On a scale of 1-10, ten being "Oh god yes" and 1 being "ummm... I think your crazy" here is the question.

Does the slaughtering of cows make you more manly, intern making beards grow faster?

My initial reaction to this is it gets a 1, using the scale you have given.

But I suppose there could be an argument that the hormones given to cattle could (and does) affect human beings in ways that are not fully understood.

I'm sticking with the 1, though.


We can inspire others through witness so that one grows together in communicating. But the worst thing of all is religious proselytism, which paralyzes: “I am talking with you in order to persuade you.” No. Each person dialogues, starting with his and her own identity. The church grows by attraction, not proselytizing.    - Pope Francis

Muzz, as I understand it, the question is "Does the slaughtering of cows make you more manly, in turn, making beards grow faster?" (The rationale being that being more manly induces a higher rate of beard growth.)

At the Real Life Bureau of Bureaucracies we have interns that can't grow a beard to save their lives! And they sometimes tend to bite too!

The answer to your question is completely and unequivocally no.  Now if you eat said cow and it has weird hormones in it, I suppose that could affect it, but in my personal experiences, it took me eight years to get to the point where I could grow a beard, and my affinity for beef is well known in my family.

Now, about your question about the usefulness of this...

Erm... strangest question ever. No, I think "Have you ever shaved with a cheese grater" was a lot weirder, but still, this is in the top 10. Anyway, thats definitely a 1.

Though I have never slaughtered a cow, I have cleaned and gutted animals before, since I was young and at the age I could not grow anything on my face much less a beard..

I dont get why you posted this...

Well, manliness is very subjective. If it makes the person doing the killing feel more manly, then yes. If not, then no. I will point out, though, that killing a cow isn't exactly an achievement since cows aren't at all dangerous. if you say, killed a bear, or a lion, or an alligator... then you've got more going for you.

No matter what, though, the rate at which your hair grows (facial or otherwise) is not affected by your perceived machismo or self esteem. So it won't help your beard out. Only rogaine will do that.

Ah, so this was meant as a joke!   I was really trying to avoid the subject of what our interns and other B'o'B 'ers looked like!  (other than us empty suits that is, beef goes right through us! 9.gif)

It depends if you torture it, or if you sacrifice it to the gods in order to be declared a man?

    Enviromentalists tell us that cattle industries are destroying the planet. I'm doing all I can, I'm eating the cows that are causing the trouble, but there's only so much one man can eat...*buuurrrppp*

    Icepick: How very Irish mafia of you, do you stick it in the ear, old school style?

    Does a cow become more of a cow if it kills and eats a human? There's your answer.


    Let no one yield, we're on the field where deeds eclipse the sun; where the brave are told on a thread of gold, the tapestry is spun. As they speak of dreams, their armor gleams, this calm before the storm... Where all can see their destiny, the bishop takes the pawn.

    GIVE ME MOAR COWS TO EAT!

    I saw slaughtered baby cow hearts on sale at an asian food market, I wonder how those taste like, I bet heart meat is 100% lean, maybe I should eat more heart, I hate fat.

    Well, before I was able to have my hair braided and be declared a man, I had to go into a field with the other candidates, and kill a cow (each of us).  Then we disemboweled them, hung the intestines around our necks, and threw the internal organs at each other in a frantic game of dodge ball.

    This rite of passage made me into the Norse warrior I am today.  My beard doesn't need any encouragement, because I shave it off every day with the keen edge of my dagger.
