Beards. Do you have one? Why/Why not?

[Eleima]

Do I have a beard? No.
Why not? Because I'm a female.

Heh, same here! Imagine that...
I sometimes wish my husband would grow a beard, if only to see what it would be like, but the most he's ever had was two-week stubble before he shaved it off in order to go back to work.

 

[ThatTallGuy]

i have longish stubble, if i clean shave i look about 12 because of my baby face, im 21 btw

That's my problem. I'm 21 also and facially, I look about 16 clean-shaven. I've had at least some sort of facial hair for most of the last 5 years though.

 

[Sennz0r]

I want a decent one so bad, but my beard's not dense enough so it looks ridiculous when I let it grow too long.

I do have a little stubble at the moment, because I want to and my skin gets irritated from shaving frequently and I can't be bothered to buy something for that.

 

[Layz92]

Plus, I'm following in the footsteps of the one and only Zakk Wylde.

Hell yes. I'm even going to plait mine like his.

Yes I have one. I have it because I've wanted one for ages and it gives me something to stroke while I'm thinking that won't get me arrested. Also I'm 18 and people say I look 25 since I went with the facial hair.

I shaved mine off for Lent (Family is Catholic). :\ Still, once Easter rolls around, give me two weeks and it'll be back. I just tend to shave the neck and cheeks because mutton chops just don't look good on me.

 

[manaman]

I have a magnificent beard. You will probably never see its match, even if you lived for another hundred years.

 

[ThatTallGuy]

I think that's the first time I've ever heard of someone giving up their beard for Lent. Also, I'm jealous because mine grows much slower than yours. I keep my neck and upper cheeks neatly trimmed though. Beards look terrible if you don't take care of them.

 

[bluemistake2]

If I grew a beard, it would not be hair, but thin red wires of METAL extruded from my face. A special METAL, not found anywhere else in the universe known as Brutallium. Single strands of Brutallium can be stretched and woven together to form the most awesome instrument strings ever conceived. From Brutallium pianos to Brutallium electric violins, everything becomes EXPONENTIALLY more METAL with the addition of these strings.

In fact, the Brutallium which flows through my veins is so potent that scientists are trying to find a way to form bombs which could possibly stabilise and contain it long enough to be dropped, and failing that engines which could contain the sheer POWARRRRR that it has as a fuel. Rocket engines ain't got shit on this.

As it stands I need special razors forged from pure Awesome to shave. And boy, they get pricey when the music industry gets cold feet and decides that supporting my habits is a risky investment, even though I do power the entire METAL industry.

i feel so stupid for believing this up to the second paragraph
OT: no i dont im 15 haven't started shaving. why? because once i do im gonna be too damn lazy to do it again... also i see no need for it yet

 

[riskroWe]

I used to grow a beard to look older and get into clubs.

Now that I'm 18 and I've given up on sex, drugs and pool, I prefer a nice warm therapeutic shave every 2 days or so. Keeps me calm.

 

[Daniel_Rosamilia]

No, because:
1. I'm still in school.
2. I'm 15.
3. CBF growing one if I could
4. If the points above could be avoided, I'd look like crap.

 

[newuseforvintage]

Never really been a beard fan, I'm one of the (apparently few) men who enjoys shaving. It's my sort of "wake up and feel clean" ritual for the morning.
I did rock a full moustache for quite a while because I thought it was hilarious how much it bothered my girlfriend. Had to shave it off for work because we were having a dinner function and my boss wanted me more presentable. Nice thing about my work is he actively encouraged it before then.
But no, no beard.

 

[BehattedWanderer]

I'm sporting a long and thin goatee, sans the lip wig part. Straight off chin, straight down. A little bit of stubb that grows in a natural chinstrap up to my sideburns, but hey.

 

[Booze Zombie]

I've got a nice, unshaven beard and I'm keeping it.

It's soft and it keeps me warm.

 

[Kolosus]

Too young. But as soon as my facial hair grows enough to make a beard possible, i'm definitely going to have one! A BIG ONE!

 

[Vondrakenhof]

I have a decent beard, for several reasons.

1. Without it my face gets cold.

2. It makes me look older. I'm twenty so I don't need to but it makes sure I don't have to dig my I.D out at the pub.

3. I hate cats so it gives me something to stroke when coming up with an evil plan.

4. I'm too lazy to shave.

5. I like it.

 

[ChaoticLegion]

I have one, yes. Because I feel that the rugged manliness is a perfect counterpoint to this wretched modern "man" that seems to popular these days.

You know the ones. The Twilight sort of folk.

I'm sorry but I'd rather swing an ax before letting out a hearty laugh.

My sentiments exactly sir. I'm always one to set myself apart from the general crowd ^_^

 

[ziggy161]

Sadly no, because I am female. I envy you doodz

 

[Sonofadiddly]

Nope. Girl. Also wanted to let everyone know that I find beards unattractive, in case you guys care. I shave my legs, you shave your face. I don't need my man to have a nest on his chin to prove to me that he has a penis.

 

[YouCallMeNighthawk]

I could grow one if i wanted to but i would look like a right tool!

Anyways i prefer stubble.

 

[LeonLethality]

I at first let mine grow out when I started growing one but now I shave every day.
