Perhaps the cure to male loneliness is men stepping up for men. As a former lost boy myself, I certainly would have appreciated it.

Now I mentor the shit out of juniors in my professional life.

    Why do people keep saying “once you find something that works”

    Yeah, this kind of thing is what I think subconsciously prevented me from getting a safety razor for years. The wetshave sub on reddit has tons of posts like “I used emu fat extract soap with my hog bristle sterling XCo 9000 brush today after preheating my skin to the optimal 99.4 degree temperature (confirmed with a laser thermometer) and shaved with the jewel-encrusted limited edition sex panther cage free Blade BlasterTM”.

    I’m sure if you have sensitive skin you might need to make certain adjustments, but I got the cheapest safety razor I could find online and a pack of 100 blades for like 10 bucks, and use it exactly like I used those stupid 5 blade ripoffs with no issues at all.
