Just a Strange Question...

[pmulcahy11b]

Just sort of popped into my head -- do you think the practice of females shaving their legs and underarms would have fallen by the wayside by 2000?

Consider how much of the gameplay takes place in and around Germany- then ask yourself if this was being done before the Twilight War...

Ugh Paul...did you have to drudge up certain memories I'd rather FORGET when I was stationed in Germany!?

But to answer your question...it depends. If what remains of the "upper class" or maybe a courtesan or Mata-Hari style seductress, or prostitute wants to ply her trade, she damn well better shave.

Otherwise....might as well let that hair grow, no reason to attract attention from that local marauder/Soviet Conscript/undisciplined militia member/undisciplined American soldier/etc. who wants some poontang, though depending on their state of mind, they might not even care in the first place (as it is with most rapists).

When your looking for a little comfort in a god forsaken mess. Does this really matter?

Perhaps waxing might become more common as decent razor blades become harder to come by.
A mix of chemicals and natural products has to be easier to fabricate than quality blades.

I don't know about that. I believe the average person don't really know squat about chemistry. All I know is the formula for black powder. But grinding down a worn out hacksaw blade or even a table knife into a straight razor would be pretty simple.

Personally I think that the majority of women are likely to continue shaving if they can, even if that means using an old and slightly blunted blade that they've used a million times before and know that they're going to get some minor nicks from it.

On a separate but related note (and I apologise for this if this kind of stuff bothers you) a female friend of mine once included a "moon cup" in her character's personal equipment for a Morrow Project style game. I had no idea what one was but she took delight in explaining......

If you want to know what one is in detail then Google it but, put simply, it's a device designed to help resolve a much more pressing issue for women away from the wonders of modern sanitary products.......
