Engels on facial hair

[anticap]

Today I have shaved my moustache off again and buried the youthful corpse with much wailing. I look like a woman; it is shameful; and if I had known that without a moustache I should look such a sight I would not have hacked it off. As I stood before the mirror, scissors in hand, and had shorn off the right side, the Old Man came into the office and had to laugh out loud, when he saw me with half a moustache. But now I shall let it grow again, for I cannot show myself anywhere. In the Academy of Singing I was the only one with a moustache and always used to laugh at the philistines who could not marvel enough that I had the audacity to go so unshaven into decent society. The ladies, incidentally, liked it very much, and so did the Old Man. Only last night at the concert six young dandies stood around me, all in tail-coats and kid-gloves, and I stood among them in an ordinary coat and without gloves. The fellows made remarks all evening about me and my bristling upper lip. The best of it is that three months ago nobody knew me here and now all the world does, just because of the moustache! Oh, the philistines!

This is me with my facial hair. It is a known fact that only people with facial hair can be true communists.

That was '41, though, so he wasn't communist yet.

I am willing to bet that this revelation of facial hair helped him to become a communist.

Incidently, I decided to let mine grow. Right now it's in some sort of transitional phase, where there's not a proper beard, but not a smooth skin either. It's really ugly, and before, I was afraid of this transitional phase, and thus decided to never let my mustache grow. It reminds me of Leninism, sort of, but with the contrast, that I do not doubt my transitional Mustache's ability to abolish itself with all it's ugliness and give birth to a fully egalitarian facial hair.

I haven't shaved in a week or two. I think I'll shave tonight. Thick beards and my face do not match; Senior year taught me that much.

Same.

If I shave, I look like I'm about 16 years old. When, I was in the Army, with no facial hair, nobody believed I was 27. My hair grows fast, so I also had to shave twice a day (unless I wanted to do push-ups at evening formation).

For some reason, my beard grows and fills out much more quickly than a mustache. So, I just have a beard and rocking sideburns. I was thinking about trying to grow a mustache again, and maybe I can look like comrade Che, but the mustache never grows in correctly.

I fortunately do have a face for a full beard (AKA a fat head :laugh:) but because i work often with weedwackers i would get a lot of filth stuck in there.
Also the itchy period when it starts filling in usually motivates me to shave eventually.

Eventually though i shall have a glorious beard and free myself from the slavery to gillette.

Beards are uncouth. Only moustaches are acceptable facial hair.

Beards are uncouth.

What you are saying, then, is that ~50% of human beings are uncouth in their natural state.

And another Authoritarian plot to justify dictatorship unfolds....

I come to like this role of jumping in and telling Leninists they're evil, I can fully sympathize with RAAN.

For internet sake: What a baller, I bet he gets all the ladies/gentlemen.
IRL: fucking disgusting.

That is indeed what I am saying. Those people are the bougiousie, and must be eliminated.
