When you have such copious amounts of pubic hair, that you have to reach around your bush to pull your monkey, causing an inconvenient delay.
Big Easy: Yo bro, my wife won’t let me smash so I’ve had to tug on my rope lately. It’s also no shave November, so I’ve had to beat around the bush.
Tyrant: When you say beating around the bush, you mean like delaying the shaving of your man shrubs?
Big Easy: No I literally have to beat around my bush. I got more hair down there than Rapunzel.
Tyrant: Sounds like a hairy situation.

When a girl is going to give you dome, but she takes your pants off only to find you have a wicked groin beard. She gets grossed out, so decided to just jerk you instead. Hence, she is beating around the bush.
yeah dog i didnt think my slampiece would mind if I didnt clean up down there, but after she took my pants off, she ended up just beating around the bush.
