Well, do any of you have it?

Is it by design?

I don't have much due to various medical reasons from about 18 years ago. It has definitely become something to consider in the past couple of years though.

I have just shaved and decided to leave a goatee style "beard" on my chin. Not sure if I like it but I think it'll grow on me (sorry, I had to do that). :D

What do you think of it in general?

I get some because I can't be arsed to shave. When it gets to a certain length and starts to annoy me I shave it off and the cycle starts again.

Yes
Yes, Currently unshaven, will go goatee/tache only tonight though when I shave and will have it all off wednesday (gf really hates it)

Can't be bothered to shave, and spent most of the past few days going to/from hospital so not bothered

By choice, I'd be lazy and have a full face of fuzz. However, the ladies in my life have not approved. My current facial configuration retains the outline first drawn on by Feeona (my ex) in an eyeliner when we first dated. She said I looked like a big baby when I was fully shaven. I have a fuzzy chin and top lip, but my cheeks are shaven. My prior ex first saw me with a full beard, and her first words of English were "Shave!". She said it several times before saying any other words to me - so I did.

Actually, my cheeks are not shaven very recently. I think I scrape them on average once a week, although I really should do it every day. I frecking hate scraping my face off :evil:

I always think that picture of you makes you look like a friendly dog. I think it's the wide-angle close-up making your nose look rather snout-like.

However, I do like dogs and your face fuzz is in a similar configuration to mine - but very much tidier.

*pats egg*

None here. Stubble makes a regular appearance whenever I can't be bothered. After 2 days I feel too trampish and Woman gives me the "go shave" expression.

A few of us men at work all have beards ranging from stubble to big (but not full) beard. One has issues with shaving products so just trims to stubble, the other's muslim and has a beard of a certain length.

At the mo, I have a trimmed beard (grade 3). Where I worked previously we had a kinda beard club (we didnt form a club, we didn't tell anyone to grow beards - just more and more men started having beards). I reckon it was my sikh mate who started it all. He doesn't shave.

What I *do* want is something to soften my beard.

I've had a goatee, similar to Mark, since 1997. I shaved it off for a while in 2004, but it has been there since. I keep threatening to shave it off, but my girlfriend won't let me.

I would try a moustache or two (not at the same time!) if I could get away with it, but my wife hates facial hair. At the most, I tend to go one and a half days without shaving- depending on my shifts- and I'm in trouble.
