                                                Bearded since: 2003.  I am an occasional or seasonal beard grower. 
 
Comments: 
Always had a mustache even, when I was in fifth grade. Kept it all through school and once I hit fifteen,I was able to grow a beard and enjoyed that even more. I always loved facial hair and wanted a beard. 
 
How do I feel about my beard?  I love it. Unfortunately, I am pressured by job, parents, women, etc. to shave it. It's a shame.  I think the world should be more open to men with beards.
