I was having this debate on another forum. Some were saying that women like guys with beards. I was saying that beards are for suckas, and women just tolerate. What do you think?

Goatees are so 1990's. The only guys who can get away with them now are MLB relief pitchers.

My boyfriend in college had a beard and I didn't mind it, but most all of my gal-pals were horrified. They would NEVER be with someone who had a beard.
But, right now, beards are really in - so I'm thinking the attitude must have changed. I was in college in the clean-cut, shoulder-pad early 90's.

I was in college at the same time and remember it being all about grunge...........

I won't even tolerate them. My DS is trying the pseudo scruffy look right now and wonders why he can't get a GF when he had girls all the time when he was clean shaven. I don't even point out the obvious to him. The longer he stays single, the better for womenkind.

Well - Nirvana really hit in 1992 - right? The last few months at college we were starting to see grunge creep in - but in 1989 - 1991 it was all tight fades and buttoned up florescent shirts - ala Vanilla Ice.
In Arizona when the grunge fad started to hit, you could join it, or jump on the Western bandwagon - remember when Garth Brooks ruled the world. My artist boyfriend took grunge and did the whole goatee thing - but us business majors mostly went Western. More bars with better drink specials. Grunge was in some weird places with weird rules!
By the time grunge was mainstream I was out and working, and the boyfriend was long gone.

I went to one of those small private liberal arts places where rich kids go to pretend they're poor and socially conscious.

I'm not voting because I like beards on some men and not on others. I told DH that men who looked good with beards owed it to society to wear them (HE looks very, very good with a beard, but doesn't have one anymore).

I think some guys look HAWT with the scruffy look (5 o'clock shadow) - ala Viggo Moresten (sp? - Lord of the Rings) - I tell DH it's his mountain man coming out. Rawr!!
Others need no hair at all.
Some guys need a little facial hair - otherwise they look like they are just out of grade school.

I'm refraining from voting because I think it can go either way. Some guys look especially yummy with facial hair, while others look like anemic, yeti wanna-be's...

ala Viggo Moresten (sp? - Lord of the Rings) Ever see Viggo give an interview? He's such a squirrely, twitchy guy. After seeing that, it's kinda hard to believe he's good at playing bada$$es.

DH looks like a homeless person with a full beard. I am not fond of when he has a goatee but if he keeps it well groomed it is still better than a full beard.
Problem with facial hair is a lot of men don't keep it groomed and it starts to look like they are doing an impression of Joaquin Phoenix.

I'm with MM, I hate facial hair. It's scratchy and itchy and drives me nuts anytime his face comes in contact with me. (tried hard to make that non dirty, did I succeed? )

I have a goatee right now. I hate shaving, but with a full beard I look 15 years older.

I plan to look like Kenny Rogers when I'm old enough to look like Kenny Rogers. Also, I plan to drink like Kenny Rogers.
