I Came For Science

Welcome to I Came For Science: a show that explores all things sex, reproduction, and inclusion in STEM! Your host is Laura Sirot, a professor of Biology who has been studying animal sex for over 30 years. Join us as we normalize talking about the intersections of sex and science, as well as hearing about the lived experiences of the scientists that study it.

In this week’s episode, we’re exploring pubic hair! Why we have it, common pubic hair removal practices, and potential risks (or not) of pubic hair removal. Laura is joined by her 30-something former student, her aesthetician, and a fellow scientist to discuss all things pubic hair!
