John and Tom are exactly right. Every patient should have a choice, not just women patients. Are you guys familiar with Dr. Bernsteins blog on the subject?

Despite all of the responses, my original questions have not really been answered. Since I've never experienced such a shave, I was wondering exactly how they do it, like the sequence of events from the time she person doing the job enters your room. Like what do they use? Where do they start? Do they use lather? Electric razor? Dry razor?
Anyone had experience with getting shaved, please tell us what happened. Thanks.

Last year I had emergency surgery to remove my gall bladder, and in a prep room before going into the OR a nurse came over and said "I'm gonna shave your belly". She kept the sheet over my genitals, pushed the gown up and with a dry razor shaved an area around my middle. She did not go as far down as my pubic hair. When I awoke after the surgery I noted that I was shaved a little further down, which must have happened after I was under.
