I have heard that saying many times and it makes no sense.

You should be shaving your butt then too?
Why not shave your whole body?

this is so funny, some here think a beard would make them men, and then other shave to please others and others care if the other shave or not shave ...

I'm only growing my beard in hopes that, with time, I'll actually have a full beard at some point in the future. When that happens. I'm probably gonna shave most of it and stick with a goatee type thing till I'm old n' grey.

We live in a society where male genitalia mutilation is acceptable. We live in a society where misandrony is a reality. We're lucky our beards are all that they are cutting off.

Imagine if they forced us to register for something called the draft and forced us to go fight the wars they vote for? That would be worse than having to shave.

Not that you care or should care. This might perhaps be the douchiest comment I have ever seen on Talk Bass....

FYI...

Cool, just trying to help some ppl out!

No one will admit to caring. I understand this. Just like suits change style so does facial hair. Hair cuts change style. Some ppl do care.

Most people would rather not be caught wearing a mullet because they didn't get the update..

So just like it was popular to joke about the mullet so the goatee is becoming. Like it or not.

Don't think anyone would actual,y disagree with you there but what "looks good" is sooooo subjective it's not even funny. I love TB but this like the 2nd to last place I'd go for style advice. It'd be first but my dad takes the cake there

This is me after a week of not shaving!
As you can see i am pretty hopeless at bearding. This is why i usually shave every couple days.
I am 28 so i don't think time will help much, my dad is 65 and also unable to grow a beard.

Joined and became a supporting member straight off the bat? I was thinking it could have been an older hand with a new account.

FYI...
It all depends on what circles you run in and where you want to go, perception is important, regardless of whether or not it should be. I have fairly high standards for myself, but I understand if others have different outlooks and try not to judge them by my own perceptions.

Sounds like it is chapped lips.

Not only do I shave my beard, but as a cyclist and triathlete... I shave my legs as well. Girls have always loved that!

I am one of those how isn't on the memo list. I do what I do without consulting fashion.

Do you or for that matter any rational being really care about what anyone does in terms of facial hair or dress? I would suggest you look a bit deeper into what makes up a man. His ability to meet his word. His independence of thought and action. In fact I would like to divert this thread to find just what each of you feel what makes a man. Surely not his facial hair.

This is just a suggestion
