New Jersey: Sticking Its Nose South of the Bikini Line

No, this is not the Mad Mullahs of Iran we're talking about, or the backwards Lords of the Talliban, either. We're talking about a group of individuals more extreme, more controlling, further backwards,and much, much less intelligent:

We are talking about the political appointees manning the state's Board of Cosmetology and Hairstyling.

Attention, men of New Jersey: You may have seen your last a beautiful, thong-wearing, perfectly-groomed lady sunning herself on a Jersey beach.

In the future -if they're from Jersey - that perfect grooming may become an issue:

Things could get hairy in New Jersey this summer for women who sport revealing bikinis or a little bit less.

The painful Brazilian wax and its intimate derivatives are in danger of being stripped from salon and spa menus if a recent proposal to ban genital waxing is passed by the state's Board of Cosmetology and Hairstyling.

Cherry Hill salon owner Linda Orsuto said that women would "go ballistic" if the proposal passed....

Is it possible that the state wants to lock up the bikini-waxing trade for itself? A theory:

Orsuto said that the proposal may be the state's way of diverting a long-established salon procedure "perfected by aestheticians" to the medical community, where hair can be removed via laser treatment by dermatologists.

"We've been doing it for years," she said. "We know what we're doing."

Is this an attempt a puritinism, or a power grab of the female gentalia by the Sate of New Jersey?

Sweet Jeebus...and they say Republicans were the ones with their noses in our bedrooms!!
