To beard or not to beard

I don't know what a prefer in a man, facial hair or no facial hair. But I do know that I HATE it when guys who cannot grow beards do anyway. You women know what I'm talking about. One day your friend is baby's bottom clean shaven and the next they have a growth on their chin, cheeks or upper lip that resembles the hair in their nether regions. All prickly looking and sparse to say the least. You want to tell them that they look like they've glued it to their face, but everytime you try to speak all you can do is stare and mutter incoherantly.

Last night my room mates and I were "researching" the beard phenomenon on my computer and we came across this website. At first we weren't sure what to think... There is actually a survey for women on there that asks you several questions concering your like or dislike for beards. I'd have to say that I don't mind facial hair. If a man can grow a beard, I mean a real beard, more power to him, but if he is incapable of growing a beard or any real facial hair at all PLEASE PLEASE DON'T!

I have several friends who have beards. Ry, my good friend (who happens to be dating my best friend...or courting as they like to call it), has an amazing beard. As long as I can remember my friend Ryan has had some type of facial hair. In junior high it was a a gotee, in 9th grade it was a soul patch and for several years now its been a full out beard. Now that's a man if I've ever seen one. Then there's my friend Caleb, Ry's best friend. The poor kid couldn't grow a lick of facial hair if he tried (which he does). But recently he's been giving it all he's got and I'm gonna have to say that I abhor it. Its all red and crinkly and gross looking. A hair there, a hair hear but not everywhere a hair hair.

Anyone out there feel my pain? Anyone at all?

Here is a picture of something not to do with your beard... ew...
