This is probably an ad post.....
Anyway, one's size has nothing to do with whether or not you look like and/or are a boy.
The Norelco Bodygroom is decent, but it's no more special than other mid-priced razors. You'll notice on the box that it says *not* designed for the face. That's because it's not a very close shave, and *isn't* a smooth shave on the rest of your body. It just doesn't feel quite as stubbly as a hand razor because it cuts the hairs flat from the top down and not at sharp angles from the bottom up. Almost all electric razors cut the same way. Depending on skin type, it can easily leave one still feeling very scratchy afterward or within the next day. The only notable thing about the Bodygroom is the fact that it has trimmers on each side of the foil to clip the hairs short enough to enter the foil, however women's razor's have had that function since the 70's. Oh, I forgot, it has a very funny website advertising it. Hair tends to clog rather quickly in the bodygroom, so if you do have one, be sure to turn it to the side and run water under each sides trimmer to prevent buildup.
A higher quality face razor(around $70and up), will do a better job, and sugaring will do an even better job. Above $70, most of the price increase comes from "self cleaning" functions and not improved shaving which are simply pools of alcohol and glycerin that the razor is turned on in much like the clean button on blenders.
And oh will EEK's hair bristle at the OP, heh.
edit: I forgot to include not to use a rotary razor down there, as the very thin skin can get caught in the slots. Reciprocating motions with a fine foil guard is one's best bet.
