They already are exruciatingly short. Its not so much a nervous habit for me, I don't even notice when I'm biting my nails- it's like second nature. I've never clipped my nails once in my life, I've been biting them since I had teeth. When I was younger I tried that stuff that you put on them that tastes nasty. Then I would forget that it was on my nails and start nailbiting that nasty taste. Then I would already have the taste in my mouth so I'd just keep on chewing the rest. Worst habit ever I tell you.
Gratifying Activities: Nursing - eating, as well as mouth movement, including sucking, gumming, biting and swallowing.
Interaction with the Environment: To the infant, the mother's breast not only is the source of food and drink, but also represents her love. Because the child's personality is controlled by the id and therefore demands immediate gratification, responsive nurturing is key. Both insufficient and forceful feeding can result in fixation in this stage.
Symptoms of Oral Fixation:
* Smoking * Constant chewing on gum, pens, pencils, etc. * Nail biting * Overeating * Drinking * Sarcasm ("the biting personality") and verbal hostility

Me too. At this point I've accepted it as my personal addiction. There is no getting rid of it. I've ditched it for weeks at a time, until I'm driving somewhere and unconsciously bite all of em down. At least it won't shorten my life like smoking.

And it wouldn't matter how fine she was for me, females with nasty or too short nails, man - even stumpy thumbs are a super-duper turn off.
Even thinking about it gives my stomach the :willies:
