Move Over October, It Is Movember
And I thought the Oregon Commentator was all alone in caring about mustaches and manly things this month. I was so wrong. Movember is a charity event held during the month formally known as November to raise as much money and awareness about male health issues as possible. Men begin the month by submitting a clean-shaven photo and then have the remainder of the month to grow and groom their Mo (Australian slang for mustache I am told). Men that get involved are referred to as Mo Bros and the women that help them are called Mo Sistas. Well if anyone wants to get involved I will be his supporting Mo Sista, ‘aight. I encourage you to check the whole Movember thing out. Oh yeah and Playboy is a big sponsor. Just in case you were wondering.
Oh yeah it is not only considered a month but also a place, the Republic of Movember. Kinda like Jefferson…
Sounds like a knock-off of No-Shave November.

Actually, NSN doesn’t specify what kinds of body hair it does and doesn’t include, so in theory, a woman could not shave her legs for a month and be able to participate in NSN’s pledge-gathering for Save Darfur.
