straigh razors are rubbish
I've been using a straight razor for a couple of months now and I have no idea what the fuss is about. I use a razor with disposable blades and use new ones each time. At first i thought it was better but the only reason seems to be the fact that you take more care over it and do it more than once (i.e. with the grain then against) I've tried the same method of doing it more than once with a normal disposable razor and if anything it was closer and definitely a lot quicker.
Prove me wrong but it just seems to be that people want it to be better. Or is it just that everyone finds it more fun using one even if it isnt as good? Not trying to be abusive, i'd be thankful for any feedback. Thanks

Are straights rubbish? Let me think for a while...
In one of the Die Hard movies (the third, I believe), John McClane (Bruce Wilis) is forced to walk through Harlem with a sandwich board that reads "I hate nï**ers".
It puzzles me why some people would want to do the cyber-equivalent of that.
What do you expect us to say? "Yeah, we're all a bunch of idiots that love a good self-fulfilling prophecy in the morning."?
Straight razor shaving is not for everyone. It doesn't make you less a man, if it's not for you. Dismissing something you don't get, does.
