That's my problem with the whole situation: I get neither the benefits of growing a beard should I want to yet I still have to go into the bloody ritual of shaving every couple of days or so (when I'm in the work force of course). It makes me wonder if laser hair removal or waxing would just be more time efficient means of getting rid of the few scraps I have. Of course should I ever become a fugitive from the law I won't have the benefit of growing a beard to mask my identity.

I don't think I could ever use a straight razor on myself. Already when I use standard razors I always think "focus, make sure you don't accidently nick your eyeball" (I have an eye trauma phobia).
