    Beards fashionable?
    It seems every famous guy i see on tv at the mo has either long stubble or a beard. Do you think its becoming fashionable? Do you like it? Opinions?

    Beards are like chainsaws and fishnet stockings.

    Every man should own one.

    Maybe we're re-living the hippie phase?

    I hope not. Well actually it depends what you mean. Stubble/long stubble looks really good. Big Father Christmas beards, however, do not look good (on the young).

    I don't mind them, personally. Stubble, beard, or other.

    I saw a guy I knew from school around college the other day, and he's now sporting long hair and a bushy beard in a sort of death metal way. There's something quite mature about the "look, I can grow a beard!" thing.

    Just not a Van Dyke. Never a Van Dyke.

    They make anyone who is wearing one look like a total douche.

    Eew beards.
    Yeah, they are a huge turn off for me. Stubble is fine, but my ex grew a proper long (and ginger) beard and it really grossed me out going anywhere near it.
    I try not to be shallow, but i guess maybe i have a little phobia or something? :rolleyes:

    Fashionable, no. A mark of dedication, yes.
