Women, why do you wear bright red lipstick?

I've heard people say "a female baboon's butts turn bright red when she's in heat, and since humans and baboons are both primates, girls are obviously trying to make their lips look like a baboon's butt". Or it's supposed to make guys think about a girl's lady parts, but if her lady parts looked like that, she should probably see a doctor. So do you wake up and think to yourself "I want my lips to look like a baboon's butt"? Really, why do you wear it? Because I've seen lipstick that is so bright, it will cause me to focus on the bright color, detracting from the natural beauty of a girl's face.

  • Usually I wear it if I'm feeling daring or it suits my makeup or outfit that day/night. I just like the colour red and it makes my teeth stand out and seem really pearly white which I like the look of. I guess it's a personal preference and the occasion you're attending.

  • I don't always wear red, but when I do, it's because I'm feeling daring.

  • Because we like it and it may give us confidence. No girl tries to look bad. We are not dressing for you. The only time i will dress for a man is when im dressed to meet jesus, in my coffin. Men or sex, or monkeys for that matter, have nothing to do with it.
    Sorry if this comes off rude, it upsets me to.think guys really think everything we out on ourselves is for them. And if that wasn't your point then i missed it and im sorry:/

    • Before lecturing me that not everything women do has to do with guys, I should lecture you on how to pick up on sarcasm, because looking at your reaction, you obviously have some trouble picking up on sarcasm.

    • First, i got the monkey sarcasm. Hint to the point of me bringing it into my comment before. That whole thing was not attacking you, it was the fact that some guy will see this and be like "my girl wears red lipstick and it just makes a mess on this big dick of mine lol" Should i lecture you on how women are being murdered because of the word "no" and the color of their lips and their favorite dresses. So sorry i offended you on your question that is open to the public that you posted, looking for responses.

    • "We are not dressing for you"...it sounded like you were calling me out specifically, so saying "you" probably wasn't the best wording. So you meant guys in general.

    • Show All
  • I think that Red is a very sexy color expecially women. It make us feel really good confident. Every girl is different. But it can be many other reasons why we wear red lipstick.

  • I wear it pretty often (am wearing it in my pic lol) it looks better when I'm blonde though. And I wear it because I like it.

  • I like the way it looks and that's that. Most of the time if I wear it I'm not doing it for anybody else's approval so

  • Because it goes well with my skin tone and *I* think it's pretty

  • red lipstick is hot and gives a pinup/classic look...it also shows confidence

  • I have pretty full lips making them the center of attention and making people look at them more

  • stewie says girls who red lipstick are attention seeking Jezebels

    • A girl was flirting with me all day, then the next day was wearing bright red lipstick, and that day was initiating conversation more than she ever does. So what do I care if she's attention seeking. I just think if it's too bright it doesn't look natural.

    • she obviously got your attention, right?

  • Oh hey 💁💁💁💁💁

  • Personally, I hate red or black pr brown lipstick because it looks too much for a natural look. I prefer light pink or peach. I also hate red or dark nail color.

  • I wear it when I want to wear it, period. Lol I don't do it for anyone but myself

  • i don't think i've ever worn red lipstick

  • The social explanation: Red lipstick conforms to standards of beauty, style and confidence.
    The biological explanation: Men are subconsciously attracted to sexual arousal. Women wear makeup which mimics sexual excitement.
    When a person is sexually aroused, blood blow increases to the lips and cheeks, pupils dilate making eyes darker.

  • i dont wear it i only wear nude natural colors. but if im going to a party special event i will to chnage it up look glamourous
