Duct tape on pubic hair...wow. I don't think there is words to explain how much that would hurt.
Oh, that hurts a lot. Think bikini wax. Good times, good times.
I just want to add that though I would NOT like to shave my face, what about the pits? I hate shaving my pits. When I lived in Northern Cali, I let them grow long and free...but that makes more of a statement here on the East coast than I'd really like to say!
And Griff, I'm glad you have a comeback for when your buddies tease you. But just be prepared, I'm sure there's more to come!

I hate that, too... if I shave them every day (which I have to during the summer.. or at least every other day) they get all red and bumpy. So, my choices are, red bumps or visible stubble. I can't win! At least in the winter I shave them every 3 or 4 days and the skin stays healthy.
I thought about waxing... for about 5 seconds, because just thinking about it was painful, lol. I know some people do that, but ouch!
Just watch out for shaving if you have goosebumps on your legs! Ouch!!! It feels like you are shaving with a butter knife.
Does anyone notice if you shave your legs smooth and then later on if you get really cold and have goosebumps on your legs, they are no longer smooth? Some friends and I think goosebumps might push out the leg hair a little bit, just enough so you no longer have that silky smooth skin feeling.
Shaving makes you feel SO clean! Ya know what is even better - and worth the torture? Waxing under the arms. :P
Griff, you are just too cute! I keep trying to convince my DH to let me shave his legs and he just says "No!"
Becareful shaving behind your knees! That is a tricky spot for me. Luckily, being a blond, I only have to shave my legs every couple weeks. My leg hair grows back so slow and so blond and unprickly, even my DH doesn't notice when I don't shave.
The down side to being so blond? I can't tan worth a darn. I just blister....
Oh man--- I remember the first time I ever shaved my legs--- I got into bed that night and slid between the sheets and it was like orgasmic... wow...
Sometimes in the winter I let it go way too long just to get that same feeling again... but alas, never quite the same way it was so many years ago.
Too funny though--- I've seen guys with shaved legs--- one of the oddest things ever.
But, hey... it's better than tearing your hair out from the roots every day, right?
Oh, yeah--- I grew up shaving with disposable yellow Gilette razors-- men's.... I kinda always figured you HAD to bleed when shaving (or, what about that tell-tale STRIP of skin you peel off the front of your shin bone the first time you're excited to shave?) Anyhow--- I've been using the original Venus razor for years now... LOVE LOVE LOVE it... on every little bit on my body... have never bled ONCE in years. No matter where I use it. Shaving takes half the time now b/c I'm not in fear of cutting open my skin each swipe!
