! That should teach me not to brag about my brother anymore…
That is friggin’ hysterical. Just add it to the long list of Mean Things I Have Done to My Sister!
My supervisor actually caught me opening the page. I wished I still had my African powers (disappear on the spot). MUFFTOBER, MUFFTOBER, MUFFTOBER, MUFFTOBER, MUFFTOBER, MUFFTOBER, MUFFTOBER, ….., I said. Can’t wait to check hair…..lol
I’m shocked! That is the same tatoo I have on my ass.
Mufftober!!
wait, what was the question?
twataugust?
Junetang?
How about RoastBeefCurtains-ober?
What about Flufftober? Or Octopussy? Or Octmuffler? Or Octgina?
Novulva! Novulva! Novulva!
You’re welcome.
That pussyfish really is art! It’s worth the explanation I’m going to have to give the Network Administrator guy later.
I would have suggested “Snatchtober” since I’m a dirty old man, and “snatch” is a term reserved for dirty old men when referencing vagina…but since I’m late, I picked Mufftober from the available choices.
