"When I have a brand new hairdo
With my eyelashes all in curl,
I float as the clouds on air do,
I enjoy being a guyl!

When gals say I'm cute and funny
And my teeth aren't teeth, but pearl,
I just lap it up like honey
I enjoy being a guy!"

i had to.....just had to

James Petersen: "I have been considering dying the gray out of my beard and hair but I feel funny about it."

James, far be it from me to disagree with our esteemed host, but, the closer Christmas gets, the greater the urge to get rid of the white (which is mostly what my facial hair has become), which is creeping up my sideburns to my temples; with my current girth, I don't want to give any more ammunition to people who might make comparisons between me and a certain generous sleigh-riding chimney-crawler.  I take some ribbing from my graying relatives, but I just explain to them that: 1) It looks good on some people;  2) I'm not one of those people; and 3)I don't want to look their age. 

I make no secret about it; I openly admit I dye my beard and moustache because I think it looks like hell when it's almost all white.

Fake Milestone: Post #555!  Yay, me!  Hey, my achievements in life are few & far between; I'll take what I can get!

John Byrne Seacrest. I can't wait for American Idol to start in January.

Is there any amongst us completely devoid of vanity? Not me, as much as I tell myself otherwise.

My beard is at about 85% gray/white, the hair on my noggin rapidly catching up. I'm just gonna let it go. I'm not losing any sleep over it happening, so what the hell.

Thanks for the tip on beards, JB. I'd been contemplating the JFM treatment on mine.

I'm letting my hair go silver, slowly but surely. I briefly considered coloring,
but silver is so much better than gray.

Well, I am considering to have implants for my hair.

I am OK with my baldness, I can assume it... for the moment. But maybe I will reach a point where I would like to be ... seductive again !

I'm basically against plastic surgery, though I feel like I can't get too high-horsey about it.  I mean, I've HAD plastic surgery, essentially.  My foreskin was removed when I was an infant and I had my teeth artificially straightened in adolescence.  We don't think of those things as plastic surgery in the conventional sense, but, since I'm not a practicing Jew, both were medical procedures that had purely cosmetic motivations.

You almost never seen white hair in China, since everybody, male and female, dyes their hair when it goes white. Sometimes you see some very funny hair colours when the hair grows and they don't die it fast enough. From my understanding, Asians go white pretty fast but you will never see it due to the dye.

If you are referring to braces, there are health benefits to getting them.
Crooked teeth can be more difficult to clean, and misalignment can lead to
jaw problems later on.

Foreskin removal also has medical benefits.

I had laser eye surgery. You could probably class that as cosmetic, but I don't get any more headaches from the glasses.
