　　Ever wonder if growing facial hair has a purpose beyond making it easier to play "Spot the Hipster" at trendy urban coffee houses? Apparently it does.
　　觉得胡子除了作为装点时尚的元素再没有别的作用？很显然不是！

　　While modern may might grow a beard to intimidate opposing batters, prehistoric men grew beards to keep warm, intimidate enemies and protect their faces from punches. Plus, ancient civilizations saw beards as a sign of honor, and women today — while admitting they find bearded men to be 67% as attractive as clean shaven men — consider guys with full facial hair to be more respected, powerful and of higher status.
　　与现代人用胡须来恐吓对手相比，史前岁月中男性的胡须还有保暖和保护自己脸部免受拳头伤害的作用。另外在古代中胡须代表着荣誉和更高的社会地位，现代社会延续了这一点——虽然有67%的女性觉得大胡子男人一样很有吸引力，但是那些面皮白净的男性则更受尊敬，更强大，也更有社会地位。

　　But not all see hirsute men in a positive way. According to research gathered by Online PhD, beards can predict whether you’re a badass or board room material, and can have people seeing you as less generous, caring and cheerful… and older. Another reason to fear the beard? Possibly.
　　但是并不是所有的人都认为毛发浓密是好的。根据Online Phd收集的数据研究表明，通过胡须可以预测你是一个坏蛋还是一位董事会成员，同时还能分析出你别的方面：慷慨，小气和心情，当然更能据此猜测你的年龄。另一个担心胡子的理由？也许吧。
