For the rest, I make some awesomely articulate speech that makes them rethink the importance of appearances forever. Heh. I don't know if it'll ever happen, though!Allerleirahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07913518795446410491noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-791101537367433738.post-82300486978588309412009-11-08T19:50:44.178-07:002009-11-08T19:50:44.178-07:00Hi, and thank you so much for commenting!

It's still my preferred method, though, and I'm just hoping I'll find some magic combination that'll create better results.Allerleirahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07913518795446410491noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-791101537367433738.post-14167680011191426902009-11-08T02:53:39.112-07:002009-11-08T02:53:39.112-07:00Al, thank you for this post. You have pretty much ...Al, thank you for this post. You have pretty much put in words all my thoughts. <br />As you know, I read these comments, too. First, I get annoyed by reading articles/advice/ask betty sections because they are so often written by "ladies" who dont have a clue. But ok, let's not expect editors of cosmopolitan put an ad in the paper: looking for a hirsuite chick who will provide advice. But then i ... always... stupidly... scroll down to the comments. And then I am not annoyed any more. Then I am just sad. Because the editors are in their own imaginary world where everybody looks and behaves the same (if not, they shall be prescribed something for it). But those who comment... They live in the real world, with real people with diseases and uglinesses... and THEY say these awful things... I am just physically unable to understand why looks matter so much. ...<br />Shaving shmaving. Its not about shaving, plucking, lasering, eating pills for hormones (it's been a couple of weeks, my boobs are still small, by the way lol) - its about the fact that we should not be having these discussions because we should be able to go out in short skirts in the summer without spending hours on cosmetical actions beforehand and without attracting attention of everybody in sight. <br />Do you know whats wrong with all these women who post this moronic bullshit? They are scared. They spend so much time on shaving their legs and armpits they believe so much they should that they got this weird stuff stuck in their minds and there is no hope for them... The stuff is: we all need to look the same. You different? haha, you dont belong. Scary.<br />Funny thing with men. Two reaction types, I can identify. One among those that are planning to have sex with me/or observe me (office) as an object - let's not go into that now. And the other ones, the "just friends" ones. Actually, those very few who do or might know - they really couldnt care less. They even like it because if they want to come over for a weekend they wont get paranoid about looking all smooth themselves (they know i wont!). It just doesnt matter to them as long as I treat them right and am a loyal friend. Doesnt work like this with girls... Well, apart from the italian girl, who is an exception, the girls always have some good advice, some - oh maybe that would help... Oh, Im rumbling on... <br />Anne's post made me cry, too... <br /><br />I am planning to become a brave person (in some million years maybe) and just be able to tell EVERYBODY. Like a preselection process: hi, my name is sophie and i am disgustingly hairy - if they keep talking to me, it means there's a chance that are of this rare, almost extinct specie who thinks for themselves... if their face goes funny, I wont waste my time on finding out what kind of "people" they are just to get disappointed in the end.<br /><br />Harsh?

You rock my socks. And my beard. :) I'm especially interested in face shaving. I've used an electric razor for years, but it's so ineffective. Hopefully, I'll get enough tips here to make the switch. Thank you SO MUCH for hosting about hirsutism. I'm excited to read your posts!Becky Framehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03962268347520900807noreply@blogger.com
