    LOL….. You just love to poke fun at me on your blog! First tampons now this.

    I told you, I don’t why it was in the shower (probably Emily) but when I looked at it and looked back at mine, yours just looked shinier and better. I couldn’t help it. Besides, I meant to put it back where it belongs. Then you would never have known I used your beloved razor. You say you know, but I have tested this. You don’t!
    By the way, I love Clayton’s solution.

    I actually frequently use my wife’s to shave the back of my neck (it’s pretty hairy and bothers me) since I do not possess the ability to shave my face in the shower, and thus my razor is always in the medicine cabinet.

    Ironically, our razors of choice are also the Mach3 and the Quatro.

    If I have this problem my wife is smart and returns my razor before I know I had this problem, it may be why I go through three times as many razors as she does. By the way, The Mach 3 Turbo is the best in my opinion, great minds think alike.

    I can say that because he doesn’t read blogs. If he did I would say “I NEVER use my hubby’s razor. We respect each others’ personal property”…or something like that.

    BTW – Shaving in the shower is awesome!!! Just get a little fog free mirror. If gives me an excuse to stand in the hot water longer. And I don’t get the little red bumps on my neck anymore.

    I would take care of Lisa using you razor first though. Nothing dulls a razor faster than leg hairs.

    i must say, a guys razor is much much better. They make our razors to fru fru (if you know what I mean) JUST GIVE ME SOMETHING TO MAKE ME HAIR FREE!! LOL… any way, like someone else said, I gave up and just bought my own “mens” razor.

    And a wonderful beauty tip for MEN: use a great facial scrub to clear off dead skin (they do have some just for men) and hot water or steam to open up those pores. You will have the best shave ever with no red bumps or in-growns! – yes i read to many magazines :)

    I am a woman, and am guilty of this as many women are.
    I myself would switch to his but he doesn’t want me to because he wants me to have a girly razor. He doesn’t care if I use his, as long as mine is still girly.

    I have heard the blades that are in a guy’s razor vs a girl’s razor are better, get a closer shave and I’ve also heard several hollywood stylists recommend their female clients to use the Mach over a girly razor because they make blades better for the guy- probably because it’s going on a guys face vs. your legs. And for those guys who DO shave their legs (for whatever reason) you don’t want smoother legs than your girl do you???

    I think if you ask a girl which shaves better, they will choose a guys razor every time. There’s not all these lotion strips, bumper pads or frilly soaps on yours, and ours (IMHO) are too frilly.

    See, that’s why I love talking about this kind of stuff on my blog. Here’s what I’ve learned so far:

    1. A lot of wives use their guy’s razors so I’m not alone

    2. Shaving in the shower is advisable for guys to get a closer shave

    3. Girl’s razors are too “frilly” and “fru fru”

    4. Obviously there is a grand conspiracy about making women’s razors not as good as a guy’s razor!

    Brad,

    My husband is also smart. He shaves at the sink and threatens me to an inch of my life if I even think about “borrowing” it. He even went to Sams and bought me mine in bulk.

    He says I dull them up and then they tear up his face. I never could tell. Oh well! What’s the next female topic you are going to approach? And to think, you were about to get your man card back!

    I think it is a genetic thing. It is somehow closely tied to the strand of female DNA that makes them do other “odd” things like go to the restroom in groups and extensive non verbal communications abilities between themselves when the male in the group has done something wrong.

    It can’t be changed. All we can do is look for the positive in this kind of razor use event: At least she uses a razor…. to me that is better than the alternative look.

    At our old house, I shared a shower with my parents. So when I shaved I used my dad’s razor. I don’t think he minded too much (if he did, he didn’t say anything).

    Now that we have seperate bathrooms, I got one for myself that is the exact same! It works great and the girl ones are too cheap, foo foo, and they just don’t do a good job.

    My princess also uses my razor as well as practically all of my other personal items and many of my clothes too. It’s a small price to pay to keep a princess on the pea happy if that is all she does, then get over it! Mine likes Gucci and other things Italian and French and that is a far more expensive and annoying habit.

    Best friends share everything, don’t they? My wife has been my best friend since I started talking to her on the phone in 2001.

    She occasionally uses my toothbrush, my razor, my hairbrush (and leaves long strings of embedded blonde hair to my chagrin), my deodorant (which I always buy Secret-it’s “strong enough for a man” and much better than the man junk in the pharmacy), my socks, my bed, my car, my food, my son, and everything else in my life. And guess what? I’m no less of a man for it! Rather, I love her for making the choice as a teenager to be the wife of my youth. And almost a decade later, I can’t believe that the woman of my dreams is sleeping with me.

    “Meekness means knowing when to get angry and when not to get angry. It means knowing what is worth your anger and what is not”-Pentecostal Study Bible.

    With that in mind, there are some things worth chewing the lady out. For example, if she ever had a sudden revelation that she felt bi-curious, that’s something to be angry at the devil and at her about. You just don’t wait until after marriage to question your sexuality. If you hear of someone that is a wife-beater or a child abuser, John 3:16, For God so loved the World and that includes them, but that’s someone you should, in all love, get extremely angry with. Heck, when someone else, be it male or female, is trying to interfere with your relationship or household, the time is on for a healthy dose of indignation. But certainly your wife who forsook her natural relations for the love of the stranger she will take years to know, is worthy of all patience, no criticism, and a deep sense of awe and admiration. Nothing she can ever say or do will compare with what she has done for you or what she has given up to be at your side.

    Think on these things.
