Why do men care when women look different without makeup?

[Anonymous]

I posted this in the wrong catagory so i am reposting it in the right one.

If a woman puts effort into her appearance and looks very pretty and if she takes off her makeup and looks average. I've seen so many men get upset over women looking different but, duh a woman isn't going to have natural 16 mm lashes. Most likely they are also comparing a woman's bare face to another woman's made up face, or a celebrities face with work done, because many men cannot tell what the majority of women look like without makeup or when a woman isn’t wearing makeup. Meaning their scale of attractiveness in the first place is most likely off.

The more men criticize women's natural races the more it makes sense for women to wear makeup to avoid criticism and even ugly men making some type of cruel joke out of them, especially on the internet because they can get so brutal for no reason.

If a woman isn't butt ugly what's the issue?

[Lliam]

For me, it's not that makeup conceals what she really looks like. I'm just turned off by heavy makeup. I hate big, fake eye lashes, thick eye liner, face paint and gaudy lipstick. I wouldn't date a woman with such bad taste. I like girls who look fresh and natural.

But I do think tasteful makeup is charming. The natural, "no makeup" makeup look can subtly accentuate her eyes and lips and make her glow. It makes her look extra feminine. And I appreciate it when a woman puts in an effort to look her best.

I'm talking about a bit of concealer to cover shadows and even out her skin tones; mascara and a bit of eye liner (brown or black, depending on her hair color); and a natural shade of lip gloss to define her lips and make them soft and moist.

That kind of makeup doesn't hide her face. Calling it false advertising is absurd. And seeing a girl like that without her makeup doesn't make recoil in horror. Like "OMG, I didn't know you were grotesque!" because her eye lashes aren't as full and there are faint shadows under her eyes. Give me a break. Some guys are so naive and shallow. Do they think celebrities and models wake up looking fresh and gorgeous?

On top of that, if I like her as a person, I'm not concerned about minor, natural imperfections. I'll love her when she wakes up in the morning no matter what. But, again, when she goes to the trouble of looking her best for me and being pretty, I adore her femininity.

[hahahmm]

Because we can.

1. It's not for you to tell men who is ugly and who isn't. A man can tell that in 0.1 seconds without even consciously trying to. Just a glance and he knows. We have a right to our opinions on that.

2. Given #1, you can't say that it's okay for a woman to have tons of makeup because "she isn't butt ugly", right? You don't know. And we wouldn't know till we see her without makeup.

3. I made a mytake about clown makeup on women long ago. There's women who look like shrek without makeup & like an angel with it.

4. Forgetting about the above, if we reduce life just to looks, I can assure you that the guy who happily bangs any attractive woman isn't the same kind of guy who wants to take her seriously or stick around after. The kind of guy who might do that absolutely DOES care what she looks like without makeup. Guys aren't stupid enough to think you're going to wear makeup, 10 spanx and fake teeth (ha) 24/7.

I avoided this whole issue by making sure to NEVER take a woman seriously if she had tons of makeup on. When I found my wife she was a solid 8-9 in my book WITHOUT even trying at all. Plus great character & personality. When she woke up in the morning she looked the same as she did the night before.

I only wear a little makeup lipstick eyeshadow and foundation IAM not someone that likes to much makeup to much is sometimes not a good choice because I like to be myself and not hide behind to much makeup that's why I wear light foundation and little lipstick and eyeshadow plus I only wear it out on special occasions not simple ones and if the guy doesn't like who iam without it it's his choice but I like being who iam me and that's it going overboard with makeup can make peoope look silly or but its there choice but i just like light makeup because i have sensitive skin abd it gibes me spots if i wear to much wich is why i only wear it out on special accasions makeup is not a big deal i like being me if anyone i meet has something bad about it bring it on am not a hider i just like being me

[hahahmm]

@Chevy1_kb The line not to cross is making yourself look like a different person. And what guys call "no makeup" is actually light/minimum makeup from a woman's POV. For example my wife has a naturally nice red lip color, yet she puts on lipstick. In her mind the lipstick is doing something but from a guy's POV it's meaningless.

[Chevy1_kb]

Well I don't feel different am me am not a big fan of makeup I only do it on special occasions nothing wrong with it sometimes it's good to have some on anyway I mite sound big headed but I don't need makeup to be beautiful IAM naturally

[hahahmm]

@Chevy1_kb Guys don't care if you have minimal/"some" makeup. We care if it makes you look like a different person. But we are the ones to judge that. We don't trust women to judge it for us.

[Asker]

You’re a fag. Clearly you don’t trust or like women and want dick instead. You aren’t the end all be all judge of what’s natural and what’s not and what is or isn’t to much makeup. That’s an impossible stand that individual to each man.

[Asker]

standard*

[hahahmm]

@asker Hilarious insult.. sounds like something a grade school kid would say. And yes, men do get to decide what we like. You'll figure it out when a guy decides he's not into you and there's not a thing you can do about it.

[Asker]

Grade school insult, you hate women you’re a fag. Not even an insult it’s a basic fact. Men who don’t like women are gay. Men who over criticize women don’t like women. Never had an issue pulling a man I want, keep wishing buddy.

[wolfcat87]

Men complain when it's false advertising to get sex or into a relationship, and I agree. I don't think most people would want a partner wearing a mask who looks like a complete stranger underneath...

Now, if she shows her natural face earlier and works her way up to more makeup, then no harm was committed against anyone. It's all in good fun.

I agree with those things. It's also irritating when women in media set unrealistic standards with all the makeup, filters, lighting tricks, etc. Again, makeup is totally fun. Just with a dose of reality.

[girlinthemirror]

I didn't wear any makeup, except spf 50 when its sunny, and my skinis shine within. I can’t explain it, but i feel that my skin is literally breath! I can use some eyeshadow, lip balm and thats all, but to everyday life i dont wear make up at all! And glad to see how my skin is reacting!
same with hair, i dyed my hair for many years and now i let my own color grow! The hair is become so shiny, in the past i can only achieve that right after i dyed it for several days, and then i sow how damaged my hair bcoz of i dye it so often

Imagine purchasing a car that looks nice aesthetically. Nice paint job, nice rims, nice wheels. Then you find out the motor has issues, the stereo doesn’t work, the electric windows don’t always work, etc. You’d be disappointed. A man’s beard is not the same as makeup, it’s a natural thing if he chooses to grow a beard. I don mind makeup if she’s already pretty as it is. I like a little to enhance things, to make them stand out like her eyes or her cheeks. I don’t like a girl who puts on a ton of makeup, starting w a foundation. A lot of women tend to use it to cover up blemishes, which ok I may be ok w that if it’s a little scar or something. But some of these women who look like they’ve been hit by a bus deceive men into think they’re really gorgeous when in reality they’re not. False advertising.

[girlinthemirror]

U llbe surprised, but many females actually dress and wear make up just FOR THEMSELVES… not to impress some cat callers on the street, definitely

[tzdc21]

This

[HawkPerception]

Makeup is a lie. Even men can look like women if they put enough makeup on. Contouring videos are scary.

I have never liked makeup on women other than a little eyeliner to emphasize and make their eyes more captivating. Beautiful women don't need makeup. Though I have to admit that the less attractive you are, the more it benefits you.

Men would prefer if makeup was removed from the world. All the girls that say "The man should pay on a date, because I had to pay for my makeup." need to be kicked to the curb. We do not care about your makeup and we would prefer if you never came with it on.

[Aakash_Hangargi]

Yes blame it on men lol who told women todo makeup and are you doing it for the men to provide the approval.

News flash women judge harshly other women on the way you look walk carry yourself.

If you whip out the boobies i don't think they would see the face for short term relationship.

Offcourse people get attracted by sharp features and even if they do there is no certainty or chance can one prove they won't be cheated on with less pritier women.

You have to know why you put those things I have never heard a man to say you look pretty in those fake lashes fake nails hair extensions plastic face and lips.

It has been fantasy of women to compete with dolls and to be called dolls.

[sawno]

Its basically false advertising to them, I also prefer a girl without makeup or if she insists with very natural makeup. The girls I have been attracted to consistently looked beautiful without makeup, I'd also tell them they really didn't need to put it on for me but they enjoy wearing it so I was fine with that to.

[sawno]

And yes asker, I can tell if she's wearing makeup. Its not that hard to spot foundation.

[Kokoroho]

I rather see her without make up. Cause now she's spending money on trying look good every time we see each other or for some other occasion. Which rent and a vacation spot could resolved sooner if she just set aside the fact she needs make up. There's a lot of girls I seen who look better with make up. Bit when they take it off I feel more attracted to them for there natural beauty.

[tzdc21]

Men get made fun of for how they look all the time. Except we don't get a cop out aka makeup every once in a while. Women know men fall in love with what they see, that's why they wear makeup. But it's really a form of deception. Honestly we'd rather see you WITHOUT the makeup from the get go to gauge your level of beauty. But it is deceptive to a man when he sees a woman with make up, she removes it and looks absolutely different. It is what it is.

[Asker]

If you liked her why would you care? For a man a beard and money is an easy cop out, no one’s complains about that. If men could do makeup and have it be socially acceptable to be more attractive they would. The fact is most women wear makeup and the internet and corrupted people’s perception of beauty at this point without it men would find a majority of women to be ugly because they don’t align with their porn star fantasies in that case no one wins.

Same way men want to be accepted for the way they look why drag women down too opposed to treating them with respect for wanting to look pretty and liking them for them the same way you would like to be liked for you.

[tzdc21]

First off, money is not an "easy" cop out for men. It takes a lot of time, effort, and perseverance to earn that whereas you can easily walk into any store you want and buy some makeup like it's nothing. Even the money isn't a guarantee for a cop out. And not all women are attracted to beards so that's not so much of a cop out either.

Second, looks always attract the guy towards the girl, and while it isn't everything, it pays a big part in getting to know a girl. If she takes the makeup off and she becomes absolutely different in terms of attractiveness and I said IF she looks much different, I'm sorry but it's a no go. That's why I said we prefer to see you first WITHOUT the makeup, then we won't be deceived by this front. Because while we may get to know you before when you had the makeup on and you liked her beforehand, once you take it off, and you look completely different that's a gut-wrenching feeling. It feels like you're being scammed, which in a way you were.

Looks are not a man's main asset in the dating market, that's YOUR biggest impact in the dating market, not ours. Does it have an impact? Yes. But NOWHERE near the level of impact that it has for you ladies. That's just how it goes. You are judged by different factors in life than we are, and you are held to different standards in life than we are. That's just reality. Is it right? Probably not. In a perfect world this wouldn't even be much of a big deal. But this isn't a perfect world now is it?

[Asker]

If you like a woman’s personality and you find her attractive with makeup you should still find her attractive without it. If you really like her if you don’t then no problem you didn’t like her that much. Like you said women are judged by attractiveness they’re going to be judged by attractiveness they’re going to maximize that in anyway they can.

Society and men themselves have created a society where beauty is imperative and makeup is the cost. If you feel scammed too bad man🤷‍♀️

[tzdc21]

Well if you don't like guys judging you for putting makeup, which is one of the most common forms of deception out there, and taking it off and looking different, then that's too bad for you too.

[tzdc21]

Like I said, this isn't a perfect world.

[Chevy1_kb]

Well I wanna maksure I like my makeup to and I'm just giving my opinion and I rather be myself that's why I don't wear to much just little foundation lipstick eyeshadow that is if it what I like then I wear it if he likes it that's upto him to say if he does or doesn't but the main point to me is if I like it awl wear it it's upto me what I wear

[JHAYES317]

I don’t mind some concealer or whatever, but if it’s heavy makeup which completely changes how she looks, that’s a turn off for me. And why? Because it’s deceptive…men want to be attracted to their women, and I’m sorry but if a woman can get praised for wanting a tall guy or a guy with a big dick, then I can not like a woman who was hiding a triple chin with face tape

[LiamJHayden]

I think most care about transformers, not minor touch ups.

[Anonymous]

It's essentially false advertising.

But regardless, if a woman looks that different when she wears makeup, she's wearing waaaaaay too much makeup.

What you need to understand is that men like authenticity, and they despise fakeness. There is way too much fakeness among women today... false lashes, highly scupltes or even tattooed eyebrows, dies hair, fake nails, fake boobs, heavy makeup, gaudy lipstick. Men have just grown weary of all the fakeness.

[aceleon]

think like this

youare offered a super luxry food you love and when you were just enjoying it turns to a cup noodle or something at best (and possibly even worse)

[Asker]

If you find a woman attractive with makeup, she dolls herself up everyday and you like her personality why feel betrayed because she looks normal without it. I’m not saying butt ugly but I’m saying most men don’t know what an average bare faced woman looks like. If she’s simply average and human looking why is it such a big deal. Most likely she’s not but so ugly you are simply just not used to either a bare faced woman or her bare face specifically.

[aceleon]

you are making a common mistake and thinking man and woman are same when in reality we are opposite creatures in everysense.
you think her dolling up as her trying to make you happy and asume we like you personaly before sexually
when in reality all we see in your efforts of looking good is decievement and we like you sexually and after that personally
and this has a biological reason to it.
we want someones to breed and spread our genes as much as possiblewith and healthy offspring instinctively, healthy looks equals to attractiveness.
for woman they first want security you instinctivly want someone who is strong and capable and later healthiness so you first like personally and after sexually, he is capable so it is the one i should breed with, while for guys, a female and looks healthy and breedable let's breed.
anyone can try to tell you otherwise and says not everyone is like that and i will tell you exceptions doesn't make facts.

[Asker]

as soon as I got to breed and spread seed I stopped reading. Go outside and notice how no one else acts or thinks like this…

[aceleon]

which is why you didn't see the part where i said ''exceptions doesn't make facts'' and they are instinctive things, you don't have to actively think them also if you can't even read something i have nothing to talk with you, i don't have time for someone who is too lazy to read.
you don't have to actually have kids to be breeding what do you think sex and relationships is about?

[Inbox]

@aceleon She’s probably an American 18 - 24 year old = allergic to facts.

[ScienceThumper]

@Asker as @Inbox brought up your age, so will I remind you an important fact: 18-24 is a very fertile age when hormones are soaring. Some people called it stages of maturity, but it really is biology, consistent with the hormones we are obsessed over finding a mate to make babies with.

Though you are correct, none of us men consciously think like that. Our bodies execute their programs like you too get periods whether you like it or not, whether you're conscious of them or not. Your pussy engorges when it senses testosterone whether you're even into men or not.

[ScienceThumper]

Just like we don't communicate with our testicles consciously "dear testicles, how about you make me some testosterone so my muscles get stronger? By the way don't forget to produce sperm..."

And still our testicles focus on reproduction, perform all the necessary chemical transformation to turn us into breeders.

Right?

We also don't tell our feelings "hey belly, why don't you turn on the butterflies whenever I lay my eyes upon a smiling bent-over fertile female in heat? Sure there are other girls who may be interested in a friendship but when there is an opportunity to impregnate a chick fit enough to be a mother we cannot afford to not get throbbing for her."

Similarly our bodies do it without conscious thought. And yeah like @EmyyWolf said yesterday only 2% of chicks have an ugly face, I don't know the exact percentage but she sounds right. She said the others may seem ugly because they're fat, losing fat they'll turn smoking hot. That's true, and what make-up does is make a fat face look almost the same as a non-fat face. Except many chicks overreach by emulating some tranny celebrities, that's a whole nother coom jar to fill so I'll just summarize it in agreement to what @aceleon said, the most attractive female appearance to meet a mate is the one that's clearly fertile. Too fat means impregnating you will be a poor investment, as is too skinny.

I've said it on old accounts all the time; HEALTH SHOULD BE OUR ONLY UNIVERSAL BEAUTY STANDARD. Take a look at the incidence of psychological illnesses from people simply lacking nutrients like vitamin D. You don't want a potential serial killer boyfriend.

Now remember a violent homeless drunk fuck - did he make you wet? CAN HE ever make you wet? No because your biology tells you that he isn't a worthy sperm donor.

[EmyyWolf]

@ScienceThumper
Damn I didn’t know you were this awake 😶

[aceleon]

@ScienceThumper what does vitamin D has anything to do with being a serial killer? i'm curious cuz appearantly i lack that along with B to an extent (changes happens)

[ScienceThumper]

Women don't need sunlight and should wear hijabs because they get their vitamin D--- in the bedroom.

There are many different B vitamins. Butts, boobies... I meant b1-b12 except no apparent b4,7,8,10,11.

Lack of vitamin D causes everything from insulin resistance to arterial stiffness. And mental disorders very rarely happen to those who have sufficient vitamin D levels. Some studies compared mental wellbeing related to people's vitamin D status. And before you say that plenty of sun worshippers are mentally I'll, just being close to the sun doesn't mean high vitamin D production, as about half of white Africans also have low vitamins D. You need to eat cholestrol to have substance to make vitamin Ď from.

I just choose to say serial killer because it's a mental illness nobody wants to do anything with.

[PeachyPie93]

That is why I never do full glam 24/7 so they actually know what I look like. It is kind of like lying to them if you wear lots of make up on the daily but look bland/ugly at home with them.

[Apple1996]

I don't get it either because they will want a natural faced woman to date/marry but then will go jerk off to insta models that are covered in makeup so they obviously like the makeup look

[RingOfFire]

🤣🤣🤣

[Anonymous]

What's comical here is like a typical female you fail to take accountability.

Statistically speaking men do not find women more attractive when they wear makeup.. On the flip side of that men find women who cake it on like the image above both unattractive and dishonest.

But hey believe as you wish akd keep blaming men for your idiotic standards.

[Miristheiss]

It depends on how much different they look. I mean if you cannot even tell it is the same human being we are getting into fraud, deception, catfishing territory.

[newboy78]

Why to hide behind makeup if you are not confident of your natural beauty

[SolitarySolace]

Probably because men want good genes just like women do and women caking themselves up with make-up causes men to be skeptical whether women actually have the type of genes he wants to reproduce with. Hence why men don’t trust women.

[patrick994]

Well, if I like a woman as a whole, even if I saw her without make-up and she looked slightly different, she would still be beautiful to me.

[DextroShade]

Because it's a lie. You ladies would be pissed at a guy if he lied about his income so we get to be pissed that you lie about your beauty.

[Monalisa77]

This is y i dont agree with make up, makes someone look fake and not their real selves!
