Beard or Clean Shaven?

What do ladies think about men with beards and men who are clean shaven? I've always wanted to know... Which one do you prefer?

I as a man carry a very very very small beard with no mustache.

i used to have the 'light' beard, until i thought it looked like i didn't wipe my chin after eating a sundae! now, i got this big bushy civil war like beard and it rocks!

Lol Don't worry I'm keeping my beard even if the most people vote for clean shaven. I just wanna know what people think of it. As far as I know, clean shaven is really smooth and it's a lot less itchy... when you keep the beard, there's less hassles cuz you don't have to shave that much but you'd better take care of it: shampoo, conditioner... plus it's itchy!

did you find at times it feels like small weight is pulling your chin? I noticed it just feels uncomfortable, but then it goes away after awhile and im used to it!

No thank you. NO beards. No mustaches. But please don't shave your chests.

If I want to give my skin a break I shave the neckline only for a couple of days and let the scruff grow, but after three days I cant stand it

Be creative.

Give yourself a mohawk beard, and spike it. Go one step further and dye it fun 80s colors.

Yea I remove the beard at the neck but the rest is intact except for the mustache which is not clean shaven but extremely tiny.

As for feeling weight pulling under the chin? I havent felt that, my beard is really small so I dont see it bothering me... except the itching... I HATE THAT!

I don't like purposeful scruff (i.e., a mustache, beard or goatee). I do particularly like some scruff from laziness though.

beard! well, not a long one. short beards (or goatees, too) are so sexy. i just love the prickly, rugged feel of it against my skin. yum.

My first preference is clean shaven. After that, a small goatee is fine. Anything more, no thanks.

I coincide with TBF.

Clean shaven for me. A goatee or perhaps a mustache may be okay, only if the guy keeps it well-maintained.

I don't care for full beard or clean shaven. I like something sort of in-between - the unshaven (but not scraggly) look.
