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

Could always just use a flowbee.
There are five things, above all else, that make life worth living: a good relationship with God, a good woman, good health, good friends, and a good cigar.

Only two defining forces have ever offered to die for you, Jesus Christ and the American Soldier.  One died for your soul, the other for your freedom.

In case anyone on here is too young to know of the flowbee, or too senile to remember:

I love that the website is still active and has stuck with the period look/photos.

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.
It was the shortest argument ever for me, but she was MOST persuasive. Plus it reminds wife that I have options and helps keep the balance of power

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.

Trim.  I'm a hirsute dude, so any shorter than a trim and it would look like I have a -very- weird bald spot.

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]

I came of age before all this manscaping/shaving. Women used to just trim enough so nothing was sneaking out in the swimsuit.

I remember the first time I was introduced to a woman who shaved down there, freaked me the hell out. I think it was back in 1994 or 1995.

How did that work? Were you at a party and a friend introduced you and said, "Charby, this is Melissa. Melissa, show Charby how you shave"?

No, more like she decided to follow me back to my apartment after bar close and when I rounded third base, the field was bare.

Makes sliding in to home a little easier.
If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or your arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen.

When my wife says she needs a trim I tell her "I'll go get the weed whacker..."

In general, shaving it all is going to look weird on any guy who's not a serious bodybuilder.  General advice I've found, and follow as needed, is trim everything to a #3, use a #1 or #2 closer in, and if you really want to put in the work, clean shave only the shaft.  Otherwise, just use the trimmer bare.

Use a good conditioner.  Failing that, use Downy.

No, I think theories are correct, that he is a Texas Lowline Angus/Herford crossbred gomer bull.  [popcorn]

More like the skin around the base that gets pulled upward during certain activities.

Or maybe that's just me.  I don't exactly check anybody else's wang base.

Well when walking through the words shirtless could get you confused for Bigfoot, life comes with certain special challenges.
