Thoughts on pubic hair?

Since I noticed the first few public hairs when I was 13 I began shaving it off. I’m now 27 and have been shaving for many many years. This last month I’ve been lazy and decided not to shave. I’ve been having some bleeding problems so I haven’t had sex with my husband because he’s grossed out by blood. Which so fair. However, we have a sitter tonight and are having a date night. I didn’t plan to shave. I’ve learned to like the hair. I don’t have itchy red razor burn or anything anymore. It is what it is. Anyway, my husband made a comment today about how I should be ready for sex tonight and I need to be shaved or he’s not sleeping with me. What are your thoughts? Do I need to shave for him or should I tell him I have decided to keep the hair?
