Well then clearly I don’t associate with the right women 
(Actually, I don’t associate with much women at all lately, not since coming home after graduating college and then coming home from Japan. There’s my problem, of which I’m rectifying slowly and surely!) Thanks for the compliment.
Errr, I’m being such an attention whore sorry.
So, is this guy growing the chin pubes out? Maybe it’s just a passing phase.
What’s even worse than the soul patch is men who have the unfortunate luck to grow what really truly looks just like pubic hair, only on their faces. That is just the grossest look to me and I urge ALL beard-wearing men to look in the mirror, ask an objective friend, do whatever it takes and make sure your beard isn’t pubic hair.
GAG.
She’s right, listen to her. You are an attractive specimen of man.
For Og’s sake don’t ruin your chances by engaging women in conversation.
tell him it’s also called a ‘ball scratcher’ and he may shave it off.
If you’re a bonafide bluesman like Hound Dog Taylor (and that’s a righteous dude with 6 fingers on the fretboard) or even Bo Diiddly, then you can have a soul patch.
even Jackie Chan can’t pull off a soul patch.
So, what sort of facial hair is it OK to have? I’m growing a bit insecure here… The Ahab is still the epitome of manliness it always was, isn’t it?
Forgot to add, an ex also referred to that as a “womb broom.” ewwww
(Can I say that in here? My apologies ahead of time if not.)
Really now?
My husband has an irrational hatred of soul patches; I thought it was just his thing. I didn’t realize it was a gender-wide thing.
And now, because I’m in that kind of mood, here is Jim mid beard shave - he tried to look as stupid as possible for the picture to match the facial hair. 
I’ve always thought they looked like pubic hair, too! I should have known I’d find a kindred soul here!
Been away all day in work things.
On the way home from said work things, he calls to ask if I’m up to a night at a sports bar tonight.
“I dunno, is that rat hair still stuck to your chin?”
“Blow me, I think it looks good”
“A tip my friend, when you have that look, you lose the right to say ‘blow me’ to anyone”
I ended up going out with the wife who has considerably less unfortunate facial hair.
But only really because I’d have had to drive 30 miles to hang there.
Sad.
Sad.
Sad.
I dunno about you guys, but my holiday-grown soul-patch in no way resembles my pubes. Maybe you’re all just doing it wrong? 
Maybe there are men who wear a soul patch well but I’ve never seen one. They are not sexy. Either have a goatee, a full beard, or nothing at all. Occasionally men can wear just a moustache (those of you with thin lips, I’m looking at you!) but mostly men should avoid the facial hair completely. If I have to shave my legs, underarms, and hoo-ha, you can handle shaving your face. Seriously, no soul patches, mutton chops, thin lines of hair along your jaw, or any of that other stuff. ::shudder::
I prefer a fully grown in (not patchy) beard that is closely cropped to a clean shaven look on nearly all men.
But um…Bus Guy, you really have to tell him in no uncertain terms (not just jokingly) that he looks awful. I mean, really awful. There’s just no excuse for flavor savers.
Everything you mentioned before can be excused…but this is just like mold on a man’s face. I just want to wipe it off, like it’s something left over from dinner.
Wouldn’t it be odd to kiss a face with just some facial hair? Yuck.
