I have a beard and moustache. I've shaved them off twice in 30 years (once about 5 years after I grew them, the second time in the last year or two) and I don't like the way I look without them. Since I will never 'pass' either way, I prefer to keep the facial hair. It certainly helps me that I'm not too dysphoric about my male physicality - I wish things were otherwise, but I can live with myself as is.
The world needs more men like Conchita Wurst. You don't break down barriers by being meek and staying out of people's faces - any sort of significant social change requires that people have their assumptions challenged, repeatedly.
