A moustache <\/strong>(UK: \/m\u0259\u02c8st\u0251\u02d0\u0283\/; American English: mustache<\/strong>, \/\u02c8m\u028cst\u00e6\u0283\/) is a growth of facial hair grown above the upper lip and under the nose. Moustaches have been worn in various styles throughout history.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Marriage<\/strong>
According to a study performed by Nigel Barber, results have shown a strong correlation between a good marriage market for women and an increased number of moustaches worn by the male population\u2026. Barber suggests that this correlation may be due to the fact that men with moustaches are perceived to be more attractive, industrious, creative, masculine, dominant<\/strong> and mature <\/strong>by both men and women<\/p>\n\n\n\n

American Mustache Institute<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\n

The American Mustache Institute<\/strong> (AMI) is an advocacy organization and registered 501(c)(3) not-for-profit originally based in St. Louis, Missouri. In 2013, it moved to Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When founded in 1965, AMI was the only organization in the world working towards facial hair advocacy. AMI’s full-time staff supports more than 700 global chapters<\/strong>, which advocate for greater acceptance of mustaches in the workplace and throughout modern culture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Part of the organization’s charter includes supporting communities in which it works, and therefore AMI created a charitable fundraising<\/strong> mechanism in 2006 for organizations such as Challenger Baseball, a baseball league for disabled children<\/strong>. AMI’s first charitable fundraiser\u2014’Stache Bash 2006 \u2014 was held in July 2006.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In October 2009, AMI and Quicken commissioned a study entitled \u201cSaving And Spending Patterns of Mustached Americans\u201d. The research study examined a random sample of 2,000 Mustached Americans, along with 2,000 bearded and 2,000 clean-shaven Americans and found that Mustached Americans earned 8.2 percent more on average<\/strong><\/em> than those with beards and 4.3 percent more than the clean-shaven. The research also demonstrated that people of Mustached American descent also tended to spend 11 percent more and save 3 percent less than their collective counterparts.<\/p>\nWikipedia<\/a><\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
