overall good post, Riven, but I hope you're not saying that the root of all viking's problems with women lie in his moustache. Maybe that's a component. I have two friends my age (27) and they are both still virgins. One has never had a girlfriend in his life, the other has had one official girlfriend and a few other "dates" with girls he had ambiguously defined relationships that never became romantic or sexual. Both have multiple different issues with approaching and dealing with members of the opposite sex... correcting them all would be complicated. Having been there myself... I know that anyone who tries to attribute these failures to one thing and anyone who says that there is any one thing (outside of certain levels of fame and money) that will net you attention from women is full of shit. It's not as simple as we'd like it to be.
There are myriad different factors that go into the successful negotiation of new relationships. Personal grooming habits and the preconceptions that others will form about you based on your age are just two among many. If anyone is having trouble, from personal experience I suggest that a holistic approach by far works the best. This takes time and commitment, as results will likely be slow to come. For myself, I decided it was worth the effort, and I am still working at it.
