Jesus these comments scream basement dweller. You don’t have to like what someone does with their own body to accept it. It doesn’t hurt you so don’t worry about it. God forbid people have some self expression

Great job insulting people for having a differing opinion.

I accept that people sometimes keep their nails long. That acceptance comes with a caveat that I will not be eating anything handled by hands with long nails.

God forbid people have some self expression

They do indeed forbid it.

10 "If you go to battle against your enemies, and the LORD your God delivers them into your control, you may take some prisoners captive. 11 If you see among the prisoners a beautiful woman and you desire her, then you may take her as your wife. 12 Bring her to your house, but shave her head and trim her nails

Deuteronomy 21

Oh man, religions are batshit crazy.

This article has the same approach to word count as a high schooler writing a paper.

I sometimes have medium length nails (3-5 mm past the fingertip), though I tend to just grow my own out, and I do it entirely for myself. I have a bunch of different kinds of nail polish and stencils for making cool patterns and it satisfies my inner elementary school librarian urge to dress up for even very minor holidays.

People have come up to me and told me that my nails are too long for them to find attractive, which is a bizarre non sequitur imo. I don’t know why the assumption is that any self-decoration is intended as a sexual signal: my ideal nail-based interaction is that a little kid asks about them and I get to tell them about Arbor Day or national soup day or something.

Sometimes they make life more difficult, and then I either find workarounds (opening pull tabs with a spoon, for example) or cut them, depending on how much time I have and how much I like my current nails.

I get that they’re not for everyone, but I like them, so I wear them. It’s okay if others don’t like them, they don’t have to wear them.

Why not just declaw at that point?

noodlejetski ,

it’s all in the article, with a paragraph dedicated to you. and it’s free to read!

Typing with long nails is the embodiment of “beauty is pain.”

The pain is real, but the beauty is subjective.

To me long nails are ick

The longer the more ick

I will never forget when I had to help a coworker with her laptop, she had long nails that had worn grooves in her keyboard keys.

She typed on her nails, the sound it made was terrible.

It’ was a status thing. Those with manual labor jobs usually can’t have long nails, so long nails means they’re above manual labor. So the rich in the past did that, and now everybody wants to do that so and it becomes a beauty thing.

Long nails can look pretty, and while I’m sure this would help people with long nails, I think it would just give me an RSI or just be differently frustrating.

No thanks. I’ll paint my short nails so I can—you know—use my hands. And that’s free.

I’m not a fan of the long nails because it hurts my insides.

AlligatorBlizzard ,

Tell your girlfriend to get a queer manicure next time.

Also fecal matter and bacteria are stored in abundance under long nails.

This thing costs about the same as one good set of nails

Don’t use that on your bum.

It’s a sharp bidet.

A chiclet membrane to go over your non-mechanical keyboard, it’s like double hell.

Nougat ,

Sounds like typing on a keyboard made of Jujubes.
