Of course we can. Some trashy people here with 2 inch long lime green talons are having some regrets and getting defensive. Fake nails run the gamut from decent looking to gutter trash. Mostly depends on length and color.

Whether it's something like this https://dndgel.com/product/ferrari-red/ or something like this https://www.pinterest.com/pin/535013630733288836/ it's still none of your business.

The only trashy thing on this whole thread is women calling other women's body parts "trashy."

Plastic nails are not body parts.

They are part of/a substitute for a nail, so yes they are.

looks trashy and pretty much only low class people have nails like that.

Truly classy people never speak of others in this way.

That’s definitely not true. They may not say that to your face but they will say it with their friends for sure. And since this forum is anonymous then anything goes.

+1. I grew up super-WASP and I assure you there is a strong code of how “things are done” and how they are not done.

It's cute how you think that your way is the right way and that people are aspiring to be like you.

Umm, what? They are embellishments, or supposed to be. You still have your own nails. Are fake lashes also a body part?

Next thing you will be demanding special accommodations for your very special “body parts”.

You’re a teen? With a husband? Or just making irrelevant comments?

Oh she is just trying so desperately to be relevant.

See that's where you make another mistake. I like my nails. My DH likes my nails. I've had them for the better part of 30 years. They were ALWAYS relevant to me. It matters not one iota what you think of them. Zero.

The difference between you and me is that I couldn't care less what you wear. It's your body and you can do with it what you like. It speaks volumes about your character that something as innocuous as my nails is bothering you SOOOO much.

The bigger differences is, I believe, the nails themselves. I've never met a smart person wearing acrylic nails.

Well, several of my med students wear them, and I'd be willing to bet quite a bit that they are smarter than you are.

Well, I hope you informed your med students that once they start clinical rotations they'll have to get rid of their long nails. No way you can scrub in properly.

Pretty sure they will figure that out before their surg rotation.

Same. Grew up with the same unwritten "code." But I'm smart enough to understand that how "things are done" in 2024 is not the same as how things were done when you "grew up."

PP here. When I return “home” things are still “done” the same way in our circles. Women I grew up with are raising their children the same way we were raised (and I am doing the same.) This area is more of a melting pot wrt culture and religion.

It’s cute that you don’t think your “style choices” affect your life negatively in any way.

My nails have affected me negatively exactly zero times, other than this ignoble thread. Never lost an opportunity as a result of my nails. Is it a WASP thing to concern yourself with such irrelevant matters? Is it a result of so many women not having careers and therefore having nothing better to do in your circles?

True. We only think it, but are well mannered enough to never say anything.
