Shaving Poll

From a discussion I had last night, a very short, quick poll, aimed only at the people who prefer their men to have clean-shaven faces. No-one can view your answers, but comments will be open to all - no screening.

EDIT - if you want to be able to see the poll's stats (without the answerers being identified of course) anyone is welcome to answer the final question, and that will give them the opportunity.


[Poll #1068748]

Re: I haven't done your poll... but here's my two cents.

I think danny just doesn't want the mental image of me intruding in the part of his brain that thinks about female genitalia.

The idea of telling (not suggesting, but telling someone and expecting your opinions will override theirs) someone how they should have their hair or similar sets off my 'I am a controlling psycho' alarm, and the more intimate the creepier. Teasing partners about how awful they look, however, does not.

*nods* okay I get it.

If I ever date you I'll remember to tease you for being hairy Dave rather than demanding you to not be hairy Dave ;)

Perhaps I'm super sensitive but I always feel bad when partner's make comments on how I look, even things like "I liked the way your hair looked yesterday" or "You should do that more often."

Actually, I'm pretty bad at anyone demanding I do anything, I have a naturally contrary nature. But I'm usually willing to do it if rephrased as a polite request. Teasing I might find annoying, but not creepy.

You are super-sensitive if you don't like even mild compliments!

If you have been constantly teased about hair for as long as you can remember and have medical conditions that mean you lose alot of it- randomly, it makes you super-sensitive.

I mentioned to Danny before that for most of the polls where he screens comments I'd have no problem with my thoughts being seen to all- but this topic- hair- I'm self screening what I say because there are heaps of private issues I have with it.

So I'm super-sensitive and weird! (go me!)

Teasing might be annoying, but its not creepy. I do respond better to requests.

You are super-sensitive if you have issues with mild compliments.
