"When I was 12, I was given my first scribe and had my testicles ritualistically shaven. There is really nothing quite as breathtaking as a shorn scrotum" - Dr. Evil

I would not call that hazing . . . I am not sure what I would call it though . . .

As far as the Actives shaving the pledges . . . that means that a group of men let other men take a steel razor to their most sensitive parts . . .

Fellow Members of the Greek Community, I have spent my entire life actively avoiding threats to those areas of my body. And I would never, ever, allow anyone to forcibly depilate me with such a Loraina Bobbit style method . And as I run now for the position of Sensitive Body Parts Protector I have only one platform, with one plank, if elected I will never allow anyone to take razor sharp stainles steel blades to the nether regions of your body and will stand guard over them as if they were my very own . . .

BTW, not to be all Clintonesq about it, but it also depends on their defination of their is. In what tense is it used. Carnation, you're an english teacher, whats the word for a word that has several meanings? I mena whos "their"? Who has ownership when the word is used as such? Who has implied ownership? WAHT DOES THEIR MEAN????

"Possession is 99% of the law." I would assume this implies-whoever has POSSESSION of said article(s) would be the "their" in the previous statement. Therefore if said article(s) is in the hands of someone, would that not imply it becomes their possession?

One could argue, and reasonably so, that since said article(s), upon closer examination, may more readily be defined as an asset. In such a case, the holder of the asset becomes definable as a trustee. Therefore, the trustee is resposible for the maintanence of the assets but is in no way responsible for any loss or devaluation of the asset....just ask your broker.

Since the orginal rant was about facial hair looking a bit...odd....

What's up with that chin strap facial hair some guys got going on? I don't know how to describe it other than that. It just looks kind of weird.... It's the equivalent of girls shaving an American flag or something crazy into their pubes. Way too much time and not worth the effort. And it's funny.

My big problem about pubes is this: A lot of guys expect a girl to be nicely waxed, NADs, Epil stop n sprayed at all time...however, some of them are coming at you looking like an 80's porn star!

Icky.

P.S. Please do not ask me about the last time I heard of a woman shaving a flag into her nether regions. I haven't. And I don't want to.

Personally, I am partial to the mutton chops.

Lifesaver, I just saw your post (I've been studiously avoiding this thread recently!) and I'm a Spanish professor, not an English one!;)

Well, my honey has a little facial hair in the goatie region, but it is not goatie long. He looks Puerto Rican and it is really cute. Trust me, they do serve a purpose. :D

first, as for the facial hair...i completely agree that it looks like pubic hair and it is tacky. it isn't good when your first impression of someone is that they have a bunch of pubic hair glued to their chin. i also don't like it because when you are kissing someone w/ facial hair it always seems like you have a rash on your upper or lower lip (wherever they have facial hair) and it hurts.

second, i agree with guys at least trimming down there, i mean who wants a mouth full of hair while visiting down there. however, a bunch of guys shaving eachother is not something i would want to picture. i mean couldn't they have found something a little better to do. i would be freaked out if my sisters were to say we were all going to gather in a room for that purpose. if i do that, I'LL do it. i don't need assistance from all of my sister. what i do down there is between ONLY me and my boyfriend.

LMAO...seriously!!!:)

ROFL!!! Are you sure you're not an attorney?!! I could just see some guy at a bar: "Hey baby, wanna be my trustee?"

MY GOD, poor Buford is just cringing here!:D

You people are sick sick and sick!;)

Forget today as tommarrow hopelfully will come!;)

Sorry C, my bad. I new you were a prof, and knew it dealt with languages, just thought it was english. Still love me?;)

This was kind of funny.

Two years later this thread is still funny. :p
