                                                Bearded since: 2010. I am a dedicated, permanent beard grower.
 Comments;
 Why did I grow my beard? Because without my beard I look like a child. I needed something that would make people take me more seriously, something that made me more of a man and not a man-boy.
 
 How do I feel about my beard? I feel proud, like a lion and its mane. It is a thing of beauty and has become part of who I am.
