I started shaving when I was 12. (I think it's the Welsh blood in me.) And I grew a goatee in college. In 1986. Even the jazz majors thought it was edgy, because at that time, I think I was the only person apart from Dizzy Gillespie and Kip Thorne to do it.
My facial hair grows so fast that keeping myself clean shaven is a serious, time-consuming pain in the ass, especially as someone who is NOT a morning person. So I have a full beard, though I do keep it very neat. And no neck beard!

I'm jealous! Mine gets too damned itchy before it ever results in anything resembling an actual beard.

Conditioner is your friend. It always itches the most while its still short.
I had a beard (on and off) for many years and they are useful things: They keep you warm and you can keep things in them, like pens, and breakfast (useful when you fancy a mid-morning snack).
Beards do however have two major disadvantages: 1) Some women don't like them, so you have to be prepared to make concessions (but they're easy enough to grow back). 2) More importantly, they go grey before your head hair!
No facial hair - through some weird quirk of genetics, my hair is a mixture of blond strands and very dark brown. I think some of it is sun bleaching, or the way it refracts light, but it's a definitive mix "natural highlights"
But my beard and mustache are BRIGHT orange/red. So, in the end it looks very silly like I've done some strange dye job on one or the other.
i hate facial hair, mine grows in so thick and pretty fast, but out of laziness i only shave like once a week, luckily gilette pro fusion can take out pretty thick stuff
in high school i use to rock a solid goatee, but those days are over, i prefer no facial hair
Depends on two things: 1. Only if well groomed. There's nothing more laughable than a badly kept beard or moustache. If you're not willing to actually care for it, don't grow your face garden out. Too many nerds just let their facial hair grow. It looks like shit, and makes you look stupid. Don't do it.
2. Moustaches go great with beards, not so great on their own. You are not Tom Selleck.
I currently sport an awful depression beard that ive accumulated over the last couple of months out of laziness, disinterest, and givenupitude. It's everything I hate about fat nerd beards. Don't be as pathetic as I. Be a better person. Bear your beard with pride.
I have a weird inconsistent beard growth, but you gotta play with the cards you got and with some tenacity and determination, you'll find your inner dwarf eventually. So yes, I have a beard. Currently it's looking a bit hoboesque since I haven't groomed it in a month or so, but I've grown accustomed to it now and can't see myself without a beard any longer. It would feel really naked without one.
I'm kinda torn between no facial hair at all (like my avatar, or perhaps Matrix style) and something like my favorite Wizardry 8 portrait
Since I can't be bothered to shave everyday and I'm not engaged, so nobody can complain, I'm usually looking pretty close to that Wizardry guy, except a bit less brutal.

I'd prefer to have no facial hair. But often out of laziness I let it grow out.
