Bearded since: 2004. I am a dedicated, permanent beard grower.

Comments:
I grew my beard because beards convey a strong sense of masculinity, strength, intelligence, and individuality. In short, they're awesome. I also look a lot better with a beard than without.

While it is a pain to take care of my beard, I am pretty proud of it. I frequently get compliments and comments about it.
