"Veet for Men - why is there no such thing?"

Saw the advert for this product earlier today.

What I want to know is... why the hell can't they produce this stuff for men?

I absolutely detest shaving. Not only is it an incredible waste of time, but if I shave downwards only, I'm still left with stubble; so I have to shave upwards too - which leaves me bloody sore.

Why can't they make a mens version of this stuff for your face, which would leave you stubble free for days?

What a load of gonads. It's a timewasting inconvenience, and nothing at all to do with "how manly you are".

If how hairy you are is a measure of how manly you are, then you're ALL women compared to me!

yes and why don't they make nail varnish for men? and spaghetti tops?

This thread is the biggest collection of gays I've ever been witness to.

"Shaving is hard, boo hoo, it hurts. I want it to be over quickly and use a women's product on my face. I wish I never grew hair at all and was smooth as an eel, waah waah waah."

Newsflash people - SHAVING IS PART OF BEING A MAN. It's part of what should make you a red-blooded heterosexual tyrannosaur, not an inconvenience. You should cherish every single facial follicle, not whine like a little girl about how much it messes up your complexion.

Pandy has the right idea - shaving should be done with the sharpest object closest to hand, with a proper lather. You should be half scared that you're so manly, you might cut your own throat just to prove how hard you are.

I really want a cutthroat razor and leather strop, but with the shaking hands on the morning after a heavy session, I think it'll be a bad, bad idea...........

Anti-Sex League would have that

I imagine that that gel stuff is all goopy and doesn't wash off easily. Otherwise EVERYONE would use it, and they'd invent it for men.

Also, on my earlier question, I have to agree with the "neatly trimmed" idea, although a landing strip looks a bit odd, in my opinion.

Would anyone go for that Stop Sign design?

I got a huge cut on my ankle from shaving the other week it's huuuuuge! The Veet stuff is waaaay to messy for my likings!

I'm sure it's quite an image.

Argh, I used to hate shaving with a razor. One time I actually cut my head off, just like that bloke on the Internet, except my screaming wasn't dubbed. Now I use an electric razor every now and again, but I prefer having what crap stubble I can acquire.

Maybe you left it on a little too long or you have sensitive skin, next time go for the sensitive skin one ;)
