Don't underestimate the power of a beard

Studies show that a beard makes you seem more trustworthy and mature.

https://yfsmagazine.com/2021/04/01/t...s-in-business/

"Trust is essential in business. We don’t deal with people we don’t trust. But trust is a fickle thing because we often rely exclusively on external stimuli to determine who is worthy of our trust and who isn’t. And sometimes, simple details such as the presence or absence of facial hair can make businessmen seem more or less trustworthy.

Studies suggest that growing a beard can help businessmen seem more trustworthy. But this wasn’t always true in the past. The public’s opinion on facial hair changes over time and successful businessmen should adapt accordingly."



Beards also make you seem more powerful and dominant

https://www.theenglishshavingcompany...ology-science/

"Your style says a lot about your identity. Beards, moustaches or going clean shaven are all stylistic choices that can affect the way people view you. However, beard psychology reveals that facial hair can have an even greater impact than you might realise. It subconsciously affects the way people perceive you including your employability, trust, social skills and masculinity. While having a full beard doesn’t guarantee an immediate alpha-male presence or success in your next interview -- there are limits as to what beard psychology can achieve on its own -- your facial hair can subtly impact people’s perception of you."


And for you single bros, sloots seem to enjoy a well groomed beard

https://www.themanual.com/grooming/d...n-like-beards/

"The answer is varied overall, not in the least according to the type of beard you’re sporting. But a UK study covered by ZME Science stated that women tend to find men with beards more masculine and aggressive, which are both potentially strong signs to search for in a mate.

Other studies have shown that women tend to rate men with beards as more attractive, or potentially better as partners or at raising offspring. Research also indicates that women view having a beard as a sign of stability, meaning men are viewed as being geared towards a long-term relationship rather than a short-term one."



Beards are power brahs.



For your time

Das it mane. Sloots want to be dominated. Beards signal "I'm on my grown man chit. Follow me."

If a man can grow a beard, he should.

Because after all, is a man without facial hair truly a man?

I had a 6+ inch mane that I just trimmed back down and I already miss it lol.

Beard bros ..what to do if I'm getting a lot of white hair on my beard? Thinking of getting just for men and dying it. I'm 30, so it's strange getting it that early.

At 30 I would dye it srs. It’s really no big deal, 99% of people can’t tell.

At 40 I would let the salt + pepper take over. You’ll look more mature and dignified.

No, dominance and power is. We like women when they are feminine right? Sloots like dudes thattheysee as masculine and not some spyboy. Not saying clean shaven will make you look like a soyboy, and some women just plain don't like beards, but looking older doesn't hurt if you lookgood.

Beards are for men who have to hide their lack of a jawline.

It’s unhygienic as well, with traces of food, mucus, saliva, sweat, puss, and feces collecting in there.


It’s the ABILITY to grow a beard that matters, not being an unkept hobo or bin laden snackbar. The ability to grow a beard is evident even when a man is clean shaven.

Beards absolutely help a weak chin, but are great if you can grow a non patchy one regardless. Think of people you've bought things from. Chances are, you subconsciously trusted the bearded individuals more.

Lol’d at “interact with it” and “unaesthitic” which should say “unae********ic.”

Why would I trust someone who is HIDING a receding chin, pock marked cheeks and an overabundance of buccal fat?

THATS DECEIT BROTHA.
“Beards are makeup for men.”


I trust a man who has the discipline and pride to groom himself often. If he knows how to handle a straight edge then I know he is a man to be taken seriously.



Next you’re gonna tell me that cowboys are a symbol of honesty and masculinity when they walk into a bar while wearing their high heels.

Break your legs, grow a beard, and put your cowboy boots on.

If you’re not doing the above then you’re not trying, volcel.

I already told you, I display the ability to grow a beard, you can see the stubble on my face, connectors on display, etc.

But no way I’m hiding my jawline, cheekbones and hollow cheeks. It’s not Dedhead levels with the massator muscles, but they come through when I’m at 13% bf.

Indicators of strong healthy genetics should be displayed, those who refuse to display are hiding something or too lazy to shave.

If you think that you look better with a beard, that is because you have inferior facial features (like a weak chin). You are literally saying that the more of your face you hide, the better you look. lol. Its like the girls who look better with masks on... its because they are actually ugly and just hiding some of the ugliness.

I've been able to grow a perfect, thick beard since I was probably 17 but never will. I usually have stubble, but sloots still love when I am clean shaven.

brb chinlesscels going to extreme lengths and beauty routines to pretend that they have normal test levels. Growing these extreme shaped one like the picture below. More pathetic than the sloots that cake on a 1/2" thick layer of makeup to try and look better because its expected that females do that. But dudes should not have such low esteem.

I realized why your jimmies got rustled.

But realize that when those East Asian girls tell you how much they love your beard, it’s really because they hate the East Asian men who can’t grow beards except patchy ones.

So they’ll tell you how your average cock is so big and your Double Eyelids make them so horny to suck you long time. Indicators of masculinity are not the cheekbones and jawline, but rather the indicator of masculinity is NOT being East Asian. Because the East Asian girls you date are self-hating and no other type of woman is as easy or worships you like that.

The way I see it, there are two options:

-Grow beard
-Chin implant

That doesnt really work anymore. Most dyels average guys have facial hair now. Real moggers dont need to hide behind a beard, srs. Being clean shaven is so rare that people notice it more when you are
