Reasons You Need To Date A Guy With A Beard by kalu01(m): 9:24am On Jan 31, 2016 |
Research shows that growing a beard keeps a
guy younger-looking and cancer-free. Here are
just a few of the infinite reasons why being a
lumberjack’s lady has its perks!
1. Beards Have A Storied History Of Badassery
First off, beards go way back as having prestige
and power. From the dawn of time, a
man’s beard was a symbol of his honor, sexual
virility and social status as a man. In the Middle
Ages, just touching another man’s beard was
offensive and grounds for a duel. Otto the Great
swore by his beard saying anything serious.
Alexander the Great decreed that soldiers could
not have beards for fear that they would be
yanked on in battle. For the ancient Greeks, a
beard indicated his maturity. (You’ll notice that
Zeus — the head honcho of the gods — rocked a
full beard versus the baby-faced Apollo, Hermes
or Dionysus.) For the early Egyptians, the beard
became a symbol of kingship, placing the
pharaoh among the deities. And it was the
Vikings who really perfected the art of
manscaping by plaiting, forking or trimming and
nick-naming their face fuzz. So really, beards are
rocked by Greek gods, rock stars, royalty … shall
I go on?
2. He Has Clear Skin
You’re likely to suspect he has something to hide
under that beard, but contrary to what you
would think, under that bushiness is blemish-
free, baby-smooth skin! Acne and folliculitis
(hair-follicle inflammation) are oftentimes the
result of shaving. This is because razors can
irritate the skin and spread bacteria. As for the
secret to his smoothness? His beard prevents
him from rubbing natural moisturizing oil off his
face and protects him from those bitter winds.
No redness or dryness on this guy!
3. His Beard Keeps Him Wrinkle-Free
A beard is the fountain of youth. Funny to think
of it that way, but according to recent research
from the University of Southern Queensland, a
man’s beard blocks up to 95 percent of the sun’s
UV rays and we all know that over-exposure to
the sun means a higher risk of melanoma.
Actually, four out of five cases in men appear on
the face, head or neck and the sun causes up to
90 percent of the visible signs of aging. So while
we still suggest that he lather on that sunscreen,
keeping up his beard will keep that chiseled
jawline of his spot-free and baby-smooth.
4. … And Yet, He looks Much Older And Sophisticated!
Asurvey this past summer found that fuzzy-faced
fellas look as much as eight years older than
those who are clean shaven. When a panel of
women were shown a picture of Prince William,
who is 31, with a beard, they believed he looked
36. So he looks more mature, without looking
haggard or weary — it’s like getting all the
benefits!
5. He Looks Insta-Masculine
Sounds like a cliche, but there’s legitimate
research behind this: astudypublished in Evolution
and Human Behavior proved that the more facial
hair a man has, the more masculine both men
and women perceive him to be. So if you’re into
the burly, testosterone-driven type, he should
skip the razor for 10 days — that’s the exact
length of time the study found that women find
men the most attractive.
6. He’s Trendy
Maybe it’s because of bushy-faced hunks like
Ben Affleck and George Clooney. Maybe it’s
because of the growing popularity of No Shave
November. Maybe it’s because that scruffy
hipster look is so “in” right now. Either
way,bearded guys are on the rise. More and
more men are checking in with their doctors to
grow thicker beards, taking multivitamins and
even prescribed medication that stimulates the
male hormone dihydrotestosterone.
Amazon.co.uk found that sales of beard
trimmers have grown by 47 percent this year,
too. Think of all the men you can date!
7. He Scares Away The Bad Guys
There’s a reason why bearded men are born
warriors. Astudypublished last year in Behavioral
Ecology found that bearded men appear more
intimidating to other men. The researchers think
a beard makes a man’s jawline look bigger,
which can make him seem more aggressive when
he’s angry. You know he’s a big softie on the
inside, so you know there’s no reason to fear the
beard. You can walk down the street holding his
hand on a dark night in confidence. Add yours.
