How's this worth a thread?

I don't like shaving my beard either but it looks retarded if I don't so I'm going to shave it if I'm going to go somewhere relatively important. Isn't that common sense?

That's like saying "he shouldn't be forced to shower" - And of course he isn't but others might appreciate that.

What's the point of this thread again? In my opinion it's completely ridiculous.

Eh, having a beard and not showering are a horrible analogy... Some looks better with beards than without, maybe people would appreciate them looking the best that they could, who are you to say?

I see a lot of people voting based on whether or not the beard would look good on him, and I don't think this is the issue here. The issue is whether or not it is right for Gom to force him to be clean shaven on camera. While it is within their rights to do so, I don't think it should be. Ethically it doesn't make sense for employers to be able to force people to have their beard/hair/etc. in a certain way. It's the same as how it used to be unacceptable for men to have long hair at "professional" jobs. I understand that they want their employees to look "professional", but what it really comes down to is an attempt to maintain the status quo of social norms. Who is anyone to say that having a beard or long hair is "unprofessional"? The focus should be on how the people conduct themselves, and as long as it is reasonable they should be allowed to groom themselves as they like. Obviously having a big scraggly-hobo-looking beard would not present an image that they care, but if a beard or hair is well maintained then there is no reason why a person shouldn't be allowed to have it.

Just because someone pays you for doing your job doesn't mean he should get to decide personal stuff for you. You can argue that this is "how it works" but you have to realize that with this statement you are legitimizing this form of power. Is it a good thing? Does it make any sense? If I have bad skin and end up cutting myself every morning while shaving is it rational to still do it? I don't care if Wolf grows a beard or not but I care about this kind of repulsive way of thinking.

I think in regards to being professional, he can deal with shaving his beard for work. I doubt he loses sleep over shaving
