Giving new meaning to the manly art of shaving

McClatchy News Service

The best a man can get? Apparently, advice on how to landscape his man drapes.

Gillette recently launched a series of instructional videos at gillette.com about body shaving for guys, including one on groin grooming.

The justification for trimming below-the-belt tresses: ``The tree looks taller when there's no underbrush.''

Well. Can't argue with that logic.

The demo depicts a cartoon dude swiping a razor over his pixilated parts and includes tips on preventing ''equipment'' damage.

The company also recommends shaving armpits because ``an empty stable smells better than a full one.''

In related news, Gillette is changing its tagline to ``Turning men into chicks since 2009.''
