Trying to be Scruffy

Trying to be Scruffy

With a bit of encouragement from my partner, I decided to “try to be scruffy”. Are you going to vote?
I am pretty much hairless, facially. This is a picture snapped this morning, after not shaving for four days. And yes, if you look harder, you’ll see something.

Do you know who to vote for? We’ll see how it goes. Bruce enjoys it, and I’m a bit self-conscious about it. I keep feeling dirty. Are you voting for betterment of humanity or for your pocket book and fear? I guess that’s part of being a bit scruffy isn’t it?

Do you know you’re voting for me too? Is it a bit dirty of me to have inserted the voting messages amongst my facial hair? There certainly is a lot of room there, and being dirty is in fact, a part of being scruffy.

    My vote will be for humanity.

    But ultimately you need to decide how dirty you want to be

    (1) You are a real cutie whatever way you decide to go.
    (2) Scruffy is hard to look to keep…unless you buy one of those specialty shavers that cuts hair to a certain length
    (2) Personally, I like the clean look myself, espcially with guys that I date. However, since you and your partner have to live with it, it all boils down to whatever makes you BOTH happy. If Bruce likes it, and you don’t, then you shouldn’t do it, IMHO.

    This is shallow. I like the attention. LOL.
    Bruce loves the change. I don’t think I’m going to keep it for a while. And I don’t think he does too. It’ll go eventually.

    Thank all the kind listeners. Let me enjoy the hotness for a week. 😛

    And I just wanna be the very whore me. Scruffy or not.

    You look good with it. Wow.

    I sooo like it when Jay keeps his stubble but he’s always clean shaven.

  11. John Ong

    Kay, oh thank you. 🙂
    You are exactly like Bruce. I am usually clean shaven too. And he likes the stubble. And I like the extra attention.

    Even though my mom thinks I look dirty. LOL.

    I just wanted to comment i really like ur podcasts…some of them are really hilarious…i like the way u laugh, its so infectious, i sometimes find myself laughing with you too,especially the one on penang hokkien…also i just listened to all three parts of the kay pod and i really really liked it…given that i had visited his blog often when i first started visiting Malaysian gay blogs last yr…but i didn’t visit for a long already so it was nice to hear not only his updates but also to hear the nice voice behind the blog….
