So, Arkham Knight was officially released yesterday; I've watched some gameplay videos, and it really seems amazing...
Since I won't be playing that game anytime soon (because I don't plan on buying an Xbox-One since a while), I actually intentionally spoiled a few elements of the story by watching random gameplay videos; players are in for quite a few surprises. Most notably, the Joker will be in there in one way or another; Mark Hamill reprises his role of the Joker in that one in quite an extensive way (despite previous rumors that Arkham City officially was his last involvement with the character). I don't think that this is a major spoiler however, the first few seconds of the game hint at Joker's involvement rather obviously.
The very first words of the game (pronounced by commissioner Gordon) are also quite disturbing: "This is how it happened; this is how the Batman died."
If anyone intends to play that game, I'd be really glad to hear your commentaries on it.
And here's the introduction for those interested. Get ready to be spooked at some point, Scarecrow is the main villain of Arkham Knight after all:

Well Serene I'm about 15 years older than anyone you'd want in a promotional vid but I've always been a fan of helping a good writer, director and producer trio in assisting to finance a high quality porn movie. For me that would mean something with lavish looking sets, a realistic plot, good looking actors and actresses and done with some reasonable expectation of making our money back so a good lawyer that deals with that type of thing would be essential. I don't/won't want to be any more than a 10-15% investor in such a project and I'd have to like the script, approve of the actors and actresses and the technical and professionals working on the project. If you are ever interested in such a project and can help with putting the team together just drop me a note and I'll meet up with you and listen to your thoughts.

Fuck man, I was gonna draw a felix head and lushstories.com on a girl's titties but I don't think that will beat a fucking documentary.
Good luck!
And now that you've defiantly responded in this thread, you'll actually be the main feature of my documentary.
Seriously though, I forgot to mention it in my opening post, but this will be in fact a short music video (only around 1:30).
Hopefully produced with trippy music and edgy imagery...

Hello wonderful people of Lush,
I might participate in the 'Get Creative Competition', and seek your help. Essentially, I want to create some sort of promotional video for Lush where different aspects of the site will be presented.
If you're interested in making a tiny cameo-appearance in my video, please let me know in this thread. I'm mostly interested in showing a few quick glimpses of various profiles and also short excerpts from different stories. I thought about simply presenting fictional people/citations, but it could be interesting to present genuine people from Lush. I can't promise that everyone who'll respond in this thread will be featured in that video, but I'll try my best to thank you for your voluntary participation.
I'm still not 100% sure that I'll actually produce this video, but it might be a fun thing to do. Thanks in advance for your contribution!

Quote by Buz
Just a word of advice to the guys, don't let your wife or girlfriend or both, talk you into using Nair on your testicles. I don't care if it does say Nair for Men, don't do it.
@ Buz and Dancing_Doll...
I actually tried that Nair cream a while back, and I'm fairly certain that I applied some on my balls at some point. That guy in the video is definitely putting up a show, this cream is far from being as harsh as he wants to make it appear. Of course I tested it on safer regions prior (ie. my pubis), but it wasn't any irritating. I could barely feel it, it was similar to applying Head and Shoulders shampoo on my skin.
It produces a strong chemical reaction with your hair, but I was actually surprised at how my skin was mostly unaffected by it. Obviously though, your own experience may vary, always test it on a small patch of skin prior to applying it to sensitive regions.
It wasn't all that effective for removing my pubic hair however. Pubic hair is rather coarse and that cream only dissolved around 75% of my hair; I still had to shave with a razor afterward. You also have to apply a rather generous amount of it and leave it there for around 10 minutes. You might as well simply shave with a razor: it's much cheaper and isn't actually more time-consuming.
It might be worth it for hairy men who want to remove lighter hair on their chest/back however. I can't really comment on that though, I'm really not that hairy.

I'm 5'11
5'9 or 5'2- 4' 10 (yes I dated a girl that short and she was awesome)
I really can't decipher what your own answer implies... do you actually mean that any woman between 4'10" and 5'9" is good?
Anyway, I'm 5'9" myself and my favored height for women is generally around 5'2", which is coincidentally the exact height of my current girlfriend (and I had that preference way before meeting her). Short women do catch my attention a bit more, but to be fully honest I'd be plenty satisfied with any woman shorter than me.

Wow, I actually didn't think that he was that old. I imagined that he was closer to 80-85 year-old.
He still appeared in some movies in the last few years (The Hobbit notably), he sure had his passion at heart until the very end.
Rest in peace...

You could work it into the fun and get kinky with it. Give her a whip and some stiletto boots and you can play her waxing-boy to start a session.
Actually, that was kind of my idea when I initially proposed it to her... waxing each other and making it a fun sexual experience. More as something sensual though: dimming the lights, lighting up a few candles, and playing with that hot wax while venerating each other's genitals. It was fun at first (devoting myself to her pussy and all that), but I soon realized that I still needed to get the job accomplished, which can take a while. And since I had to be rather conscientious during the whole process and that my girlfriend couldn't really move, the waxing job ended up being a mood-killer more than anything: I rapidly just hoped that we were over with it, and that I could finally fuck her properly. Needless to say, I didn't exactly feel like waxing my own self when I finally finished the job on my girlfriend.
Having said that, I know that some people use crock-pots to melt big quantities of wax for wax play. I love wax play myself, so I definitely could use my own Gigi wax warmer for that. It's very easy to control the temperature with it, so that could be great; I could even add mineral oil to the mix to lower the temperature of the wax. I'm currently already quite satisfied with the candles that I use (Glade Jar Candles), but that could be awesome to indulge into a huge nasty wax-fest with my girlfriend.
Hmm, who knows... maybe my Gigi kit will be featured in the Playroom section in the near future.

Quote by Dancing_Doll
Mostly that I'm going to end up taking off layers of skin because I fucked up the temperature of the wax or my technique isn't right or that I'm going to have to go over the same spot multiple times because of some mistake, thereby prolonging the pain. Or maybe I'll end up with some ingrown hair disaster that will make me look like I have herpes for the next two weeks.
The girl that waxes me does a Brazilian so fast that it's quite bearable. The worst is that little front patch above the clit - which is probably why so many opt for a landing strip or some little pube-shape. I still prefer to go bare though and really, it's only one 'rip' and you're done. If I was doing it myself... ugh, I'd hate to have to do repeats if I didn't get a clean rip the first time.
Okay, I knew I shouldn't have asked, haha. You're perfectionist about those things and I respect that.
Seriously though, concerning the temperature of the wax, ingrown hair, pain, etc., the Gigi kit is by far the best at-home solution I personally ever came across (compared to those over-the-counter Nair kits or similar products). I keep the wax warmer at the same setting during the whole process and the temperature is just perfect; they actually instruct you to leave it at the 'low' setting when the wax is properly liquefied, I really don't have to mess around with it. And I've always been prone to ingrown hair and never had any with that kit; the worst thing that ever happened to me is that some hair wasn't entirely removed from the root and grew back faster than the rest. And I really don't understand the reason behind it, but the Hard Wax really isn't painful when I pull on it (about a 2/10 whereas those Nair kits were closer to 6/10 or 7/10); it's weird, but it's almost pleasurable in a way.
My girlfriend is quite perfectionist about those things too (I guess every girl is), but when she witnessed my own results she only needed a bit of convincing to have me try it on her; she keeps a landing-strip though, so we didn't have those 'clit issues' that you mention. But yeah, although it was a fun experience the first time, it definitely could become a chore if I had to wax her every month (especially when we could be fucking passionately instead).
Anyway, it might not be for everybody, but for at-home hair removal it's definitely what I'd recommend.
Cryptic Vigilante
It varies greatly for me, but it's generally between 15-60 minutes for a second round (if I'm actually up for a second round). If I'm in the right mood and the girl knows how to entice me though, generally just a short round of cunnilingus (15-20 minutes) and I'm good to go; licking a girl's pussy while seeing my cumshot on her body turns me on in a major way, so that helps quite a lot. I can still achieve it under 5-10 minutes in very special circumstances (as in barely getting soft before fucking again), but that's much more of a rarity and rather unexpected when it happens.
The third round is another story however, it's usually more like 45+ minutes and I might not be as hard the whole time. And I can only rarely manage to cum three times in the same session.

I still can't bring myself to do the pube self-waxing - too paranoid that something will go wrong. I get the brazilians done professionally. I wax my own legs/underarms though with wax-strips. That's pretty painless and easy.
I guess at-home waxing has its pros and cons. For me personally though, I only see the pros: going to a professional salon doesn't particularly thrill me (I'm not as 'openly girly' in real-life as I am on these forums, haha), I'd have to pay the full price since that's the only procedure I'd ask for ($50 I guess), I can actually shape my pubic hair exactly the way I want to, I love watching porn while doing it, etc.
But yeah, for a girl it might not be always worth it. It took me around 1 hour to wax my girlfriend (pussy and ass), while she can get it done for only around $20 as part of her 'waxing bundle'. I actually earn more than $20/hour at my daily job (and so does my girlfriend), so it isn't exactly cost-effective in that case; she might as well get it done professionally during the week and then have quality-time with me during the weekend.
I'm not quite sure what you have in mind when you mention that 'something could go wrong' however; I think I'd better not ask, haha. Seriously though, it's very easy/safe to perform, I really can't think of any particular way someone could mess it up in a major way. I'd even say that it's actually a much more complicated procedure for a guy, there are a lot less flat surfaces (ie. the balls and the base of the dick); waxing my girlfriend was relatively simple by comparison. I don't wax my balls/butt-crack however, I prefer to simply shave them every morning under the shower.
For a girl, the only part she'd have a hard time doing all by herself is her butt-crack; I tried waxing my own butt-crack once and it wasn't quite feasible. A girl that doesn't mind simply shaving her butt-crack might see the Gigi kit as a great option; if she prefers having it waxed though, yeah, she might as well go to a beauty salon and have the whole thing waxed professionally.

I doubt that many people named their child 'Adolf' after WWII...
Quote by [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adolf
Wikipedia (Adolf)[/url]]Stigmatization
During the 19th and early 20th century, 'Adolf' was a common name for babies in German-speaking countries. However, because of negative associations with the Nazi dictator Adolf Hitler, it has become rare as a given name for males since the end of World War II. It remains common among people born before the war, who are now elderly. Adolf Dassler, the founder of Adidas, ended up using the nickname 'Adi' in his professional life and for the name of his company.
Similarly, the French version, 'Adolphe' - previously a fairly common name in France and the name of a classic French novel - has virtually disappeared, along with Italian 'Adolfo'.
However, the Spanish and Portuguese version, 'Adolfo', has not become stigmatised in the same way. It is still in common use in Spanish and Portuguese speaking countries.
In the Netherlands many men who had been given the name 'Adolf' changed their name to 'Dolf' after World War II.

I actually bought one of these about 3 years ago to remove my pubic hair. The model I have is the Philips HP6401 which was highly recommended by many reviewers (for the price) and which I only paid around $35 on Amazon; I also remember considering buying the model shown in the OP (the Emjoi), which was available for around $45. I definitely preferred buying the Philips because... well it looked a lot less girly.

And here's what they say about pain, which is pretty accurate of my own personal experience:
And they also include this 'pain chart' in the link:
I'm not sure where you intend to use an epilator on your body, but from my own experience I can tell that to remove pubic hair it fucking hurts like hell (emphasis absolutely necessary here). I managed to use my epilator only once for my pubic region and the pain really was unbearable, an easy 10/10 on the pain scale (and my pain tolerance is usually pretty good). I had to take short breaks at times because it hurt so badly I actually began feeling nauseous. And the other thing is, you somehow have to force yourself into that pain for quite a long period of time before the job is finally accomplished (about 45 minutes in my case to remove my pubic hair). Seriously, I wasn't aware that something could hurt that badly before that experience.
I also had many red bumps and ingrown hairs on my pubis for about a week after using my epilator (though I personally seem to be prone to those conditions according to my past shaving experiences). And some hairs weren't completely removed from the root either, as I could still feel them on the surface of my skin as if I simply shaved my pubis.
I also just reached for my epilator to test it on the back of my hand, and it still hurts pretty badly. I assume that using it for the legs would induce a similar level of pain; the inside of the thighs and the tibias could be particularly painful (as shown in the chart above). And as they mention in the link I provided, every epilator hurts pretty much the same no matter how much you'll invest for it.
I wish I could offer you a more positive review, but my own experience really was awful. Some women rely on epilators and they seem to tolerate the pain fairly well however, so your own mileage may vary. I guess the only way to find out if it would be appropriate for you would be to buy one and test it yourself. The model that I bought is technically a pretty decent one available for only $30-35, so in the worst case scenario you'll only lose a few dollars (as I did myself). I definitely wouldn't recommend investing $100+ for an epilator right off the bat however.
Seriously though, the Gigi Waxing Kit that I bought last year really is a fantastic option for hair removal. I personally only use it to remove my pubic hair with the Brazilian Hard Wax, but they also sell many different waxes/creams/resins that you can use with the same Wax Warmer unit to remove hair at different places on your body. I can vouch that the Brazilian Wax is of super-high quality (extremely professional product) and I assume that the rest of their line is just as equally great. And it isn't actually more expensive than buying an epilator (around $40 for the basic kit).
I really can't explain why, but removing my pubic hair with the Gigi Waxing Kit doesn't hurt at all; I'd say it's only about a 2/10 on the pain scale, and that's actually on my most sensitive regions (the underside of my dick mostly). It's quite strange because technically using an epilator is a very similar procedure, but that's the way it is for me. I also tried it on my girlfriend once (I did her entire pubis/butt-crack region) and it wasn't any painful for her either. She prefers having it done at her beauty salon however, as they only charge her about $20 more to wax her genitals if she also gets her legs waxed (for a total price of around $60-70).
Another advantage of using wax is that you can also trace a nice defined shape on your pubis (eg. triangle, landing-strip, etc.). You can simply trace a shape on your pubis with a black marker, and then apply wax precisely on the contour and pull it; that's what I do myself. You'd really have a hard time achieving that with an epilator.
Anyway, the Gigi Waxing Kit really is what I'd recommend for body-hair removal. It's cheap, it's easy, it's painless... and it's even fun to use (I actually wax my pubis while watching porn, having a hard-on is quite advantageous to wax my dick properly).
And just in the off chance that people might think that I'm bullshitting them about my experiences with those products (sorry for the awful handwriting):
Note: I've waxed my pubis around 6-7 times yet and I'm still on my first can of Hard Wax. And if you notice on the picture above, my can of Hard Wax is still half full. Considering that a can of Hard Wax only costs $10-15, that's an initial investment of $40 and then only about $1 each time you wax your pubis. Truly a fantastic product!

Quote by EpilatorCentral
Beauty is pain. Painless epilator? What an oxymoron. None of the epilators I tested were significantly less painful than others. They all hurt pretty much the same though the wet and dry ones were more much more bearable under a lather. Snatching out hair from the hair follicle isn’t exactly going to feel like a relaxing spa massage no matter what the marketing says. The discomfort gets less the more you use it. After about 3 or 4 uses, it feels like a small tug.
If you are like me, the first time you place the epilator on your skin you are going to say, “Ow, Ow, OWWWWWWWWW.” My best advice is don’t pull the epilator away. The pain hurts so bad that it doesn’t hurt anymore. I think the endorphins kick in after a few minutes to help mask the discomfort.
Don’t epilate anywhere close to your “monthly” visitor, when you body is the most sensitive. Wait 2 weeks after your period.
If you have waxed or tweezed before, the pain is much more bearable. With waxing you are ripping out all the hairs at the same time. With epilating, you are ripping just a few hairs out at a time. It feels like tiny pin pricks or stings when the hair is removed.
Certain areas tend to hurt more than others. Relatively speaking, the legs aren’t bad. It feels like little rubber band snaps. The best place to
start is the calves as this is the least painful area. The higher you get on the thigh, the more painful it becomes. Bony areas like the ankles and knees hurt like %$%%. Epilating the underarms and bikini area is serious death row because not only are there a ton of nerves but the hair is thicker and coarser.

Nobody Home - Pink Floyd (1979)
I've got a little black book with my poems in
Got a bag with a toothbrush and a comb in
When I'm a good dog they sometimes throw me the bone in
I got elastic bands keeping my shoes on
Got those swollen hand blues
I got thirteen channels of shit on the TV to choose from
I've got electric light
And I've got second sight
I got amazing powers of observation
And that is how I know
When I try to get through
On the telephone to you
There'll be nobody home
I've got the obligatory Hendrix perm
And the inevitable pinhole burns
Now all down the front of my favorite satin shirt
I've got nicotine stains on my fingers
I've got a silver spoon on a chain
Got a grand piano to prop up my mortal remains
I've got wild staring eyes
And I've got a strong urge to fly
But I got nowhere to fly to
Ooh, babe when I pick up the phone
There is still nobody home
I've got a pair of Gohills boots
And I got fading roots...

Quote by Hytherion
Age.
Just because you are an older woman, does not always mean that you are mature/ more desirable.
Just because you are a girl, does not always mean that you are an immature princess
This... it really isn't anything else than age. Those 'it's all about maturity' answers all sound very graceful, but at the end of the day it's simply a matter of age; I doubt that many people would call a mature 23-year-old college girl a 'college woman' (haha), and conversely I doubt that any immature woman older than 40-year-old would be referred to as 'a girl'.
I know that a similar question was asked in Ask the Gals a few days ago (man vs boy), but 'boy' and 'girl' don't quite have the exact same connotation. Young males can be referred to either as a 'boy' or a 'guy', whereas young females only have the term 'girl'. When you're calling an adult male 'a boy' you're pretty much implying that he has a childish behavior, but the terms 'guy' and 'girl' simply refer to a younger person.

Leaders and Followers - Bad Religion (1994)
There's the image of a man
Who commands a high opinion
But he hides his hatred with a sheepish grin
And beside him flanking closely
Are the boisterous hollow masses
Who lap up whatever trickles in
This intercourse of nature
This vulgar social pastime
Reflects the lowest mark of our progress
And the few who ride peripheral
Maintain subtle advantage
Fighting hard to abstain and redress
Do you know your place
In the big charade?
Are you more than they?
Leaders and followers
(Followers and leaders)
Leaders and followers
(Followers and leaders)
Recognition by proximity
And a brand new face
Just a smidgen of success pie
And a pinch of social grace
You can play with the big boys
Or you can tell them what to do
But sooner or later there's another one like you
The voyeuristic public
Of which we're all a part
Maintains perspective on the human play
And while many have desires
Of joining in the show
Many turn and go the other way
Tell me do you know your place
In the big parade?
Are you fear and shame?
