...do like stubble on their men. But not beards.

Could that be connected with some element of masochism?

Possibly.

Personally I found that after about 5 days growth, if I turn my head too rapidly(well the left one at least, the other likes to stay cleanshaven) I give myself a nasty burn.

Whilst we're on the subject, for the males in the audience, there is a battery driven shaver for maintaining sideboards( kneedesks, wardrobes and Chesterfields) at a suitable length, but I've yet to get it to work as a stubble device( but if theres any inventors out there I have some ideas for adaptation).
Personally I'm stubbly much of the time as I have slow growing but tough whiskers, a sensitive skin and a tendancy to turn a new razor blade into The Texas Chainsaw Massacre.
The years have taught me a working method of using only disposable razors( less drag) going with the grain( yes your beard has grain) and using baby oil instead of shaving soap/foam.Any other bright ideas?

5 days is pretty much it for me. Then it turns into nasty ouch. And I make him shave it off.

Do you attack him with deliberately blunt razor blades and induced hands shaking ( if not feel free to use the idea for free)?

hmm, he won't let me shave him. But he won't go near anyone else with a razor either.

I refuse to kiss him, then he gets the message.

I remember when I was a Tedd. I was always going up to people with my cut throat razor.
No one ever kissed me tho'!

Actually I'm (slightly) too young to have been a Teddy Boy,but I wanted to be when I grew up and I'm still waiting( actually it's a plastic imitation cut throat razor)
