Beards and more beards

[sydnie7]

I'd say that makes it OK for you to put up some girlie calenders!
When she complains, just say "its OK, I don't want you to look like that".


I don't mean to be provocative, But much like the 'wife vs. kilt' issue that pops up from time to time, I'm dismayed and confounded by some of y'all giving control of your facial hair to somebody else.

In my own defense

Bob had a mustache when we first dated (a hundred years ago or so). He was clean-shaven when we met again in this lifetime. I've told him that I prefer him to be clean-shaven. But if he really, truly wanted to "stache up" again, I wouldn't try to say "you can't do that." He might find my opinion being expressed in more subtle ways but you're right, it is his facial hair and I do not control it.

In the same regard, I currently wear my [head of] hair long, and I think he likes it that way. If I thought I might cut it short, I'd run the idea past him and take his preferences into account. But they would not represent 100% of my decision-making process.

As for posting the link to the pictures, I found them interesting and thought others here would too. I've also posted links to pictures of New York City in the early 1900s -- doesn't mean I want to live in NYC!
