I'm a proud wearer of a goatee for the last fifteen years. Recently I went a mustache only.. for about 5 minutes. It looked ridiculous. Shaved everything and three days later...goatee was back.

Once it was done by Tom Selleck, it just couldn't be topped.

It was kind of like being the first to reach the North Pole. After it's been done, what's the point in following up?

Goatees were great back when you started yours...the sign of a non-conformist, and slightly dangerous. Now every other guy seems to have one.

A REAL mustache. Remember?

THIS is a mustache!:

I’ve had a mustache since I was 18..cut it off once when I was 20, immediately grew it back and it’s been with me ever since..

I tried a goatee, but the growth pattern on the right side of my face means half of it grows straight down (left), the other half makes an immediate right turn towards my ear (right). Unless I keep it super short, it looks ridiculous..

Replaced by tats and piercings in modern pop culture.

Mine came off once when I tried trimming it short and decided the Adolph look wasn’t for me.

Wore a mustache pretty much since high school. Grew my goatee in 2003 when working in the mideast to as my “I’m not a soldier” look.

"The mustache survived Hitler. "

The author's a moron. The way Hitler wore his retardostache did not survive.

Real testosterone means a real beard, all the way around from the Adam’s apple to about an inch (give or take a few centimeters) under the yes. Anything else is a wanna-be.

Did you know that psychological testing of both sexes has proven that the majority of people do not trust a man with a beard?

And worse, when women get together they universally agree that men should not grow out their facial hair. Women rarely say anything about their preference for smooth faces on men for fear of rejection. The only ones who don’t care or prefer beards/mustaches are women who don’t want sexual activity. Who really wants to kiss a haribrush?

Mustaches do NOT fit into the current popular gurly-man male image.

Of course the former mustache riders still protest.

Today only hirsute women have mustaches,men are not supposed to.. Generally women of Spanish, Italian or ME extraction. I think they can be kinda cute, but whadda I know?

After various beards, goatees, van dykes, mustaches, I have decided to go with the double chin.

[southernnorthcarolina]

Beginning with Lincoln, who began growing a beard after his 1860 election and before his inauguration, through William Howard Taft's term, all Presidents save Andrew Johnson had facial hair of some sort. Taft, elected in 1908, was the last.

Thomas Dewey, GOP nominee in 1944 and 1948, attempted to bring the trend back. But once Alice Roosevelt Longworth (TR's daughter and socialite) referred to Dewey as "that little man on top of a wedding cake," it was pretty much over for mustaches, at least at the Presidential level.

I have only shaved off my mustache one time in my adult like. Currently it holds it's place of honor for almost 25 years.

In college, I added the goatee several years before they became popular and took a bunch of crap from my friends for it ("Don't you think that's kind of old fashioned?"). Funny how none of them remember that I was ahead of the curve on that particular trend (probably the only time in my life).

Later on I went from the 'stache and goatee to the full beard and mustache and that's how it's been ever since.

My wife says she really likes how it looks on me and that's good enough for me (besides, I only have to trim it up once a week instead of shaving every day).

I’ve always worn one - when I was in the Army - the Colonel only had to see me at a distance and he would shout “Trim that Mustache” I had a real nice thick full one also.
