Pretty unbearded

Someone wrote…

I’ve been wearing a beard for a couple months. I enjoyed it, got compliments, was pretty proud of it. I got bored of it today and shaved. Then I exfoliated, moisturized. I quite comfortably identify as male, though I’m never quite sure what that means to others. Right now I feel pretty and I’m pretty much loving it.

What’s your experience?

And what are you thinking about gender right now?

    I sometimes go a couple of days without shaving out of sheer laziness, and while it’s always a pleasure to get rid of whatever face fuzz has sprung up, I never quite get that feeling. I wish I did!
