personally, I think the best beard ever is the Christoph Metzelder tournament/injury recovery beard, although the motivation is pretty goofy ("well, I hadn't shaved, and we won our first match, so I won't shave again until we're out of the world cup!" um....okay?)

I hope so, because I love pretty much all facial hair, except crustaches.

I am pro-beard. Beards are awesome. Any and all men look better with beards, as long as they can be fully grown. Goatees don't count, they're weaksauce. Didn't find George Clooney hot until I saw Syriana

I have made it clear to my husband that if he ever shaves his beard, I will divorce him. I am completely serious.

@LadyNo Fondles Sweaters: Agreed 100% on the Clooney remark.

And yes, goatees are wrong.

Wow, lots of beard hate. Wonder how most readers here would respond to a bunch of dudes expressing how much they hate leg, pube, or armpit hair and demanding its removal? I mean, yeah, dudes HAVE demanded said removal for years, but we're certainly not happy about it. Beards are natural.

@funnyface: I'm SO glad you said that, because I was starting to believe I was the only one thinking it.

I have never made out with a bearded man. Serious question: how does it work? It seems so scratchy and sometimes (as in the case of example photo man) mouth obscuring. Does the scruffy get all up in the other person's face? Genuine scientist curiosity here.

@orangehennessey: I'm married to a beard guy. He uses a trimmer to keep it from obscuring his lips. There's a certain length that's mostly soft and not scratchy, and you can condition them to make them even softer.

@orangehennessey: My bearded husband lets his grow to extreme levels of mountain manliness, and it's fine. It's actually quite soft. It only really hurts when he's just trimmed his mustache so the whiskers are sharp, but that only lasts a couple days.

I agree with funnyface, using shampoo and conditioner helps tremendously. Mr. No uses Pert Plus.

I am currently sporting a beard but I'm going to get rid of it pretty soon. It is super-shit itchy and I think that it is pretty selfish of me to deprive the world of half of my beautiful face.

My husband, who hasn't shaved since before Thanksgiving, will be delighted! He is

trying to cultivate a slightly insane persona for professional reasons.

Also, what is it with engineers who are crazy about facial hair? My brother has this insane beard, and he DELIGHTS in taking a tweezer and finding the biggest, crustiest, most mutated hair he can find and comparing the follicle...bits to a normal one.

Is this an engineer thing?

No, no, no, I tell you! Even Jack got rid of the crazy beard on Lost. It is NOT beard season.

Clearly, the Absurdly Attractive Middle Aged Professor at work has received this memo. Sigh.

I haven't gotten any of the dreaded chin stubble, thank god. My sis has a friend who's got quite a bit of unwanted hair, including on her chin, and she lovingly refers to them as "pokies". Not the same thing as an actual beard, I know. Anyway I think beards on any guy except dear Santy Claus are just grody. Nothx.

@..now it's just Aesop's Foibles.: I had an ex who would miss a few spots while shaving. One day I decided they looked like little bug legs sticking out.

From then on, if he wanted to torment me, he'd try to find a "bug leg" on his face and then rub that portion of his face against my arm or shoulder.

I actively hated this.

My husband hasn't shaved in almost two months, and I'm not a fan. I like his face! But, it's his face, so he can do what he wants. I am, however, strongly encouraging him to trim that shit, because he's starting to look like a crazy person who lives in a cabin in the woods.

Are these ironic beards?

Or too poor to afford razor blades, gel, and water beards?

Perhaps they are used for hiding tarantulas.

I like beards, to be honest. And if I were a guy I'd fucking hate having to shave every day - particularly guys with acne, can you imagine the pain? - so beard on, Macduff!
