What do you think of boys wearing makeup?

[SiKGuy]

Hi i'm a 16j old boy and I like wearing makeup :) what do you think of boys wearing makeup?

[JeggingsMan]

I'm not sure how to word my answer. I've always had a hard time putting my thoughts into words, spoken or written. So if my post is jumbled sorry about that. Anyway, Both my wife and I think that there is WAY to much hate and negativeaty in this world. I personally think men with makeup on should be only for cosplay, crossplay or Holoween. But that's me. Don't let it stop you from going out in public with makeup on. Like others have posted, a lot of men go out in public with makeup on. On that note don't do something just because others do it. Also don't not do something because others don't do something. Be your own self. You be You. As long as your not harming anyone or anything, it's all good. The picture I attached is the outfit I put on last Holloween, I also Crossplayed this for a Cosplay event last February ( 2018 ). Chun Li from Street Fighter. Both times my wife offered to do my makeup. I declined dew to the fact that I don't have the confidence to go out in public with makeup on. Hope my post helped and wasn't to jumbled.

Not for me, unless it was theatrical makeup for a show, or for a costume party.

Now, assume it became "the norm" for most westernized cultures (which by this point, I don't see happening), it'd be another dang thing for me to have to learn. Already have to be fit, have the right facial hair amount, have to style the hair, have to wear the right clothes, have a great fashion sense, keep up with buying new shirts and pants and find how to do a great fit in order to be our best and impress women, I don't think us having to learn makeup is going to go over well. Then we have to learn how NOT to get it all over the place.

get help
One of the signs of the last day is that men will look like women, women will look men,
Now men have long hair, they wear make-up, got rid of their beard and mustache, what else are they going to do- wear skirts, high heels and nail polish.
Sorry to break it to men- you are men.
Sorry to break it to women- you are women.
Men should be men, women should be men.
There is a saying, "don't be too open minded, that your brains fall out."

[kingofknights]

wait, so it's unmanly to shave beard and have long hair? wtf.
It's unwomanly to have short hair or medium length hair, drink beer and act assertive.

[danielmeegan]

Lol your right

[Shezadi]

@danielmeegan thanks

[Shezadi]

@kingofknights I was just giving an example, how men took baby steps to become feminine, and men are not supposed to have long hair.

[danielmeegan]

Your right my friend

[PrincessPie]

I'm not into it romantically.. meaning i wouldn't be interested in a guy i wanted a relationship with wearing it, but i don't care about it apart from that

[hellacray]

Depends like are you just wearing foundation and concealer to hide scars and pimples?

Or are you going all out to look like a diva?

Either way I have no problem with it. Hell I've been to Sephora before and had one of the workers there help me pick a foundation, and holy crap I can't believe how much women spend on makeup.

Anyways if you're going to look like a diva you might draw some attention, but I personally wouldn't care. I mean I've seen a lot of women walking around with colorful hair and dressed like a man.

[SiKGuy]

In most cases i just do some foundation to hide pimples

[DementedCutie342]

I don't have a problem with it some of the guys are extremely talented and creative and it's fun to watch I personally enjoy Jeffree Star a lot and watch him often. Honestly I've even learned some great make up tips from guys. Make up is fun why should women be the only one's to have fun and play with it.

[MemeSupreme]

depends on how it looks and how much you have it like the guy on the left (andy biersack) he's fine for me at least but the guy on the right yeah no

[Matt57]

I agree with this

[splashofyellow]

I think it's great that men are finally realizing that if they want to wear makeup, they can. It was probably invented for men in the first place anyway.

That being said depending on the amount of makeup and how it was done, it would affect how attracted I am to someone. I can't imagine being attracted to someone in full glam like in the picture g@g chose.

[hellionthesagereborn]

I think its terrible. I mean its your life do with it as you please but their is a reason males have certain behaviors and females have certain behaviors. When men stop acting like men you get the collapse of a society and this is just evidence that we are slowly degrading.

[Letitgoogoo]

I support it and I think anyone should be able to do anything they want.
I'm a tomboy who wears guys clothes and is mostly masculine. And i love it.
If the guys love wearing makeup too then i have absolutely no issue with it and would even be friends with a person who does makeup.

[devilman666]

I think it should be absolutely fine. Men in hollywood do it literally all the time and women swoon over them.

The only advice I give is not to make yourself look like a clown (unless you're trying to get that kind of a look for some specific purpose), but I'd suggest that to women too, if it looks ridiculous then it isn't attractive.

[maiave]

I think they can do whatever they want to.

I think this is kinda bad but if I see a guy in full face makeup like Manny Mua in the picture, then I will most likely assume he’s gay and not be attracted to him.

However - in the past I’ve put makeup on my boyfriends. And that I love, it’s kind of a turn on. That they’re not afraid to be feminine sometimes. Like one day I casually asked my boyfriend if he’d let me do his makeup, and he said yes. It was more of a fun thing to do, for me at least.

[SiKGuy]

From where are you

[maiave]

why?

[Amejonne18]

IT'S AWESOME!! I love that men finally feel comfortable enough to wear make up and saying it out loud. And honestly, some men are way better at make up than some women. So please, to all the men, wear make up if you f*cking want it!

[vishna]

I would not date a man who wore eye shadow or eye liner, contoured etc. But I would date a guy who wore a light touch of concealer. (bc under eye bags are the devil haha) hell, as long as he could lay it on me in bed-I wouldn't care about a bit of concealer

[ZambieMouse]

I have absolutely no problem with guys wearing makeup, as long as they wear it well and know what they are going. (Learn the techniques before wearing it out!) I think my main problem with it is a lot of guys who wear it don't know how to wear the makeup, so the makeup wears them. But if you like it and feel confident in it, then go for it. Not a turnoff at all.

[ThisAndThat]

If they were doing it lightly such as to hide something like ache blemishes or something like that, yeah. But if they're over doing it to the point they look like they're trying to compete with females then I would have to say no way. No guy wants to hit on and later find out that he hit on another guy, that's disgusting.

[Chaz269]

If they're not taking anything from me or someone I care about, and they're not tryna hurt me or someone I care about, I don't give one microgram of shit about what anyone else does to themselves or other willful participants. I believe wholly that anyone who feels otherwise is either a fascist or an anarchist. I'll gladly murder both on my property and defend it in court.

[hoodiegirl]

It's ok I don't really care as long as it dosnt suck/look bad then it's a bad thing lol, but that applies to everyone wearing make up don't steps over closed minded people be you nobody should view negatively at that...

[Daniel24NL]

I think everyone should mind to their own. If a guy wants to wear make-up, he should and he should not care what others say about it. If he does it to 'make him (more beautiful), it probably is not needed and he does it out of insecurity. To each their own I always say, and if it makes someone more comfortable and more secure, why not?

[CarpetDenim]

I think it’s okay for a guy to wear makeup to cover his blemishes or whatever, but if the goal of a young man who decides to put on makeup is “I want to look more feminine,” I don’t like it at all.

[janeross0915]

It is new to me. I don't really understand the reasons behind doing it because sometimes I see a guy with a full beard wearing makeup. I am not against. I am just a bit confused

[Anonymous]

It is gross and unnatural. I don't even really like how girls fake their appearance with makeup but at least they don't give me a feeling of repulsion like I get when I see a dude with makeup on.

The makeup industry is such a scam and a huge waste of money. Men were smart in avoiding the trappings of the makeup industry. I don't know why anybody would waste thousands of dollars a year in order to fake their appearance.

[ciitruskiwi]

Sure, do whatever makes you happy. And some guys are great with makeup, look up James Charles his makeup skills are amazing.

[Nxtawm]

Romantically if they don't wear too much then it's fine but wearing too much like James Charles (still love him tho lol) level is a turn off. But if it's not romantically then I'm fine with it, I think it's cool

[Nxtawm]

Also if you like make up then fuck the haters, you just do you
