I posted a question hours ago and I was met with two trolls who insisted I put on makeup and called me names for choosing not to shave. I understand it’s ok to have preferences for smooth skin and it’s a good thing there are men that are respectful of my decisions. It’s another thing entirely when people online want to control how you should do to your body. They all want to assert dominance over the victim which fortunately doesn’t work on me. I believe in doing whatever you want with your bodies and not give a damn what others think.

I have seen on social media about how women said if they choose to go without makeup and not shave, they’d be called ugly and not taking care of themselves. From my experience I chose not to wear makeup because I don’t like how it feels on my skin since I felt more comfortable with a bare face. When I go out with a bare face and no shaving, I didn’t get hit on by men which to me it’s to my advantage since getting hit on stresses me out big time. My best friend wears makeup whenever she wants to and I’m fine with it. All women and girls have the rights to do what they want when it comes to makeup and shaving. Are men put off by body hair, stretch marks, cellulite, acne marks, dark circles, mole, etc?

I don’t wear makeup and I don’t shave my underarms because I only have hair on my underarms and down there, the rest of my body is silky smooth. I know there are girls and women like me in real life and every one of them has a choice in what they want to do with their bodies. I was wearing a basic sleeveless dress and I was sitting alone at a bar and there was a young man around my age chatting me up. I was shocked because I’m sure he has noticed I don’t look good in any way especially my underarms being unshaven, my face having pimples and some acne scars on my face. I was panicking inside but pretend to show I’m not afraid of him. I answered his questions and we did have a chat. He then asked me if I’m single to which I replied. ‘I prefer to stay single because I’m a burden due to personal reasons. There are way better looking girls around here why pick me when you can pick them?’ He replied ‘You have the confidence to go out like this is the reason why, not everything is about looks you know.’ He left and I saw how he looked a little disappointed. I find being single is safer, easier and cheaper compared to getting married. Since marriage does comes with lots of stress especially when there are kids involved and honestly I couldn’t handle married life. It doesn’t matter if it’s marriage life with or without kids. I just know I couldn’t handle them. I’m a weak vulnerable person so I couldn’t afford to be in a relationship where it might be a toxic/abusive one.
