"Manscaped" Ohmygoodgodfrey, that was FUNNY! Sitting here at work eating my soup and I about spit a mouthful in plain view of my boss. You naughty gentlemen (and I use the term loosely) have made my horrid Monday a little more doable!

In all seriousness though, I have a question and a comment for my little man.

First the comment: Ever since our first trip to St. Martin when he was a wee thing, he's discovered "au naturel." (The kid don't like clothes and doesn't like being confined). He's 9 and doesn't have much of a choice now but whenever he gets the chance and he's private, off they go.

Now the question:
What is the best way to handle "Rash Boy." The poor little tyke was misserable last time from all the wet trunks, sand, sea, strap. He walked like he'd ridden a horse for days. How can he prevent this?

chrisn, another thing to do is have him apply something to the areas where he gets the rash before any irritation appears--something to act as a buffer. You could try vaseline, or bodyglide, or monistat makes a no-chafe gel that works. John has really sensitive skin and gets rashes easily, so this part of the routine when he is going to be spending the day in a swimsuit. According to him, it really does help.
It's like looking in your soup and finding a whole different alphabet.

Okay, I cannot be a lurker any longer. It is time to be a man and respond, although I hope wifey doesn't throw a hissy fit: :roll: I have been thinking of cutting away the liner in my bathing suits to make them more "comfortable". :lol:

I have been cracking up reading Jorge and others too long.

You guys are a riot...and Jimmy Kimmel needs to read this thread! Women sit around and talk all the time, and I always see you guys in the background, sipping your beer with "that look" on your face; now we know where your minds were all the time! Y'all have given a whole new meaning to the island expression "hang loose"!! :oops: (did I really just say that??)
