I used to rip/rub my clothes - absolutely loved the texture of the hems of a ripped up pair of jeans. It’s socially a little odd to keep a piece of denim in your pocket to fidget with.

But my beard? Always with me. Accessible 24/7. The texture is always changing and interesting. Stroking my beard makes me look like a smart person thinking about things. A+++

    I’m pretty sure you’re wrong on this.

      If he’s touching his beard all day, he’s going to need to oil his beard regularly because his fingers will be stripping the oil from his hair. When it’s oil is stripped, his hair will pull oil from his face via his hair follicles to get back to its equilibrium. Without additional oil his skin will dry out and flake and his follicles will get overworked, and over time due to the additional stress they will drop their ability to produce colour.

            It sounds like you’re making up science.

              I’m just telling you what I’ve learned from research and experience. If you choose to ignore it that’s fine by me. Please look into using a beard oil if you have a beard, or don’t, it’s your beard. You do you.
