What Is This Thing About Dirty Unshaven Faces

I don't know about the dirt, but men shaving their faces is a plot by women to get back at men for the custom of leg shaving.



[Edited to add another song by the Dellwoods, somewhat related:

Hidden Truth

Mark says: "Me, I shave every few days"

That's true of me also. I look much of the time like a guy lost in the woods for decades.

On DavidC's comment, I never thought that women might be disturbed over the custom of keeping their legs shaved. I still need to go back and see the Youtube videos linked above.

There was the time a school administrator I knew introduced me to 2 women visiting the states from Holland. They were very pretty but their unshaven legs made them seem like half-man half-woman and I went into shock. Our conditioning can mess with the mind.

My opening complaint has to do with men who are in business, seen in videos and photographs, representing their professions. All their facial hair looks (to me) careless, messy, scrubby, un-befitting, and not a suitable company image.

But I am an equal opportunity complainer... the women seen on television as news anchors and show hosts dress like call girls on the job. If men grope them it looks to me like they were "on display" and inviting of a bit of "sampling".

Perhaps the ALPB can offer "corporate re-training" to help me get over my attitudes.

With the recent Star Wars movie being shown, I saw a documentary short about the making of the original movie in the mid-1970s, behind the scenes. It seemed like every younger guy working on the production was bearded, a surprise to see.

It must be a trendy thing, people are such followers!

It's a good thing you are not in politics or that comment would get you nailed in today's climate!  ;-)
