Do Taiwanese dig facial hair or do they prefer clean shaved men ?
Iāve been sporting a goatee lately and my students tell me that itās ugly and dirty.
Kids donāt lie.

On the other hand,if you had a few moles,with an inch long strand of hair sprouting from themā¦that would be āluckyā.

I donāt think there is too much difference between Taiwanese and western women on this one. Some like it, some donāt. My girlfriend likes it, but no too long.
Time or length? My girlfriend doesnāt like it at all :no-no:

1-3 weeksā worth of growth. I donāt have anything to trim it though so I just shave it off when it gets scruffy. My girlfriend really likes it, even asking me to have a beard for CNY so that she could show me off to her sisters. 
Canāt say for sure whether or not Taiwanese ādigā facial hair, but I can say that I get cut off in traffic far less since having a shaggy full beard. Fear of beard perhaps? Either that or I look a bit like an unstable homeless man.

For some reason, the guy in my avatar is very popular.
Is that Jeremy Beadle?
No, heās much cooler than JB. His name is Zhang Fei.
If JB wasnāt dead,I would have to check his hands to be sureā¦is the man aware that he does look like this? 
Zhang Fei is the man. Jeremy Beadle is an idiot. There can be no comparison except they both sport facial hair.
Was. JB passed away in 2008.
Sorry to hear that , lets just say they werenāt in the same coolness category. Mr Blobby didnāt do it for me.
Edit- that was Noel Edmondsā¦they are all the same to me.
My experience, people give you no end of trouble for having facial hair. I even had my old work try to fire my by reducing my hours over this because a parent complained that I ālooked scaryā even though I was originally hired at that company with a beard.
For women, they always used to say in public that they hate it, but in private they love it.
Iāve been with my girlfriend for a few years now and itās the same thing. She will complain about the beard but likes to pet and stroke it all the time and cried when I shaved it off once. Her family always complain about my beard which is super annoying.
I donāt know how/why it got like this. Used to be that beards were a symbol of wisdom in Chinese culture
You revived a nine-year old post!
No one in Taiwan comments on my beard. But then Iām over six foot tall and weigh about 250 pounds, with big shoulders and a thick neck. And scars on my knuckles. And a bad attitude, and a mean look on my face.
And for some reason nobody comments on my facial hair!

Guess I better keep hitting the gym. Iām only 60kg 
I think most Taiwan do not like it or used to it, except maybe some envy if you have lots hair on top (Why do you have so much, what do I eat, ectā¦). I have hair everywhere, get comments on this. (Everywhere, on top or down under). I mostly shave everyday otherwise people notice and kids touch my face quite a lot on the sandpaper on my face. Like your GF, I also find my female friends in private will pet/touch my hair a lot, in public complain too much.
