IMO Maxi said it very well that it is satisfying to mow away a few days stubble. But wouldn't necessarily say it's easier as far as technique.

When I was learning, being so charged up on trying to become proficient, I often would do a full shave at night, and just WTG the next morning.

Maybe it was an ego thing, but figured men in a more primative enviorment, ages ago, did this routinely. I wasn't going to be beat.

Heck, if I saw Bob's post, "so easy a 12 year old girl can do it" ,back then, I might have been doing it three times a day, lol
