WHY CYPRIOTS AND GREEKS WEAR ..BEARDS

Postby miltiades » Sat Sep 07, 2013 10:18 pm

I have expressed on many occasions my dislike of hairy faces, more so on women than men.
It seems to me that Cypriots as well as Greeks emulate Middle Eastern men in growing beards, maybe they just think its ...fashionable !!!

Well, it might have been in the more progressive world some years back, but it no longer is.. :P

Currently in Belarus and Im pleased to inform you that hardly anyone sports a beard, I have been told that the government levies heavy ...taxes on beards :lol:
:lol: ay be the Cypriot government ought to consider raising badly needed revenue by the imposition of punitive taxes on beards, double taxation on ..women :lol: :lol:

My fellow Cypriots, take no notice of the backward Greeks, dont copy them, or the Arabs, shave those horrid whiskers off, they are NOT fashionable in the modern world.

Cypriots emulate Greeks.
that's how it works here.
Have you ever watched Greek trash TV? They're all sporting designer stubble.

Why do Greek boys wear moustaches?



To look like their mamas :lol:


Although, for my fella its quite a task to be bald of face for even a day. Shame the same can't be replicated on his head !
There's reasons I call him the Greek gorilla :roll:

The beards on Middle-eastern men are completely different to those on Cypriots and Greeks. Hate middle-eastern beards - make the men look aggressive. It's like the difference between cheap plonk (arab) and the Laurent Perrier NV Brut Ultra Champagne (Greek). :D 8)

As one of the Forum's Intellectuals... must confess to having sported a beard during student days... which was a long time ago.

No, it was General Intellectualism , a beard was a prerequisite.

Presumably you studied Advanced Malakies...???

In Kuru's case would that involve use of magnifying glass and tweezers?
