buddy, its not even about that.. i am far from being a molvi, and neither do i have a long beard as is discussed here, but if one call themselves Muslim, it is hence mandatory on them to respect its values and its tradition. Sure, dont like beard, put it on top of ur turn off list.. but growing beard for showing love towards Prophet PBUH and being a firm believer, one should admire his action, and infact encourage others to follow him. Comparison with pubic hair was not needed, and this is all what im saying. It grossed me out to read such a thing coming from a female member.
