                                                Bearded since: 1973.  I am a dedicated, permanent beard grower. 
 
Comments: 
I grew my beard because I always admired the men in our history who sported them.  And then, growing up in the repressed '50s, I couldn't wait. 
 
It's just a part of me. Like the rest of my body. And will always have one.
