Well, esthetic advantages or disadvantages of beard depend, IMHO, on the facial type of the owner. For example, beard looks very natural in case of President Lincoln or the last Russian emperor Nicholas II, but I can hardly imagine either President Reagan, or Kaiser Wilhelm II with beard...
Well I first grew a beard well over 3 decades ago, just to see if I could and how it would look. I then decided shaving was not for me. The hell with it. But I have taken it off a few times, just so I could watch it grow again. It's a similar experience to watching paint dry. Tedious.
Once when I shaved it off, I went into work and pottering around, deciding what to do first, when my boss stuck his head round the door of my edit suite, looked at me grunted and hurried away. He told his secretary and his deputy that there was a stranger in my room and did they know who it was ? Embarrasment and laughter followed.
Another time I cut myself in several places and decided that it was all a waste of time and effort, plus being painfull. The beard is in place, firmly attached and will go forth with me when The Grim Reaper gives me the nod
I remember when my grandfather decided, at the age of 78 or so, he'd had it with shaving. Spent the last few years of his life looking startlingly like an old Willie Nelson. (He'd been a Texas redhead in years gone by.)
Didn't Freud say that a man with a beard had something he was trying to hide? Regardless, I get weak in the knees for a man who looks scrumptious in facial hair. . . and a man in a soul patch? <kathump>
I did once date a gentleman who kept his goatee trimmed so short that my lips were chapped through the duration of our courtship. OUCH!
I notced the other night while watching the Grammys that Mr. Springsteen is sporting a "soul patch" these days. DDDDAAAAAAAMMMMMNNNNNN!
A long time ago, I had a boyfriend who woulds wear a beard in the winter then shave it off in the spring. One annual spring shearing day, he decided to shave on one side of his face, and went around all day giving people his 2 profiles and asking which they preferred.
Well, all right Mac ! ! !
(Meet me after work in a dark corner of the site, k? Mum's the word around, Lovey, though.)
SEE! FRANK, JOE AND CHILD!! SEEE
That, and i'm glad that somebody else like " Red Dwarf" I'd hate to be the lone geek.
That's a pretty freaky avatar, Dlowan.
