I grew my goatee over the summer while on vacation mainly because I'm not allowed to wear one at the police dept I work at. I came in with it for one day in the middle of my break and nobody ever said anything about it. I still have it four monthes later and still not a word. I'm starting to feel real self-concious like nobody pays any attention to me anymore...*sniff*

huh-whu? was rufus saying something?????

oh well.
I grow mine for about 2 months, go clean shaven for about an equal amount of tiem, then regrow it.

I've had mine for about two years now. The itchyness goes away after a while.

My advice: avoid runny eggs at Kings.

I alternate between a goatee,clean shaven & the occasional full beard,but I find the goatee adds more definition to my face!!

Rob...Knowing the west coast they will cling to this trend for about three years after New York gives it up (I think it has something to do with the time zones).

What do ya wanna see a picture of?
The goatee,the beard or the clean shaven?

Would you also like to see pictures of me with long black hair,short blonde hair,bald or my natural red headedness?

Stary, do you have a beard too?

Goatees are so 90's!

I had a Zappata for a while a few years back, followed by a hitler!

Stary?! (I kinda like that)...Nope, I'm clean shaven, not a beard hair on my face.

On a related note....
if Rob has a goatee here...
does that mean that his evil universe counterpart doesn't...
OR
does this mean we are in the EVIL universe?

I thought only Gays had goatees?

roy:

unfortunately, yes. most real-life gay women certainly do sport an unusual style of facial hair.

why can't we all be evil?

Why can't we be friends?

because we are evil. ... at least i am. note the goatee.

I've alternated between a goatee and a clean-shaven face for several years now. I grew my first full beard at 18, which was 8 years ago, but you can get away with being shaggy at that age...

The problem I've found with being clean-shaven is that because I have a very youthful face, I'm constantly thought to be about six or seven years younger than I really am. The goatee definitely gives it a harder look which adds age.

On the other hand, even though I live on the west coast, my last girlfriend didn't really dig my goatee all that much. Sure, she liked it when I had it, but when I shaved it off she finally revealed she prefers to kiss a guy with no facial hair.

Hey, if you can get away with having a goatee with NO mustache, I say go for it. The mustache is really the only drawback to the whole thing, I think, and the itchiest part.

'Course, you could go all out with the mustache and look like The Edge, or something... but that look's probably fading by now...

This is my second post here.

Why am I here?

And I just invited you.....very odd...and you posted an hour before I invited you.....You ARE a time traveller!

the mustache is really the only part that bugs me. just annoying. and yet, its the whole key to the goatee. without it, the beard half is less noted, and, thus, i revert to a 14-year-old

I had a beard during my years at Berkeley, and the wimmen STILL wouldn't pay any attention to me...

Sonnuvabitch!

Full beard is too much, clean shaven, not enough...goatee...just right.

you need a damn big fishing rod for that

Back on topic, I've opted for the goatee sans mustache. I needed something for the girls to play with, but anything more is either too hot or too much of a bitch to mantain.

I'm proud of my rod of iron!

Well Gobbert.... what did you decide on?

Did you go with the Goatee (actually, you were probably thinking of a van dyke)?

Did you shave like a little pussy bitch?

Do you shave your scrotum as well?

Three years later...

I've had a goatee since 1995. The few times I've shaved it off, I notice a few things. 1) I appear to be 15 years old 2) I look happy.

I like to maintain a certain reputation and young and happy ain't doin' it for me.

Plus, when all is said and done, wimmens do dig the goatee.

From the FWIW Department...

I've had facial hair since I was 23, in 1987. I've either worn the full beard, mustache, or goatee. I'm currently going goatee and have for four years. I like it. Most everybody else seems to, too. And I think I look better with facial hair.

Rob, it's a personal decision.

BTW, I think shaved balls is stupid. Shaved chests? Stupid. Shaved legs (on guys)? Stupid.

Jim

I'd shave it. Goatees just don't look right on pale guys like ourselves, Bobby.

Robby,

I've always liked the goatee [wink]

But baby, I'll take you how ever you are [wink]

Shave it off Robbie! If its makin your face feel all scruffy and irritated, ditch it [wink]

After all it is summer time, it'll make you feel a lil bit cooler anyways [wink]

Agreed sir! I'm proud of my leg hair. Unfortunately I don't look too good with facial hair, I have too much of a boyish face. So I say if it feels good...do it.

Just shave the ass hairs and all will be good, Robbie!

And since your face looks like your ass...shave the stoopid goatee too! :)

(double post -- d'oh!)

My goatee STILL doesn't get me any loving! $[...rassamnfrackin...]$

I've worn a 'stache since 1977, and a goatee since '96. While chicks may dig facial hair, guys really love to stick their dicks in my hair-covered mouth. Lots of them tell me it reminds them of a pussy, and they love having their dick stuffed in a pussy, except I can give a blowjob that's better than any pussy you can fuck. When you're in the area, we'll meet and I'll show you. remember, though, it takes a real man to suck a dick, and it takes a real man to have his dick sucked by a real man.

...da fuck?!

and thats why i dont drink soda

Rob, I think you've scored.

mdm2995 you are more than welcome to post at http://www.legionworld.net/cgi-bin/ultimatebb.cgi

I've had a full beard since 1977
at age 20, had a moustache since
age 16.

I look VERY young without the beard.
The last time I shaved the beard, I
had just turned 26. I went to a state
store to buy a bottle of champagne to
share with my partner George over
my 26 th birthday. The man at the state
store refused to sell to me because I
did NOT look 21 to him.

" Next time, get a buddy from College
to buy this FOR you! I'm sick of you
High School kids thinking I'm so Stupid
that I'm gonna sell booze to you!"

OUCH. [sad]

Now at 46, I would NEVER shave my
beard. I am quite attached to it and
it is sooo me.

I have this fantasy that
on my 70 th birthday, I'll have
shaved the beard and gone out to buy
champagne, and the man at the liquor
store will say to me:

" Nice try, kid!! making yerself up
to look like an old guy! I'm sick of
you High School kids tryin' to pull
one over on me!! I'm calling your
parents!! "

Keep the goatee, Rob.
It really DOES help one
to look one's age!

:)
