All well received and requested. I was basically saying "Hey mom your hygiene ain't the greatest. Here's some stuff to help" The pedicures were well received but I wasn't that a knock on their personal maintenance as well? Logically, I figured that all forms of maintenance were to be well received as a gift card. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bath soaps, oils, and pedicures are all relaxing. They are something a woman can enjoy. Bikini waxes are painful events! You gave a gift card for pain! I give myself pedicures all the time. I think feet are weird and so try to keep them as nice as possible. So when I get a gift card for one at a salon, I don't take it as a knock to my feet hygiene. I take it as "hey you've got nice feet, so take a break and let a pro take care of it for once." You've got lots to learn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of my very good friends and I have discussed pedicures as a cultural phenomenon. She's black, and said it's common in the circles she grew up in for boyfriends to pay for their girlfriends' pedicures. Most recently, she dated a white guy, and he had the audacity to make a comment IN PUBLIC about her rough feet (bad, bad move, guys). She went OFF on him then, and then to me later on more than one occasion, about how if she were dating a black man her pedicures would have been paid for, no questions asked, and that if he wanted to foot the bill he could complain about her feet, but if he didn't, he couldn't. You could just give a spa gift card, and then she could use it for whatever she wanted -- facial, pedi, mani, various waxes, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sojourner Posted November 9, 2005 Author Share Posted November 9, 2005 True confessions: I have always been slightly jealous of people with small, cute feet. Mine are not cute. Although one has a pretty flower tattoo on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laudate_Dominum Posted November 9, 2005 Share Posted November 9, 2005 [quote name='Luthien' date='Nov 9 2005, 09:26 AM']I disagree. I dont do pedicures on my feet regularly, especially when the cold Maine winters roll 'round. Im not the type to be careless with my virtue because of my lack of interest in my feet. I also just moisturize my legs and neglect my feet. I don't think thats a good way to gauge if a girl is easy. Anyway, I like toenails to be clipped, thats all I think.

The breaking boards with your bare hands is cool, and I enjoyed the physicality of it, but my feet were KILLING me at the end of each session.
