Can short men pull off a long beard?

Or do we inevitably look like extras from the Lord of the Rings?

Ian Holm had the audience tittering when he did King Lear on stage.

Long beards are for straight men who like steak and annoying outdoor activities.

There would be rules. You’d omit tie-dye, printed t-shirts, and henleys. You’d omit shorts, jorts, peddle pushers, and full leg trousers. You’d omit any hairstyle that could imply comic book aficionado.

A long beard on a short guy means embracing a quaker, hassidic, or mennonite aesthetic.

Are you trying to make people avoid looking at you? If so, yes.

Wow, r3. The last thing I expected was practical advice.

Long beards are also for deplorable MAGAt shithead trash. It's a fuck you to the rest of society.

NO-ONE can pull off a long beard.

No pubes, albeit long beard? What an irony.

Hey hey now R2— I’m a gay man that likes steak and annoying outdoor activities.

Coincidentally, I did have a long beard about two years ago but I got rid of it. Average height.

If you're worried about it you're not suited for a long beard.

THREE TIMES I’ve tried and the public doesn’t buy into any of my beards.

No OP. Regardless of your height or body type, everything should be in proportion. Beard, hair, lapels, eyewear, sideburns, tie width, etc. Whatever is not in scale pulls focus from everything that is.

I fuck a shorty with a long beard. He has a big dick and soulful eyes.

Short men may pull long beards.

What the fuck does “in proportion” mean beyond “what looks good to me?” You just want to drape your opinion with some kind of objective mantle.

"You just want to drape your opinion with some kind of objective mantle." Well, duh!

No one should wear a beard. Except lesbians.
