Old wives tales
|
Yesterday someone told me that eating ice cream with fruit is bad for your child and that after eating fruit you should not eat anything for 15 minutes, anyone ever heard these or know if there is a grain of truth in them or can share any others that you may have heard.

Treading in dog shit is good luck.
Eating cheese before bed gives you nightmares.

Talking of cutting has reminded me of being a kid, and asking the barber what a strange mesh stretched over a circular metal frame was for. Apparently amongst the old men of the time, there was a belief that the nutrients in your hair leaked out when you cut the ends off. So after they'd had their hair cut, they'd have the singed to seal them up. And this mesh instrument was used in process, presumably to stop it setting light to their hair?

Apparently cutting your toe nails on a Sunday is unlucky.
Cut them on Monday, you cut them for health; cut them on Tuesday, you cut them for wealth; cut them on Wednesday, you cut them for news; cut them on Thursday, a new pair of shoes; cut them on Friday, you cut them for sorrow; cut them on Saturday, see your true love tomorrow; cut them on Sunday, the devil will be with you all the week.

No point you non-baldies shooting the messenger. It's my loins that make the rules, not me.

Nurse. They probably 'seem more masculine' because they look like a dick with a face painted on it. Same reason, at the opposite end of the spectrum, that women wearing red lipstick is traditionally seen as sexually provocative.

Bald men are much sexier. They seem more masculine.

Using your left hand to wank feels like someone else is doing it.
Unless you are of course, left handed

Bald men are more virile.
Clearly made up by a bald bloke trying to get his nuts in.
Also on the pregnant women theme, hot curry and sex will bring on labour, blatantly put out there by the future father as a favoured last meal and bunk up before the sleepless nights kick in.

Clearly an old wives tale designed to encourage men to agree to having babies
