The Chin Hair-- a woman's arch nemisis

Ever since the hormones began raging through my body, I have dealt with a host of womanly issues. With the exception of bleeding once a month, I think that the development of chin hairs has to be the worse.

Why are they so bad? We all have them or rather get them. Yet, a woman should not get them. I have looked at my share of chins... yes, I actually looked and many a women have them. Is this part of evolution?

I am not saying that I like them. But why do I hate them? I hate them because they do not seem to be socially acceptable. I have seen many a beautiful beard on a man but not on a woman.

Women: We pluck, shave, dye, put chemicals on our chins with the hopes of killing the outgrowth of the hairy weeds that invade our skin. I found, personally, that all of these techniques cause outbreaks. At nearly 48 years old, my chin is a continuous trouble spot. But not enough to stop the plucking and picking. I have made my kids promise that when I am old and unable to take care of myself that they will pluck my chin hairs bedside.

Until society stops looking at a bearded woman as someone as part of a freak show. I will continue to have breakouts from various techniques. You'll find me in the nursing home. I am the one with the acne on my chin.
