That Internet dating thing

Demon G Sides:

I am not completely shaven. I tried it once, but it stands in stark contrast to the rest of my body, which is laden with hair from the mid back down (Seriously, there is a visible edge to my hairline on my back. It starts mid back, and goes down all the way to my ankles).

Demon_G_Sides · 2010-05-27T10:57:00.000Z

Something like that, yeah, actually =\

Eh I don’t hide it, Gary knows I googled him.

My girlfriend googled me and came up with my IMDb profile… but unbeknownst to me, another person with exactly my name had added himself to the database, and IMDb wrongly fused our two profiles. So our very first real life date went like this:

“so uhh… tell me about this movie you were in?”
“in? You mean, worked on?”
“no, in. You acted in a sci-fi erotica porn. Or something.”
“buh?”

This was before iphones, so I had no way to refute her claim; but it didn’t help that it was a canadian movie, and I’m from canada, so the evidence pointed to me trying to cover-up. Anyway, I was very amused by it all later and showed all my friends until the other guy presumably didn’t like having his reputation as a porn star sullied by being mixed with some post-prod shmo and had our profiles split. I’m not sure if my girlfriend was disappointed or not.

Dude, in that situation, you don’t try and refute it! You roll with it! “Oh, that? Yeah, it was weird, I was just supposed to be a production assistant but all of a sudden there was this freak catering accident and they needed a ‘stunt cock’ and apparently I was a dead ringer for the lead, if you know what I mean, so there I was…”

WarrenM:

Careful. Stating that you prefer it shaved will result in you being accused of being a pedo. Just saying…

Yeah, I had a woman ask me if I preferred a woman shorn or matted, and while I was non-committal, she then launched into her theory that men who liked the shorn look in females had a fetish for screwing little girls.

Man oh man, did this thread ever slip into serious TMI territory. Couldn’t Bill have started a “Should I shave my junk?” thread that we could avoid?

Siren · 2010-05-27T12:08:04.000Z

Just trim it, Bill.

Creole_Ned · 2010-05-27T12:10:14.000Z

I know more about Demon’s anatomy than I ever wanted to.

My advice is simple: don’t shave unless you are asked to and are okay with it. EOD!

So far my ‘sit back and wait for things to happen’ approach is yielding little but unlike times past I have huge heapings of patience this go-around.

Or at least I think I do. I guess I’ll find out in a few days.

On the plus side, two of my OKC quiver matches are actually almost worth contacting, even if I am in the “ugly friend” category myself. But I guess they are, too, since they’re showing up for me.

That makes perfect sense. I like bald guys because of my baby fetish.

I’m a bear, ned. I don’t know what you’re into, but I don’t play nice ;)

Excuse me, I thought this thread was about dating advice. Clearly I was mistaken and I apologize for upsetting your delicate sensibilities.

What she said.

A bunch of ya’ll just got on the “Qt3ers I don’t really want to meet in real life because I’ll flash back to that thread list.”

In fairness, BillD and Demon were on that list way before Bill asked about shaving his junk.

Bill Dungsroman:

It has come to my attention - not recently, but regardless - that shaving one’s junk is pretty much de rigeur. Certainly for females at any rate but my question is, does the the standard apply for men as well? Note that I am not particularly hirsute, but I still have a fair amount of undergrowth as it were. I don’t to come off as some kind of hairy wildebeest of a bygone era.

So I ask you, Pogo, Demon, whomever: do you shave your cock and balls?

Oh man, screw that jazz. Like Demon, if I were to shave my crotch area, I would look pretty stupid as I have body hair around that area. I imagine if I started shaving, I wouldn’t be able to draw the line at stopping and then I’d be walking around with a completely hair-free area in the shape of boxer shorts or something.

Trimming is required, though. That’s definitely expected. It should be short enough to make it obvious that you gave it some thought… and to also cause itching. Deal with it. I’d say half of the normal length, where it no longer really curls and can’t be grabbed onto by the Vietcong hiding in the bushes on your way to the Da Nong military complex. Upside is your dick looks bigger. I wouldn’t pay attention much to the ball or spatch area though.

Considering that I don’t shave it entirely, I would find myself too hypocritical to ask the same of the women I date, or be disgusted if she didn’t shave. But, like others, I would respect trimming so that it doesn’t tickle my nose before I take the banana boat straight into tuna town.

WarrenM · 2010-05-27T14:33:38.000Z

I wouldn’t pay attention much to the ball or spatch area though.

At the risk of really running into TMI territory - then don’t expect your partner to pay attention to those areas either.

I’m out and will say no more!

AndrewMyers:

There really is nothing like a shorn scrotum–it’s breathtaking. I highly suggest you try it.

(that was an Austin Powers quote, btw)

Mandrel · 2010-05-27T15:04:35.000Z

Trimmer…

Shaved sack and shaft, trimmed pubic triangle.

May I inquire what put me on that list before? I tend to think I’m a relatively clean poster, compared to some of our others.

It’s cuz I’m young, isn’t it? Jerks :( I just want to sit at the adult table!

I have socks older than you.

Also the Kucinich thread. And your total encyclopedic knowledge of different ways to consume dope.

That’s off the top of my head.
