My husband has a beard and he shaved it off the other day - I'm not sure I like it, as he's just finally been able to grow a full one.
They have been a style for a long time! I wish I could grow a full beard, I can't do it haha.
Some people think that it's a trait back from the time when humans had hair all over there faces and body like gorillas - getting back to our roots I guess LOL!
Wow! I don't believe that, but I can see how people get that interpretation. They have a lot more hair.
And then you have some religions that say it's essential for males to have full beards and mandate it, like Sikhism
Right! I don't know much about Sikhism. I know a lot of the Old Testament people had beards though!
Very true - it seems in todays' age that there are still places that see it as savage and uncivilized to have a beard, even stereotyping men as dangerous.
