Should men have long finger nails - As in some Asian Cultures?

Depends on the culture...





When we compare different cultures, we are being ethno-centric...in other words, we use our culture as a yardstick to measure up other cultures.





Fingernail growth is a prime example. The average North American would say that long fingernails on men is absolutely revolting, and a practice that should be left for women. In Asian cultures, long fingernails are accepted on men, and is not looked on in an 'uncommonly feminine' practice.





It is hard at a given moment not to be ethno-centric, expecially if a certain practice goes against certain morals...but for example, a bikini in North America is looked on as something normal, whereas certain cultures look on such a baring of flesh in distaste. We think other cultures are wierd, but they could probably say the same thing about us.





Ethnocentricity aside, its all about personal preference.Should men have long finger nails - As in some Asian Cultures?

handy if you play guitar, painful if your in a hurry
i dont like it! Nasty.
pleeeeeease, NO!
No, that is kinda gross. But they shouldn't be all bighten until they bleed either.....
NO!!!!!
Trust me, women do not like men with long finger nails!
Definitively. It's of so much use when it start to itch. The scratchin is superb. Besides, you can reach futher in your nosestrils and your ears, for proper cleansing.
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO definitely not.
It's a personal preference.....and personally I do not like long finger nails on men.....GROSS!
no
i personally wouldnt like it, but my b/f does, so i dont care...but its kinda odd
NO! Ewwwwww! How gross and unclean it looks!
I find it gross... Men should have short well cleaned and gromed nails. I can't stand guys with dirty hands and long nails.
If that is your culture, but it's kinda gross because some people don't take care of them. Oh yeah unless you snort cocaine, or play guitar. those are the only two things I can think of, of why men would want to have long nails. Other than that I don't really care for them
It is not something I prefer in men. I'm sure other cultures might appreciate it more.
as long as they ain't longer than mine
no
Noooo, yucky
nope ! !





it would make nosepicking painful !
Hell No
No way.
I wouldn't like it if my husband did...I think most women keep their fingernails to long!
no

please no..yuck..
Oh no no no no!! Not nice!!
