Bearded since: 2005. I am a dedicated, permanent beard grower.

Comments:
I started growing it because I had hair coming out of my face. Also, I'm sort of a rebel. But most importantly, it's a religious thing. No, I'm not Jewish, though I get asked that a lot. But I do grow it for the same reason they do.

How do I feel about my beard? I've heard this question a lot, but i feel, "Why cut it?" It's something that distinguishes a man from a woman. Would you tell a woman to cut off her breasts? I think not, and not to mention, it feels like one of my arms or legs. I just don't feel right without it.
