I voted GAH! because I have a goatee, a nice full one that is neatly trimmed and well connected on the sides of the mouth. I got my looks from my mother's side of the family and like most of the men on that side we are required to grow some kind of facial hair in order to maximize our looks, it's an unspoken rule really...

I initially grew a beard halfway through my sophomore year in college and kept it until second semester of my senior year when, at the enthusiastic urging of two close friends, went for the goatee look. It went over well and I got many compliments. I like to consider myself a bit of a trendsetter because when I went goatee in 1992 very few men had them. Now they're everywhere!

Anyway, I'm glad I grew it and will NEVER go back to a clean shaven face. My hair grows in fast and thick and constantly shaving my entire face was such a royal pain in the ass. Now all I need to do is shave the area around the goatee and trim it twice a week. The 5 o'clock shadow that occurs inbetween shavings doesn't look bad at all.
