My husband has a baby face. He grows his beard because he thinks it makes him look older at work. I hate it. It's scratchy, uncomfortable, looks gross, and I am not at all physically attracted to men with facial hair.

He still grows it each winter. There is no kissing or other shenanigans when it exists. I don't want a chapped face.

At least you're not like my typically clean shaven dad who announced that he was growing out a goatee for my wedding.

Beards are just ugly, that is why. Most men look terrible in them in spite of what the average hipster thinks.

They are about as attractive as an ungroomed bikini line on thong wearing woman at a public beach.

This does not even get into the sanitation issue.

Beards are so nasty and look stupid on most men.

Unless you resemble Santa Claus or can pull off the very light scruffy beard look, you need to shave it.

Beards make most men look fat, dirty, unkempt and stupid.

hahaha I dated someone who refused to shave his beard for a bit. I finally told him that if I wasn't shaving my beard if he didn't shave his. He shaved it the next day.

Shave it. If you were my husband it would be gone while you are sleeping.

I never ask anyone (or DW) to shave.

I think it's hot.

+1 Half gray, too. Real attractive to look at and have rubbing against your clean, smooth face.

As long as you don't get egg crumbles in it, do as you wish. But next time remember how to correctly spell jealous.

I am very good at growing facial hair. For baseball fans, think Danny Espinosa. Unfortunately, as I have gotten older, it comes in about 50% grey. (minimal grey on my head).

She does not like my facial hair. But, I only grow it in the winter to keep my face warm. I will shave it off in March or April.

Do I shave it off to please her, and have a frozen face, or can I keep it?
