Do you have a gent at your house? Movember is a charity that raises awareness of depression & prostate cancer in men.

Why not challenge your man to grow a mo?

I'm sponsoring one of the PhD Students at work. He's going to look so different with his mo. I'm trying to convince him to go with "handlebars"

zen-excuse me? :mad: grrrrrrr....:mad:

some women might just have a man that is affected by depression or cancer & might tell a friend about movember to support their loved one.

light-a handlebar mow...:cool: photos if you can

Ian has a mow but i'll let him in on this!

My hub has a mo and a goatee. I would not like to see it shaved, even if I know it will be back in less than a week (yes, he's that good at growing hair--except on the top of his head). I looked at the second site but I didn't find anything to suggest it is used for men's health issues. The Aussie site is very nice.

I think it's a wonderfully unique idea.

My dh got rid of his Mo a long time ago. he looks kinda mean with a Mo. I like him better without. Can we pretend he has one?

I saw this mentioned in the local paper today too. Must be a world wide thing.

One of my sweeties wears a mini-Mo and goatee. He operates vintage trolley cars in San Francisco and his facial hair really complements the uniform and lends a nice retro old-timey look. Click here for photographic evidence (http://www.trolleypup.info/pix/071027-143839-228-Embarcadero-Market-IBstop-NW-lg.jpg). My other sweetie is full Asian and can't grow much facial hair at all, so I don't think he'll be participating in this event. :rolleyes:

Yes, and they've even met eachother. We don't all share time together as a trio, but it's a negotiated arrangement between all three of us. :)

My DH is doing it too. The idea is great but.....

What if he likes it & won't shave it off? I guess it's his face, but I have to kiss him :eek:
