It is a fact that perverts and effeminates have hijacked the beard and stache, but the interior of a person emanates through the external, thus, it's still probable for a woke, unworldy Catholic to identify who is a real man or a sissy, and who is a Godly man or a reprobate.

Can you rephrase that? I’m not sure what you mean.

As already noted, in Eastern lands a smooth face carries with it the suggestion of effeminacy. For this reason the clergy, whether Catholic or Schismatic, of the Oriental churches have always worn their beards. The same consideration, together with a regard for practical difficulties, has influenced the Roman authorities in according a similar privilege to missionaries, not only in the East but in other barbarous countries where the conveniences of civilization cannot be found.


It's not just in the East that men normally produce facial hair if no external intervention occurs. In fact, western men are MUCH BETTER at producing beards! Look at the Irish, Scottish, Germans, Polish, etc! They invented the term "5 O'clock shadow". A lot of those nationalities are even capable of the "Nicholas Cage" beard, where there's NO natural dead space at all around the lips. The only step above that is to grow hair on the forehead and become a full-on Yeti!

It is literally more effeminate to be clean-shaven. Women can't grow beards (freak shows aside), so being clean-shaven brings a man THAT MUCH CLOSER to looking like a woman.

Isn’t it in the Rule for Capuchins to not shave, ever? I remember hearing a story about how Padre Pio used to joke that he joined the Capuchins because he wanted to grow a beard.
