During Movember (formerly November), join men all over America as they begin growing their "mo's"—Aussie slang for moustache—to raise funds and prostate-cancer awareness on behalf of the Prostate Cancer Foundation.

Throughout Movember, guys—or Mo Bros—grow their moustaches, while raising awareness and money for the fight against prostate cancer. At the end of the month, these Mo Bros gather at special gala parties throughout the U.S. to compare moustaches and battle it out for Man of Movember!

Mo Sistas (women who support their Mo Bros) are also encouraged to participate by raising money and awareness for male health.

Explains itself. Do you participate in this, or even heard of it?

I would, but I'm a bit handicapped.

Sure do! I'm going without shaving period. I just decided to do this too. I'm sure the men will love it.

^ You know, that may be a funny thought.. Neither sex shaves for the month of November.

 

[ayoitsStepho]

That's exactly what I've decided it should be! lol! Why do men get to go free from shaving and everyone else has to be ok with it? Screw that, I'm not shaving my legs or my pits and I expect everyone to be ok with that.

I would participate but I'm not a man.

For us girls, I heard there is a "Fanuary" ...

Movember is great! It's pretty big here. It's treat month for me - I love facial hair.

Ya know...if it wasn't fashionable nowadays and if it didn't have indie connotations I'd wear only my mustache for a while. But then I think how much I want to headbutt "guys in their early twenties wearing mustaches" when I see them on the street. Fucking pseudos!!

It's stupid I know. Count it as one of my very few pet peeves in life.

My work place is currently mo-powered.

I have stacks of mates doing this... and while I could do it in 3 days i just cant stand the itch of facial hair... they're all down on me coz they can hardly even grow a mo

That's when I lost interest :/ People don't do such things here!

In 4 weeks there doesn't grow a very great moustache on me anyway. And I look stupid with one anyway as several people have told me already

I would have done this if I had realized it was, in fact, November.

 

[DiscoBiscuit]

It's called "no-shave November" and I have my beard going.

Movember is the one month a year where you can't tell sleezy porn-star wannabes from the general population *shudders*
