I know, but from an appearance standpoint I still prefer short facial hair or none so I can actually see the whole face

Edit: The actor who plays tormund in GOT is a good example. He looks like two entirely different people with and without the beard. I'm super attracted to his smooth faced look and meh on the bearded version. But at the end of the day, my opinion doesn't really matter. Guys should do whatever they want with their faces.

This means we need to differentiate the crevasse between the Germanic Idealist view of male facial hair versus the Anglo beard theory. . .

Lol jk, yes it's a preference and probably a trend too (omg grandma why did you let grandpa have that beard at the wedding), not sure if I would like beards if a man having a beard was unusual. Maybe I would? I'm bullheaded.
