The REAL reason men grow beards:

"Scientists reveal facial hair helps make them 'appear more dominant'
"Beards help men boost standing among other men
"Ability to grow a beard isn't linked to testosterone levels
"Men with beards seen as stronger, older and more aggressive
"Male voices that sound deeper than average rated as the most attractive

Today we are seeing a resurgence of beards the likes of which haven't been seen in public life since Lord Salisbury's second government in the U.K.

WHY ARE SO MANY DUDES GROWING BEARDS? SCIENTISTS (AND MONKEYS) HAVE THE ANSWER


New studies conclude that guys' facial hairstyles may be a part of evolution. The whole "hipster beard" thing isn't even that hipster anymore, since facial hair is now an accepted part of the modern male experience. But that doesn't make beards any less intriguing. Some scientists argue that beards are unhygienic microbial playgrounds, yet several other studies claim that beards have evolutionary benefits, which could outweigh any negative health effects. One new study has strengthened that claim, basically concluding that (surprise!) men grow beards to get attention. And to get lucky.

NOTE: THERE IS EVEN A DATING SITE FOR PEOPLE WHO LIKE BEARDS

Our ancestors may have learned this trick by looking at monkeys. (Not like they had Gillette or Schick back then.) Researchers at the University of Western Australia argue that male primates in big societies develop garish "badges" to enhance sexual attractiveness and demonstrate dominance to competitors.

According to The Telegraph, scientists researched 154 primate species, and found "more conspicuous badges" on males in communities rife with social and physical conflict.

Just what badges are we talking about? The paper, published in the journal Evolution and Human Behaviour, says for orangutans, it's cheek flanges; on proboscis monkeys it's elongated noses; and on human males, the badge is the beard.

"When you live in a small group where everyone knows everyone because of repeated interactions, there is no need to signal quality and competitiveness via ornaments," Dr. Cyril Grueter said. "In large groups where individuals are surrounded by strangers, we need a quick reliable tool to evaluate someone’s strength and quality, and that’s where these elaborate ornaments come in."

This would all seem to fall in line with a 2014 study which found that beards are subject to “negative frequency-dependent sexual selection," meaning they are attractive to potential mates because they are less common.

But it's not just limited to your biology: Swag counts too. Grueter says things like jewelry and "prestige items" that alter physical appearance serve the same purpose. That's good news for guys with peach fuzz

A man’s ability to grow a fulsome beard isn’t actually neatly linked to his testosterone levels. Despite this, a number of studies have suggested that both men and women perceive men with beards as bolder, stronger and more aggressive than others. And dominant men can get more mating opportunities by intimidating rivals to stand aside.

In times with a greater proportion of single men competing for fewer women, beards and moustaches became more fashionable.

When we see men paying attention to their appearance, it’s easy to assume that they’re just angling for partners. But our research on beards and voices shows that beards probably evolved at least partly to help men boost their standing among other men.

What is the point of a beard, evolutionarily speaking? Children, women, and a whole bunch of men manage just fine without one. But take a walk down some streets these days and you’ll be confronted with all sizes and shapes of groomed (and less groomed) facial hair – from designer stubble to waxed mustaches and hipster beards.

Compared to males and females of many other primates, men and women on average look very different from each other – partly thanks to men’s facial hair. And when we see differences between males and females, the explanation often boils down to evolution through sexual selection – the process that favours traits that boost mating opportunities.

But interestingly, women don’t seem that interested in beards. While some studies have found that women like a bit or even a lot of facial hair on men, other studies have reported that they prefer the clean-shaven look. The lack of consistent evidence means we can’t conclude that beards evolved because women were attracted to them.

Researchers have therefore suggested that a second type of sexual selection may hold the answer.
To reproduce, it’s often not enough to simply be attractive.

You also have to compete with the same sex for mating opportunities. The funny, shy guy at the back of the bar isn’t going to stand a chance when competing with his bolshier brothers otherwise.

And there’s evidence that beards evolved to help men do just that.

This is something that holds true both in modern times and throughout human history. Dominance can provide a staggering short-cut to mating opportunities: genetic evidence indicates that about 8% of the male population of Asia today is a descendent of Genghis Khan and his family.
A study by the appropriately-named Nigel Barber linked British facial hair fashions between 1842 and 1971 to the ratio of men to women in the marriage market. It found that in times with a greater proportion of single men competing for fewer women, beards and moustaches became more fashionable.

Beards aren’t the only feature that can convey dominance – voices do too. People tend to vote for leaders with lower-pitched voices, and during competitive tasks men lower the pitch of their voice if they think they are more dominant than their opponent. Like facial hair, voice pitch also easily distinguishes men and women.

Re: How to Grow Your Beards, Why Do Many Men Have Troubles Growing Beards? by osasyankee(m): 9:21am On Jul 22, 2017
To help trace the evolutionary origin of beards and voices, we tested whether they were seen as attractive, dominant or both. We asked 20 men and 20 women to rate the dominance and attractiveness of six men who were video-taped on four occasions as they let their facial hair grow. We then used computer software to create four versions of each video where the men’s voices had been changed to sound higher and lower-pitched.

Beards didn’t affect a man’s attractiveness rating consistently, but those who let their facial hair grow were perceived as more dominant

We found that male voices that sounded deeper than average were rated as the most attractive. Really deep or high pitches weren’t as popular. In contrast, men’s voices were perceived as increasingly dominant the lower they were. Beards didn’t affect a man’s attractiveness rating consistently, but those who let their facial hair grow were perceived as more dominant than others – in line with previous research.

The tension between attracting a mate and competing with others doesn’t just apply to beards and voices. Men on average also think their body should be more muscular than women report that they want, while women on average believe they need to be thinner and wear more make-up than men report that they want. We’re not always that great at judging what the other sex finds appealing, but maybe that’s in part because our instincts are to out-compete our peers as well as attract a partner.

A beard is the collection of hair that grows on the chin and cheeks of humans and some non-human animals. In humans, usually only pubescent or adult males are able to grow beards. From an evolutionary viewpoint the beard is a part of the broader category of androgenic hair. It is a vestigial trait from a time when humans had hair on their face and entire body like the hair on gorillas.
