    There have been a lot of articles about men’s beards since hipsters started rocking full beards in the last couple of decades, and they’re often loaded with opinions against it. It’s usually not more scientifically interesting than asking “why animals grow hair”. They do, and nobody really cares enough to ask “why”.

    I’d rather like to know “the real reason men shave”. That’s somewhat more interesting, because it’s something humans have created and there ought to be a reason why.
