He grew a full, but short, beard one winter and I could not wait for him to shave his cheeks again so I could see his nice skin and jaw. So many guys walking around hiding gorgeous faces behind what looks like overgrown pubic hair that could house three families of barn swallows.
Good god. Who can even grow that much? It would take me 10 years to grow that and I would still have bald patches.

I beg to differ. Some women may like neat, short beards, but I don't know anyone who wants a member of ZZ Top going down on her.

Or wants to kiss a man who looks like this:

Fortunately, we're hitting saturation with the trend.

Hey, hey--why did the hipster have a sweaty chin?

Because he grew a beard before it was cool.

Those looks would be considered "hot", or "cute" at the very least, where I live. I'm telling you, it depends on where you live.

There are a lot of organic granola-eating hipsters that live around here though. I don't think the look is as popular on either of the coasts.
I think you're out of the loop. It's a more upwardly mobile, urban progressive kind of thing. I won't use the word hipster, as all of the muso crowd aren't necessarily indie types. I'm heavily into progressive metal and underground hip hop, myself.

Well, Lycos, maybe it's lycans.

Seriously, do a Google image search for "hipster beard." I just... no...

I really think that in 10 or 15 years, men are going to look back on these huge monstrosities the way women look back on The Rachel haircut of the 90s, with one giant .

Yup. Go to Casey Moore's on a Friday or Saturday night, and at least 60% - 70% of the guys are rocking full-to-epic beards, and there's hordes of great looking women there. I think I'm the only one without a cute girlfriend. My Brother lives in LoHi Denver, a hot spot of gentrification. Same thing.

My fellow flower, I live in a suburb of New York. Brooklyn and certain parts of Manhattan (Alphabet City, I'm looking at you) are infested with these types, and the only women who go for them are also hipsters--which, in New York, translates into "questionable hygiene and living with several cats to control the mice and bedbugs." Indeed, people who shower regularly refer to such types as bedbugs.

Google "Bushwick Beardo" and click on the first hit at your own NSFW risk.

That quote says it all. We men have a type, but at the end of the day, as long as she doesn't make us retch, we'll nail her.

Let's just stick with alternative so we aren't stepping on anyone's sensitive toes.

As for upwardly mobile, I don't know what that infers. But if you're referring to socio-economic class, there are plenty of upwardly mobile, urban progressives who are clean cut. Like I said, I think it depends on where you live. In the Pacific Northwest (where you're from), it's cool to be bearded out. In SoCal and on the east coast, not so much. In the Rocky Mountain region (where I live), it's also considered cool to look like Paul Bunyan. In the large Midwest cities (where I'm from), not so much.
