# Just the man.
Any advice on deflecting girly beard criticism and maybe making it sound like the beard is A Good Thing?

# yep
tell her "a beard is a good thing" ;)

there's always the ticklish factor, proper beards tend not to scratch as much as new-grown stubble meaning less irritation and stuff on both faces (etc. nudge nudge...), or so I've found

# That's what I said!
"Remember the beardrash (what a misnomer!) you used to get when I forgot to shave? Now you get your inner thighs tickled as a bonus!"

Still no go...

# I have a goatee.
I am manly.

It is attitude that makes people respect and not pfffft!!!!.

That and being 6ft 4".

and ignoring people who laugh and call a beard 'girly'
Fucking GIRLY!!! It's a beard...I have only met one woman with a beard (she lives in Portmouth). How can a beard be GIRLY!!!!
It is inherently MANLY!!!!

# If anything
it is a well trimmed goatee.





and so is mine.

# goatees are poncey
because it still involves shaving. the only reason to have a beard is laziness. hence a true man's beard is a full beard.

# good
argument.

I have my reasons though.

I shave and I get rashy VERY badly around the chin. I get rashy If I don't shave around the cheeks. I have to have a goatee! Honest truth.

# Quite right.
I currently have manly stuble, due to not bothering to shave this morning.

# Easy
Just explain that your stubble is much, much more bristly than the beard. If she doesn't like the way it looks, you may have a bigger problem. Try explaining that you're like Samson and if you shaved your beard off you'd no longer go like a train.

Or find a more sensible woman. I've got a handlebar moustache at the moment (it's for charidee - I was being sponsored for male cancer research) and she hasn't quite got round to complaining yet.

# tell her
"If you wish to change me, you are going out with the wrong man. Seek out a clean-shaven wuss who will do as you say, or submit to my will."

# She doesn't want to change me.
Learned that lesson a while back :)
I do get a bit of "You'd be nicer without it..."
I like it! It's starting to go Uncle Albert.
TBH, she doesn't complain that much but when she does I think to myself "I have never, once criticised how she looked... Why do I get it?"

# I blame fairytales
we are told from a very young age that if we kiss a toad it will turn into a prince, if we just love the Beast enough the spell will be broken and he'll turn into Prince Charming etc etc...

No sleight on you lovely fuzzy - I guess we just try to bring out what we see as the best in men, I know I've tried... and Phil is a liar if she says she hasn't.
