Funny you should say that Sushee; I was watching Embarrassing Teen Bodies the other day, and Dr Pixie was walking around with a mannequin on which she had bestowed a rather full merkin. She was asking 18/19 year old boys and girls what they thought was a normal amount of hair, and what was the healthiest amount of hair. Not one of them left it as is, a couple removed the bikini line, but the majority gave the mannequin a full brazilian - they all thought it was the healthiest and cleanest option.

FWIW, Dr Pixie said it doesn't really matter, but obviously you've gotta look out for ingrown hairs causing a problem if you're removing hair.
