Where Do You Shave?

I don’t remember how the subject came up but a friend of mine and I were discussing leg shaving. She mentioned shaving in the tub and I thought that was a strange place to shave your legs. There’s no light in there and I don’t wear my glasses or contacts in the shower so how is a person supposed to see what they’re doing in there? What if you shave something you didn't intend to shave? You know, take a little too much off the top, so to speak.

Well, evidently, I’m the oddball on this one. I now find out that most of the women I know, shave their legs (and other lady parts) in the bathtub or shower rather than at the sink like me.

Where do you shave?

You know, when a guy shaves over the sink, his face is over the sink so that everything doesn't drip or fall over the floor. How does a woman who shaves at the sink do this?

I would have loved to answer real men don't shave but since I got married and the beard doesn't agree with the wife, I guess I gave up my manhood so to speak.

I have bad vision and bad lighting, which explains why I have lots of hairy patches on my legs!

I have bad eyesight and bad lighting, but I shave in the shower. I've done this for so long that I can just feel my way! xoxo Poodles

A woman.

Shaving her legs.

At the sink.

Now that's a mental image I think I can enjoy for weeks to come!

Godfather - Hi! I've written a couple of similar posts but you'll have to hunt them down. I'll pop over and check to see what else you got.

Ed - I stand by the sink and prop my foot on the counter (or on the toilet) then I rinse the razor after each stroke. There's no mess at all.

Renee - I am definitely in the minority with the sink/good lighting shave routine.

Poodles - It seems to be the most popularity way to do it.

Useless man - How macho!

Tim - You devil, you!

oh, I really, really wanted to sing the body electric! Not because of the shaver but because it sounds so elegant.

Lorna - You sing it anyway, girl!
