This is a question for the women here. Do you think a guy looks good with a beard, yes or not?

Here's a picture of Barry Gibb circa 1979 looking all suave with a beard.

No. I like guys that are clean shaven. I think a beard makes a guy look very ugly. Even Dean Cain and Hugh Grant can't pull off having beards, and they are really good looking (clean shaven). A beard is a major turn off.

So I could not pull of having a beard? :lol:

Depends on the guy. Some can pull it off, some can't.

I can't think of anyone who could. :lol: I also think gotees make guys look unattractive.

Okay, there is a reason I started this thread. :lol: Last April I went a week and a half without shaving. Therefor, I ended up with a beard. Hair has a way of growing like that. :lol: When I was at work, there were people working in other departments who would see me and say, "Hello, Professor". They actually thought I was a professor. Also, most of the history professors I had did infact have beards. So I thought if I wanted to someday be a history professor, I should probably look the part. Anyway, I kept the beard. Last week, I was thinking of shaving it off, but while watching the Family Ties DVD and seeing how dignified Mr. Keaton looked with a beard, I decided to keep it.

^ Are you also going to start carrying a pipe with you and wearing jackets with the patched sleeves? :lol: Just kidding.

No, but when I am a professor I'm going to wear a suit everyday. One of my history professors, Mr. Harkins (I had him for four courses in the past and a fifth this fall), a man I really admire, wears a suit everyday.

You would never see Alex Keaton with a beard. :lol: I remember the episode where he tried to grow a mustache and no one believed that it was a mustache, lol.

No, I can't see Alex with a beard. :lol:

Well, my first bf Andy, had facial hair. It drove me crazy. I'd have to go into my bathroom after we'd kiss to make sure I didn't get scratched lol. But now my recent ex, we were a on/off status for a while. When I first met him, cleanly shaven. Then he comes over one day with that..ummm..goatee (sp) and wow! The difference. He looked better with the facial and I his didnt hurt my face so much.

Well, I'm somewhere in the middle. I like my guys to have face stubble. Not clean-shaven, but not a full-grown beard. Just stubbly, like House.

All the guys I've been intimate with have had some degree of stubble on their faces. Trufax. Lol.

He's one of the few guys who looked good both with facial hair and clean-shaven. :eyes:

Nope, I definitely like guys who are clean shaven...beards just aren't attractive to me.

Depends on the beard, I like a neatly groomed short haired beard, don't care for the long ZZ Top beard.

I don't exactly like full beards. Ick. A short goatee is okay on some men, but others need to stay hair-free.

All I'm goin' to say is - MMMMMMM stubble. :D

No beards. Clean-shaven or stubble, plz. :cool: It doesn't even bug me if I kiss a guy with stubble. I think it's hot. :)

i'm on the fence with this one. i generally like the clean shaven baby face look but i don't mind a goatee (on some men). i'm not into full grown beards though especially long zz top/santa claus types, it makes me think things are living in them. yuck!

Men were meant to grow beards. I'm pretty sure Jesus had one.

Yes. :) I like beards as long as they aren't as long as a ZZTop beard.:lol: But it also depends on the man. Some look good with facial hair, some look better clean shaven . ;)

I've had a beard at times, it's received positive responses from my ladyfriends.

I remember the comment "give it a chance" while it was starting once. Another time I hadn't seen my friend from Kentucky in a long while; she knew me as only clean-shaven, and right away when she saw me with facial hair she said "I like that!"

I have a lot of grey now though, so I don't know how well that would go over, unless the lady is looking for a "father figure" - !
