Being SLY!
Timmay:
OK ...dotn think I am nuts here or anything...but when someone asks me what does being SLY really mean....actually I dont know what to tell them exactly. So what do you all tell others. I have nothign against those who do the body hair trimming and all...but if that is the true meanign of being sly as in shaving your whole body....and if that isnt my style....am I still SLY? Just trying to get a grip on things here....jsut making sure I know what Im talkin about when doing things. If that doesnt make any sense at all...then jsut disregard this whole topic lol

damn good topic timm. i think "SLY" will be different for everyone. for me SLY is about a positive, and very confident attitude. what it means to you will be personal. wow this could get really deep. i am curious too. what does SLY mean to you guys?
YOSP:
I would agree with the confidence theme...the way you carry yourself with your "BOLD" head.
"SLY" also means to me, being a victim of MPB, working with what you were given and being proud of it, making the choice to go all the way instead of having the horseshoe look, and retiring the "piece".
Timmay:
Well...I havent really said what Sly means to me. To me Sly means having the ability to do things on your own actions. Not because some one else does it. Having the ability to be able to walk into a crowd and to know that you will be noticed and having the confidence to talk to those who question yoru actions. A lady this past friday at a pizza joint put it pretty plain and clear..." To be able to have the confidence that you will look good no matter what you do to yourself...and being able to walk into friends and family and holding ground on what you believe" Sly is being Sly enough to come in low under people and then feeling liek you are on top!

Well, there was this creed posted by one of our members that I though really went a long way in defining "SLY" for me...
Quote:
I refuse to be told what is or is not universally attractive.
I will instead determine for myself what I will look like and seek out others who will accept, appreciate and love me, as me, for me.
I refuse to be SOLD attractiveness.
I will instead choose the products and services that suit my purposes and work well for me.
I refuse to be shamed or guilted by the media into changing my looks.
I will instead find the body, hair, clothing style that best suits me and makes me most comfortable.
I refuse to cling to or chase my inevitably fading youth.
I will instead embrace my age and enjoy the wisdom each year brings.
I refuse to be made uncomfortable by other people.
I will instead luxuriate in the comfort I find within my own skin and will enjoy and draw confidence from the frustration my comfort causes those who would change me.
I refuse to let the superficial judgments of others affect me.
I will instead draw confidence from my knowledge of myself and show that to others.
I refuse to accept the labels of society and the individuals that live within it.
I will instead set my own standards for myself and choose who's opinions I will listen to based on my respect for them.
This is my line in the sand. I am an individual. I am my own person.
Accept me, respect me and I'll do the same for you.
Otherwise :-X
I am far to busy being SLY to be troubled by your narrow minded low self worth.
