Why women love men with beards

[Anonymous]

Men with beard are such a turn on for most of the girls. And for me!

Here are some of the reasons why:

: Because it's manly and we love manly!

"we dont like boys, we like men"

Bearded men look more aggressive and like alpha males. A beard signifies the pinnacle of manhood.

There's nothing manlier than a beard!

^ I meant in looks by the way. :P

: It's sexy and Majestic

Hugh Jackman proves it

:You Appear to Be Mature

For some reason, which however mysterious makes a man look mature with facial beard than being clean shaved.

These are some of the reasons why I love facial hair on guys!

Stubble, trimmed, not trimmed, whatever. We love it. So grow it out guys!

[AleDeEurope]

Damn! So a man is not manly if he doesn't have a beard. God, I hope all you girls have huge boobs or you won't be a real woman right?

It's stupid to believe that a man is not a real man if he doesn't have a beard. If that's what you like on a man, good for you, I have nothing against your preference, but don't insult other men cause they aren't what you look for.
I think beards look good on certain men, there are others that don't look good with it. I like how I look with a stubble and clean shaved, but when I'm more than a week without shaving I don't like how it looks.

[kitty71]

I totally agree. Just because a man does not have abeard it does not mean he is not a man. Who invented tat lame obesrvation? Certain guys look good with beard others not so much. If a lady likes a guy with beard well good for her. I dont like full beard in a man, for me it is kind of gross when yiou are going to kiss it. I prefer stubble and clean shaved and in the case a man has berd plizz groom it well and keep it nicea

[myTake Owner]

Where in this take did I offend or even mention that a man is not manly if he doesn't beard or that clean shaven is unattractive?

[AleDeEurope]

"we dont like boys, we like men" Right beneath the subtitle.
And also the huge image that says "Sexy women have curves and REAL MEN HAVE BEARDS"

[myTake Owner]

Doesn't mean other men are not real men. Why do I have to explain this? are you that stupid to think that having a beard is what makes you a real man? -_- I'm just conveying that I and some percent of the female populations like guys with facial hair than not.

[myTake Owner]

population*

[AleDeEurope]

Hahaha I never said you shouldn't like them. Did you read my whole comment? I respect the fact that you like men with beard, it's your preference, and I'm ok with that. But the impression you gave with your Take is that men without beard are immature and not real men. So either change how you express yourself, or go take so f*cking lessons on how to do it, but don't call me stupid when you're the one who doesn't know how to convey an opinion, or stand by it.
Obviously having a beard doesn't define my manhood ;)

[myTake Owner]

You need to go for a self-confidence boosting class or something buddy. -.-

[AleDeEurope]

I don't need that. You're still not getting my point.

[JSmuve]

I'm gonna throw my two cents in on this. My comments are in parentheses.

Quoting take owner:

Doesn't mean other men are not real men (that's actually what you were implying by saying "we don't like boys, we like men". You were saying men have beards, boys, or fake men, do not have beards)

Why do I have to explain this? (Because you wrote the take)

are you that stupid to think that having a beard is what makes you a real man? (That's what you implied in your first quote. Read it again if you don't believe me)

I'm just conveying that I and some percent of the female populations like guys with facial hair than not (a fact that I'm sure the entire population of gag already knew)

[zombiebabe]

i agree with this take lol!!

[myTake Owner]

I'm glad! :D

[zombiebabe]

welcomed :)

Fair point.

[PiuBelloAmante]

thanks for this bro, because sometimes girls dont know what a true beard is...

[Anonymous]

I love how when women say they love beards... they post photos of stubble and scruff.

THESE are beards...

[LightsOff]

"Real men have beards"? Really? Fuck you, plenty of "real" guys can't grow a beard. "Sexy women have curves"? Being sexy is about more than just having boobs and an ass. It's also about confidence, attitude, the way you dress, talk, act, how you move, what your face looks like, talents, intellect and so on. If you think sexy literally = curves then you're a dumbass. Ironic too since the girl in the picture looks skinny as fuck and probably doesn't have the kind of curves most people would deem "sexy". Yet she's there anyway as an example of sexy. Clearly you don't need curves to be sexy.

Take your body shaming elsewhere sweetie, and grow up a little. Having a preference for beards and curves is fine. But don't go around saying bullshit about "real men" or "real women".

[killerking]

He'll yeah!

[LightsOff]

And leave guys alone. Like I said, having a preference is fine, but in the end it doesn't matter what you think about their beards or the lack of. They should grow it out because THEY want to, and not because you are all like "guys don't look manly without a beard! Grow out a beard! You look immature without a beard! Blah blah blah!"
If a guy wrote a myTake about how girls should wear makeup because it makes them look more feminine and mature, everyone would literally flip their shit. Can't believe some people don't realize the hypocrisy here.

[bubble_tea]

How can you get 2 downvotes from guys for this? :O They mad?

[LightsOff]

@bubble_tea beats me, they're probably the kind of guys who also go around saying "real men" and "real women" crap...

[Klaatu51]

i don't understand y this fascination wid beards lately... and a "beardless" face won't make u less than a man. it's just a stereotype. although truth's it makes u more mature, but i don't wanna look mature anyway... LOL

It's surprisin how beards became a thing again though... they were a 70s thing mostly. During 80s,90s,00s most guys went clean-shaven.

i enjoy havin a beardless face more, i feel more comf this way... can't imagine myself bearded.

[myTake Owner]

To the comments which are harsh and people who took this sexist, I'm sorry you guys felt it this way I should've specified it in my take that it's only a PREFERENCE. and not ALL women like beard yeah.
.
Yes ofc, you can go anyway you want. I haven't specified anywhere in my take that other men i. e men who are clean-shaved aren't real men. so please people, stop it with all these rude comments saying that im being sexist and all -_- (PLEASE READ THIS BECAUSE I can't UPDATE MY TAKE)

[Klaatu51]

ok gotcha u r not sexist i undrstand...
but still i wonder wot n how beards r back in fashion again o_O

can uassume wot caused this?

[myTake Owner]

I didn't even know it came back in fashion. I've always loved beards. But I think still lots of girls prefer clean shaved men over bearded men. I just find bearded men sexy and gentleman-ly.

[OpenClose]

I think beards mostly just help form the jawline, and for hundreds of thousands of years, the male face evolved to look good whilst having a beard.

But yeah, the "He looks like an aggressive alpha male" is an justification I would avoid like the plague.

Just take a read here:blogs.telegraph.co.uk/.../

"One 17-year-old girl told researchers that if a boy “could kill someone or people thought he could then yeah I’m not gonna lie, he’s gonna be more attractive to me.”

"Women and girls are attracted to confidence and strength and these characteristics are common with boys who use them badly.”

I mean, this is like male issues 101. Attraction to aggression breeds violence.

[dudegrt09]

To be honest this has been my experience with beards

images-cdn.9gag.com/photo/ap0DXQ5_700b_v1.jpg

[rthomas43]

Same for me.

[dudegrt09]

@rthomas43 Awesome beard, bro!

[FidemMeam]

To counter, I have had women I see on a regular basis comment with disappointment when I periodically shave my beard off.

[Alistar]

I seem to draw favourable comment when I have mine cut really short.

[myTake Owner]

@rthomas43 Your beard is dreaamy *_*

[Anonymous]

We love beards because recently it has become a fad and therefore everyone has jumped on the bandwagon.

It wasn't more than 10 years ago that men with beards were considered gross by the vast majority of us girls. There was a study I recently saw where women were surveyed about "no shave November" and the majority said it was the worst month because their hated the facial hair. NOW all of a sudden it's a "major turn on" ... this to me just reeks of sheep mentality.

[Anno_Domini]

I grow my beard out from time to time (the longest I've grown was almost 6 months). I don't do it to impress anyone, especially women. I do notice, though, that I get more respect from men and I intimidate women when I have a big, untrimmed beard.

I'm currently growing it out again because my job allows it (and my face is very sensitive and easily irritated by shaving). My fiancee doesn't mind.

[koko124]

I don't mean to be offensive, but women honestly tend to be more "sheepish" than men.

There are studies out there that find that women have much higher attraction to a guy if they know that he is desired by other women. A lot of guys will tell you that this rings true in their personal experience as well.

When you look back at history, there are a lot of instances of women sleeping around with military "victors". When Nazis occupied Paris, there were droves of French girls flirting with Nazi soldiers. When Americans occupied Germany, there were loads of German women who mothered children by black and white American soldiers. When the conquistadors took Mexico, there were indigenous women who abandoned their native blooded babies in order to be able to have a white husband. When Britain was losing control of India, the viceroy's wife had an affair with Jawaharlal Nehru.

In general, women want victors. Today, beards are soft victors. Might change in a few years.

[vickiezalez]

I disagree. I like clean shaven men. I feel a beard hides your face and makes you look 5+ years older. I love to kiss a guy without his beard getting in my nose. Ill admit Stubble can be sexy BUT it hurts! Conclusion: clean shaven please

Disclaimer: not required if I fall in love. There is always exceptions

[condor78]

That's what my wife says. and besides who would want to make themselves look older, I have had beards and they are nothing but itchy

[Jxpxtxr]

Totally agree! I love this take & hope a lot of guys see this :)

[myTake Owner]

Thank you :)

[alonzoslade]

First it was clean and shaven and now beards are back in style, so hypocritical

[Jxpxtxr]

Why is it hypocritical? Trends change its just like hair styles for women change ;)

[Unit1]

I don't get the downies? They have no beard, that's it :D

Trends are nothing, really. It's more like how you look at yourself :)

[Jxpxtxr]

That's so true! :)

[Abiiir]

I like BEARD ,,, i'm telling my man to keep his beard it's true that he looks handsome withou it but he look handsome + hot with it
i'm really not into men without beard they are smooth and somehow remind me of girls not let's not say all of them but few of them ,,, no offence but this is what i feel
for a man to put more of charm on his face beard will be helpful

[PiuBelloAmante]

Hear that boys! they just want us to appear mature!!
so grow a beard!

i like my clean shaven face, its nice and smooth, plus girls like the smooth face when i go down on them...

my scruff/stubble is sharp and hurts them when i kiss or do other things involving my mouth lol

[Anno_Domini]

Stubble is sharp, but beards are soft.

[PiuBelloAmante]

Errrr, i dont like having a beard...
None of those dudes in those pictures had BEARDS though,
they had like 2 weeks of not shaving lol!

[Remonster]

Eh to be completely honest with you here: The men you posted are so drop-dead gorgeous they would look great with and without a beard.

The cynicism in me wants to add: Provided you are handsome already.

[Anonymous]

oh you don't have a beard? I guess you're not a man
oh you don't have big boobs / round ass / tigh gap / whatever bs? I guess you're not a woman
oh you're not skinny? I guess you can't be seen as attractive
etc

What other stupid stigma can you throw out there?

"great" mytake

[Azara]

who facial hair looks like alfa sprouts coming out of his chin. not a turn on;. and what exactly is attractive about an aggressive person. do you understand what aggressive means. how about rape?

alpha male theorizes animal behavior, its got nothing to do with humans.

[DaveyYourFavey]

Humans are animals.

[GemmaH95]

Well first off if I'd just read a MyTake on how women should do x because men like it, I'd be about to get myself banned with an angry reply. I think this is just as sexist white honestly. Real women and real women style themselves however the hell they want to. End of.

Second, I don't agree at all. Some men can get away with beards but generally I don't like them so don't speak for all women! You like beards I don't and neither do a lot of other women!

[Illusive_Man]

Why Asians don't grow beards.
1.bp.blogspot.com/.../beard+inspiration+2.jpg

We'd look like some feudal senator.

[Xylem]

This is not beard. Just a couple of hair on the chin.

[Mesonfielde]

So it is found attractive if the girl is socialized to think and believe that facial hair is an indicator of masculinity and maturity, and the lack of it actually implies the opposite. This is like saying if someone has small boobs, then they are less of a woman.

Maturity comes from knowledge and experience and the way you handle situations, and manliness comes from having male parts. So, eh. I will keep my at-most-stubble and look elsewhere.

[RedLiquor]

Biologically, if a woman has smaller boobs it signals to a potential mate that she might not be the best suitor for reproduction. The female attraction to facial hair is very much primitive and biological. The production of facial hair is stimulated by testosterone and although women DO have testosterone, it is a dominantly male hormone. Therefore, when a man has nice facial hair, that tells us that he is a man -- that he has quite a bit of testosterone in his system (this is also why we're attracted to deep voices and such) -- and that he would be a perfect mate because he could successfully reproduce.

Like I said, this all comes down to something very biological and extends far into the past. Think 'caveman times'. It's just like if a woman has narrow hips. A man will be more attracted to a woman with wider hips than narrower hips because wider hips tells the man that she is a woman (not prepubescent) and ready for child birth. Just like pubic hair tells us we've hit puberty.

[myTake Owner]

I don't think you've noticed that I wrote "You appear to be mature" which means you may not be mature but a beard can give you such a look. And I never wrote that Men without beard are less manly, did I? If I gave such a an impression then sorry. It's just a preference there's nothing to fuss over. So chill y'all :D

[Girlanony]

@RedLiquor biological? lol we are not animals based solely on instinct, we think. And no, you are getting this wrong, I understand your point but your reasons are completely unsupported, first, small boobs has nothing to do with reproductive purposes, it's the hips, biologically and from unmemorable times, hips were a big issue about reproduction purposes, because small or tiny hips were not good to deliver a baby, and man would "instinctively" go for women with bigger hips... anyways that was just for your knowledge... I also think that men with beards look handsome, but would give credit to those that do not grow one and still can look pretty manly...

[Koldhearted]

Agreed. And all woman should weigh under 120 lbs, have a shaved pussy, and have tits at a bare minimum D+

If you do not fill these qualifications you simply aren't a woman

[TheSpartan]

Lol nice

[Koldhearted]

WHY DO WOMEN AGREE WITH MY MISOGYNIST VIEWS

[Klaatu51]

they assumed u were jokin bro

[AshBrown]

I cannot fully agree with this. The guys who look good with beards are those who are good looking anyway. So it is not the beard that is making them look attractive.

[HyperOrphic]

I somewhat agree and disagree with this take: it's a tad sexist, but in a more... I suppose harmless way that men must be the idealistic form of "manly", but I know well enough that the woman writing this had no intention of such. I do like facial hair too of course and I agree it is because it is more "masculine" ... but when you think of it, it's a tad sexist. Lol.
