I have no preference. If its a beard then it should be properly maintained. A beard shouldn't be growing wild like an Amazonian Rain Forrest.

Yep. Either/or is okay, but I do NOT want to meet ZZ Top!

Clean shaven faces look too immature. A neatly trimmed beard is cool and a beard of luxuriant growth is quite attractive too, just so long as it's kept clean.

At least if a beard is present, then one can be relatively sure no ajosshi will kick in your door at night with cops and all.

I think guys who are indifferent to "the beard" must not be very into... how to keep the metaphor going... "beardilingus?" Because that's one miserable experience.


Barb�lingus, I think.

True. However, the longer it goes on the more obvious it becomes.

I don't think it's so much a debate as it is a meeting of the (변태) minds (there's your first big hint, netizens!)

Also let's not forget those who don't take such an extreme position on the Beard Spectrum; some are Left, some are Right, and many are on the fence.
Still others are outside the spectrum, indifferent to whether a beard is present and wanting to express the virtues of this disinterested position.
