Editor's Note: "MOD Voices" welcomes guest blogger Ryan Byrd who presents his reasons for having a beard. We appreciate his humorous approach to "informal learning" of science!
Hi, I’m Ryan. I’d like to share a little with you today about the southern portion of my face. "Why write a blog post about that?" you might ask. Well, it’s simple really. Hanging proudly from my face is an ever-growing, breathing mass of furry tender loving care. What is it? A beard, of course.
For the last several years, the skin on the southern hemisphere—bottom half—of my face hasn’t seen the sunlight, as a carefully crafted beard has adorned it. Of course, it hasn’t been there my entire life. A long time ago in a magical land of pre-adolescence, I eagerly anticipated the day I could grow facial hair. Sure enough, when the testosterone—the hormone that makes your facial hair grow—kicked in, I was able to groom the bottom half of my face just like the top half. It was monumental day and I haven’t since looked back.
So, I thought I’d share with you 3 good reasons to grow a beard. I think you’ll be turned into a believer.
EDITOR'S NOTE: Stay tuned this week for Ryan's THREE REASONS TO GROW A BEARD.
