What Is The Point Of A Beard, Evolutionarily Speaking?

[Lencarl]

Researcher shows that beards probably evolved at least partly to help men boost their standing among other men.

A man’s ability to grow a fulsome beard isn’t actually neatly linked to his testosterone levels.

Despite this, a number of studies have suggested that both men and women perceive men with beards as older, stronger and more aggressive than others.

And dominant men can get more mating opportunities by intimidating rivals to stand aside

Beards are everywhere at present time.

Beards are for men who are to lazy to shave.

I thought it was for fat men to look less fat.

Studies show that beards have several health benefits including improved immune system and better protection from the sun.

 

One study claimed that a beard can produce antibodies for certain infections.

 

Mainly though we evolved beards because females find them attractive. The hairless face gene all but disappeared from our gene pool many moons ago because those poor sods couldnt get a ride.

Ah the beard, the ever present facial fluff on a 70's paedo and now the fashionable thing to have if you're a hipster prick. Ten years ago women hated beards, now they find them attractive? My hairy fat (not really) arse. Bet they said the same about mullets and goatees

[Lencarl]

 

I rest my case .

[Clydeside_Sheep]

Its to keep your face warm. Simple.

 

A grey beard can also demonstrate seniority over other men, much like rank insignia in the army.

 

I wonder who can grow the most lush beard among our posters here?

 

Shaving can be a chore, but then so can care of a beard.

[Chewie37]

Handsome cunts with beards muff birds better.

That's about all there is to say.

Or stick like Velcro,

[StandFree1982]

Or stick like Velcro,

And end up picking pubes out of it for hours aftwards. Bad enough when you've got a wee bit of stubble, let alone a full grown facial man beard.

[tightbreeks]

you can only join the taliban if you have a handful of beard. no crap beards allowed.

[The Boofon]

A strong powerful full beard is a nightmare when enjoying an ice cream cone.

Is it easier if you don't enjoy the cone? An unlikely experience I grant you but on a cold day perhaps?

[Chewie37]

A strong powerful full beard is a nightmare when enjoying an ice cream cone.

Especially with all those pubes that fall onto the ice cream

There is a difference between a strong beard and some jakey we a faded Star Trek teeshirt, long hair and an unkept beard.

[Poodler]

 

how do you explain all those fossil beards buried all over the place then?

Poodless' dad is a minister and he says carbon dating fossils is all to fuck. So there.

[Lencarl]

 

According to an Australian university study, women are DONE with face whiskers and now prefer their men to be clean shaven. The reason? We FLOODED THE MARKET!! Beards became too fashionable and soon every hipster and “lumbersexual” had one. They’ve lost their charm. But they could be useful ( see above )
