Allgemeines Gleichbehandlungsgesetz, i. e. German Civil Rights Act. They didn’t even hesitate to make Angie chancellorette just to prove it.

@Kai: Where on earth have you read or heard such a tale?

This would imply at least 50% of female managers wore moustaches, since german companies employ exactly same proportion of each sex in each position by law.

>Please also note, any form of mustache, no matter how ridiculously shaped, >is perfectly acceptable.

Not true

Please read about “Pornobalken” and while you are on it google for “Vokuhila”

hehe, now that’s interesting ^^ but i’d like to add that bus drivers very frequently have a moustache, too. so be careful if you do grow a moustache, it might be contraproductive to your management carreer

Just read this article and was about to contribute the “policemen thing”… but what can I say …. all these comments are more than brilliant!!!

Oh, and by the way, I’m German and I’ve never had a moustache… But I’m still fond of my sideburns…. :-)))))

everytime i see a propag^Wdocumentation about the us navy, i realize that 50% of the crew is wearing a mustache.

while beeing involved in the nightlife i meet many policemen, and none of them got a mustache. at least none of the “rapid reaction” crews.

i thought americans are so proud of their history? why did you forget all the mustaches in the civil war? :E)

So it was not Hitler’s weirdo-shouting, but rather his mustache? Same with Stalin in East Germany, I guess.

In America we generally want our leaders clean shaven

Now I finally know why Grover Cleveland lost re-election.
