I think this is an earlier demonstration of what has now evolved into the Pretty-Boy culture we now have. At first it was just Pop-stars who took such time and effort to look good, then the footballers.

Now we've got Rugby Union Players like Gavin Henson who admit to shaving their legs before a game.

Rugby League the last bastion of the Real Man ;)

He does what!!? :eek:

Can't say I approve. Not one bit, in fact. :nono:
 
If you are not an Olympic swimmer or a homosexual, you have NO EXCUSE for shaving your legs! :p

What is the world coming to...

Or a professional bicycle rider...

EDIT: It's bicycle.

What! That isn't your photo? I'm all disillusioned now.

Although you've posted your pic in members photos I still think you look like your avatar.

As for me, I sometimes shave before going out. It makes no difference; it still looks like 5 o'clock shadow unless I have a careful wet shave, so I put up with it mostly.
I have even, once or twice, removed my torn T-shirts and put on something a bit smarter before going out. Of course nowadays I wear something smarter usually, because wearing rags tends to scare the subjects away.
 
Bah! My entire grooming arsenal consists of:

1) a towel
2) a razor (non-electric)
3) soap
4) deodorant

I don't even need shampoo anymore ever since I shaved my head. And I can shave my face anywhere even without a mirror. :smug:

:nope:
Water is enough.

Soap is enough.

An alternative is:
5) nailclippers and
6) small pair of scissors for trimming nose hair.
 
Why bother shaving, just wait till the hair grows longer, and PULL IT OUT!!!
 
You know what's funny? I read the thread title, and even before I even looked at the author, I knew it was Rambuchan...

OT: Mathematicians neither shave nor wash! Mwahahahahahaha! The weeks I have my daughter, I do not shave. The weeks I have my girlfriend, I shave because of the burns it incurs.

He made this admission on the Jonathon Ross Show. Can't say I approve of the fella anyway but this kind of behaviour is very wrong :shake:

He also said "when I feel I look good, I play well". Prop forwards around the world, rev your engines.
 
Modern materialism and the feminization of the modern male.

I can't decide which is worse.

For the record I have exactally ONE tolietry that I use regularly : Soap (Dr. Bronner's brand).

I shave with it, I wash with it and... what else does a real man need to do?

Oh yeah, I have a brush too.
