On the stupid tv cabaret shows the baddie often has a beard.crazyjohn wrote:I don't know why someone would make a comment about Cambodian whores. Only someone who had an axe to grind I suppose. But Cambodian comedians wear funny looking beards and moustaches all the time. They take the piss out of people with facial hair so I don't think that Cambodians in general like facial hair.
Years ago I heard of church telling the story of Jesus to Provincial people using a picture book. Jesus of course had a beard and the people asked ‘why is Jesus a baddie’.
Nowadays no one really cares, although every time I shave off my whiskers my staff make a point of telling me how handsome I look - but that’s mainly the fellas.

Special forces/private security/paintballers all have beards.PSD_Kiwi wrote:Nothing wrong with growing a beard...as long as you're not a skinny jean wearing snowflake hipster
I saw a picture of a special forces guy on R&R (Iraq, Afghanistan) and there’s a bar full of beards (and tattoos) and one guy who’s clean shaven and white skinned.
“Who’s that I asked?”
“CIA” he said then added “Junior”
pew, pew, pew, pew!
paintballers all have beards.
I'm not a negative person, I encourage people all the time...it's usually to f**k off! But, whatever.

Beards are the mullets of the current era.
Romantic Cambodia is dead and gone. It's with McKinley in the grave.

Doesnt "maintaining" a beard make you a fucking hipster though?slavedog wrote:Is there anywhere in town specialising in mustache maintenance? (asking for friend who undoubtedly possesses the most handsome mustaches in Phnom Penh).
I have a slight beard, but its totally unmaintained so i guess you could say i'm more special forces than fucking hipster. Like a coiled spring ready to jump into action at the drop of a hat i am.

That fascinating Flashman character and his environment sound like a single, decent looking expat in current Cambodia who likes a bit of a play.
As well as bedding more or less any lass available, he married whenever it was politic to do so. During a posting to Scotland, he was forced to marry Elspeth to avoid "pistols for two with her fire-breathing uncle". He is still married to her decades later when writing the memoirs, though that does not stop him pursuing others. Nor does it prevent marrying them when his safety seems to require it; he marries Duchess Irma in Royal Flash and in Flashman and the Redskins he marries Susie Willnick as they escape New Orleans and Sonsee-Array a few months later.
He was also once reminded of a woman that Elspeth claimed he flirted with named Kitty Stevens, though Flashman was unable to remember her.
He had a special penchant for royal ladies, and noted that his favourite amours (apart from his wife) were Lakshmibai, Ci Xi and Lola Montez: "a Queen, an Empress, and the foremost courtesan of her time: I dare say I'm just a snob." He also noted that, while civilized women were more than ordinarily partial to him, his most ardent admirers were among the savage of the species: "Elspeth, of course, is Scottish." And for all his raking, it was always Elspeth to whom he returned and who remained ultimately top of the list.
His lechery was so strong that it broke out even in the midst of rather hectic circumstances. While accompanying Thomas Kavanaugh on his daring escape from Lucknow, he paused for a quick rattle with a local prostitute, and during the battle of Patusan, he found himself galloping one of Sharif Sahib's concubines without even realizing it but nonetheless continued to the climax of the battle and the tryst.
Flashman's relations with the highest-ranking woman of his era, Queen Victoria, are warm but platonic. He first meets her in 1842 when he receives a medal for his gallantry in Afghanistan[6] and reflects on what a honeymoon she and Prince Albert must have enjoyed. Subsequently he and his wife received invitations to Balmoral Castle, to the delight of the snobbish Elspeth.
I don't think so, but is there some way I can check? Some kind of test, perhaps. I'd like to know where I score on the fucking hipster scale.spitthedog wrote: Doesnt "maintaining" a beard make you a fucking hipster though?

Of course you are permitted to maintain your beard...however waxing and styling makes you a fucking hipster.
