Science says men with beards make better partners than those without. According to a science backed study in the Journal of Evolutionary Biology, men with beards were more likely to be considered long-term relationship material compared to those without.
Why?
Apparently men with beards straddle the line of masculine and femininity, and the beard alters the face shape of a man. Women don’t like their men to masculine or feminine. Facial hair indicates testosterone, and testosterone indicates maturity. This is a recipe for for sweet relationship success.
Do you prefer a clean shaven man?
The thoughts of a razor-sharp, hairless jaw might sound good, an impeccable jaw suggests the guy will fall short in a relationship. Women associate masculine features with unreliable suitors.
Of 8,520 women asked, a mind-blowing 8,520 showed a preference for facial hair on a spectrum for of “relationship longevity”. Guys with bountiful beards were considered more for marriage, while guys with little-to-no scruff were eternally considered casual relationship material.
