Thread: What do your wives think of this hobby?

For the still married guys, what do your wives think of you using a straight razor? Do they think you have lost your mind or are they supportive?
Do they ever watch you shave?

1. she thinks i am sick
2. she thinks i have more stuff and take more pains than a woman
3. she thinks i have watched queer eye for the straight guy too much (which i can't because our cable channel messes up bravo).
4. she is so beyond it, she asked me not to bring her shave cream samples to smell and she does not even wanna see any packages anymore unless they have shoes in there for her

OK so I am not alone.
Actually since I don't cut myself up too much she is getting used to it.
My kids now rate my shaves everyday. They also point out where I didn't get close enough.
However my wife still refers to it as "Your shaving thing!!" :lol:

Thankfully I'm not married. But my lady friend thinks it's:
1. to dangerous
2. takes to much time
3. just another of my screwy hobbies that will pass (she's wrong)
4. to expensive ( I keep telling her it will even out over time because I'm not buying disposables, then I buy another str8 razor)

She doesn't say much about it any more because she likes the close shaves (stuble hurts her thighs).

At first my wife thought I was crazy and worried every time I shaved. She has accepted it now and likes the baby butt smooth feel it leaves on my cheeks.

She does refuse to sniff any of the aftershaves I buy too.

She is also wondefully supportive despite her initial aversion to all this. She poits out razors when we are out antique shopping and asks me ocsionally about my newest favorites and eBay finds.

I have been very lucky to have someone who has supported my on every hair brained scheme and endevour I have undertaken. Razors, motorcycles, sports cars, etc....

My wife loves it. She is really into the close shaves and now loves me to SCENT UP prior to dooing the deed. You cannot beat that in a relationship!

She loves it. In fact, she took one of my razors and just started on her legs like a pro. But she's into cool stuff like woodworking and the like, so I'm not surprised she digs it.

Larry,

That is a great picture of the two of you. Where were you?

Off Maui. Thanks!

My wife could care less anymore. She was afraid I would kill myself or something by cutting my throat. She even let me shave her legs(once). She told me as long as I shave she doesn't care how. I guess I could shave with a shard of glass and it wouldn't matter as long as no trips to the hospital
