In reply to the discussion: Men with beards are more attractive, healthier, research says [View all]SheilaT
(23,156 posts)51. I find this highly amusing, as
both of my sons have an auto-immune disorder called Alopecia Areata, which causes hair loss. They both have the most extreme version, called Alopecia Areata Universalis, which means neither one has any hair whatsoever. No eyebrows, no eyelashes, no body hair of any kind. Neither one has ever had to shave.
They both are amazingly healthy, and how attractive they are, well, you can decide for yourself except I'm not going to violate their privacy by posting pictures. Of course, I'm their Mom and so of course I think they're wildly good looking!
In addition, some men just can't grow a decent beard.
Personally, I do like facial hair, and my now ex had a beard when we met and most of the time since then.
