    So which opinions were offensively worded in your opinion?

    Hmm, without getting into specifics (not looking for arguments), I'd say making generalizations about the cleanliness of long beards counts as being assumptive and kinda insulting. A person who keeps a long beard is no less likely to shower than or take care of their facial hair than a person who doesn't. That's kinda in the same general category (to me) of assuming that a woman who has long hair or a "bush" is automatically going to smell "funky" simply because they have hair on or around their genitals. Which is just preposterous.

    There are a few others in here I would point out, but won't because again, not looking for an argument and they are quite blatant and discriminatory. IE. It would be very obvious who I am talking about and I'm not into starting drama over beards. :lol:

    Gotchu. And i can see your point.

    Why so much hate?

    Short facial hair, I really like. Like baby beards. As for actual beards it heavily depends on the mans face.

    Not a fan, sorry. I don't like the way full on beards look. I think a little bit of facial hair can look nice, but I hate the way it feels. I would prefer my husband just keep his face shaved.

    Right here. A personal opinion. Very clearly a personal preference without imposing on anyone else and yet you *kitten* think it’s ok to disagree shame. Go *kitten* in your hat.

    Personally, I find these arguments stupid as f**k. If you like growing a beard, or a man in a beard, cool. If not, cool. It's all a matter of personal preference.

    I choose not to grow a beard or moustache because I find them to be more maintenance than shaving every day. When I was on the fire department, wasn't allowed to have facial hair such as beards or sideburns because it could prevent air tight seal from occurring with our masks.

    Typical, can dish but can't take. All fun 'n games until someone throws a counterpoint, then the red card of "It was just a joke, lighten up!" gets pulled. ;)

    The only thing I am able to deduce here is that this is a very sensitive topic

    Yup, in light of all that plagues the world, the beard topic is right up there for sure! ;)

    Kinda thinking I should hand out tea and offer back rubs.

    I saw a tee-shirt that said "Beards more pleasure for her". I thought it was funny.
