I must admit............I'm not a huge fan of facial hair. On the other hand if the guy is really sweet I could probably overlook it...........

I'm a guy with a highly well-maintained goatee and it's my pride and joy. I've been blessed with the manly genetics to grow a nice one and some guys can't grow crap, so it would be wrong of me not to embrace it. Any woman who stands in my way of this is no woman for me. Pretty much everything else is negotiable.

Why do men grow grotesque, huge facial hair? I met someone I relate to on a couple of levels and it was quite pleasant. Truthfully, all I could see was this monstrous moustach that was SO big and thick it looked like two dead squirrels had been hair jelled together...but ok it was only a conversation and a cup of coffee. I enjoyed his company until he wanted to get closer...well he couldn't GET that close because of this really really THICK HUGE Moustache--and when he tried to kiss me...well. I withdrew. The thought of that big hairy thing scratching and poking my face and lips...I do not remember what HE looked like but I can tell you minute details of his stash! Why do guys DO that? I am a firm believer that the fancier the facial hair, the more the guy is trying to hide.


As someone who has had a mustache for many years, I cannot resist commenting on this forum post. To you, facial hair may be grotesque but to another gal it may be rather attractive. I can attest to the fact that a man will attract different women depending on his abundance or lack of facial hair. Clean shaven, a man will attract women who would not give him a second look if he had a mustache. Some women prefer full beards as a mere mustache just doesn't do it for them. To each their own. Should a man reject a woman solely based on the amount of the hair on her head? Supposes she chooses to not shave her underarms as many European women do? On the flip side, if the only thing standing between you and true love is facial hair, the man may choose to shave it off. Perhaps you and he can reach a compromise. For example allow him to have it during a certain time of year. I assume you knew he had a mustache when you met him so there must have been other redeeming qualities about him that displaced the fact that he has facial hair.

One of my personal heros, Ayn Rand said that her ideal man had something to hide if he sported any facial hair. I personally believe the notion is as nonsensical as a woman covering her true self with the use of makeup. Besides, no one ever gave Ayn Rand any flack over her mustache.

Funny Ron!

I think they look good on some men. No thank you to the ole Burt Reynolds rug crunch.

I like the stache beard thingy. I actually don't let him shave because I find it very sexy.

I would not discount someone for facial hair but may poke fun of it to get my distaste for it across if its a dealbreaker for you.

I really Think people need to stop picking straws and just say you don't like the person.

A lot have become so critical and judgemental here.

Maybe we need to look in the mirror and examine why we are alone. Too many little things bother us maybe.

My ex had a moustache. He trimmed it like every other day, kept it neat. I never saw him without it. He said his upperlip was really long, and the moustache put it in proportion.
I did meet up with a guy with the walrus type. Food getting stuck in it. Nasty.
Beards scratch, and my face doesnt look or feel good when it is all red and irritated.

Yes, to each their own.

Myth alert!! This is a myth. European women do shave their underarms, and their legs, and wax their bikini line....Sheesh.....

Personally, I love a man with facial hair!! It is a major turn on for me. Now, having said that, if the "thing" looks like it needs a leash and a license......that's another issue.

Neatly trimmed, but not too much because then it's prickly. Smooth shaved men are just boring.

My preference is 100% Clean shaven men.. OP I would have recoiled as well but actually would not have met him in the first place *yikes* ... mustaches seem so 80's and remind me of the village people or tom selleck .. no thx..lol
Not to mention it just seems unsanitary esp when someone has a runny nose and gawd knows what may be trapped in there.. LOL

I've encountered plenty that could use a full body dip! All I hear when they where talking was the growling sound that Chewbacca made

A mustache is one of those rare body parts that is easily removed if she does not like it...

You'd be surprised to learn about all things recovered from my beard, pencils being only one example...

I love a sexy goatee and well groomed stache.... But when the mustache starts wandering up my nose when we're kissing, something's gotta give!

I think mustaches in general are unattractive. My preference. Depending on how gross it was, it could actually keep me from dating the guy. Some are just gnarly. Some have explained why they do it pretty well. But the "I hate shaving" excuse - no weight. I shave extensively, so I know what that's all about. But it adds to my attractiveness and pride in my appearance.

Sounds like you arent talking about the nicely trimmed, kept up 'stache's of today, but the overgrown thick hairy ones of the 70's! To each their own i guess, but yeah 'those' ones are just way dated. But a man with a trimmed 'stash and gotee....mmmmmmmies!!

LOL Zen!

I must admit that I find moustaches to a be a huge turn off. I will never be able to date a man with one. I have nothing against trimmed beards though, they can in fact be quite sexy.

I've had facial hair since I left the military, and I can't really picture myself without it. I keep it trimmed but there was a time I had the Grizzly Adams thing happening.
I've met women who love the way I look and some who didn't. For every beautiful woman who hates it and won't date me, there is a beautiful woman who thinks it looks good and will date me. I once had a woman tell me she didn't trust men with facial hair, which to me is the most ridiculous thing I ever heard. If I shave, she'd trust me? Or if a man she does trust decided to grow one, she'd stop trusting him? That would be as stupid as me saying I don't trust women who color their hair or pluck their eyebrows.
Really if she's that stupid I wouldn't date her anyway. Instead of shaving to please someone else, it's easier to meet a woman who likes some facial hair, and there are plenty.

Send him my way! 'Staches always catch my eye. Listen2hear and justatool would cause the double-take for sure :)

BTW, you should have tried the kiss; you're way mistaken about how it would have been. Your loss...

Lets be honest. Some guys have beards and mustaches from pure laziness, and other hygiene deficencies show up also. They dont know what trimming means. Thats what I have a problem with. If the guy keeps it nice and neat, trimmed and not a foot long, as some do, some beards can actually look nice. I like to see the guys face.

Very funny! I'm delighted that most of you have a sense of humor!

He wasn't "my" man, just a man I met. Nice fellow and well-groomed otherwise, but his MOUSTACHE came into the room before him. And no I didn't know he had such a big moustache. It was technically "well groomed" but I am petite, and the damn thing was taller than I am with sharp, trimmed bristles. It was scary when he tried to come closer!

Eyelashes and body hair are natural--but "fancy" facial hair is not. It takes time and work to achieve those "looks". And yes, you are correct, the men who sport them like the way they look.

Now I am not typing about "normal" facial hair, just those huge ones that curl up at the ends. They look bizarre and circus-like to me. Or weird beards that say "My chin is HERE" when it's really resting on his clavicle, or monstrous sculpted mutton chops...

As for my "Zen" oneness with the Universe Om--I am allowed to not like facial hair. Some men prefer blondes or redheads or whatever it is that starts them up. For me, facial hair is a big turnoff.

Now, that "dom" fellow--before I'd even get to your moustache I'd have tiptoed out of the room backwards.

As for beaver...well...if you are repulsed you don't have to go there!

My personal preference is clean-shaved--

Thanks for your input.

best, zc

I know what you mean a little facial hair is ok but when you can't see the person behind it and it's like a bush growing around their mouth, not a good look. And if you try to kiss someone like that it scratches the hell out of you and can be quite painful.
