China Posted November 15, 2018 Share Posted November 15, 2018 Study: Men with beards are more attractive A new study shows men who have full beards are more attractive than men who are clean-shaven. The study was published in the Journal of Evolutionary Biology. Researched asked more than 8,500 women to rate men on their attractiveness as a long-term romantic partner, Yahoo News reported. Here’s how the facial hair rated: Heavy stubble (10 days) Full beards Light stubble Clean-shaven “Beards may be more attractive to women when considering long‐term than short‐term relationships as they indicate a male’s ability to successfully compete socially with other males for resources,” the study concluded. Beards, the researchers said, are associated with a man’s age and masculine social dominance. Click on the link for the full article Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Going Commando Posted November 15, 2018 Share Posted November 15, 2018 The Commander Riker paradigm. Both Riker and Star Trek: The Next Generation become way more awesome when he grows the beard. Side note: my friend and I coined a phrase that means the opposite of "jumps the shark" that I'm trying to spread into general usage. A show "grows the beard" when it makes the jump from being pretty good to being transcendent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ExoDus84 Posted November 15, 2018 Share Posted November 15, 2018 Beards are for amateurs. You wanna be an alpha? You want all the ladies all up on your goodies? You gotta neckbeard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is definitely a stubble threshold, 10 days is pushing it for me unless I'm cleaning the neck area. That can be the difference between a woman thinking you already got somebody pregnant and hoping you dont ask her for money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bacon Posted November 15, 2018 Share Posted November 15, 2018 I've been married like 8 years almost and never been able to grow a beard. Being a likable and interesting person gotta be somewhere on that list between full beards and light stubble. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twa Posted November 15, 2018 Share Posted November 15, 2018 My wife hates mine, but it might grow on her in time. It's only been 16 yrs or so since she threatened to cut me off if I didn't shave it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess the 10 days thing really depends on the guy and how fast his beard grows. Mine grows at a pretty medium rate but I've known guys who, after 10 days, would practically have a full beard and guys who would just have a few wisps.

Ya, I'm half Italian, so after 10 days I can look like a damn near different person if i dont groom properly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Funny. I dont know what I'm mixed with but at 7 days I barely have anything (if I shave it all the way off it may never come back so I'm not risking it) By day 14 people are asking me if I'm ok. My peak is like 5 days long and then its mountain man, I hope he doesn't look this way, territory. When I used to get a haircut every week I couldn't go anywhere without bringing a towel with me. I would drown otherwise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm half Italian. 3 days of no shaving I get light stubble. But beyond that, heavy stubble/full beard does not look good on me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Before my goatee fully connected, my sideburns came all the way to my beard, could keep them clean and grow them back in less then a week easy. I have to shave my face every day to maintain the clean around the goatee look, my understanding is shaving regularly makes it grow faster, but genetics plays bigger part I'd say, and the hair on top of my head ain't much better. After two weeks I have trouble brushing it forward and making it look neat, and I cut my hair with a 2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
