The Man Thread

[Himu]

Okay, this thread is for general man stuff we probably wouldn't want to ask people about in real life.

Like, right now I'm trying to find a good way to trim my body hair. I'm a fairly hairy guy on my shoulders, arms, and chest. I don't want to shave it because I think that's for fags and metrosexuals. I have a decent razor for trimming, but I'm having trouble coming up with a good shape.

Should I just keep the hair aligned or what? What about my arms? My hair is curly being a black man, so my arm hair is all over the place? Any good way to maintain my arm hair without shaving it all off?

[Powerslave]

laser that shit?

[Fresh Prince]

This is like the least manliest thread ever.

[Himu]

Lasers sound dangerous.

[Akala]

Lasers sound dangerous.

[WrikaWrek]

I waxed my arms half a year ago. Hurts like shit, never again, fuck that women are crazy.

As far as trimming go, i don't know man look, i trim my balls, i trim my thighs....

I shave my chest sometimes, shit Brad Pitt and Morgan Freeman both did it in Se7en, and i ain't gonna pretend to be more man than them. But sometimes i just pluck it out, that's right, pluck that shit out, doesn't leave marks, takes much more time to grow back, etc. Could've be hard to do if you have tons of hair on that areas, which i don't.

I have a lot of hair on my legs and forearms though, it's a pain in the ass, and it's ugly. I'm thinking of using those automatic razors they use to cut your hair, and if i don't like it i'll shave fuck it, and then i'll just shave it off.

And get up with the times dude, girls dig it, so it's not distinguished effete fellows shit. You can say what you want, i was fuckin' 2 hours ago, and she liked my shaved chest, so fuck hair man, fuck hair. I ain't supposed to look like a gorilla.

danger = manly

[Kestastrophe]

I've had lasers in my ass before 

Damn, I'm thankful that I don't have body hair though 

[Himu]

I'm not shaving my chest or arm hair. That's gay ass shit.

I want to appreciate my manhood without looking like a Sasquatch. I see nothing wrong with controlled body hair. I just want to do it right.

[BlueTsunami]

I wish I had body hair. I guess its good if your a slim teen but as you hit your mid twenties, you're expected of certain things. It especially looks weird if you're trying to rock the beard with a baby smooth bodeh.

[WrikaWrek]

How the fuck is it gay? Seriously, stop being such a child.

You are cutting hair, there's nothing gay about cutting hair.

[Himu]

Shaving the chest so that it's bare is definitely homo or metro.

[Fresh Prince]

Wrikawrek is sadly right.
It's like beards. There's the manly thing and there's the getting laid thing.

[Himu]

So I should just shave my body hair instead of trimming?

[Kestastrophe]

Do you have a unibrow Himu?

[duckman2000]

I have alopecia universalis, so hair is totally lol to me. Although it's damned annoying when you suddenly grow a stray patch of hair on your sack.

[WrikaWrek]

You better be rockin that beard and that unibrow if you are so worried about metro stuff.

Dude maybe you use cream, maybe you arrange your hair to look good, maybe you shave your chest because it's full of swirls and twirls and it looks ugly as fuck when you are rocking the opened shirt, maybe you dress good, that doesn't make you a cigarillo. Look, unless you are rocking some badass chest hair like hugh Jackman, take that shit out.

[Himu]

I don't have a unibrow.

[Kestastrophe]

You don't have to be all guido'd out in order to not look like a complete neanderthal, unless thats the look you're goin for

[Fresh Prince]

Honestly Himu from the pictures I've seen nobody is going to mistake you for being metorsexual or flamobantly gay if you did shave or not.

[recursivelyenumerable]

I have a fair amount of hair on my back    I'd like to shave it but uh it's kind of hard to reach.

[Bildi]

I have some hair on my back and shoulders.  My last girlfriend liked it and usually convinced me not to shave it but even so I'm very self-conscious about it.

So I've been shaving it again in recent months.  It's hard to reach the bits around the middle of my back of course so when my mum comes to town I get her to whip it off with the electric shaver.

Chest I leave hairy and mega-manly.

your head is more accessible

how about you start there

[Madrun Badrun]

duct tape the razor to a hockey stick, also replace the razors motor with the motor from a mini bike.    That's right I'm making this a real man's man thread.

[cool breeze]

I'm persian, which means I'm hairy like a motherfucker.  I have the bodygroom thing and used it once; it wasn't bad, just too much effort to put into weekly/monthly rotation.  One day I'm gonna fill my bathtub with nair and see how that rolls.

and not about body hair, but does anyone use an electric razor for their face? shaving is fucking awesome and I don't have the capacity to grow a good beard, so it's either looking dirty all the time or shaving all the time.  Both suck and I hate them.  I'm really white too so even with the closest shave the areas still look more dark compared to my forehead or hairless areas.

[Bildi]

I've used an electric razor for a few years.  I hate shaving and even though the electric doesn't get as close as a good manual blade it's a lot easier and I never cut myself so I'm happy.

To really man it up, I'd use a 6' crow bar instead of a hockey stick, and a bare razor instead of a pussy little face razor.  And then I'd do my balls with it once I'm done with my back.

[Himu]

If i've got a thick beard I use an electric razor to trim it down and then use a traditional razor to shave it all off.

any recommendations on good razors?

 

[drew]

i barely have any body hair

master race etcetera etc

make sure you marry a hungarian broad so your spawn will have as good of genes as me

[WrikaWrek]

Used Razor level 1 on my upper, right leg. FFFFFUUuuuuuuuuuu, it's a trainwreck, it's too close to the skin, and i didn't know when to stop, shit. At least it's still above the shorts line.

Used level 2 on left leg, that's the sweetspot. It's kinda funny though, it's like one leg got a buzz cut, and the other was like "F that".

[Bildi]

any recommendations on good razors?

For the last three or four years I've used what is probably the cheapest Philips.  Something like this:

http://www.amazon.com/Philips-Norelco-7310/dp/B001HOKY22/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1241746917&sr=8-2

I'm sure the more expensive ones cut closer but when freshly shaven I've never had anyone complain about getting beard rash from me.  If I shave in the morning, I have sufficient stubble to give beard rash by the evening regardless of shaving method.  But at least with the electric I can give it a quick run over in the evening if need be.

My face looks much the same as when I use a manual razor despite the electric not getting as close.

tiger balm

I'm an expert at this.  I nair with flair. 

[AdmiralViscen]

Does it sting the asshole or cooter if applicable?

[Madrun Badrun]

You don't get it on your asshole.  That shouldn't be done. 

[AdmiralViscen]

Seems risky

[drew]

no listen to me on this, trust me, been there done that

heres a picture of what the bottle looks like, you can find it at any supermarket



also rub this on your balls to get rid of unwanted hair

[Madrun Badrun]

That's why you go to nair school and get your two year nair degree and become a certified nairer.

nair has a awful overpowering melon smell

i would rather have a hairy ass then smell like nair

tiger balm even smells minty and refreshing!

[AdmiralViscen]

I'll lick my fingers when I'm done!

Not to mention the potential for an allergic reaction, which would leave you with an ass like a baboon.

I use this scented stuff that makes me smell like strawberries and burning. 

Also Drewsy must have some weak ass hair to be able to get rid of it with tiger balm.

Will do. I fully support anyone encouraging me to marry someone from an Eastern European country.

Yes it's an evolved mating practice.  Exposing your ass at minus 40C is a sign of virility and strength.  It kills the weaker males. 

[drew]

we even have somewhat of a natural tan!

[brawndolicious]

The bubble-gum butt look to me as a hetero, definitely sounds more disgusting than a hairy asscrack and it is most definitely less masculine.

I don't know how you guys got into this scorched earth look but if you have a smooth chest or back, you're not manly.  Not that there's anything wrong with that lifestyle choice but it's totally faggoty.

If i've got a thick beard I use an electric razor to trim it down and then use a traditional razor to shave it all off.

same.  you can't get much control with an electric razor.

an indian would say that

thanks

yeah, I think I'm gonna give an electric shaver a go. 

[Human Snorenado]

Ok, the tiger balm website says it's for aches n pains and shit, not for getting hair off your balls or ass crack.  What's up with that?

[Madrun Badrun]

It is for muscles and you need to have weak ass hair for it to do anything to it.
