"Manscaping"?

Is that the current euphemism for "personal hygiene and grooming"?

Very personal grooming.

While I wouldn't go so far as saying you need to keep things picture perfect or nekkid, being well groomed down there is appreciated by your lady friend (s)

I discursively analysis online electronic talk in response to an advert promoting male groin grooming showing the complex ways in which men discursively negotiate their interest in this non-typical gender practice.

Um, you really ought not admit that in public.

The nurses 2/3 manscaped me as a surgery prep when I had the hernia fixed.  I can't imagine wanting to that "grooming" on a regular basis.  At the follow-up with the PA she said that most of the men they see that get that surgery say the regrowth is one of the worst parts of the recovery.  I wouldn't say it was the worst part, but it was top 5 for sure.  It did exacerbate some of the worse aspects.

For the invisible things of him since the creation of the world are clearly seen, being perceived through the things that are made, even his everlasting power and divinity, that they may be without excuse. Because knowing God, they didn’t glorify him as God, and didn’t give thanks, but became vain in their reasoning, and their senseless heart was darkened. Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools.

To those of you who mock manscaping I have a question.  Do you mow your lawn and trim your hedges?  Or do you let that sh*t get out of control?  And what do you prefer in women?  A little grooming or some late 60's "just got back from Woodstock" freedom bush?   [popcorn]

There is no fixing stupid. But, you can line it up in front of a wall and offer it a last smoke.

There is no such thing as a "transgender" person.  Only mental illness that should be discouraged.

When I'm going to see someone, I do. Not with a razor, though, as I cut myself too easily too many times. I use a hair remover.

The women appreciate it. They don't like having hair stuck in their teeth. ;)

Sometimes I might trim it back just a little with scissors, but that's it. Hair on a woman doesn't actually bother me. It's really still a fairly new thing.

It is much more powerful to seek Truth for one's self.  Seeing and hearing that others seem to have found it can be a motivation.  With me, I was drawn because of much error and bad judgment on my part. Confronting one's own errors and bad judgment is a very life altering situation.  Confronting the errors and bad judgment of others is usually hypocrisy.

I introduced a man or two to the world of landscaping with the same argument.

And, for what it's worth, it really is true.

If there really was intelligent life on other planets, we'd be sending them foreign aid.

Conservatives see George Orwell's "1984" as a cautionary tale.  Progressives view it as a "how to" manual.

My wife often says to me, "You are evil and must be destroyed." She may be right.

Liberals believe one should never let reason, logic and facts get in the way of a good emotional argument.

There's a barber here in town who does a superb straight razor shave. He drinks, though, and sometimes has the shakes. Want his phone number?

This invention fixes that problem. Plus it has a back attachment/handle that works great...  So I hear.
