Beard

Sometimes I figure it must be a bane for men to shave. Afterall, having to lather your face up and set blades against one's skin is not what someone would naturally call, pleasurable. In this sense, its not as tedious for females (of course if we're considering area space then we have more to deal with). I shave about once in 3 days, that way I can fully appreciate my smooth and glowing legs, thanks to the sparkles in popular body lotions today promising to naturally rid one of white pastey skin just by daily moisturization.

However, 7 days of not shaving one's face has proven irritable to me. Initially, it was just laziness and complancency. But after 4 days, Dan, my bf, declared that it was official - he was going to grow a beard.

You know, there is some merit to those cliched shaving commercials that plague North American television - a seductive woman comes from behind a well-built sexy shirtless man, touches his chin and displays an expression of approval. Women do love shaved chins.

Really, how many men can actually pull off a moustache, let alone a beard? George Clooney, Sean Connery.. I can't think of anymore (this goes to show that since I can't name many, there probably aren't many.) Especially if you're Chinese. If you're Chinese, you would probably be thankful that you are able to grow what might resemble a moustache, since most can only sprout disappointingly thin, wispy , erratic hair. 2 days ago, my dad praised him for his beard and he talked about how it was difficult for him to grow one. So I gather growing a beard is an element in building a man's pride.

My experiences from kissing a man with a beard: chaffing, being prickled on the way to kissing him on the lips, a static charge from going close to his beard, being prickled when I tuck my head into his neck when I sleep. So, I now slightly purse my lips to effectively target his. Joyous.
