Beards: Should it be Socially Acceptable to Pet a Strange Man's Face?

I have this little problem. I see a beard and I want to touch. Similarly to the way most teenage boys what to touch breasts or video games. Bears in leather vests, 45 year old married professors, 25 year old folk musicians, old crazy homeless men wearing one shoe. I am guilty of staring, flirting, fantasizing, and resisting the urge to fondle their faces. There is something about this overtly masculine accomplishment that gets my attention. Maybe I take after my mother. She once told me this story of how she fell in love with my father when he had a beard, despite the fact that it smelled like vomit after he ate pizza with extra cheese. Maybe it has something to do with the first man I ever saw had a big black beard, my dad, Dr. Koplovitz. Maybe I just like lumberjacks and bikers, and bears, oh my!
