Beard bashing

I have noticed a recent trend that bothers me greatly. I call it beard bashing. I don't mean people without beards belittling beard growers. I mean people WITH beards bashing others for not having them, not having a big enough beard, braiding or styling their beards, only having a mustache, etc, etc.
This kind of behavior is appalling. Why do some people feel they can tell others what they should or shouldn't do with their own bodies? The people doing this would be livid if someone told them they grew their beards wrong or that beards are wrong, But feel that it is acceptable to bash, belittle and insult others for making a similar choice. If you don't like it, don't do it. simple as that, and if you haven't got something nice to say don't say anything at all. 

I go to great lengths to encourage and support people in whatever they endeavor to accomplish. Compliments cost you nothing but can be worth more than gold to others.

I know this post is a bit ranty but I feel very strongly about this. Men who grow beards like to talk about how manly they are, well real men don't need to insult others. They can accept that others are allowed to make their own choices. They should be Gentleman.
