    Protip: dont judge women by how they choose to present themselves. Its sexist.

    I think that the real sexism is in it being the norm that women have to paint their faces in order to be able to partake in society, lest they are deemed 'unkept'.

    i know some people delight in adhering to the rule, like many moslimas choosing to wear a headscarf. Or tradwifes seeking their submissive role in the family.

    I'm not judging them if they do, but I feel the mold that is the norm should not go unquestioned.

    However you can't go and criticize men for having an aesthetical preference, whilst championing the women's right to that preference, that's hypocritical.

        Nope. I don't look for anything, I just avoid certain things, as I suspect most people do in their romantic endeavors.

        You avoid makeup that you can notice. The vast majority of women wear makeup, and often go to great lengths for a “natural” look.

          Of course it is judging, everyone judges. You are doing so right now with those comments.

          People are allowed to have preferences. And too much make-up is indicative of having a fake personality. So I stay clear of those kinds of people as well.

          It's really not. Women wear makeup for all kinds of reasons. It's really nobody else's business but their own.

            I do like a bit of eye liner or shadows (or whatever it's called) lipstick/gloss, mascara.

            My dude this is exactly what "no makeup makeup" is.

              Older guy here.

              I have always avoided dating women who would plaster shit all over their faces. I'd rather see those pores, freckles (actually I'm sucker for freckles), etc. I do like a bit of eye liner or shadows (or whatever it's called) lipstick/gloss, mascara. Accents, if you will. But someone with their faces under a coat of primer, paint, and lacquer, like a car?

              Also, I want to have a good idea of what they'll look like in the morning.

                  I imagine that is it.

                  I never said that I am against makeup, or even against people with Amidala/Kabuki levels of make-up. You do you. I'm stating my personal preferences in the "romantic interest" area, which should be absolutely fine by everybody.

                  If you criticise my preferences you are being a bit of a fascist, no?

                  Go criticise furries, for example, in public, see where that gets you.

                    It's interesting that you have such poor reading comprehension. I'm stating what I find attractive, I state no opinion on amke up per se. You do you.

                      And that I find attractive. Even women who have no full face stuff, but do their eyeliner with those pointy ends, or whimsical stuff like that. I'm basically not attracted to women who look like real life versions of a beauty photo filter.

                            It's not poor reading comprehension. The post pertained to makeup formulations changing over time and you jump right in with your opinion on the kind of makeup you find unattractive, as if anybody cares. My issue is with the insulting way you describe women doing the kind of makeup that you don't like. You seem to feel that if you don't find it attractive, it's OK to denigrate it. It's rude and sexist because women exist and do things according to their own preferences and don't give a shit if you like it or not.

                            And I'm not the only one pointing this out to you, but you seem determined not to understand.

                              I think that the real sexism is in it being the norm that women have to paint their faces in order to be able to partake in society, lest they are deemed 'unkept'.

                              i know some people delight in adhering to the rule, like many moslimas choosing to wear a headscarf. Or tradwifes seeking their submissive role in the family.

                              This is largely dependent on what society you belong to. I'm a woman and I go out bare-faced all the time. There's nothing wrong with that. And when I choose to wear makeup, I have fun with it, because I'm doing it for self-expression, not to be socially accepted. A lot of women are like me in this way.

                              However you can't go and criticize men for having an aesthetical preference, whilst championing the women's right to that preference, that's hypocritical.

                              Both of these still pertain to women's aesthetics. Men having an opinion about women's appearances is not the same as women having an an opinion about their own appearance. There's no hypocrisy here.

                              Basically men's opinions on what women choose to do with their makeup are largely irrelevant and unwanted. Our faces, our choice. Men can have opinions about their own faces and aesthetics.

                                  Descriptive. If you reread, i'm stating what ** I** find attractive.

                                  Anybody is free to do whatever they like as long as they don't harm others, or cause an objective harm to society.

                                  Within those limits you may do as you please, and I'll defend your right to, but I don't have to like it.

                                  Commenting in discussions about makeup, to tell wearers of it that your dick doesn't get hard for them if they were their make up a certain way, is a very weird thing to do.

                                  Do you think people who wear makeup are doing it just for you and your pleasure, but as some are doing it 'wrong' you need to step in and correct them?

                                    If it was whitening lead, yeah. But you can have rouge from red ochre, literally dirt, aka egyptian earth.

                                    It can be the same pigment as with modern makeup just without the oils as a glue. Perhaps it wouldn't even cause pimples.

                                    Finely milled mineral powders are really, really bad for your lungs. A lot of makeup, for a very long time now, has been in this format.

                                      Cushion foundations and blushes are a big thing now, and gel and cream formulas for many products have been popular for quite a while now too.

                                      From the mid 00's to the late 10's in the west, the matte aesthetic was fashionable when it came to makeup, so everything from skin to eyeshadows and lipsticks was matte.

                                      Thrn the late 10's till now, dewy skin and heavier blush has been fashionable. So there has been a rise is gooey products and hydrating skincare formulae.

                                        Sheesh, this is getting tiring!

                                        I'M NOT TELLING ANYBODY TO DO OR NOT DO ANYTHING! I'M NOT JUDGING!
                                        I'M SAYING THAT I LIKE CERTAIN THINGS, AND DON'T LIKE CERTAIN OTHERS.

                                        If I'm not attracted to furries, am I being a bigot?

                                          I have always avoided dating women who would plaster shit all over their faces. I'd rather see those pores, freckles (actually I'm sucker for freckles), etc. I do like a bit of eye liner or shadows (or whatever it's called) lipstick/gloss, mascara. Accents, if you will. But someone with their faces under a coat of primer, paint, and lacquer, like a car?

                                          Also, I want to have a good idea of what they'll look like in the morning.

                                          That's such a Reddit take.
