Guys with makeup, what do you think? - 07-14-2010, 08:34 AM

So here it is, what do you think about guys with makeup.
And when I do not mean make up on special occasions, but make up on a daily or frequent bases.

Expand your imagination and express your thoughts please.

I don't even like makeup on women (my wife never uses any) so you could imagine what I think about men who use it!

I think it's really gay to wear makeup. Only jrockers do it properly, and that's because they're artists.

What kind of make-up? Because the only guys I know who wear make up daily work in media and it's a routine part of their job. Doesn't make them seem weird even remotely.

Thinking back to high school, the guys who wore makeup (if ever) during the day were all the mad artistic sorts; sexuality completely aside. A few of the gay kids might slick on a bit for a night out, but that falls under 'special occasions' to me.

Does it bother me? Not really, although I probably wouldn't suit dating a guy with more cosmetics in his handbag than me.

There is no room for gender discrimination on any level. That covers even the "trivial." If a guy wants to wear make up, good for him. I applaud his willingness to stand up to sexism in all its forms; not just when it's directed at women.

It doesn't bother me, everybody's own decisions, he /she wants to wear makeup or not.
Actually I don't really like, when I don't see a face because of the so many layers of makeup. And I wrote this because here where I live I see so many women who wear a ton layers of makeup >_>.....
Makeup on men doesn't bother me, until it makes the face better, not worse...

Btw, I don't understand that, many European men thinks, makeup on men is disgusting and they looks like gays....
But.... I laughed at them. European men wore strong makeup for centuries, maybe their own ancestors too.. that means their ancestors was a gay? xD
For centuries both gender wore makeup, and for some reason, once they decided they don't wear it.

In western countries, so many of the men thinks hair on their face and body, ugly and aggressive words makes a man... I think, that's only disgusting. xD
In my opinion, a true man can be a man in laces and ruffles with makeup. :P

I think he was going for more of a "for what reason would any straight male wear laces and ruffles?" (Aside from acting, I guess).

It's an anachronistic style nowadays.
