This hoja says beardless men look like women

Murat Bayalal spoke on a television show this weekend, criticising men without beards.

Bayal said: “Burrat must increase beards. One of the two parts of the body that distinguishs a man from a woman is the beard”, writes Hurriyet Daily News.

For example, if you see a man with long hair from a distance you'll think it's a woman if he doesn't have a beard. Because today women and men dress alike. God damn it! You could think of something indecent”, he said.

Hodge statements have sparked a major debate in Turkey.
