Jay, guys probably like facial hair a lot more than women actually do, although a little stubble looks sexy and hints of adventure and danger. But sometimes a little stubble can also look like a bum if it gets too out of hand. I'm a beard and long hair guy myself, which seems to fit my rebel image as a motorbike guy and former smalltime former rock star. But looking worse than most guys on AMERICA's MOST WANTED TV show probably isn't the very best plan if you want to get laid a lot. Sometimes there's a fine line between looking cool and slightly dangerous and looking like a bum or a homeless person.
Even worse yet for a guy would be harvesting some crazy look that reminds women of some psychopathic serial killer with drifters buried under their front porch. That's a look to avoid at all costs. That's chick kryptonite for sure.

With the fear of "sexual harrassment" environment they've created in most offices, I wouldn't touch that with a 10-foot pole... even my own (duh-dump-dump) :)
Whenever I try to grow serious facial hair (beyond the cookie duster), it's always a failed experiment that resembles the offspring of Elvis Presley and a werewolf. *sigh*

The only thing I recall from my HR classes is that the harassment must be pervasive AND unwanted. Heh.
As long you do something once, it can't be both ;)
The same thing prevents most men from claiming harassment, but in this case it is the unwanted part that disqualifies.

Re: #23
It would take a bit of maneuvering to get a cheek that close to that particular part of a woman. The inner thigh, all the way to the top, is quite sensitive, as is the other, more obvious, area, boobies! A day's worth of growth can feel like steel wool when scraped across "the girls".

Just a reminder, vagina is inside. Vulva or labia is outside. People get the terms confused. Almost to the point where it seems as hopeless as its vs it's to try to correct.
My facial hair recently got so long it became soft. Pretty sad, but I seldom leave the house, and kids leave me lucky to have time to shave.
It still itches when it gets long, though, or I might actually consider a beard.
Great post, Jay. Amusingly unexpected.

Timmer,
I will never forget when I started to work here over 20 years ago. The president's secretary was the company matriach. She had been with the company over 30 years after retiring from teaching high school english. She made the comment one day, "I'd like to complain about the sexual harrasment in this company." "What's the problem?" we newbies asked. "There's not near enough of it." she said.
