Folkies DO have facial hair, just check out the pix of the Great Adventure. Oh, OK, Alice doesn't, but everyone with a Y chromosome is giving their secondary sexual charactersitics free rein. Wonder if folky women are less likely to shave too, wherever it is that American women tend to shave... You don't have to answer this one!

No, but seriously folks, ha ha, I agree with Clinton who thinks that the term is fine, let's change the image. Actually not quite: The term is fine, and why worry about the image to outsiders? Anyone into folk has a pretty good image of folk even if that image does include beards. Anyone not into folk, who cares what they think?
