Hmm, well, you can hate or love something 'with a passion'...
It might have been my phrasing. When I said he hates brushing his hair with a passion, the passion refers to his hatred, rather than the act of brushing, so I didn't mean that he dislikes brushing strongly, but that he strongly dislikes brushing.

Boobs are fun, but I had trouble for quite a while, since I have not got much boob myself.

ml - Are you a literalist? Surely you can use brushing as a blanket term for any kind of hair de-tangling method? He just dislikes having untangled hair, I think.

Yes, I am, much to the amusement of my friends. And I don't remember hearing it as a blanket term here personally. o.o There are so many different kinds of brushes, I think I've seen four or five different ones? And they are used for different styling purposes and types of hair, and the combs are the same. And because brushing only works for me when my hair is longer over combing (I broke so many combs as a child with my long hair, my grandmother ended combing my hair as soon as I got done my bath otherwise it was impossible to comb or brush properly) because of how tangled it gets. Which is why when my hair gets longer I just tie it back in a ponytail to keep out of my face because just about anything else and I'll have a head full of knots.

Must be hard having fine and easily knotting hair...
Mine is pretty smooth and sleek. But the problem with that is that I can't style it at all because everything (hair ties, pins etc) just falls out of my hair. It's just too shiny.
