Why do black men wear pencil-thin lip mustaches?

[bmd]

Instead of regular-sized full mustaches?

Some do... but it's more rare. Denzel Washington had a full mustache in Training Day:

But most black men wear mustaches like this:

I thought Jon B, the RnB singer from back in the day, could pull it off as a white dude. But maybe because he could almost pass for a lightskinned mixed guy.

i used to have a mustache and everyone made fun of it :( almost all my black friends have one and nobody says anything to them about their mustaches.

Truthfully I like it better than a full mustache/beard combo (partially cuz mind doesn't grow all the way) and i've had plenty of females tell me they love it which also doesn't hurt at all :confusedshrug:

Where yo stache at? (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6AR-1jyyNGQ)

Cuz the broads like it.

I rock the pencil thin with a taper fade and I got Ginuwine baby hair. I used to rock the Trey Songz braids but no no more. Sometimes I rock a light beard.
