No , i don't even bite my finger nails i find it gross for some reason.

No, but my son did when he was little! I discouraged this behavior, however. It seems rather unsanitary to me, but I wouldn't judge others for it (I might not kiss them, either). ;)
-
I do. Then I try to break the habit and now I go biting my pens. you can see the bite marks there
-
No but I do bite the dry skin beside them. I try to grow my nails when I can but my husband bites his down past the quick.

Yes, sometimes my wife gives me hell for not using a nail clipper.
-
never did,biting nails indicates nervousness.
-
no, other people's, I can afford to splurge.
-
Sometimes I do...if they are long. They are very soft, so if I don't get them out of the way, they get caught and break painfully.
-
yes.
-
Yes I do right now. I guess it's the stress of this week. Half my nails are gone. I had stopped for years but on occasion it happens. I'm sure when I'm feeling better it will end and I'll be okay again.
-
Only my toenails...
-
I clip... I touch money, a lot, and so do many other people before the money gets to me, so I never put my hands/fingers in my mouth.
-
I am a reformed nail biter so I try to file them before I get my teeth near them. But I don't use the clippers on my hands, only toenails, as it leaves too rough an edge and I might be tempted to chew it off.
-
I used to bite my nails when I was young. But now I clip my nails. I've been clipping my nails since I was 19 or 20.
-
Not at all.
-
No, I don't.
-
If I could get my foot that close to my mouth I woul give it my best shot.
-
All the time. It's not like I don't want nice finger nails and it's not like I don't want to stop, but the fact of the matter is, I can't help it. Most of the time it is a completely unconscious process now, I have no idea that I'm doing it. And when I am aware of it, it's like I can't help myself, I know I shouldn't and I don't want to, but I do it anyway. It's like a mild compulsion (I have stopped myself a couple of times).
-
Yes, but only because I am too cheap to buy clippers.
-
Nope..never was a nail biter :)

Nope. I work in a machine shop.

Bite. It's horrible and disgusting and I cannot stop....I do it subconciously :|

I should, i need more calcium in my diet.

I used to, until about ten years ago. I was having a nibble, and suddenly thought "it's about time I stopped doing this" So I stopped and have never bitten them since. My nails have never looked better.
-
I did when I was a kid. Stopped at about 15 when I was no longer flexible enough. Never stopped eating my fingernails.
-
I did when I was a kid. I would probably blow out my knee if I try now.
-
My 4 year old daughter likes to bite hers and when I asked her to bite mine her mother started screaming. Geez, why would someone get so upset?

In the past, I have cut them and washed them and then bitten them afterwards. I haven't bitten them for a while now though.
-
Yes, How can I stop?

I clip them sometimes but as long as they're pretty clean/ as long as they seem it, I prefer biting 'em. Look nicer and are just nicer all round
