Except the beard thing....some of us get a terrible rash if we shave.

That and the smoothness only lasts an hour or so....what is the fucken point. I wish there was some kind of check box option when entering your teens:

  • [ ] have beard, but if you shave you get itchy and red
  • [x] just can't grow a beard

Oh yeah, I'm not saying anyone who has a beard or drinks alcohol or even has sex with lots of women is immediately participating in that culture.

That culture is more about celebrating these things on a basis of them supposedly being manly. They will of course mention that beards may look good or that it's just good to not need to shave every day, for various reasons, but if women could also grow a majestic beard, then this wouldn't be part of their identity/culture.

And yeah, I do absolutely agree on that chatbox. In my case, my beard grows so quickly that it's just tiresome to shave it all the time. But it's so patchy that it looks awful and it never stops being itchy for me.
If I could've just told my body to not bother with the beard thing, I would have saved about a month of my lifetime that I spent shaving.

I'm sitting in the backyard after work with my beard, my alcohol, and watching my chickens hunt grasshoppers in the yard... I nearly felt personally attacked.

If that had said "beard, alcohol, and chickens" then I would've been resigned to the stereotype.

Edit: on the beard, I'm just lazy. It's just going to grow back anyway plus it's a time saver. I'm rolling out of bed, into clothes, and into work at 05:30. Ain't nobody got time for shaving. I gave up on shaving about 40 years ago.
