I think it has to do with pogonophiles who think they're better than wetshavers. Something to do with needing a beard to appear more manly, or something.
+1 I don't agree with the content but you got it. There are a lot of these going around right now. Some of these are damn funny. I have a friend who is in the opposite camp of facial hair than myself. I shave everyday while he believes the longer the beard the greater the man.
