Facial hair review…

Noooooooo

When the lead singer of my favorite band, Our Lady Peace, decided to grow a beard (cultivating it and keeping it only for a brief time, during which was my first and, so far, only opportunity to see them live), I began giving the male facial hair question some thought. While I love Raine Maida (OLP’s lead singer), I am relieved he shaved the carpet from his strikingly amazing face.

Raine Maida – No carpet, and at the concert I went to, carpeted.

I am not completely against facial hair on a man. It depends on the man and how he keeps it. I think my biggest issue is that I have extremely sensitive skin and when a guy forgets or neglects to shave, kissing me is pretty much out of the question. It turns my face into something that resembles a sunburned porcupine victim.

There are some absolute musts in the facial hair department, such as:

Wolverine!

Captain Jack Sparrow

Odin, Thor’s father.

ZZ Top, of course.

For the most part, I believe a man should keep it neat and trimmed. Both upstairs and down, by the way. My favorite style of facial hair… the soul patch..

Soul Patch – Matt

It matches my landing strip 😉

 

Keep tuned. Coming up:

Chubby guys I’d get down with.

Things some guys haven’t caught onto yet, but should.

Strip Club Secrets. A peek into the dressing room.

I love nerds.

Sexy nerd.

The most attractive quality in a man is a high I.Q. I love extremely intelligent guys. Nothing turns me off faster than someone who isn’t at least equal to me in intelligence. I love the shy, quiet, smart type. The ones who can do math and know everything about a computer. Smart is sexy. A guy should never “ghetto up” his lingo, or speak with inadequate grammar and vocabulary. And there is nothing worse than that macho asshole who is one person when alone with a girl, but someone totally different when he’s around his friends. NEVER EVER dis-respect a girl unless she totally deserves it. It’s a turn off and makes a guy appear insecure and not genuine. It also places him right into the average, boring crowd of cattle and sheep mooooving right along to society’s rhythm. LAME.

Nerds are HOT

A little experiment for you guys…

All of you guys who are too shy, too self-conscious, too insecure, whatever category you fall into, I want you to do something. Its very simple. Very quick. It should be mostly painless. Just trust me, please. Try this. The very next beautiful girl you see, run into, are in the proximity of… so long as she is not with another man, of course. Just go up to her and pay her a compliment. A very honest, simple compliment. Do it with a smile and look her in the eyes and tell her something true and from the heart. Maybe that she has a magnetic smile, or beautiful eyes. Don’t try to be fancy or original, just genuine.

What’s the worst possible thing that will happen? If she’s a bitch, she snubs you. Who cares, you don’t need a bitch, trust me. If she’s nice, she’ll smile and say thank you. You’ve made her day. After that, if she just looks away and goes about her business, walk away. Just walk away with confidence. If she seems to want to engage, you will know the signals, then just introduce yourself. Don’t talk too much, let her lead the conversation. See where it takes you.

At the very least, you will have done something you will feel proud of yourself for, and then the next beautiful girl you see, it will be that much easier to do the same thing.

Small steps to a more confident, lady slaying you. That’s key.
