Ancient Chinese people why the beard

Ancient Han people beard because the ancient Chinese believe that the body hair is given by the parents can not be cut, otherwise it is unfilial will be condemned by society at large.

The beard is a collection of hair that grows on the face of humans or some non-human animals: on the lips (upper lip beard, moustache), chin (goatee), cheeks and sideburns. Commonly known domestically as a moustache, visually the beard extends from the cheeks to the chin, hence the name moustache.

In humans, it usually grows only in adolescent and adult males, but some women with hirsutism or endocrine disorders also tend to have a beard.

Historically, men with thick beards have been depicted as having a variety of attributes, such as: intelligence, sexual prowess, manliness, and a higher social status. However, many times, men with bushy beards have also been prone to negative associations such as poor grooming and unkempt appearance. What is more noteworthy is that the wisdom and higher social status represented by the thick beard mentioned above is essentially a result of leaning, and in the old world of human beings, where productivity was backward and reproduction was the mainstay, the brute force guided by androgens represented "wisdom" and success, which had little to do with true wisdom. On the contrary, Einstein, Hawking and other recognized high IQ people are less body hair.
