I usually get the bathroom to myself so I have not had to worry about my wife coming in and disturbing my concentration. However the other day when I was using my Feather she did begin a conversation and not wanting to offend I entered into dialogue. About that time I sliced off a chunk just above my lips. Bled like crazy. Don't think I want to lose my concentration again like that particularly with a Feather.

Thanked: 0Shavers heaven!!!
I tried shaving in the bathroom I shared with my wife. After the sneers and smirks at all my wonderful paraphanelia I new I had to take action. It's just me and my wife and we live in a mobile home. The "spare" bathroom was a junk room since our son went into the service. Walla!!! Shaving Valhalla!!! First I ripped up two old microfich machines and got out the 2 optical quality mirrors, I took a hammer and busted the peice of crap that was in the medicine chest and promptly hung my two "real" mirrors 90 degrees apart . Then I hung 7 straps all over. Disabled shower so moisture is not a problem. Drug in shelves and loaded them with mugs, brushes ,soaps, lotions and potions. Next came folding tables with silverware chests full of razors. Another table for hones and paddle strops. Arm loads of barber towels and huge hamper. Now when I shave I ENJOY it. My wife calls it my "shaving ghetto" but I love it. I only have one demand in my house.... absolute quiet while I'm shaving! No conversation...no loud thumps or bumps. For that consideration I never interuppt my wifes phone or computer time. My friends love it!
I wish every one could experience un encumbered shaving bliss.
The invisible edge,

Thanked: 1Getting rid of the female usually turn out cheaper though ......
And on conversations ... I usually would get back at them by starting at 3 am (the conversation). Worked like a charm.
Yes am happily single now.

Could you imagine starting a conversation with your wife while she was shaving her legs with a str8.

Setting Rules
I told my girl when I was getting ready for my first shave that it would be a good idea, particularly early on, if she didn't distract me while I was shaving. This she promptly ignored walking past at her leisure and starting conversations. I dealt with each issue as it arose ... "I'm gonna shave now. Do you need to use the bathroom at all before I do?" ... "Announce your need to enter and wait for my agreement or I will get very mad with you." ... "We'll discuss this later, I'm concentrating on not killing myself right now." ... etc. As a result I get my way on it now.
It should be mentioned that I have developed a special relationship with my gal based on absolute brutal honesty. That's the kind of guy I am. "Yes, that makes you look too fat" ... "Why are you being such a bitch now?" ... etc. If she doesn't like it, I ask if she'd respect me more if I simply lied to her and told her whatever I thought she wanted to hear. She of course can't agree with that to her satisfaction and we're at a stalemate. One where I have space for shaving and such and where she can play the same cards with me. Nine years and counting.

PS On our recent trip to Ottawa we did have to share the bathroom to get ready and it was nerve racking as all hell having her over my sholder for half the shave. Definitely better without her there.
