Why did the Romans shave their beards ?

[MARCvSVIBIvSMAvRINvS]

How did you know.....studying sculptures or mummies? :wink: :lol:

Statues seem to fall over whenever i get near them so no...

Mummies arent worth studying since unwrapping a mummy is much less fun than unrwapping any re enactress..

Yes i would advise every Roman and Egyptian re enactor to go to the epilatrix.!!!

Greek re enactors are a special breed.......

Greek re enactressess are in clear violation!!! of the position held by women in Greek society, so if they do Amazonian re enactment, yes....

Hoplite re enactment... well.... not really!

their place is behind the stove or on the land if you want to be authentic. a Roman Matronae had more power than any Greek woman in ancient society. this is a historic remark, not a sexist one.

here follows a sexist one.... or a few actually hahahaha...

Spartan males need long hair, but not to pull the sword into their harts.... rather to pull a certain opening to a certain protruding organ.

which reminds me of a classical Roman author (please tell me which one it was again) who stated the following:

Aah, wretched are the Greek.... If they cannot have their women, they revert to their men, if they cannot revert to their men they revert to their boys. and if they cannot revert to their boys they still have their goats.

(or was it sheep?)

anyway... nuff said........
