What does your doctor think about you using a straight razor? I used to use blades, but my doc suggested I switch to electric because of the blood thinners. Switched for awhile, but went back to the blades.

Screw them.

Oh and Gillette is owned by Procter & Gamble. Remember that at the store.

It's VERY hard to NOT buy P&G. I buy very few toiletries....Ivory bar soap, Suave shampoo, Crest or Colgate toothpaste and razors, depending on which is on sale. I ditched Nike, but I'm too set in my ways now to find new personal care items.

I will make sure I try to avoid Gillette razors, though. That's just pitiful, pissing of the majority of your customers.

He is aware and hasn’t said anything. Styptic pen and alum block take care of the occasional nick. Electric razors eat me up!

I no longer get razor burn, bumps, ingrown hair. I shave daily and wear a tie to work - so for me, it's worth it.

I'm on Commundin and when I shave I use a electric. Course I normally look like Grizzly Adams, with a long beard and side burns/tash. Long retired and unless going some place where I have to look civilized I do not do much shaving. Especially during the nasty winter up here in the mountains having all that face fur does keep you warmer!

I take to just using electric razor on my head/neck, because hair is SO thin, it's not worth growing, so when it hits ~1/2 inch on the sides, out comes the trimmer, about once a month or so......I wear a ballcap or MAGA hat to keep head warm, especially in winter, also keep glare off my glasses, AM/PM hours are the worst for me when driving, Florida being flat and all, the glare is beyond sublime.....I just not used to nite driving anymore I notice, also....not that I give a shit.....really....just slower than usual.....

Dixie, at first I didn't see the titties because I'm not used to them being that small.

My doc wanted me to switch to electric because of blood thinners (Coumadin), but he said if you must use blades, shave in the shower. So I stuck with blades and shave in the shower.

I use safety razor and shave in the shower. I honestly feel like it is a closer shave

I'll be the Lone Ranger and say I don't have an issue with the ad. It clearly has NOTHING to do with razors, but should we bully? Should we accost women? Treat them like property? The message to me was about maturity, not masculinity.

I'm more pissed about their hypocrisy than their message.

i concur.

we tend to judge people on their outward appearance. we have beauty pageants, best looking gal wins a prize. meanwhile, the plain gal is at home with her cat or husband, making dinner, taking care of the house and children and husband, but she never wins any awards from society.

so, yes, men can be blamed for some of this. and with the pic you show, women too can share some blame for not guarding what is precious. they are too quick to hop from bed to bed, too quick to put on demeaning attire (like those skin tight body suits).

lot of blame to go around. all i can do is do what is right.

we have the friday 5 here. a collection of pretty women. but you'll never see the wednesday 7 - a collection of good hearted women who raise Godly children, cook a mean dinner, and love their husbands unconditionally. you can't see that, because that's inside them.
