Ladies, does your man's stubble work for you?

i hate shaving. i have a date tonight and im thinking of not bothering to shave. she better like it.

You sure are making an effort.

i might pluck one hair.

playing hard to get huh?

I absolutely fucking loathe shaving.

i quite like it, i stopped for other reasons

haven't shaved for about 7 months now, been using the lovely trimmer i got as a christmas present, much better for yr skin and appearance (no horrible cut marks or abrasions, plus groovy stubble)

i tried to wax my facial hair once several years back but i didnt wanna get proper strips so just used weak ones which of course didnt work.

i might stipulate that she shave somewhere on her body just to make things fair.

She probably already did.

begin as you mean to continue. if you don't like shaving and don't often do it, there's no point pretending you will in the future. might as well be upfront with her about it!

being upfront is a bit overrated.

That's true.

Be deceitful.

i like to create the image of being loaded then slowly unravel the layers as i get to know a person to show i am in fact on the poverty line.

there's an in-between level of a few days of stubble that's good (past prickly, but not yet a beard). if you are not there, shave!

i didnt shave.

i wanna shave her though.

(and no not in a bearded lady way)

;)

I don't like the feel of it. This could be because when I was a small child my dad did this 'tickle torture' equivalent where he's rub his stubbly face all over my non-stubbly face. It was called 'getting whiskered.'

Looks okay if you're Hugh Laurie but not that many duders can pull it off.

I'm not a ladies, so.

I prefer a cooter with a beard to a shaven one or worst of all, stubbly.

my wife abhors facial hair which is lucky cause i can't grow more than a van dyke and a pubestache

i do give good stubble, always have

wish i could connect it from the chin to the temples convincingly but alas

i was once complimented on my "money stubble" by a drunk college freshman who was, sadly, lacking any of his own.

he was right.

i like it. stubble or beard though, no in betweens. i do have a perverse attachment to goatees, but they're usually major warning signs.

I absolutely fucking loathe shaving.

^^^This. I've shaved myself clean about four times ever and each time I'm reminded why I don't do that because the combination of soooo sensitive plus massive amounts of razor bumps means I can't shave again without destroying my face. Then it's several days of stubble, which is the worst part because it feels like gravel is being pressed through my face. I usually keep my facial hair in the in between state Maria describes. If it's long enough to get in my mouth, I know it's time to trim.

Actually, the problematic shaving areas are all around my chin and mouth. My cheeks shave just fine, so sometimes I trim it down to a goatee.

In addition to my physical problems with it, I strongly dislike the way I look cleanshaven when I have long hair. Short hair + cleanshaven works, though.
