Thread: My Son

I have to agree with Alembic. I have two daughters and I hope that they learn to shave with straight or de because of my influence on my wife. Never really wanted a son until I started shaving with a straight. Now I feel left out. I suppose when each of the girls gets married that their husbands will eventually want to shave with a straight....if I don't kill him with it first!!!
But, DAMN, how awesome is it to be a father to two wonderful, beautiful girls. Cheers!!!

I have two grandsons, but at 1 and 2, they're a long way from needing to shave... My oldest grand daughter had watched me shave, and that actually keeps her quiet for a bit. She's 5...

'Bout the best I can hope for, but I reckon that their Daddies will already use one, which leads me too..

My daughters will probably laugh at any boyfriend who shaves in the whimpy mach3/fusion fashion. At the least they will probably doubt their manliness.
It's more awesome having three daughters, but it would be the most awesome to have a son to pass on some skills for their own personal use.

Luckily my 4 ear old shows a great interest in watching me shave. He loves when i mumble "funny things" under my breath. I had asked him if he would like to learn to shave like daddy when he get older, he cant wait. Not sure if its for the shaving or the swearing. I told him i'd take my Torrey and shine it up for him, and get it looking brand new for when he's ready. Now whenever he see's it he tells mom... "daddy's using MY razor" Needless to say the Preschool teacher gives me a weird look. I'm just happy to pass it on.

Sounds like your daughters are fairly young. Let me know if your opinion changes when they're my daughter's age (18 in a week and a half). They seem to undergo some kind of out of body experience during that time . All fun aside, she's a good kid. My 11 year old son is the resident propeller head. He wants a poster of the Periodic Table of the Elements in his room. This morning he was watching me shave (4/8 Eyre round tip and SCS New Spice cream) and wanted to know when he would be shaving. I told him I started @ 16. His reply was "yuck." I've got a lot of work ahead of me w/ him.
