Scientific Support for Beards. I don't know how scientific this is but I think it's just a nice, positive story about men.

A study from the University of Southern Queensland, published in the Radiation Protection Dosimetry journal, found that beards block 90 to 95 percent of UV rays, thereby slowing the aging process and reducing the risk of skin cancer.

The delicious irony of this is that they guy in the picture immediately below was wearing a tank top. So he prevents the sun from hitting maybe 30% of his face, but his entire arms and shoulders are exposed XD

Interesting article though :)
