Thread: i-stubble...Are you serious?

Just a point of order since Lincoln is shown on Mt. Rushmore with a beard. As a lawyer on the frontier and for most of his life, he was clean shaven.

Probably the worst thing about this invention is that there are dozens of other makes and models that will do the same thing - at a fraction of the cost.

People have made art and in particular images of their contemporaries for almost as long as they've been people, so we have plenty of evidence how facial hair has been changing throughout the last thousands of years.

My problem is when people take something as superficial and fleeting as shaving or fashion and make a big deal out of it, as though there's some sort of an absolute to it.

As far as ladies go, I'd submit that your sample as large as it may be isn't representative for the general population, or at the very least is not representative of the current state of the matter. I've experienced quite a bit of variety in their preferences, but then I'm more of an empiricist and don't mind experimentation

gugi first let me start this by saying I read many of your posts and like you, but it seems that you do like a good argument, as for the number of women I have been with I thank you for assuming the number is high, but if you read the whole statement I said it depends on where your face is, this might not have been clear however I think there are certain parts where pain is caused no matter what what era we are in. Secondly using Wikipedia as a source of information can be dicey at best since anyone can change it, but I will give you that most rabbis had beards especially in the old days. As far as shaving having any absolutes to it I agree what's good for one may not be good for all. And one last point getting back religious aspect, I don't think God whichever one you believe in, would have a problem with a little trimming, and running a comb through it once and a while, you can still believe in God and look good at the same time.

Not in India.

I can handle religious arguments in our beloved shaving forum. I can even bear liberals, the tea party, seedy humor, guns, alcohol, nazis, aliens, and gugi on a good day - but this istubble thing has got to go

This i-stubble thing is stupid...all I can say...

Thats YOUR opinion, and mine,however as jito pointed out there are others that have other beliefs,and there entitled to them.

In the spirit of Conair and stubble

I may never shave again: stubbly is studly. Now, where can I buy this stubblerizer and who will step forward to hone those clipper blades to meister-like clipability?

Do I have to strop it before each use?
