Subject: What's with the intriguing new mustache craze?

Written By: The Valley Goth on 04/02/13 at 1:18 am

Like, Hi, Fer Shurr,

What's with the intriguing new mustache craze? There are mustaches EVERYWHERE, and NOT just on hot men, raggedy men, or any OTHER types of men.

Mustache pendant necklaces, including those that read "I love mustaches", are featured everywhere these days, and mustache and beard lollipops are available, too!

I absolutely LOVE guys who have mustaches, beards, goatees, etc., so the new trend is cool with ME, but I really wish that I knew WHY it's such a hot trend these days. Some people are saying that the Steampunk style is responsible for this trend. I'm also wondering if the necklace trend is a form of feminism. The trend could also be due to a cultural love of new forms of wackiness!

I've had my 'stache since 1979.  :o

Wish I could have had one of those ridiculously thick ones like John Oates or even Glenn Hughes.  8)

I went with the "cultural desire to be wacky" option. It could be influenced by the Steampunk movement, but like Lyricboy mentioned, mustaches were also popular in the '70s.

I personally just see it as another fad that'll die out in about a year or two.

I used to have a moustache 10 years ago but then I decided to be facial hair free from now on.

Other: The Men's Health (prostate cancer awareness) thing gave dudes an excuse to wear a moustache, just like breast cancer awareness campaigns gave dudes an excuse to say "Save the boobies!"

Azis had a mustache until recently. You get a drag queen body with a face of a trucker:
