Since this thread seems easy, here's an update on wick cleaning progress... Since it seems stalled from 2 weeks ago?
- Badass Beard
: 375
- Badass Mustache: 94
(she/her)
I just finished off Badass Mustache.
Also, out of curiosity, is being an exceptional fighter + facial hair enough context for the trope?
A lot of the examples for Badass Beard and Badass Mustache that aren’t completely ZCE are either "Bob has facial hair and is the strongest/toughest fighter" or "Bob’s facial hair makes him even more intimidating."

Well, that sorta relates to A Real Man Is a Killer...
I could see "A warrior is automatically manly", but that seems to require A Real Man Is a Killer to first be established In-Universe, which I don't think happens often?
Perhaps if Real Life context is brought in, the argument could be made that "this author intended this warrior to be manly because in their culture, A Real Man Is a Killer"

Eh, too much work.
I don't keep those "good fighter" examples without further context, because there might be other "good fighters" that don't sport facial hair.
Badass Beard is under 200 wicks. ![[tup]](https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/Thumbs_up_emoticon_3268.png "[thumb up]"){kind=small}
ETA: What should be done about the example on Evil Counterpart Tropes, since it doesn't exist it's not a good counterpart to Beard of Evil.

I think we can just safely remove it since we don’t have a "good facial hair" trope.

Down to 100 wicks. Also, I think I found a ghost wick on Sandbox.Dacool1here as the page is blank, except for a commented out note that the page is blank.
The troper it belongs to (who now goes by SilverCrown) is still active.

All that's needed there is for someone to add and then cut another wick.
Badass Beard wicks are mostly taken care of, except for TRS related, archive, and the Dacool1here Sandbox (I tried but must have done it wrong because it's still there 
)

Don’t worry, I’ll take care of the ghost wick that’s on the sandbox.
Locking this thread as resolved.
EDIT: Couldn’t figure out how to get rid of the ghost wick either… oh well it’s just a sandbox

Crown Description:
Consensus was to merge Badass Beard and Badass Mustache into a new trope about facial hair indicating masculinity. What should the merged trope be called?
The Fighting Narcissist?
