I've been wondering why DE shaving is so comforting and why I'm looking forward to it every morning. DE shaving is a subtle reminder that we have evolved from the hairy ape. My theory is that DE shaving is one of the primordial instincts of evolved men. It holds a sense of danger (cutting yourself), it's comforting and in the end you feel civilized. I compare it to other "manly" things like making fire, driving fast cars, dating exotic women. Ah well, most of those things I don't do every day anymore
