Mama Likes Beards
Written by whoorl · Filed Under call me quirky, confessional, cronies
Go ahead, scrunch up your face in utter disgust. Your fake gagging attempts do not phase me.
I find men with beards insanely sexy and will shout it from the hilltops! BEARDS! BEARDS! BEEEEEARDS!
(For the record, I do not appreciate moustaches, goatees or soul patches/flavor savors.)
(Oh, and the beard needs to be well-groomed with no sort of crazy growth. Kind of like my friend Brandon, a fellow Desperate Blogger.)
Wait. Why am I telling you all this?
Oh, RIGHT. Guess who is hosting this week’s Friday Eye Candy at Mamapop! And guess what all of my picks have in common! Go see for yourself.
(Seriously. Am I the ONLY person who loves beards?)

July 3rd, 2009 9:34 amNo. Not in the least. Since my bf has a corporate job, he generally stays clean-shaven. One of the best things about his annual 5-day trip to Montana to go skiing with the guys is that he comes back all mountain-man with a beard. I LOVE HIM WITH A BEARD.
It almost breaks my heart when he decides to shave it again, when it gets too itchy.

July 3rd, 2009 9:42 amMy guy often grows a beard, which is fine in the beginning, but he doesn’t keep it as groomed as I’d like to it be. Then it gets painfully scratchy (for me) and I gently nag for a few days until he shaves again. I’m all for beards in theory, but I have yet to meet a man who maintains his to perfection.

July 3rd, 2009 10:27 amNo, indeed. Beards rock. Your personal top picks intrigue me…. RPatz with a beard strikes me a bit like a child playing dress up. On the other hand, Jeffrey Dean Morgan? YUM.

July 3rd, 2009 12:59 pmMatthew has a goatee and I think it’s hot. Beards? Also hot.
They’re…manly.
(Please tell me that the four of us will do a new photo every year. That photo brings me no end of glee, five months later.)

(Sorry. Had to do it…alliteration and all.)
We should most definitely shoot a new one every year. You can pick up Brandon on your way to down to see Danny and I!

July 3rd, 2009 5:51 pmMatthew has agreed that I need an annual winter holiday, so Desperate Bloggers 2.0 is SO ON.
Pick a date and I’m there. It sounds as though Brandon will be as well.
(Squees a little inside at the thought of us all together again.)

July 3rd, 2009 6:31 pmIt’s not just you! My husband has a full beard (with moustache) in the Fall and Winter and trims it down to what I think is called a “VanDyke” in the Spring and Summer. I think it’s totally sexy.
Heading over to check out your Friday Eye Candy picks!

July 3rd, 2009 11:50 pmI used to be into beards. Now it’s bald heads. Tom Colicchio, Patrick Stewart, yep. I’m all about the chrome domes.

July 4th, 2009 7:16 amI LOVE my husband’s beard. We have been married three years, and he has never shaved it. Beards are awesome. I have always had a thing for them.

July 4th, 2009 8:11 amI think I need a QUARTERLY trip to SoCal. Or, you know, to move there.
There’s talk of a fall trip to New York to see Metalia. You in?

July 4th, 2009 8:12 amI love beards! The Horse Whisperer grows one occasionally, but he has to be clean-shaven for work. I think his office might be the last office IN THE WORLD to enforce that policy, but so it goes.

July 4th, 2009 11:06 amI LOVE men with beards. I get quite sad when my husband occasionally decides to shed his, but he always grows it back. Which is why we’re married.

July 6th, 2009 10:42 amDoes this mean you had a thing for the late Billy Mays?
Due to whatever circumstances, I’ve never been able to grow a full beard. it’s just doesn’t grow very full in the cheek areas. So I stick with the goatee.
My husband doesn’t grow hair on the sides of his face either. This makes me VERY SAD, Marty.
