Facial hair

[SerenityNow]

I think the most important thing for a doctor is how they peform and where they went to medical school. If I see someone went to a top medical school it tells me they put forth a lot of effort at least in college. If they are a specialist your doctor will usually refer you. I would rather a scraggly bearded doctor who went to Hopkins for medical school over a doctor who got his degree in Grenada and is neatly groomed.

And I think the guy from the A's in the picture looks good. Much better than when Wieters has his goatee.

A first impression is called that for a reason. If you have a male Dr come into the exam room with his hair touching his rear and a scraggly beard anyone would do a double take. Now if you want to ask his MCAT score and his references from his residency that's your up to you. If you don't like to be judged because you have a tattoo on your face I have two suggestions. Option one don't care if you are judged and option two would be don't get a tattoo on your face.

I also think its funny that out of all the unprofessional things players do (spitting, slapping each others butts, temper tantrums) facial hair is what is pointed out. Chris Davis could look like Willie Nelson in 2014 for all I care, just as long as he hits bombs and drives in runs.

I wish Chris Davis looked like a lumberjack. The memes that could be created. But then Hardy? wouldn't be able to rub his chin.

I research his/her background before making an appointment. Facial hair does not bother me. I wonder why someone thinks something as natural as a man having facial hair would give a bad impression? It kind of boggles my mind. If a female doctor had a full beard I might be doing a double take. I have to admit that.

Seems you are brainwashed by some sort of idea of what someone is supposed to look like that is not real. Men are supposed to have facial hair. If you don't like that take it up with god or evolution or whatever you believe in.

No one could trust this guy.

Apperntly you can't differentiate between a scraggly beard and facial hair. Your response seems quite emotionally charged.

And the sign said " Long haired freaky people need not apply"

So I tucked my hair up under my hat and went in to ask him why

He said " You look like a fine upstanding man, I think you'll do."

So I took off my hat, I said "Imagine that. Huh! Me working for you!"

Do this, don't do that, can't you read the sign ???

You're talking about from the 19th century? Before TV, Internet, satallites, and airplanes?

But not before razors, right?

I don't like goatees I think they look stupid and out of style. I think a "scraglgly beard" looks natural and looks better and they are in style now. It is an opinion. I just don't get the reason to have a facial hair policy or a hair length policy. Let people wear their hair and grow their beards however they want.

And not before photographs were circulated in newspapers and magazines.

I hate that the Red Sox have co-opted beards as their thing. I hope they get swept out of the playoffs and shave themselves clean, then let real teams take back the beard ethos.

Oh how life has improved through the homogenization of everything. What ever did people do before the television was there to show them how to look and think and act? The horror of interacting with those who didn't have access to your standards to fall in line with!

If you take a look around you see all sorts of styles, suits, goatees, full beards, the billygoat beard, the movie star 3 day growth, clean shaven, shaved heads, tattoo's, piercings, the nerd look, goth, dreads. Good lord how can anyone in their right mind insist that any one of those looks should be the only one for all. But maybe that's because I live in New York and see all of that every day just on my block

So if someone comes in to interview with my company and they have a tattoo of a penis on their cheek I should not weigh that in my employment decision?

Name the last president to have a full beard?
