    I’m into very niche fashion. I love it so much, because it’s fun.

    Once had a guy, a stranger, completely unpromted, scrunch his face up in disgust and ask “is that supposed to be sexy?” as I was walking past.

    Sorry that my fashion choices don’t sexually stimulate you, you wee little garbage pail man.

    The less it’s for me the more I like it. Good make up is, at best, fraud, Great make up shows a creative personality which will still be attractive when it’s smeared across your pillow in the morning.

      I am a fan of makeup and don’t really understand why so many men try to claim they aren’t. I generally like more a natural look, but I can also recognize that the natural look takes a shitload of effort and makeup applied in a skillful way. But I can recognize that “natural” makeup is a conscious choice and looks better than actually not wearing makeup.

      And, to the point of this comic, it’s really sexy for people to make their own choices and do things for themselves rather than to attract others.

        I claim I’m not because that’s just my preference. I’m also not a fan of people doing things solely for the approval of others. If someone wants to wear a ton of makeup because they like it, more power to them. Just don’t do it for anyone else.

    Went to the office as a woman one Halloween. (Won the contest!) No one knew who I was, not even old friends. Hell, one friend straight checked me out, bottom to top. That was a system shock.

    I now have an appreciation for women and makeup I would never have felt. Also, I apparently touch my face, a lot. What a pain.

    As a cis white male, i don’t see any issue with makeup. Ive thickened my eye brows with what i think was eye liner for a job. Idk honestly, i was told by an ex to do so to look more mature for my interview. I got the job.

      My friend and I were running an experiment with c. elegans. A wannabe worm that reaches a whopping 2mm in length.

      And we needed a poking stick.

      An eyebrow hair glued to a toothpick would be perfect. I have very fine hair, and my eyebrows are sparse too. So Iook at my friend, and his densely forested bushy brows. He point blank told me he had done his eyebrows and was wearing makeup. Just my luck. So I plucked out a few hairs. I had a visible bald patch on my eyebrow for a few months. Like a shitty attempt at shaving a small streak of eyebrow.

      It was also in a GMO lab where students sometimes worked with antibiotic bacteria. That means the place is a contaminated mess with mystery superbacteria. I got a minor infection on my eyebrow. I was fine, but learned my lessen to never touch my skin again in a lab.

      I used to be supportive of men wearing make up. Little less so after that. xD

    Make up for women is like the gym for guys

    Sure, you may start to impress your preferred gender.

    But after a while, you stop caring about impressing your preferred gender, and more about showing off to those who can appreciate your efforts.
