Let’s make February a month without razors… no shaving allowed, let us all Build-A-Beard!! It’s time for men to look like men, at least for one month. Let these words inspire you:

“He that hath a beard is more than a youth, and he that hath no beard is less than a man.”
— William Shakespeare Much Ado about Nothing. Act II Scene 1

“We have now for many centuries triumphed over nature to the extent of making certain secondary characteristics of the male (such as the beard) disagreeable to nearly all the females - and there is more in that than you might suppose.”
—C.S. Lewis

“How womanly it is for one who is a man to comb himself and shave himself with a razor, for the sake of fine effect, and to arrange his hair at the mirror, shave his cheeks, pluck hairs out of them, and smooth them!…For God wished women to be smooth and to rejoice in their locks alone growing spontaneously, as a horse in his mane. But He adorned man like the lions, with a beard, and endowed him as an attribute of manhood, with a hairy chest—a sign of strength and rule.”
— St. Clement of Alexandria

I’m already 3-4 months into this.

I may go a full year and see what I can come up with.

I’ve finally decided to hop on the bearded bandwagon.  I’m about 10 days in.  Damn you peer pressure!
