Movember: Top 10 'taches
The month of Movember is, sadly, drawing to a close. There are only two days left so hop over to the Movember website and sponsor your moustacheod mates or, if none of your pals are taking part, why not sponsor one of the mysinglefriend.com team? You can check out their continuing good work in growing their mo's here. We're secretly hoping that our team, and Movember men everywhere, keep their moustaches as we reckon that the tide is turning and ladies are starting to find guys with a bit of face fuzz rather attractive. With this in mind we've put together this guide to the Top 10 Most Dateable Mustacheod Men Through History in a bid to inspire them (we appreciate that many of them aren't with us anymore, but just play along).
Charlie Chaplin
Everyone likes a guy who can make them laugh and Mr Chaplin comes well qualified to do so; his famous brand of physical comedy would have you in stitches. The only downside might be his total lack of speaking which could get awkward over the dinner table. Perfect date: The cinema.
Albert Einstein
So, this revolutionary physicist might be somewhat intellectually intimidating but from pictures that we've seen (and making snap judgments based on hairstyles) it also looks like he's an unconventional bloke and up for a laugh. Perfect date: The Science Museum.
Errol Flynn
Mr Flynn has a reputation as a bounder and a cad (and the moustache to match), so you shouldn't pin your hopes and your heart on him, but be prepared to enjoy a sophisticated evening with a debonair charmer. Just don't expect him to call. Perfect date: cocktails and dancing.
Jimi Hendrix
Jimi Hendrix is an exceptionally cool cat onstage. We hope that this spills over into day to day life and he isn't one of those guys who offers to play you a song on his guitar and then noodles around on it for hours whilst you watch awkwardly and try to maintain a politely interested expression. Perfect date: An intimate gig in a hip, new venue, man.
Tom Selleck
Tom's 'tache is, frankly, the best 'tache of all. It's at once super cool and kind of friendly and it's a 'tache for all times too; from Magnum P.I, through Three Men and a Baby, right the way to Friends, Tom has maintained his mo across the decades. Perfect date: Pina Coladas at a beachfront bar. Probably drunk out of coconuts.
Freddie Mercury
Freddie should have hit the nation's collective gaydar like a rainbow-clad fist back when he unveiled this mighty mo back in the early 80's but it appears that nobody noticed or, perhaps, cared. The most flamboyant frontman in rock is a guaranteed good date; expect to have a quite literally outrageous amount of fun and maybe a slightly fuzzy memory of it the next day. Perfect date: A very wild party.
The Fresh Prince
It's a moustache so small that it's barely there but it definitely qualifies. The Fresh Prince would probably take you to the Banks mansion, have a bit of a squabble with his cousins and then take you out to meet his friend Jazz. Be sure to get a look at the Carlton Dance of you can. Perfect date: Chillin' out, maxin', relaxin' all cool.
Johnny Depp
Johnny has been rocking his moustache-and-small-beard combo for many a year, presumably because he knows it looks good. A date with Johnny really is pie in the sky as we know he's all happily loved up with the gorgeous Vanessa Paradis, but the ladies (and a large proportion of the blokes too) can dream. Perfect date: Beers in a dive bar.
Ryan Gosling
Man of the moment Ryan Gosling has been showing his attachment to the 'tache lately by sporting one in many a film and photo. He's apparently a sensitive kind of guy who is close to his Mum, loves his dog and is garnering a reputation as a bit of a feminist. Also: very good looking. Perfect date: Coffee in a cosy cafe.
King Charles
Not the royal one, but the musically talented, big haired one. He's a bit of a dandy and does look like a throwback from Regency times, but his dedication to his curly-tipped 'tache is impressive and he's poised to make waves in the music world with his unique brand of 'glam-folk'. Perfect date: A quick moustache curl then off to a cutting edge gig.
