Beard or no beard?

[magickarl]

I've heard a lot of mixed responses from both the ladies and other dudes on what they think about beards.

Some women say it makes the man look scraggly

Some women say it makes the man look rugged and sexy

Some women say it really depends on the guy, and that some men can pull it off, and others just can't.

I say my beard looks bad ass. I try to keep it well trimmed, which is what most girls say is the most important thing about beards to them.

I know that it all comes down to what I want, and since I like my beard, I'm not going to shave it off for any woman until I decide its time to go on my own. But I was just wondering what the guys here thought about bearding it up in this day and age.

its all in the ladies preference. i was clean shaven for sooo long, finally let it grow, thought it looked stupid but everyone else was tellin me otherwise.

As long as it looks clean, your all set.

Try shaping it.... play with it a bit. See how it turns out.

Go check out.. a professional stylist. Let them get there take at it... and do something up for you.

I use to rock a nice chin strap back in the day.. then I joined the Fire Dept. and had to shave it off. Bastards! lol

Anyways to recap. As long as it looks clean.. and well maintained.. you can rock w/e you want!

Well I guess what I'm asking in particular is if my beard is good to go. I think I have it shaped pretty well.

Who gives a sh1t what others think?! if you feel comfortable in the beard and it makes you more confidence with the ladies then wear it with pride.

Secondly it does look bad ass. Women are secretly attracted to hard urban looking guys and you fit the bill.

I have a beard like that. Yours looks good by the way.

I think it does truly depend on preference. Just like some guys are attracted to blondes, brunettes, etc.

I'll say this much though, if you're a college student and you want to attract younger girls a beard often helps. If you can grow a decent, nicely trimmed beard, certain girls will be all over it. Some even get drunk and start touching mine, no lie. :rockon:

Plus, there are all different variations. I don't really like chin straps or thick beards, I like the stubble look running along the jaw line and about halfway up to my cheeks.
