I want to punch those people who said that to you.
As these comments demonstrate, plenty of ladies love bearded men. We all have preferences.
And we all have flaws to hide. I literally have only worn tops that cover my behind for YEARS. It's big!

You did the right thing. That lady was a monster.

We all camouflage. I do it too (big butt).

Now that is a great attitude. Defending your guy is awesome.

It's not cool when you make kiss my phone 'cause of puppy perfection. You cut that out!
People can see me.

This is an awesome comment and should be getting more stars.

I like Pennsatucky, Red, Crazy Eyes, Miss Claudette—pretty much everyone. But I gave up after five episodes because NOTHING makes up for the terribleness of the main character and the presence of Jason Biggs.

Well, women can get their mustaches lasered off. But maybe the beards take up too much area for that.

Exactly! To each her own. There are plenty o' men for us all.

This is stupendously fabulous crazy momism. As a crazy mother, I salute yours!

He was so cute when young, but yes, when he blew up, he bearded up.

Didn't say it made sense. Do all of your partner preferences make sense? I doubt they do.

Oh for God's sake, lighten up.
This image is irrelevant.

Thanks for a good laugh!

Of COURSE, there are degrees. My son-in-law, who is a very nice looking fella, has super sensitive skin. He has fairly serious stubble almost all of the time. He could go full beard in two days, easy. And he looks pretty cute with one.

No lie. I was told that honest men chose to hide nothing. My mother is otherwise very open minded, but she found bearded men repulsive.

That's the spirit!

I know the following statement will anger people, so please understand, it's just a matter of stating preference:
I hate beards. Stubble? Cool. But, growing up, I was always told that men with beards had something to hide.

I want to give this 20 stars.

I think it seems pretty good, because you seem very clear on things. :)
