If you follow me closely on Twitter, or have read the previous post on this blog, you may have picked up on my secret rather obvious love of beards. Now don't all go bleurghhhhhh - just because a man has a beard does not mean I am going to pounce on him. I still have my standards and the rest of the package has to work for me too. It's just the men I currently like have beards, and, yes, that includes the husband! This has been a recent development though - maybe my hormones are going craaaaazy with mid-life crisis-ness. Who knows? But for now I like beards.
Let's examine this more closely.
Some men look damn hot with facial hair - FACT.
