Honestly, the more I think about it, I think plain clear fake nails ought to be included in first aid kits. Not for style choices though, more for those times you accidentally break or rip a nail all the way down into the flesh, you can patch it up and not have to outright leave the injury exposed to the elements.

As far as style choices, well you do you, it hardly matters to me.

I’d be able to reach and scratch the center of my back when it happens to itch.

Can confirm, from the Southern USA, back in the 1990s anyways.

Yeah, our school had completely open shower rooms for gym class. It made me very uncomfortable, so as a result I didn’t participate in school gym sports and as a result I failed gym, for not participating.

After school, I enjoyed the hell out of bicycle riding and tree climbing, which basically helped meet my food pyramid exercise of eat one bicycle a day, or however that worked…

Still, those open school gym showers gave me the absolute fucking creeps!
