It's time for the annual dilemma: should I get rid of all body hair for the summer season, with the annoyance of then having to epilate every day; or just let nature do its thing, meaning no full-on fem time for the next three months?
I mean, I don't have to go to the pool or the beach ...
Yeah, I do have to go. What's the point of living in a seaside resort if you don't do seaside things? Besides, the temperatures have rocketed to 32C this afternoon when normally they should be 25C in early June. It could be another very hot summer to come. Which doesn't help when you have to wear a wig or wear makeup.
I will also have to spend time looking after a relative who's sick. He went to hospital a month ago and should have been out after a week but because of complications he's still there. I don't know what painkillers they're giving him but when I saw him earlier this week he was lucid and exhausted one day but stronger yet raving the next. Scary. He'll be needing help with shopping and household things for a while after he's back home and I've agreed to do that alongside his girlfriend. He doesn't notice much in terms of whether I am hairy or not and hasn't spotted that my clothes are all of a feminine cut. Mind you, neither did my LGBT-hating sister when I saw her last month and even complimented me on my shoes (ladies' trainers). People see what they expect to see.
My other sister gave me a shiny new set of barbecue tools and they are already in use. Well, it's Friday night and it's 32C, and my simple white Dorothy Perkins vest top and Baby Angel black denim shorts are ideal for the occasion. Every moment of fem time is so precious.
I do like to be beside the seaside
Here's a shot I took from my most recent flight, of the famous Seven Sisters cliffs and Beachy Head in Southern England. It was a bit hazy that day but it still made a spectacular sight. Click to enlarge.
Enjoy the summer, wherever you are and whatever you're doing.

A set of barbecue tools and a new white Dorothy Perkins vest top. That may be just inviting trouble.
ReplyDeleteHa ha. They say that men like to cook at barbecues because it brings out their cave man instinct. My cave man instinct is barely there so I barbecue merrily in my fem way, avoiding mess. Apart from a hint of perspiration under my breasts (she said, breathlessly), I was OK. Well, apart from choosing Flying Ant Day as Barbecue Day so, yes, I admit it, there were black spots on my top by the time I'd finished! They flew off of their own accord, mind. Sue x
Delete"Every moment of fem time is so precious"
ReplyDeleteToo true, especially at the moment where there doesn't seem any immediate prospect of a full day (or more) to myself, and Susie time has to be limited to a couple of snatched hours on non-work Fridays.
Hoping things improve for you, Susie. Sue x
DeleteOh, that is a difficult decision. I don´t know how hairy you are. When I go out I shape my legs and arms with a razor. I made some epilations with a handy device some time ago - that is painful but it helps to reduce the growing. But I returned to a razor, witch is not painful. Hope your friend will be alright soon. Do you go to the beach enfemme? That ist what I never intented to do...Have a nice summer and all the best

Thank you, Violetta. I have a lot of body hair unless I deal with it constantly. The problem is being on view every day so smooth skin requires daily maintenance, and the time to do that can be hard to find. I don't do anything en femme in my location because I am not ready to come out to all the neighbours yet. Sue x
DeleteGood luck keeping the top clean and looking after your charge. 🩷
ReplyDeleteFWIW, despite my anxiety - or as they'd say in the old days, one's nerves! 😉 - no one has said anything. So, there's that, and the last time we were in Europe, I did spot quite a few gents with denuded pins, particularly on holiday on one of the islands. I think it's easier when it comes to heat, sun cream, and washing the sand/salt off. That sounds like a ready made excuse!
Also, if you are going to dewookie, I would recommend a leg wax over epilation - less painful, quicker, and longer lasting. Doesn't mean you can't top up for the rest of the summer week the epilator.
Thanks, Lynn. Everything you say is valuable. It's not being seen smooth that's the problem, it's keeping smooth with the commitments I've got.
DeleteI haven't found a suitable waxer here yet so I rely on my own efforts. The problem is being on view near naked by the pool to all the neighbours. And don't neighbours anywhere just love being nosey? So it's either a perfect trim every day, which is hard to do and find time for, or letting nature take its course.
