Fiannan Posted June 29, 2007 Report Share Posted June 29, 2007 With all the hysteria about global warming maybe this is an idea that will come soon: What, you may ask, is the connection between the lingerie industry, the porn industry and global warming? Well, it is hard to ignore the impact that fashion has had on what the perception of what is desirable and what isn't. Think about it, do you think your great grandmother shaved her legs when styles were for dresses to cover your legs? Of course not. Now with all the talk of social responsibility we need to look to making sacrifices to save Mother Earth. So what is the problem you ask? Simple, in the last decade or so the lingerie industry has evolved from something that was a little naughty to something that is now mainstream. Undershort-style underwear has been replaced by the all-too-popular thong and to top it off dresses are a bit more revealing of the body. To add to the problem the internet has made porn an almost mainstream phenomena in which body hair is almost a taboo. Whether it is men viewing hairless (below the neck) or women the idea of hairless body's is becoming the norm. Now how is this trend of all-body shaving contributing to the problem of global warming? Simple, most women spend a great deal of time in the shower removing hair. Think of all the demands on energy output (as well as water consumption) this causes! If a woman shaves even once a week that is maybe 10 additional minutes with the hot water going. Multiply that times 51 weeks a year and you have 8 and a half hours per year of the how water going for every female under 45 who does this (and in a country the size of the USA that's a lot of water). So what is the solution? Industries now promoting the hairless look should voluntarily switch to featuring only models who do not shave at all -- and if they don't our liberal politicians need to figure out some sort of "bare tax" to solve the problem. Over time maybe people's perceptions of beauty will change and the "natural" look will be in vogue. On the other hand, long hair on the head is as much a problem. Even men probably spend as much time washing their head hair as they do the rest of the body. So women should be encouraged to cut their hair very short (scissors can be used so you don't have to worry about increased energy needs). With short hair time in the shower will further be curtailed -- and Mother Earth will thank you. So full body hair coupled with short head hair could drastically reduce energy needs and water consumption. The great thing is that many women in Nancy Pelosi's district in San Francisco are probably already on the cutting edge of this vital trend and they don't even know it -- and how they are helping the environment. Sacrifice is needed now! I even heard that Eskimos are drowning because the ice is getting thinner. I have no idea if it is true but when global warming hysteria is concerned that is really not important, is it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vinny15 Posted June 29, 2007 Report Share Posted June 29, 2007 Holy Crap. This is a joke right? YOur asking to much I think lol. You cant change the world and I can assure you models are always gonna shave lol. Its best to find a compromise like instead of shveing get laser hair removal. Other things, but the earth can take us though we must treat it well. Eventually Gods will will be done and no body can thwart it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sixpacktr Posted June 29, 2007 Report Share Posted June 29, 2007 Fiannan, good one. You make excellent points, and what's a little hair on the legs or back between friends? I'm sure you were going here as well, but you did leave out bathing altogether. I think that Nancy and crew can come up with some "bath tax" that charges us for the extra water we are stealing from the spotted owl.

StrawberryFields Posted June 29, 2007 Report Share Posted June 29, 2007 Yeah RIIGGGHHHTTT!!! Do you really even believe that we will go backwards in time with things like shaving? Also, I have medium to long hair, and I can't imagine that washing it takes any longer than short hair. The only thing about long hair is using conditioner, which would require another rinse unless you use the "leave in" conditioner. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or maybe that is long hair Of course I am joking but I dare people here who also participate in more liberal forums to cut this and paste it -- I'll bet some people will actually start debating the merits of it.Also, if having body hair is in any way counter to good hygene then shouldn't men shave their bodies like the actors in the movie 300 did?

Alaskagain Posted June 29, 2007 Report Share Posted June 29, 2007 Wow, this is Great! I had planned on taking tomorrow off, anyway, time for me to regroup and lounge out on the deck B) , read scriptures and other uplifting material, and really relax. So I was already planning on saving a lot of electrical energy. Now, my trailer is starting to get a little unkempt, but I can't classify it as trashy yet , so my plans for the day have not changed. No vaccuuming, no washer, no dryer, no dishwasher. And now, I don't even have to shave my legs. Counts more if I don't use the electric shaver. Awesome.

Fiannan Posted June 29, 2007 Author Report Share Posted June 29, 2007 Sorry ladies: "Now, this restoration shall come to all, both old and young, both bond and free, both male and female, both the wicked and the righteous; and even there shall not so much as a hair of their heads be lost; but every thing shall be restored to its perfect frame" (Alma 11:42Â - 44).

StrawberryFields Posted June 30, 2007 Report Share Posted June 30, 2007 I have looked into the laser hair removal stuff and I would do it except one of two things. 1. it sounds like a pain (both kinds) you need go for six treatments to ensure completeness. 2. Body hair will come back into fashion and I care so much about being in vogue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
