Even over here, they're giving up on facial hair. It's the global feminization movement which seems to have hit the whole world. Short, clean shaven twinks with good hair and cute shoes are on super high demand these days.
I've been living in China, Korea and Japan lately.
If you wanna see feminized men with no facial hair. This is the place. Children will point at my beard and yell "furry' or "gorilla".
I agree with you though. The world is becoming metrosexual. Men 20 years ago were much more gritty and macho. Now men are turning in sensitive, politically correct fruitcakes in droves.
