Beards don't make a man. Back in a day, a beard and a flannel shirt would tell the world: "This is the apex of masculinity." Now, a beard and a flannel shirt says: "This is a twat who spends $28 for a glass of craft beer and has a vintage record collection, but can't even change his own oil." A beard now says: "Are these muffins gluten-free?" A beard is for the guy who loudly whines about a restaurant not having any vegan alternatives to ranch dressing. The internet and candy-asses have ruined our precious beards.

  • The inane chatter of unbearded ladies. The bearded man is the epitome of masculinity! If you do think this has changed then grow a beard and join the fight to take the beard back from the hipsters and the wankers!!

    I shaved mine as an act of protest. I will not be part of this hipster pageantry and unbridled pussification of a once-proud status symbol.

  • I keep mine to rebel against it! As I'm fighting sharks off with my beard comb, and using my beard oil to rub into the breasts of all the ladies that want to be with me, I know that the trend will eventually die, but my beard will remain!

    I admire your optimism, but I see the truth: Beards are now synonymous with bitchmade dudes who lack masculine qualities. No longer are the beards of our forefathers and great heroes celebrated. Now if you see a guy with a beard in an urban area they are probably into poetry and ironic t-shirts. These are not the beards of heroes and gods. These are the beards of fixed-gear bicycles and cutoff skinny-jean jorts. The sad, tainted beards of double-soy mocha chai latte-sipping vegans and "men" whose only claim to possessing testosterone is buying Pabst Blue Ribbon for all the wrong reasons. Cast off the sullied facial hair of the hipster swine, my friend. It does not define you (unless you have a pussy jaw-line or you look like a nine-year old...then I guess continue the good fight) and embrace the barefaced power of true manliness. Even without a beard, I have and still can: - Hunt and kill for delicious food. - Operate, maintain, and remain proficient with a number of firearms. - Fistfight lesser, weaker men into dazed semi-toothless pulp. - F*** like a kodiak bear on PCP. - Expert navigation through cross-country roadtrips. - Be completely oblivious to chickenshit things like "antiquing" or whatever the hell it is you do when you "appletini". - Never owning a vinyl collection. - Owning a "World's Best Dad" coffee mug for a non-ironic reason. - Having no desire whatsoever to "go green". - My poop consists of cordite, sawdust and animal blood. Heroes and gods were heroes and gods because of what they could do, not because of the facial hair that has been adopted by this new breed of pussies.

  • I live in the mountains where a beard is still a beard. But at 6ft 2in and 280lbs don't think anyone thinks I'm looking for a vegan option or quoting poetry.

    I live in a city, where beards have basically been ruined by guys like this. ^^^

Civilization has gone thousands of years with men proudly and naturally wearing their beards. All until recently this has changed, the beard no longer holds status like it once did. We live in the exact era that ruins the beard. Our generation will be responsible for ruining a multi thousand year old symbol. I'm sad to be a part of this generation.
