If He Likes It Then He’ll Put A Beard On Him

While some cultures see a beard as a sign of man’s wisdom, the Amish have a whole different reason for growing some facial hair. You see, the Amish don’t exchange wedding rings, and instead, the men stop shaving their beards to let it grow.

This is their sign of showing that they are off the market, keeping them in line with the rules of the Ordnung. It is also a symbol of their commitment to their religion, their wives, and their family. They don’t grow mustaches to set themselves apart from those who sign up for military service.
