    Two major thumbs up for NOT sounding like a pissy, self-centered, self-important, know-all, nobody understands, wah wah wah teenage nincompoop. There is a lot of that going around, kid. I applaud you for quietly manning up to his rules in his house, no matter how foolish it seems. Pat on the back. Beard'll be there. Let me be the first to "Thank You" here.

    Good sound (adult) thinking on your part!!! :

    Have you considered what 'may be' the next best thing and that is a DE??

    I'd run the idea past your father before you even attempt to get one!!

    Good for you for listening to your dad, however, I would have thought it would be your dad supporting your decision to use a straight and not your mom. If he even tries to get you to use an electric, be afraid...be very afraid. Who knows in the future when you master shaving with a straight, you might be able to teach your dad a new skill. +1 on the advice for getting a brush, soap, and a DE to establish the foundation for wet shaving, plus DE's are more cost effective and give a better shave than some crappy disposable.

    The value and interest of life is not so much to do conspicuous things.........as to do ordinary things with the perception of their enormous value.
