I like 'em clean shaven, please - te he I know it's a pest to do everyday, but if I can do it, they can too! HAHA (Bless my mama and gramma for my chin hairs and mustache!)
I had a clean-shaven boyfriend once whose natural
beard was so ferocious, about an hour after a close shave, he could remove the skin from my person with his face -- but he was a baker, so he had to be clean-shaven, and either cut his hair very short, or wear it long enough to pull back completely (he chose the latter!). After that, I've always preferred men with beards! My first husband was like that too, as he was a Semitic Jew -- very dark and hairy! But after he changed jobs, he was able to grow his
beard, and it was much better! My current husband is another whose natural
beard is just..I swear it's like microscopic barbed wire. He's only been beardless twice since we've been together, because I can't stand even a plain ol goodnight kiss from him if he shaves his face.
Our son takes it by spells; if he wants to appear more mature, he'll grow out a nice "Van ...." sort of beard, the upper part of his cheeks doesn't yet support a truly full beard. If he shaves, he looks about 15 (he's 27!).

But he constantly threatens to get some of that "Just for beards" dye for men, because his beard is red.
