Why Should the Average Man Join Us?

Again, I don't think anyone is looking for the whole world to switch to DE shaving...just for a reasonable way to maintain the hobby we all enjoy.

And grim your post is, in my opinion, one of the big reasons people DO turn to traditional wet shaving...to slow down. To stop and smell the roses. To take a moment out of a constantly hectic day and just pamper oneself with a mundane chore-turned spa treatment.

I don't disagree with you. The majority of the world is caught in the hype of hyper-activity. But it is this hyper-activity disorder that we are forced to comply with on a daily basis that makes many of us want to just hit the pause button and take some time away from it all. Traditional wet shaving, for many of us, provides exactly that...  And I believe that we will find more and more people discovering the same thing.

And I honestly believe that this will be especially truwe amongst the millenial generation. They have grown up without ever having experienced life without cellhphones, computers and the internet. The desire for nostalgic re-connection to a past they never knew is going to be very strong in many of them, I think, and that will translate into a steady influx of new shavers, keeping our hobby, and it's artisans, alive...

And, can you imagine, my friend, when younger generations do, indeed, stop and smell the roses? Everything changes and, yet, nothing changes.  I am guessing that you are a young man (anything under 50).  I am an older gentleman (70, as I type this) and yet we are all here for the same reason, a love of wet shaving and a desire to pass that on to the next generation, be they male or female.  We truly do have something to offer.

I am young, if you really mean anything under 50, as I am about to turn 43 this year. So I am close to being not young...

My biggest goal right now is trying to get my daughter to embrace traditional wet shaving more. She is very young and just starting to get an inkling of shaving legs and armpits, so there is time. However, in her mms house are 2 women that use throw-away razors and canned foam, so i am fighting the odds. Some weekends she is into helping me pick shaves, some weekends she isnt.

And I am not the kind of father to.push too hard. All things in proper time...Im thinking of getting her a complete setup for her birthday this year...Maggards purple synthwtic brush, a nice girly razor, and a set of soap and lotion from Gingers Garden, might just help to bring her to the dark side...

From someone who has no children of his own, truly, a father's love is something special and I honestly believe you have it. Hold on to that young lady because I think a lot of us will be rooting for her to join us in this wet shaving fun.  Besides, her dad has the coolest moustache and beard ever.
