Don’t take this as a slam against Falling Skies or Walking
Dead or any of the post-apocalyptic shows I love.
It’s just that I noticed how clean and tidy the women in
these shows are.
I just binged on Falling Skies and most of the
men have stubble or beards. This is to indicate that regular grooming isn't possible.
Nor should it be possible, based on references to a lack of
hot or even running water. And since
they carry their belongings on their backs part of the time, I don’t think a
razor and shaving cream would be high priority.
Yet the women have clean, bouncy hair and clear skin.
I wish.
An hour working out in my yard leaves me with flat, sweaty,
lank hair. And a red face full of
freckles.
Four days driving truck without a shower and I had to resort to pony tails and baseball caps.
A month away from tweezers or razor and I would be able to
compete with the guys for best mustache.
Add to that, their clothes all fit. Different sized women, scrounging for clothes, manage to find better fitting garments than I can when I go shopping.
Maybe I’m just jealous.
I know I’ll never look that good after the apocalypse.
