For novice ass play I would say no more than .5 inches.
For a professional the sky is the limit.

any longer than 1/8 inch and you look like an 80's cokehead.

.5 from the base?
or .5 over the finger......cause that would be long.

I cut Lukas' nails to be no longer than the tip of his finger, men with long fingernails look weird, especially since they tend to be dirty underneath. 1-2mm from where the nail bed ends is ok.

Perhaps you should post in the Maaaantime thread.
Containers like Beer...oil...and artichoke hearts!

why would i want nubs for finger tips?
That would render the nail useless if your going to keep it that short.
I use my nails for a lot of things.
Picking my nose is one of many. :wink:
I can use it to scrape, pick up, and i can even measure a teaspoon with my thumb nail...j/k

Ever since I stopped biting my nails I forget about them. I usually cut them when they get so long that they either dig into my palm and/or get in the way of drumming.
Actually, I need to go cut them now.

Mine are somewhere between Katjas and Jersey Rich's examples. I rarely let them get long enough for white to show under the edges. I like women who have Katja's example fingernails. There is a black woman at work who has nails like 3 inches long and it totally skeeves me. How can you wipe your ass like that? She brought in food one time and I just lost my appetite.

i asked a lady at a nail salon that i used to go to that same question. she says she grabs the paper using the middle section of the fingers (that section of finger after the nail part, if that makes an sense) in a pinching motion. the tips are not able to be used so its like they are not even there.

If I met her Id like to ask how she gets her clothes on, how she wipes her ass or takes care of feminine hygiene. How do you cook and shower? They seem like they can bend easily, so I wonder if they snap off?

Gross...I can't stand long nails on men. They have to be like JerseyRich's or I get grossed out.
I am unfortunately a nail biter. I have terrible anxiety! Anyhow, I try my hardest to grow them, and I never have them longer than Katja's example. Anything longer harbors germs. Plus, if you garden, try getting the dirt out.
I also think painted finger nails are gross. I must be more of a naturalist in that sense. Sometimes I paint my toenails in the summer though.
Mexi...please don't show me your nails. I can already picture them, and I am already grossed out.

Anytime I have a little length on them I'll end up bending them by accident at work and it friggin hurts.
