                                                Bearded since: August 2006.  I am an occasional or seasonal beard grower.
 Comments:
 I far prefer my face with one than without. Some mates and I entered a bowling league and I stipulated that a beard from each of us will build team cohesion and identity.
 
 How do I feel about my beard?  I feel more individual and emotionally secure with a beard. As a result I feel better about myself.  I feel bolder.
