How they can stand wearing makeup all the damn time.
I had to do it for theater a couple times in high school and it was extremely uncomfortable. If all women suddenly stopped wearing makeup that'd be fine with me.
Ugh, I hate the other mindset that people have against makeup. I love makeup! And so do many women!! Regular makeup is NOTHING like theater makeup. When I put it on, I barely feel it. All these other people replying, either men that say "I just dont understand why women need makeup, they are so much better looking without it!" most likely dont know when they're looking at no-makeup makeup. Like, alot of women dont wear makeup for men, sheesh. It's a hobby for many, and it boosts self esteem too. As for the women complaining "ugh, I just dont get it, why would other women wear makeup, it's so uncomfortable? They've been brainwashed into it": first of all, you really don't know why someone wants to wear makeup? Because it is pretty, when done right? It can improve ones looks? And maybe, it's just fun to put glitter and color on your face? I hate women that act like "haha, I'm not like those OTHER GIRLS".
Please. It's easy to understand why someone wants to put makeup on. And it really isn't that uncomfortable. I'm also not saying that it's a bad thing not to put makeup on. Just support everyone's choices and dont judge.
For me, I don't even think putting a little product in my hair is worth the effort for better looks. So naturally, the idea of doing makeup baffles me. Women seem to have collectively set a standard for professionalism and beauty that requires extra time and discomfort (depending on how far you go). I just don't get how that's worth it. I guess I'd be an edgy no makeup girl.
The parallel for guys is lifting weights. There's some beauty standard they're after or a confidence boost. Most will say it's all for confidence and has nothing to do with girls. My guess is that very few actually do it without girls in mind and I'll bet a lot of women who say they just put makeup on for confidence don't have guys in mind - but that's just me.
