Movember

You want to know why I put up this guy's photo?

And what is Movember?

Movember - Changing the face of Men's Health

Movember the month formerly known as November is a charity event held during November each year.
At the start of Movember guys register with a clean shaven face. The Movember participants known as Mo Bros then have the remainder of the month to grow and groom their moustache and along the way raise as much money and awareness about male health issues as possible.

The obvious question is why?

The answer is because men lack awareness about the very real health issue they face, have an "eveything's okay" attitude and are reluctant to see a doctor about an illness or to go for regular medical checks.

The aim of Movember is to change these attitudes, make male health fun by putting the Mo back on the face of fashion and in the process raise some serious funds for key male health issues.

And why moustache?

Because moustache is not a fashion trend nowadays, so all the Mo Bros are willing to answer a lot of questions from people why he grows a moustache, willing to receive pro and cons about his moustache, accept what people say about his new appearance with moustache such as "you look older with that moustache" or "you look like Tom Selleck (means famous celebrity back then, yeah back back then)", "you look like Pak Raden (famous Indonesian character in the 80s)" accept the reality that he can not kiss his girlfriend without her giggles every time he does that.

Yeah, the Mo Bros are willing to live like that for the whole month in the name of good cause and to help his other brothers in the future.
