Which is less manly: shaving a beard, or this?

Occasionally we hear objections to shaving from men who say "The beard exists and grows for a reason." Okay, maybe so. But the implication is that to shave one's beard is to be less than who nature or nature's God intended you, as a man, to be. That's a fair point that can be honestly debated like gentlemen.

But what are we, the shaven, supposed to think about this?

These guys are bearded, after all...heavily so...but oh so sparkly. It's like Paul Bunyan Goes to the Castro District, or Jeremiah Johnson Meets My Little Pony.

This post is mostly tongue-in-cheek. I know most bearded men would be aghast at the thought of glitter in almost any setting, much less adhered to their beards.

 

I couldn't imagine

ZZ Top..

 

One great thing about ZZ Top is that the drummer's name is actually Frank Beard

 

glitter beards? #end of the world

 

I just agree with everything written in that article. If I still had a beard I just wouldn't be thinking hey let's put glitter in this thing that'll look good. Maybe I'm just old and unfashionable but it means no glitter on my face then that's fine with me.

 

One could also say "Hair exists and grows for a reason, so there is no reason to get a haircut" or "body odor exists for a reason, so there is no reason to take a bath".

I think a well groomed beard is fine and manly. But glitter beards? That's pretty funny, akin to man buns and man purses. . The Art of My Little Pony Manliness?

 

What is the world coming to?

 

I prefer to be clean shaven. I happen too think that's what looks best on me.
but others can choose their way, I'm ok to let them. but I'd say that glitter would be preferable to yesterday's lunch in some dudes beard. that's just nasty.

 

Sheeeeesh! It the logical step after guys started wearing TWO earrings.
My opnion, guys. It's your body. Do to it as you please.

 

My eyes are burning!! Wish I can un see that one! I'll keep my goat unglittered thanks.

 

there is always the flower adorned beard

 

It's a pandemic!

 

Wasn't there another famous Beard...an astronaut or PGA golfer???

 

James Beard is an award for best up and coming chefs in America. That's another Beard

 

That's at least manly and doesn't sparkle. Just sayin.

 

sparkly beards are at least more manly then sparkly vampires.

 

I'd say they're equal.
