Every now and then, to amuse myself with precisely how UN-woman-friendly wikipedia is, I check on the manicure article. Go ahead, read it yourself, I'll be here laughing: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manicure

"A professional Nail Technician or Manicurist will use a written, verbal, and observational consultation to determine the condition of a client's natural nails."

"Since the 1970s, the overwhelming majority of professional salons now implement the use of electric nail files which are faster and yield higher quality results."

Even the basic definition is SO FUCKED UP: "A manicure consists of filing, shaping of the free edge, treatments, massage of the hand and the application of polish."

But the best part has to be the opener: "This article is about a beauty treatment for fingernails. For French nails such as used in carpentry, see Nail (fastener)#wire nails." Thanks for the tip, dude.
