The great Debate

Beards? Rugged and manly or just plain annoying.

It really depends on the person, I think. Some people look a lot better with facial hair then they do without it, while some absolutely need to shave every day or they're gonna look like a hobo.

well i will tell ya this...usually it depends on the woman. Some like a little scruffy and some don't. The guys usually don't care. I would ask your woman friends for an honest opinion on how you look with one and if you want a big thick one or a beard thats low cut like very short. :wmage:

I don't mind beards that much. It's those little rat moustachios I loathe.

I have a beard. This is because I am far too lazy to shave everyday, and generally could care less early in the morning how I look. Rather than shave every other month and look like crap in between, I let it grow out, and make it look at least like I'm doing it on purpose.

I shave about every third day; cheeks and upper lip, that is, because I know for a fact there's no way I can get, for example, the area under my chin clean-shaven. I simply don't let the hair there get longer than 1 cm. My kind of compromising between my laziness and my good looks when shaved (brag).

Good looks in comparison, at least...

Anyway, Hamelin's right, it all depends on the bearer. But, I ask ye, where is the ladies' opinion on the important subject?

I think that a beard can look very cool if you don't allow it to become unkempt. I'm too lazy to shave, so I tend to get a lot of facial hair. It all depends on you, really; do you like having a beard or nay?

Krylo · 01-03-2004, 08:39 PM

Wait... what's the difference between rugged/manly and annoying? I don't see it.

Seriously though... I hate beards... I've never seen someone who I've thought looked better with one than without... but then I'm one of those people that hates hair that's not on the head or eyebrows, so I should probably be ignored.

I think only old people should have beards. They make kids and young people look stupid.
Cause the beards just naturally flow into ear hair.

beards + ear hair = good.
Breads + babyface = no.

I wish I could grow a beard, but it ends up just looking stupid.

On the plus side, I can grow that Auron stubble really well.
