Manscaping

by

I have hair on my chest. It’s a fact. Now, I’m not a gorilla. I don’t have back hair…much. I’m not a Yeti.

Which reminds me, I was flipping channels and saw “Yeti” on the sci fi channel. Some teenagers were trapped in the fuselage of a crashed plane and this…yeti with a zipper was trying to get to them. It was ridiculous. He could jump at Steve Austin speeds, and would rip the beating heart out of someone then step on their head like it was a melon…oh wait…I think it was a melon.

Anyway, back to my manly chest. I have this little patch of chest hair that grows at the base of my throat, below the Adams apple. Every time I wear a polo shirt, it peeks out and says howdy to the world. Tony likes to pull my shirt open and yank on it.

So, as I was shaving the other morning, I decide “What the Hay! Shave it.” It goes along with the losing weight thing…kinda.

Can I tell you I had the worst case of razor burn for about three days? I had to wear shirts that would hide it, cause damn, it looked nasty. I looked like I had some encounter with one of Rosie’s girls from M.A.S.H. And the shirts just made it worse. Of course Sarah was like “Duh! Just the trimmers, don’t shave it.”

So, there you have it. More info than you wanted to know about my manscaping. Tune in next time for my “101 non edible uses of Mayonnaise” series.

    A Film by Shanra J. Kehl
    Produced by Mark LeFleur and Chioke Dmachi

    Manscaping is a story that spans the continental United States and follows the lives of three men as they reach the most important moment in their life… to groom or not to groom.

    Each character decides to embark on the journey toward genital hairlessness, but the trip is wrought with danger, embarrassment and pain.

    Three men must look inside and see who they are underneath their veil of manhood. One finds his true identity, one finds a truth he may have never wanted to know… and one nearly loses his balls.
