A Mans question.

My Brother in law was here earlier, I hadn't seen him in Months and he was sporting a neat grey beard, he looked like James Coburn in that film 'Our Man Flint'. The Men in my family were never very hairy, facial or chest wise that is. I remember years ago when a chap came up to me in a pub and asked if I wanted to buy some good quality razor blades on the cheap, he was lost for words when I told him I didn't shave, I was in my early twenties at the time. My older Brother was in the Irish Guards (UK) and every morning he would go through the shaving routine with all the other lads, only he had no blade in the razor.
How old were you when you started to shave?.

Always being of the atheletic type I started when I was twelve, mind you being fair hair it did not stand out much and I could now get away with only shaving every other day if I wanted to.

Re: A Mans question.

It seems you lads started very young, remember the Mac's Smile slotted blades?. I had my legs waxed to raise funds for the local youth club in 2000, very painful, I think I have a photo of the event somewhere, if I can find it I'll stick it up but it's not a pretty sight. Some other chaps had their beards shaved off. Funny thing, the hair on me legs never grew back again, ah well, hair today gone tomorrow.
