Why don’t men shave any more?

I think men and women, should go for whatever look they feel happiest with. My cousin wanted to grow a beard but his wife didn't like them so he was not allowed to.

It’s just the fashion, it will pass. I hope.
To me stubble looks scruffy and the beards worn by so many men are identical and make them all look alike.
Worst of all are the little moustaches, apparently back after 75 years. Old films were full of them and my father grew one, briefly.

I'm not keen on beards; they seem unkempt for most who sport them, including my son 35. His is very thick; his wife trained as a hairdresser so will keep him trimmed up, but it seems he is always getting crumbs stuck in it.

I'm not saying they don't look attractive on some, but it's just not my fav look.

My late OH had designer stubble and very nice it was too!
What I hate are the fussy nest sculpted beards ... what a turn- off .....

Neat ... not nest!

I’ve always liked men with beards, going back to when they were popular in my student days (late 60’s). My DH of nearly 11 years sports a neatly groomed beard which suits him well (IMHO!)

The only time I've seen OH without a beard he was wearing a dress. It was a vice versa fancy dress party in 1977 - I wore a suit.
He grew it again immediately,. Now he, our son and son-in-law all have beards. I'm all in favour.

My husband has had a beard since he was 17 and he’s gorgeous,he shaved it off for charity once about 25 years ago but it had grown back within the week…just as well.I didn,t like him barefaced and our daughter walked past him in a supermarket and didn,t recognise him.
When I worked in Glasgow over 50 years ago over half the photographers had beards so it’s not a new fashion.
I love beards .

I really don’t mind. My Dh had a beard on and off all our married life. It got so I could never bring to mind whether he had a beard on any given day or not, unless I could see him. In later years, he had a more designer stubble look.

I’m not a beard lover at all. I can’t think of anything worse than a scratchy one and I do wonder how much wildlife lives in them. The guardian had a piece this week about a female partner who was fed up of all the food lodged in his beard. Yuck.
I feel the same about Rasta type dreadlocks.
Possibly one of the reasons that I’m happy being a lesbian !
