First of all we are Pogonophiles, meaning we basically can't imagine a world without beards.
I can't think of a real reason why we should be having this debate. I mean, really? Just look at this guys.
Jeff freaking Bridges. Need to say more?
Sorry, I can't hear you over the magnificence of my beard.
Why wouldn't you want to grow a beard? Classy, manly, interesting
Ok, first of all lets make some sense about it giving some history.
Beards have been a sign of manliness since the dawn of time, it's a sign that you are and have become a man. That was the preconception back then, know we now it has nothing to do with manliness.
Scientists believe, men in prehistoric times, beards were used as a protection, to keep warm and as a sign of intimidation. I think they just let their beards grow as they were centuries apart from the first razor, but that's just me.
There are several investigation throughout history that prove men in different civilizations had beards as a sign of honor, it has separated men from boys over centuries.
Beards have fallen in and out of fashion throughout human history since men had the ability to trim or shave them, therefore, beards not always have been proof of manliness nor power, but it certainly helps.
In ancient Egypt only rich and powerful men could grow beards, in Mesopotamian times, civilizations oiled their beards and dressed them as well, they used tongs to create this elaborated ringlets, also the Greeks used to do that.

It is said that Spartans cut the beards off as punishment for coward men.
I mean who would defy this guy and say no to his commands? Beardless men, that's who.
Also in ancient India they grew beards as a sign of wisdom. Romans used to have beards back in the day but they didn't catch onto the clean shave faces for a while, eventually they all became clean shaved, although they allowed their slaves to keep their beards.
US psychologist Robert Pellegrini says that the male beard communicates an heroic image of the independent, sturdy, and resourceful pioneer, ready, willing and able to do manly things. He claims that "inside every clean-shaven man there is a beard screaming to be let out".
LET THAT INNER BEARDED MAN OUT!
