    A paradox:

    The village barber (a man), shaves every man in the villiage who does not shave himself.

    So...

    Who shaves the barber?

    Mango,

    how can he shave himself? He shaves every man in the village who does not shave himself.

    RM95, it said the village barber.

    Option 1 - He shaves himself, he doesn't live in the village.

    Option 2 - Who said the barber shaves? Perhaps he doesn;t need to or wears a long beard.

    All the other men don't shave the barber (referred to as "himself" in the original), so he shaves the other men too.

    It can't be a woman since the original post said the barber was a man.
