Serious question. If a woman had some hormone imbalance or was from Alabama can could grow a beard (you know we’ve all seen the broads with a mustache), would they be required to shave?

I’m not talking bearded lady kind of shit, but inch long darkish hair on the chin.

Things may have changed since Skid Row was popular.

Yes...I would say I saw it somewhat happen but she shaved it herself manly for her own image, not because she would have been told to.  Facial hair is a risk if you need to wear a gas mask.  There are a few people that got "no shave chits" due to bumps but not sure if they lost deployment status until it went away.

ETA...as a note it could depend if you were in the airwing or a ground pounder.    I was not in the aviation area so anyone else's results might vary.

Nice. It's about as contemporary as the Army's SQT tests.

BIL just retired in May after his 20.  He says under the new Biden rules, Army and Marine MALES can wear nail polish.

Clear only. Has nothing to do with Biden.  Those changes were being worked way before the election.

To much rules there is oppression and incompetence.

Even in the military world there is definitely a balance that has to be followed.

For now we have the balance dispite our weak kneed gov.

I was in VX-5 with aviation Marines from 86-90. They were all high and tight just like all the ground pounders. Their staff sergeant took them out for a run every day too.

But some of them didn't eat crayons.
