I voted pro beard for a few of reasons.

1. Its the way men were supposed to look.
2. I do not find the time often to shave, too busy with school.(rarely ever cut myself when I do)
3. I like the rugged look I get from not shaving.

seriously do you actually believe people like Julius Ceasar, Alexander the Great, and Constantine did? Jesus Christ sure didn't. Of course for some occasions it is important to shave, but for everyday life, it isn't needed.

Besides, if I wait long enough I get King Leonitus beard, not what guy can't say that is one of the coolest beards ever.

Also, another thing that I have noticed, every programmer has a beard, its like some sort of code or law, like you can't be a real programmer if you dong have a beard.

I have basic facial hair, mustache and goatee with sideburns that slightly touch my cheeks,(Good mental picure ladies, eh eh?) innyhoo, other then a friend commenting that I stand out like wolverine noone but my grandmother complains about it.

I find facial hair to be unappealing and disgusting.

You just made 6 basement forum goers run off and shave.

Hmm, the power...

I only date guys who draw all over their body with highlighters and replace their hair with Play-Doh. They must also have 12 fingers, 5 of which must be thumbs.

Have fun harvesting fingers!

thats okay, i have another fist hidden underneath my beard, and it is made of thumbs

I'm trying to grow a goatee and side-burns and because of my blonde hair and pale skin my sideburns are practically invisible, but my goatee is coming along nicely, I can only hope that it is worth it in the end.

Because if not, then all those days of sitting around and doing nothing will be for naught!

On the topic of facial hair...

It tends to trap oil on my face, so I shave it. There's also the issue that a lot of people's facial hair connotes laziness and/or lack of attention to physical appearance. It also makes some people's face look rounder. Mine for instance. My facial hair tends to disguise my jawline and soften my chin, making my face look a lot rounder than it really is. But for people with no chin, it can have the opposite effect. A fluffy goatee is vicariously acting as a chin for many people.

I ask you the question. Beard or clean shaven? Recently i grew a beard, looked alright i might add, but noticed the severe lack of female interest, be it at uni or out at night. I have recently shaven and the opinion seems to be that clean shaven is the way to go.

What do you think?
I want to know your opinion on guys with facial hair.

Bloody hell, am I looking in a bloody mirror!? The exact same thing has just happened with me, had a full beard for a year at uni - then shaved it off over Christmas. Most of my friends don't even know me without a beard, but say that I look better for it. Therefore I'm going to give you the same advice too - shave.

Full beard, I grew it in after I quit the army and haven't shaved since. I feel little need to fit in to modern day grooming preferences. Men have had beards (in Europe/parts of Asia at least) for thousands of years. It became 'unpopular' during Alexanders time as the beard got in the way of combat, 'real greeks' however saw beards as a sign of honour. If you did something cowardly you were forced to remove your beard/hair, letting everyone know you were a coward.

But the reason we don't have beards now is largely in part to ww1/2. The soldiers had to be clean shaven to wear gas masks so that there were no breaks in the seal for chemical weapons to enter. So when all these clean shaven soldiers came back from war it just became the in thing to do. Facial hair has been popular and unpopular on and off for quite some time though, I however find it ridiculous to shave every day. Seems rather pointless to me. I do keep my hair very short though, I hated my long hair getting in my mouth/eyes/food.

Baby face is yummy !
Am not gay !

 

[Kiutu]

I seem to prefer facial hair but am fine with either, but ofcourse it does matter what it looks like and the person's face cause some guys just dont look good with facial hair, while some dont look good without, but also it could just be whether you are used to seeing that face with it. Ofcourse hitting on strangers that is irrelevant.

 

[Fairee]

Personally prefer clean shaven. But wouldn't make him change just so I was happy.

 

[Red Dragon414]

I agree, it depends on what you look like, but I like goatees and the hair line/ beard thing that just traces the jaw line.. its hot on most guys. I hate it when my bf shaves. I make him keep a goatee.

 

[TKgasmic]

I hate facial hair. I shave everyday. I don't know beards and goatees just don't fit me.

 

[Andalusa]

It depends, facial hair fits on some guys and not on others.

 

[Sparrow]

Pffffffffffff. I'd love a decent beard, but nah.

 

[ChaoticLegion]

I wear a proud and mighty beard. At first it was just so I could buy liquor when I was underage, but now I'm use to the manly and philosophic connotations beards represent.

Right on, my bearded brotha! I usually sport a beard as well. I look a lot better with facial hair of some kind, and shaving is just such a chore.

I third this motion =)

 

[Ladie Au Pair]

I'm not a fan on the full beard. Some people can rock a goatee or something, but it isn't for everyone.

 

[RebelRising]

I love the full beard; it's the ultimate sign of masculinity. I hope one day to grow my beard to Rasputin-like lengths, if only to experience the inherent joy in having little old ladies point a t me and scream:

"SATAN!!!"

 

[dibblywibbles]

amen brother... a well maintained beard is the only way to go... my roommate has a terrible scraggly beard, while I have a nice trimmed beard. I definitely get out more.
