Does already having a mustache and beard make me a trend setter...finally?

This sounds silly. Men start growing mustaches all the time and decide to shave randomly. How would anyone be able to make the connection between a new mustache and support for "men's issues"? And where do the "funds" figure in? Is someone going to pay men for growing facial hair, or do they have to pay someone to do that?

And as to the women's efforts, the suggestion is downright weird. How does doing something only a select few will ever see accomplish anything? Do they model the results? Is the discomfort and potential disapproval of those who don't appreciate their hirsute mate supposed to be the reminder of why they're doing this?

As much as I'm getting tired of seeing a rainbow of ribbons for every cause under the sun, at least that symbol is visible and understood. This program sounds like a farce.

Are you sure this wasn't posted on the Onion?
