                                                Bearded since: 2001.  I am a dedicated, permanent beard grower. 
 
Comments: 
I am quite short and in my teens I was often mistaken for being much younger than I actually was. Growing a beard fixed that. Besides (beard maintenance aside), I hate shaving. 
 
How do I feel about my beard?  I think my beard is very becoming of me. I feel more attractive. I love it.
