In a unique demonstration in Indore, India, a group of girls led a rally advocating for clean-shaven boyfriends, igniting a lively debate over personal grooming preferences.
The protest, which has since gone viral on social media, featured the girls chanting slogans such as “Beard Hatao,” “No Clean Shave, No Love,” and “Beardless Boyfriend Ki Tamanaah Ab Humare Dil Mei Hai” as they marched through the streets, capturing the attention of onlookers.
They carried a variety of humorous placards with cheeky messages like “Beard Hatao Ya Girlfriend Bhul Jao” and “Beard Hatao, Pyaar Bachao.” One particularly amusing sign read, “Beard or girlfriend… the choice is yours,” while another humorously stated, “A boyfriend doesn’t need to be educated or handsome, just clean-shaven.”
The rally has sparked a spirited discussion online, with some users supporting personal grooming choices while others questioned the need for such a campaign. Comments ranged from support for the movement to jokes about the focus of the protest. One user noted, “Mustaches and beards harbor trillions of germs besides causing some other hurdles,” while another quipped, “Then: protesting for freedom. Now: protesting for clean shaves. We have come a long way.”
Amidst the humor, some speculated whether this might be a parody or social experiment, with one user asking, “Tell me this is a parody or some social experiment. This can’t be true.”
