ok gentlemen; who here has ever had a manicure/pedicure?

title says it all...i admit, i have done it once. i usually destroy my hands and nails, so it isnt worth it. this super hot, petite vietnamese girl talked me into it. my wife was with me, and got a good laugh at me. i had two of those girls picking at me, and doting on me.

strangely fun.

I've had two pedicures. The first was a surprise present from a GF a long time ago. The second was one my wife took me to get. Felt strange in a shop full of women, but my feet liked it.

Used to get them all the time in the PI. Last one there in 91. Those days are gone. Still get one occasionally here in town. Love them, very relaxing, just don't get any ideas about polish. They're about $30 for both and thats with no hanky panky.

Ha, Ha, Ha! No way!
I was in an airport once, traveling with my wife and good friends (another couple); so my buddy goes for the whole deal and tried to convince me to do the same. Ha. I waited and then went in for the perfect op photo.... still holding it for the special day

I'm no where near the homophobic I used to be, but this cowboy ain't getting no lady work done fwiw. 30 seconds in front of a mirror, that's it. My wife does the whole shabbang and when she sees a pretty boy she always comments to me about how much mirror time the guy spends; it's downright creepy imo. But heck, I was born in the 60's!

This, and your pig hunting, are all that's keeping you from losing your man card. You're hanging by a thread.

I've done a few pedicures. My feet take a beating (I think all guys do), so I think it is a restorative thing. But I think I've only done them in a tropic locale at the resort spa when my wife is enjoying some other spa treatment.

Someone touching my feet creeps me out. As for the fingers, that's what nail clippers are for! I aint no fancy lad.

Negative! I have had the podiatrist remove some toe nails due to damage One never grew back. Toe modeling days are over.

Nope. I can trim my own nails without any problems. I can even shampoo my own hair.

Make SURE your toenails are cut down at least a week before your elk hunt! I packed 110#'s of my partners elk 6 miles downhill and lost 3 toenails...not fun!!! AND I didn't even get a steak out of that bull

Did you say "my partner?"

Not that there's anything wrong with that.

Why didn't you get any of the haul, BTW... did y'all break up?

Oh...and the load sheared the clevis pins on my frame...so I had THAT going for me.

Does that 90 minutes come with a happy ending?

If so, I might need to put china higher up on my vacation list.

you guys kill me!!!

hahahahhaha.

i dont know what is more hetero than having a tiny, cute asian chick on her knees picking at your gross parts. i butcher my feet. i half clip/rip my toenails out. the poor chick "gasped" when she saw my feet. she called in for reinforcements. i texted my good pcar buddy JP911 during the event, and he had me in stitches. called it a manscape

maybe you guys should all get together and have it done as a group, you all drive your cars to the nail salon and get your hands and feet done. its a new twist for a porsche run. perhaps even hit a different salon each month.
we started a barbeque run here, but this sounds much better
