Yes, this is the long-awaited rant about razors. No, not the straight edge ones who the emo cutters carry around. Think of the ones men and women, young and old alike use to shave. It's so unfair that men always get the better blades than women. With the (not so) recent appearance of the Gillette Fusion, with its 5 blades plus 1 precision blade (for those sideburns and other such details), the difference is only more obvious. Are any 5 blade disposables on the market for women? No. Granted, we don't need to shave our faces like men do, but our legs like to feel the luxury of a close shave too!
Men have electric razors, offering almost zero possibility of razor burn and cuts. What do women get? Only disposables, ones with replaceable cartridges, or battery-operated ones, all of which men also have available. It's just not fair that men can get a closer shave than women.

Non-apologies
Originally I was going to apologize for not updating on a regular basis like I said I would. However, after much careful thought & cautions deliberation, I decided against an apologetic post. I feel like, as a writer, I can't be forced to meet these superficial deadlines & due dates. Creativity and thought has no bounds, so it's nonsense to bind said processes with constraints like time.
Of course, writers should have goals, just like any other sane person. My goal was indeed to update regularly but since it's obvious that I haven't achieved that, I'll just reset it like my New Year's resolution!
