SaligoBay Posted May 30, 2006 Share Posted May 30, 2006 Sorry, it's not THAT funny, but I'm sure there are one or two of us regulars with beards, to whom this will apply. It looks like a fantasy beard is essential for true integration. http://www.lemonde.fr/web/article/0,1-0@2-3238,36-777291@51-774668,0.html"Nous, les hommes, avons cette possibilité de dessiner des inscriptions sur notre corps, éphémères, naturelles et amusantes", revendique-t-il fièrement. Les femmes n'y seraient pas insensibles. 47 % d'entre elles, selon le sondage Novatris, aimeraient que leur homme change de look régulièrement."We men are able to draw things on our bodies, ephemeral, natural, and amusing." [+o(] he claims proudly. And women notice. 47% of them, according to a Novatris poll, would like their men to have a regular re-looking.La mode est au "gothy", une forme de barbe rase qui entoure la bouche, ainsi qu'aux moustaches très fines et aux pattes stylisées, un peu à la Bartabas."

Just Katie Posted May 30, 2006 Share Posted May 30, 2006 Beards.... Urggghhhh. They are OK on the guys though but more of a stubble than a beard. No we don't like all that bushiness all over the place. Especially when food like egg and beans get caught up in it.Please dont make me look at hairy chests either.

Dick Smith Posted May 30, 2006 Share Posted May 30, 2006 So I guess I'm not your ideal man after all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lori Posted May 30, 2006 Share Posted May 30, 2006 Too funny ! It seems that "creative shaving" has become rather the rage for men AND women.Love the scruffy look on certain men, but don't want it brushingagainst my skin. Not that I have "certain men" brushing againstmy skin ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unknown Posted May 30, 2006 Share Posted May 30, 2006 SB, sorry but I thought you were a woman, had a bit of a shock when I read your post, visions of a mature woman with a big old beard on.Katie, I have to say I don't like beards either, but tashes are worse, having a big old hairy caterpillar crawling across the face, sorry to those with tashes.Dick, can we still have our date on 6th June? I've already chosen my outfit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
opas Posted May 30, 2006 Share Posted May 30, 2006 Dick . You could be more like mine though ..........especialy if you have a hairy chest, you have got more in common with le Bouffon that you thought[:)] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dick Smith Posted May 30, 2006 Share Posted May 30, 2006 Dotty, I'm sorry if I misled you, but the date is with the dog. I'll see he is washed and brushed up for the occasion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unknown Posted May 30, 2006 Share Posted May 30, 2006 Oh Dick I thought it was you, and I wanted to have a dance at Miki's welcome back party, but you didn't show up. Are you trying to tell me something? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dick Smith Posted May 30, 2006 Share Posted May 30, 2006 I'm sorry, I'm fully booked on that day. I'm not sure what I'm doing yet...I was with you until you mentioned the dancing, but as I said, I've got a bone in my leg. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patf Posted May 30, 2006 Share Posted May 30, 2006 When we first visited France I noticed that most men of " a certainage" had a droopy moustache. Nowadays don't see so many. Another point:a beard can hide a double chin/slack neck also lines on thecheeks so as long as it's not grey or white can make a man look moreyouthful. Husband has had one for years and doesn'tlook aday over 21. Pat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SaligoBay Posted May 30, 2006 Author Share Posted May 30, 2006 [quote user="Dotty Trois"]SB, sorry but I thought you were a woman, had a bit of a shock when I read your post, visions of a mature woman with a big old beard on.[/quote]Yeah, that's me! Nah, I just didn't want anyone to feel singled out, you know? I wouldn't like to be accused of beardist behaviour.As Dick is the only one who is confessing to having a beard, maybe we should choose an appropriate artistic beard-trim for him. In the interest of his integration in France, you understand. Then Mrs Smith can get the raspberry hair dye, et voilà, zey will be 100% Frrrrrench. I think we need Chris, he of the chainsaw carving skills. Chris, how adaptable are you? Actually, on second thoughts, I've just remembered the last thing Chris carved. Maybe not!

Just Katie Posted May 30, 2006 Share Posted May 30, 2006 Yes SB Chris could carve a big one on Mr Smiths belly. Can you imagine him strutting his stuff on Brighton Beach? Rolled up trousers, knotted hankie and a wonderful creation from the chainsaw lunatic. Could make front page of the sun with the beach babes next time we hit 90 degrees.BTW SB, your beard was nicely trimmed when I saw you in Tesco.

Dick Smith Posted May 30, 2006 Share Posted May 30, 2006 Try this:http://www.thefantasygirl.com/cosmetics/beardcover.shtmlI'm not sure that would work on me.There's a shop I've seen that sells false beards for the lady partners of other ladies who prefer their lady partners facially hirsute. A bit odd, gave me a headache trying to work it all out.IMPORTANT EDIT - I have just looked into other parts of that website, and they are definitely not 'work friendly' or suitable for children, so beware!

Cat Posted May 30, 2006 Share Posted May 30, 2006 Are you sure those false beards for ladies were for facial use Dick, perhaps they were merkins ! (Don't click on kink... oops sorry, link, if you are easily offended). [Www] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dick Smith Posted May 30, 2006 Share Posted May 30, 2006 I just googled Fantasy Beards. Like you do, sometimes, when you are a bit bored. You know...I took a picture of the shop I saw, if I can find it I'll post it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lori Posted May 30, 2006 Share Posted May 30, 2006 Oh Cat, I thought I had heard everything - or nearly, but that was anew one for me. The original use sounds gross !! The modernuse strikes me as funny since all I ever hear is how everyone isgetting rid of body hair - everywhere.The make-up website was odd too. I'm not sure I got it. Youput the stuff on to create a beard or to 'enhance' a beard??? I'mtotally lost now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dick Smith Posted May 30, 2006 Share Posted May 30, 2006 You put it on to hide a beard, assuming that you are a bloke and you want to pass yourself of as a woman. Yeah, right, that works, doesn't it!Hence also the false women's rude bits that you can use to cover up real mens' rude bits (really had to think about the apostrophe there). It's all just too complicated, I'm afraid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
