happyrobert Posted May 25, 2011 Share Posted May 25, 2011 I am very interested in the topic of what it means to properly trim toenails in Thailand. I didn't know the proper way to trim my nails for years. It made me angry and wanting to attack and hit other men. Women don't know how to trim men's nails. They try, but they are wasting their time. They simply can't understand us. I decided to join a men's toenail trimming group to learn how. It changed my life. Professionals presented a workshop. All of us then proceeded to trim our nails together in the proper manner -- straight across, not rounded. Some of us trimmed each other's nails. Most men live in isolation from other men because of their fear that they might want to trim another man's nails. I always had avoided other men because I thought that someday I might succumb to the irresistable temptation to trim another man's nails. But now that I have, you all must do the same or suffer the consequences of not being a real manly man's man. Like me. I think my inability to cut my nails properly--rounded, instead of straight across--all started because my father did not know how to trim his nails. He said he loved me. But how could that be true if he didn't take the time to teach me the right way? I'm a little surprised that Thailand does not seem to have an initiation ritual to teach boys how to trim their toenails. My nails are now more manly looking. All of you should take this advice and change the way you trim your nails. You can not be a man like me if you don't know how to cut your nails properly. How do you trim your nails? Rounded? Or straight, like me? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moonrakers Posted May 25, 2011 Share Posted May 25, 2011 My toe nails become talon like and sharp at the edges. Great for when Mrs. Rakers starts to encroach upon my side of the bed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StreetCowboy Posted May 25, 2011 Share Posted May 25, 2011 We can all sleep at night now , knowing how to correctly cut our toe nails , you could say thats nailed it then. Tedious... You are a nutter if you don't get your toenails done, after coming all this way for your hair cut. One of the reasons that there are so many arab tourists here is Thailand's reputation for coiffeural service, and I am sure toe-clipping tourism (toerism) is a growth industry. I think that the need to cut your own toenails shows an inability trust others - just like waxing your own buttock cleft. SC 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SC Toerism... ...I ended up doing my own toe nails last night,,,,not sure if I prefer the red or purple...but anyway there is serious mileage literally and metaphorically in the idea of a toe-clipping tourism...It would also be a novel idea if they would give a happy ending at the end of a clipping session akin to the feeble massage you get after your haircut,,,,with a gentle toe sucking session... Right must dash...just need to get my clothes out of the tumble dryer here and into the suitcase...off to Vietnam tonight....found an excellent ironing service in Hanoi...

mario299 Posted May 25, 2011 Share Posted May 25, 2011 (edited) Thanks for bringing this topic of the science of toenail clipping up, as I have felt myself massively out of balance in the past and actually considered seeking professional help from a shaman. Guess I don't need to now, as you seem to have nailed my problem. It seems that I wasn't properly balancing the cutting, one toe was much heavier than some of the others. I'm so happy you have "toed" me this, I think I can continue my journey now. mario299 Edited May 25, 2011 by mario299 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nidge Posted May 25, 2011 Share Posted May 25, 2011 I clip my toenails at the same time as i am weeding in the garden. It helps to have a multi purpose Hoe. Although i guess if you had a couple of Hoe's you could keep one in the garden and one in the bedroom for when you need a trim. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True, if you let the foliage get too out of control you could start digging the wrong plot. The owner would most likely get miffed and you'd be in the sh1t!
