beardsley showdown

The rare occurrence when there is more than one beardsley in the same room. Once the Beardsley notices that she isn't alone, the beardsleys begin to argue about whose beard is thicker and more hearty and lush. In the end, the beardsley with the most disgusting beardsely traits will reign supreme, the inferior beardsley will be killed.

The powers of two beardsleys would be detrimental if the Beardsleys decided to team up against society.
This is gonna be bad, those Bearded women are giving each other the eye. There is going to be a beardsley showdown.
