Bearded since: 2012. I am a dedicated, permanent beard grower.

Comments:
Why did I grow my beard? In college, I was a winter coat kind of grower. Once in the professional field, I had to shave for a boss preference. Growing tired of corporate slavery in America, I decided to no longer be a stool for executives, working around the clock so they could take more time off, and pocket more money to buy stuff they don't need. So I stopped shaving over the last week so I could hand my resignation letter with hair on my face, like a truly noble man. Who should dictate my look? Me! My wife now loves it and I will shave for no one but her. So luckily she is on board (one of the many qualities of reason for committing holy matrimony with this fine lady).

How do I feel about my beard? There is nothing noble in being superior to your fellow man. True nobility comes in being superior to your former self, and growing a magnificent beard.
