How many of you bite your nails when nail cutter is not available?  

ewww no I dont, biting your nails is the equivelent to licking a toilet bown which Im pretty sure none of us will do!! I tell this fact to all nail biters and so far all of them have stopped biting their nails!! No I would rather just wait until a nail clipper is available!!!

Nah I don't bite my finger nails off. I just let them grow and cut them with nailcutters. If there are no nail cutters, I go out and buy one. It's not nice biting nails and it could give you stomach diseases or finger wounds.

What an interesting question! Many people have the habit of simply biting their nails all the time or out of nervousness, which I never do. But just the other day, I broke two nails so that the ends were crooked, and I did bite my nails to make them even, because I had no clippers handy. So yes, I do bite my nails out of neccessity, but not out of habit.

I would never bite my nails, who knows what's under those things? My older brother used to bite his and we put this stuff on them that made them taste terrible, he quit doing it for a while but I think its a mindless act.

Hey Bebs! You know, that is one thing I can honestly say
that I never did! And that is really surprising! I never was
a nail biter!lol And being that I am such a nervous person
it is really strange that I never bit my nails! I always had
long and strong and beautiful nails which I took very good
care of and manicured myself and polished! But, sadly about
two years ago they started to split and break and now won't
grow long anymore and I don't know why! But, I keep trying
to get them to grow and keep them manicured the best way I
can hoping they will grow again and still keep them polished!

I haven't tried that Bebs,not ever! LOL! I hate to see people doing that too but there are really who are use to do it even in public...
I will not stop looking for nail cutter when I need it very badly and fortunately, we always have one in the house! LOL!

No, I never engaged in nail biting even as a child! I never had that mannerism but my grandchildren are fond of that and I'd always hit their hands whenever I see them. I mean why eat the fingernails! Ha!ha!ha! No not really eating but it has become some sort unavoidable gesture on their part. One of my twins loves to bite his finger nail so I assigned the other twin to watch him all the time so he could be stopped from this habit.

My nails are big enough and todays is wednesday. Hence I will cut them apart with no mercy. I am a cold blooded killer, who never uses his teeth to kill people. Teeth were the most effective weapon for old days females but I am not female and most importantly I am a cold blooded killer hence I will kill them with nail cutter and the good thing is that ther will not be a single drop of blood. ha ha ha ha ha ha!

Hello Bebs yes, I've been doing this before at my younger age. I stopped it when I found it on myself a mannerism. Whatever I would be doing that need focusing my hand automatically went to my mouth biting my nails. A sort of a comfort zone of mine.
Another thing is that finger-biting habit can remove the enamel of your teeth that's why I refrain anymore from doing it..Nice topic...

I hate to see anyone biting their fingernails. I have not done so myself. My daughter had the habit of biting her nails when she was a kid and I would give her a knock on her knuckles everytime she did that. She too has now started growing her nails.
