Don't bother me one bit. I don't grow anything. Laughing I've shaved with my pocket knife before. Lets just say it feels like you're plucking every hair out. Mad

It would bug me, I hate the feel of stubble...but if I'm in a survival situation that would probably be low on the list of priorities. You know, after the little things like food and shelter.

I usually go about a week between shaving anyways, and in winter, its a nice thing to add a bit more warmth...and in the other months, holds natural camo well, giving a more 3-D effect to your camo

Laughing That's the Grizzly Adams method. Dan Haggerty, the actor who played Grizzly Adams, was in a restaurant some years ago and he got too close to some kind of open flame. No more beard. Shocked

Yeah, that's the down and dirty way. Laughing

It would bother me, but I would get over the extra facial hair. Smile

wouldn't bother me a bite I haven't shaved anywhere for 20 years or so.you can't see the hair on my legs and I don't wear dresses. and nobody sees my legs but my boyfriend and he's not complaining. Very Happy wildthing is absolutely right about shaving.

Each to his own, I suppose. Cool (or her own Wink )

I need to go shave now, as a matter of fact. Surprised

I did yesterday, so am good to go for now. I have to shave on a regular basis, even in the winter. Just can't stand the feel or look of not, plus my hubby does appreciate it. And I make him shave...
