I am personally disgusted by nail polish, especially when it's what people would call "put together" or "clean". For this reason, it has always been surprising to me that so many women wear nail polish. It also seems like more women are wearing it than ever in the past.
I have a few theories:
1. Some women like the look (I've seen many women with an obsession with "toe beans" on animals, so nail polish kind of resembles them when your nails are highly contrasted with your hands);
2. It is used by women to present themselves as "clean" which can sometimes (but not necessarily always) be them overcompensating for otherwise being seen as dirty.
3. Many women are in competition with each other so the women that would otherwise not wear nail polish are now wearing it as a result of peer-pressure. Perhaps older women also pressure younger women too.
4. There are men who like it.
If you wear nail polish, why do you do it (feel free to elaborate in your answer)? And where on Earth are the women who refuse to wear nail polish?
1. In my question description, I am simply conveying information in a concise manner with the relevant details; if you find that offensive, then you are too soft.
2. Look at the responses to my question: people are telling me to "grow up" , calling me "pathetic" or simply laughing at my question rather than giving me an answer to my question. So who is the one starting the attack? Not me. Call that person out.

More women wear fake, plastic nails or get acrylics and gels and stuff than have their nails natural and painted. That's even worse looking to me, gluing plastic on your fingers and call them nails. They're plastic! lol I don't find nail polish disgusting like you do.
I also hate acrylics and other fake attachments, especially the sounds they make, but for different reasons to the nail polish disgust.
And what's your opinion on natural nails, their length, and the sounds that they make?
Natural nails (without paint) are fine because women are drawing no attention to them. I never thought of nails to be attractive, but they also don't need to disgust me. If it looks like the woman has chosen to grow them to look "feminine" that can be off-putting because a disproportionate amount of attention has gone into their nails, which I think is wasted effort - I always hear of women talking about the amount of effort they put into looking nice but they don't even look nice to me, yet they expect men to then give them more when they haven't even optimized for something of value to the men.
As for the sounds, I don't like it when women tap their acrylics on surfaces, it just makes me want to remove my eardrums. It's also as if they think that that is enough to arouse men as if men are some dogs starved of attention to the point where women can put in that little effort as their contribution. I also hate ASMR for those reasons - ridiculous in my opinion.
You're entitled to your likes and dislikes, though it sounds to me that you have some subjective issues about women, their appearance and their motives. The things you consider to be wasted efforts are all related to YOUR preferences, not theirs. Many women like their nails longer and some of them say they grow so quickly it's not an effort at all to grow them, but rather, to manage them.
Anyway, my point is you're probably going to spend your life looking for a totally submissive woman who will cater to your whims and preferences. I would wish you luck, but then I wouldn't wish this scenario on a woman. There's a lot of hate in your words.
I am very aware that these are MY preferences. Why on Earth would a woman that is getting into a relationship with a man not be trying to look good FOR THAT MAN? Is she attracted to herself? Why would that man join up with a woman that is not going to benefit himself overall? She's obviously ideally meant to be attractive to him and vice versa. It's like you think people are just meant to role play acting like they're getting along with life without any rational reason behind their actions.
If you want to call these issues "subjective" then how about you sit down and think as opposed to just listening to the group narrative. I am not interested in becoming a slave to a woman like you might be. A lot of weak men nowadays have caused women to gain power and they are abusing that power in many ways. Keep turning a blind eye if you want.
You say there is "hate" in my words as if you expect me to be happy with something I know I dislike. Do you not dislike anything? I believe you'd be describing that thing you dislike in such a way that would express your perception of that. I am doing the same. Otherwise the information I am trying to convey will not be conveyed. I have no interest in sugarcoating.
I said, you're entitled to your preferences. You're entitled to list the things you don't want in a woman as well. If, for some reason, a woman were to find there are enough other things about you to mold their hands, nails, feet, hair, overall dress or whatever else you require to your LIKING so they "look good for YOU (that man)", great. Good luck.
Oddly, you wouldn't consider that woman being a slave to YOUR likes, would you? No, you'd just say she loves you and is willing to please you, which should be her priority of course. As for my disliking things, sure. Who doesn't? But I rarely use the terms hate or disgust to describe them, nor do I think women abuse THEIR power any more than MEN do... hmm?
The power exchange battle is no different than it ever was, it's just louder, and you don't like the noise. You're threatened by it, and that's obvious. I certainly wouldn't let a woman's preference in her nail length be a TOTAL deal-breaker in a relationship if I loved everything else about her. You wouldn't even get that far, would you? It would be over as soon as you saw her "disgusting hands".
Ok... that's your privilege, and it works in her favor as well.
Hold on - slaves serve their master's needs and wants for very little in return. If a man marries a woman, he is typically expected to provide and potentially go to war and potentially die for that woman. What does she do in exchange? If I want sex, then I would like my wife to be sexually attractive to me. Where else is my list of demands so excessive that a woman will be suffering at my hand? If she wasn't even attractive to me (one of the FEW things I want) then I would be effectively enslaved - I would be better off without her. You have assumed that because I am complaining about nail polish (which seems small) then my list of demands must be large, but it's not.
You are using the word slave incorrectly - relationships are basically an exchange of things of value between two people, whether those exchanged things be actions or goods. In exchange for me providing for my partner, I want her to be attractive to me. No one needs to be a slave in this situation.
You mention the "hate" thing. If I hate things and I say I hate them, then my speech is truthful. If I hate things and I deceive you into thinking I don't then my speech is not truthful. Do you not hate things? If you say you don't hate it, then you are lying, and you therefore do not have the moral high ground. If you also fail to say when you hate something where the consequence require that you say it, then you are also at fault. I am not going to follow your rule of sugarcoating.
Nail length is not even that important to me, nail polish is. You're the one that brought acrylics into this. If my partner wanted to please me and I asked her to simply not wear nail polish, then she would remove it. If she refused that simple task then I have reason to believe she will refuse more important things in the future and I can therefore leave with a clear conscience if I deem it necessary. This does not mean I won't pursue women with nail polish, but I'm not going to let my resentment build up because the truth is that I dislike it to the point of disgust. You think you're in the right for pressing me to bottle up my disgust.
Get off your high horse and don't tell me if I do or don't "hate" things. Oh, ok... I hate ignorant people.
But the POINT is, you would not GET to that place because the minute you saw a girl with nail polish, you wouldn't approach her. I don't believe you would pursue a woman like that. It would be a deal breaker for you, but for argument's sake, let's say you would.
At what point do you say to her "If you want to please me, you will do this or that, or you won't do this or that"? It doesn't occur to you that a woman might say " This or that is important to me, and if you want to please ME, you won't make an issue of it".
You're steeped in patriarchy, dude. Aside from that, I don't need to feel right or wrong here. I don't care what you actually DO, I'm just saying "with your attitude towards women, good luck".
At what point did I say you hated things? I am not on any high horse. Now you have just told me you hate ignorant people. You are ignorant yourself, otherwise you would not have assumed that if I dislike nail polish then I must have a huge list of things to dislike.
Now you are the one telling me that I "would not GET to that place because the minute (I) saw a girl with nail polish, (I) wouldn't approach her". So you're telling me what I would and wouldn't do? You are a hypocrite. Get off your high horse. And in fact, because nail polish is so pervasive, I have indeed approached girls DESPITE their nail polish. In fact, they seem to put on makeup and nail polish specifically for my attention unfortunately for me. So your point is invalid because that is not what I would do simply because of nail polish.
Why do you think I asked my original question? I need to understand why women wear nail polish. I have given a reason for my distaste for it, and I am looking for a reason for them wanting to wear it. Then I can make a rational decision on whether or not I will request her to stop wearing it and whatever other necessary decisions I need to make.
Explain to me how my approach is problematic.
I love it when women wear nail polish, although some of their color choices in recent years may leave something to be desired. But, sure, why not?
I see.
Having said that, let me also say that I find blue and green polish utterly hideous, but we're in an era in which ugly is the new pretty, in my opinion. The more unappealing it is, the more demand it receives.
I definitely agree with what you've just said. I don't understand why this is happening though.
because it looks pretty & makes me feel good!!😊💅
#painted fingers 💅
#painted toes 💅
Do you also like that emoji? I don't know why you used it so much in a single message.

π€£ Yuck
Is there anything that does not trigger your tiny mind?
Attack the women that have a list of "icks" since you seem to think that me disliking nail polish is a criminal offence.
Lmao what a weird thing to be triggered about, but hey, you do you. Personally I don't paint my nails, but I certainly don't begrudge those who do. You have a preference. Fine. Just don't be a hater on those who choose to do it.
Do you ever criticize the women who claim to have an "ick" about seemingly stupid things?
You also say I begrudge them, and you're right. I need not begrudge them if not for the fact that I will also need to select a woman at some point and the vast majority seem to think wearing it is appealing to me, therefore this issue affects me and begrudging them is justified.
Sure, if it's a weird thing to be triggered over. I call things out equally.
Also, a woman needs to select you in return and do you want her to nitpick every little thing you do too? You are gonna be forever single in that case.
Obviously a woman also needs to select me and I have been selected multiple times. Why on Earth would I want her to nitpick every little thing I do? So I pointed out one thing that some women do and you are claiming that I am nitpicking every little thing? I am well within reason to dislike one or more things my partner does. I can simply ask her to stop painting her nails - if she refuses then I can leave. I am not scared of being single forever like so many women are.
Lol none of us are worried about being single forever, we know if we want to, we can find some guy who would want us. Guys are the ones worried about being alone because we have choices where as guys may have less. We choose to be single if we want to.
Nope, you are projecting. The ones scared of being single forever are mainly women. You can find "some" guy, but it is highly unlikely to be the guy you want.
Women are even getting desperate now asking "why don't guys want to date anymore?" as if these same women are too stupid to know that the despicable behavior of the loud majority of women in modern times has not caused men to have an extreme distaste for these women. Many guys simply want sex from women and these fat modern women are typically unattractive so getting sexual pleasure from them is impossible, therefore they would rather just watch pornography since those women were at least sensible enough to be sexually attractive.
Oof the incel smell coming off you is strong.
The 46 year old cat woman is calling me an incel.
Nice guess, but im married sooooo... try again, incel.
@ Asker, your words shows clearly that you aren't a real man, it shows how weak you are, attacking everyone who has a different opinion then yours, after provoking them already, you're just another small troll who has no life and no ambitions, just an incel who's seeking attention since no one cares about you nor gives you any importance!
This lady right here @Ez-Bri-Z_v2 , if you talk to her shoe, it will spit on you because that's how much cheap you are, plus this 46 year old woman looks a lot younger and beautiful more then you will ever be!
Plus a worthless midget like you will never a effect a giant woman like her with amazing traits than you will never find in your whole prethedic life!
A hero like you behind the screen is just another cockroach in real life, plus you're reported!
@ez-bri-z_v2 good for you. I wouldn't be surprised if your husband is not even attracted to you.
@TonyMetal___1986 You are a simp. You claim I attack everyone with a different opinion than me but don't say anything when a large portion women constantly try to censor men or anyone who speaks the truth that goes against their desired outcome. Why don't you speak up against them? Oh! It's because you are desperate for sex. Weak man over here is trying to censor me like a woman. @ez-bri-z_v2 please collect your weak man here, he wants to worship you.
If you don't know who i am and what i have done on this site since you were a toddler sipping milk from your mother then you're not worth of my time π
So you told me that i'm eager for sex and i don't attack nor stand up against women, i'll let your mistresses tell you about me or any other women who is on this site, you made me laugh boy π€£π€£
@TonyMetal___1986 you are clearly one of the romantic types. I expect this simpy behavior from you.
Wow, he uses all the key phrases of an incel too. It's getting worse and worse
@TonyMetal__1986 dont worry too much about this guy. He knows he will be alone in the end. He's way too picky and expects women to cave to his desires before he will "pick" them.
@Ez-Bri-Z_v2 π―ππ»
Look at these unhappy middle-aged people telling me I will be alone like it's a death sentence. Again, you are projecting.
"Key phrases" like I memorise and regurgitate. That is what you do. Stop projecting please.
Projecting? Hard to project that "you'll be alone" when I already have someone. I am plenty happy. I just call out foolishness from incels when I see it.
Please stop projecting. Being alone is not a death sentence for me. It would be a death sentence for you which is why you think it's an effective insult. This is projecting.
Lol I never said it was a death sentence. Stop being so overdramatic. I said you are going to be forever single being so picky over something as simple as nail polish. That would be like you being rejected just for the stupid haircut you are probably rocking right now.
If a very simple trivial thing like this triggers something so pathetic, you need to seriously Grow Up and seek some therapy.
"Therapy", "Working on myself", "Blah" "Blah".
How many women have you seen with an infinite list of "icks"? Yet I pointed out one thing and your head looks like it's about to pop. It seems like YOU are the one that needs help. I'd recommend you stay away from therapy though, they'll just echo back to you what you want to hear and you'll end up growing old and remaining a nuisance to people around you.
This woman is highly educated and has an amazing family and what she has achieved in her life is a lot more then what your pea sized brain can handle, so when you talk about her, make sure to flush your mouth first!
@TonyMetal___1986 π Tony, please relax. This woman will not give you sex! Are you that desperate?
When i want sex, i know where to find it unlike you who won't get it even if you pay a fortune π
Plus what kind of a fool with zero I. Q you are? How am i going to have sex with any of these women, when the nearest one is living on the other side of the planet, that's how a typical weak loser behaves, you found nothing to say about me, so you have started to make up things on me just so that the others can see that you did something while you're just making others laugh at you haha
@TonyMetal___1986 Ah, so you are aware that you won't get sex. Then that means you must be trying to put on a show for the woman you may get sex from since you're being monitored by them to see if you're a feminist. I'd hate to be in your situation.
Yeah i'm a feminist ππ€£ππ€£ππ€£ the most hilarious thing i have heard from ages hahaha
@TonyMetal___1986 Then why are you so weak? Is that what you think being a Christian is about?
Nope, attacking and insulting others because of stupid things like that is non christian and shows how weak you are!
If you want to become a real man, watch me and learn, you can always search for the name "TonyMetal", my previous accounts are all still here, read about my history than come and make assumptions about me, i'm the current oldest member on this site, i have been here for more than 16 years, since 2009-2010, your heros such as "Krakenattackin" and other fierce old members who fought feminism with pride, knowing no surrender, are in fact my students!
Capish son ππ
@TonyMetal___1986 No, you are the one who began by insulting me by calling me a midget (which is false). You believe being on this site for a long time gives you some kind of status in my eyes. It means nothing whatsoever.
Address the fact that women have a seemingly infinite list of "icks".
Explain to me at what point my
You were insulted by me and treated like that for the simple fact which says "treat the way you want to be treated", that's my golden rule!
@TonyMetal___1986 Address the fact that women have a seemingly infinite list of "icks".
@tonymetal___1986 You insulted me first so you are both incorrect and a hypocrite. If you're not a feminist then you are a white knight. You assumed this woman is intelligent and that my brain was pea-sized. And you are displaying "Christian" in your bio as if you have some moral high ground.
This can keep going on and on for hours, i have no time and what matters is that i made myself clear!
@TonyMetal___1986 Yes, it is very clear that you talk nonsense and you are a hypocrite. Thank you very much and have a good day.
I have never seen someone so triggered over something so trivial. Nail polish? Really?
The triviality of this topic is subjective. How many times do women talk about getting the "ick"? These things are typically considered trivial to men, yet so many women complain about it so much. Perhaps you can view this as my "ick" for women.
Iβve been doing my nails 💅 since I was a little girl. I donβt see a problem with it
I thought you people were more into Henna/Mehndi tattoos...
@DryGermanGuy if you're pointing that she's indian, she isn't!
Indian, Pakistani, Bangladeshi... same same, but different!
@DryGermanGuy she's American
Ask "her" for a picture, holding a current American newspaper.
@DryGermanGuy won't ask her for anything, because she doesn't need to prove herself for anyone, you have the freedom to believe her claims or not, anyone around here can lie, it's up to each individual if they believe the other or not but others doesn't have to do anything to make us believe...
Suit yourself. Personally, I hate catfishes and we all should name and shame them.
@DryGermanGuy you're right, only if you can prove that she's one!
We already did. Her life stories are incoherent bullshit.
@Agape93
@DryGermanGuy the woman whom you have mentioned, you know about us right? π
Anyway, she we have blocked eachother from ages, if you're going to tell her about me, she might kill you already π€£π€£
😂😂😂😂😂😂
Really ? , Nail Polish?
You must be one of the toe-suckers. You enjoy being a footstool for women.
Yeah? , what does toe sucking have to do with anything? To be angry at women wearing nail polish πππ
So you are one of them π How does it feel looking up to women? Weak man.
Hahahah , what are you talking about ππ
it has been like this for decades.
