    Hopefully rare. It's more of a Muslim thing, isn't it? Although there are natural neckbeards. I pity those guys.

      No. Only among Wahabbists. It's probably most common, per capita, among Amish men. Every single one of them must sport a beard like this. It was also very common in Europe and North America in the 18th and 19th centuries.
      I'm growing one right now from a cleanshave on September 1. 🙂

        Muslim beard is different
        Amish shace everything in the face and cheeks and only leave the beard that grows in the jaw.
        Muslims leave everything and shave the stache

          No it isn't.

          See: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shenandoah_(beard)
          >This facial hair style is popular among followers of certain sects of Islam, as they believe it is how the Islamic prophet Muhammad wore his beard, citing the relevant hadith compiled by Muhammad al-Bukhari, "Cut the mustaches short and leave the beard".

          Retard.

          Only Wahabbists.They make up a tiny percentage of all Muslims and are concentrated in Saudi Arabia. Very few Muslims actually wear a Muhammad beard. Sadly.

          That's a chinstrap beard. Different style entirely:

          They just shave the mustache, they do this because in their eyes mustaches are a sex symbol.

      It's not a neckbeard. It's called a Shenandoah. AKA an Amish beard, a Lincoln, a whaler, a Donegal, a spade beard and an Old Dutch.

    clean shaves seemed to be popular, probably because it made it easier to manage fleas and lice

      Humans growing hair above their lip is a relatively recent mutation. Originally primates lack hair above their lips.

      All other great apes lack hair above the lip. See gorillas, chimpanzees, bonobos and orangutans.

      It's not a fucking neckbeard. Stop using words you don't understand the meaning of. A NECKBEARD IS A BEARD THAT GROWS SOLELY ON THE NECK YOU FUCKING MONGOLOID.

    It doesn't have a historical basis, it's all symbolic for the Amish. The reason the Amish have beards like that is because it's part of their Ordnung, or code of living. A neckbeard indicates that an Amish man is married, and any other form of facial hair (especially mustaches) is verboten because it resembles military officers (or at least it would've resembled military officers back when Anabaptist doctrine was formulated)

      It's not a neckbeard. You don't know what a neckbeard is, clearly. Simpleton. Everything you have said has now been discredited and nobody will bother reading it because you are a fucking moron who understands nothing.

        >verboten
        You can just say forbidden. It's literally the same cognate word from the same Proto-Germanic root. Spastic.

        If you're gonna argue with me give me actual points instead of "YOU USED WORD SLIGHTLY WRONG, OPINION DISCARDED"

          >YOU USED WORD SLIGHTLY WRONG
          No, you tried to be a pretentious cunt using verboten when there's a near identical cognate word already in English, forbidden, that comes from the same Proto-Germanic root. The condescending way you try to explain to me what ordnung means to me was perhaps the cherry on top of your pathetic little post.

            I used it as a joke, goddamn. It's a cognate and it goes with the Pennsylvania Dutch theme. You hear people using the term verboten as a joke occasionally. Lighten up
