Women and Makeup

post #1 of 26

Thread Starter 
Are any women actually attractive without makeup? Why is it that so many women without being dolled-up look like they just escaped from an internment camp? Blotchy skin, series of bags under their eyes...Jesus, most guys seem to have better skin than they do. Christina Ricci looks like Ed Asner without makeup...
I've come to the conclusion there are only a minute fraction of natural beauties actually out there. This makes it all the more frustrating considering how many unrealistic expectations women place on men. They really do have it easy: glob eight pounds of makeup onto their nightmare faces and sit back and choose who they want.

Unlike women, men have to rely on natural beauty to attract a mate. Or money...

On dating sites, women often place far more stipulations on their dates than men do.

So no experience with actual women lead you this conclusion then.

Yes, they just don't work in the entertainment industry.

It's a bell curve.

a lot of them do but what on earth possibly makes you think comparing a zoomed-in paparazzi shot and a goddamn pro photoshoot is anything near a fair comparison?

I wouldn't date someone who only looked good in makeup. But I would bung someone who did.

Well, the girls I date apparently do not have unrealistic standards or else I'd never get any play...I do, however, know a lot of girls that are far more superficial than any guys I know. The only difference is that guys are actually up-front about their superficiality, while women attempt to hide that fact.

Make up was invented for a reason. Think of it like clothes. No one looks as good hanging around the house in a stained sweatshirt and baggy jeans as they look in well tailored, high quality clothing.

Nevertheless, occasionally we all wear crummy clothes around the house.

Women deserve a break once in a while too.

Bad choices in picture comparison. Why not select one from a premier or event where she's done up. That way you don't have airbrushing, lighting and Makeup fudge things up for you?

And also how about picking an image that isn't the single worst paparazzi shot of her in existence?

This thread fails on so many levels.
