Pubic hair grooming for men seems to be growing in popularity. A recent Men's Journal article addressed this very issue:

For PEers, trimming pubic hair has benefits on several levels. First of all, trimming back all that hair makes your package look bigger and more powerful, as mentioned in the Men's Journal article. Second, removing shaft hair and the hair around the base of the penis makes jelquing and stretching much more comfortable and promotes a better seal for pumping. Third, shaving the scrotum makes cock ring wear much more comfortable and enjoyable--no more pulled or pinched hairs.
Over the years, I have developed a personal grooming routine for pubic hair. I don't use any chemicals like Nair or similar products. The only equipment needed are a pair of tweezers, a razor, shaving cream, scissors, an electric beard and moustache trimmer, and a fine-toothed comb. The three key words to the process are "pluck, shave and trim."
1. Pluck
Every 3 or 4 days, using a pair of tweezers, I pluck all the shaft hair and hair around the base of penis. I like to pluck out a 1/2" margin around the base of the penis. I have found that shaving the shaft and base makes it very itchy, especially around the base of the penis. Tweezing these hairs is much longer lasting. Over time, your shaft hair will grow back finer and finer. For you pantywaists who think it's going to hurt, get over it! Once you're used to the sensation, it doesn't hurt at all.
2. Shave
Every two weeks, I take my trusty Gillette Mach III razor into the shower to give the twins a much-deserved shave. Using my wife's Skintimate shave gel, I spread the lather all over my scrotum and "taint" and carefully shave the scrotum, including the taint. I also like to shave carefully around my anus, so that I am nice and clean for the occasional rim job! I like to shave the entire scrotal sac, up to where the scrotum meets the body.
3. Trim
Some of photos posted on this site show the pubic hair above the penis and balls reduced to a mere stubble, with lots of skin visible. I am not a fan of that look. Using a pair of beard/moustache scissors, I cut the remaining pubic hair down to approximately 1 1/4" in length. I like to have hair covering where the scrotum meets the body. I think that it looks much better and more natural covered by the pubic patch. Using the electric beard and moustache trimmer at its closest setting (without the beard attachment), I trim off the hair on the top part of my upper thighs, down to just below where my package ends. I also trim where the legs meet the pelvic structure. This makes the entire package more prominent. After dampening the pubic patch of hair, I trimmed the remaining hair into an arch shape that nicely frames dick and balls. I also use the trimmer to trim down the hair on my abdomen. The reason for using the electric beard and moustache trimmer is to avoid razor bumps and all the issues associated with them. Once the arch-shaped (or whatever shape you choose) patch of pubic hair is defined, you can use the razor to get a cleaner line, if desired. Use caution with the razor on pelvic skin, it's easy to get razor bumps. That being said, I've never had any problem with razor bumps on my scrotum. I do the trim portion of my routine, once or twice a week or whenever it starts to get stubbly.
That's all there is to it. It may seem like a lot of time is involved, but you don't have to do it all at once. Once you get your look how you want it, it's fairly easy to maintain. You will feel sexier, your significant other will love you for it, you may even get more oral!
