I am a student (in a rented place) and since I found out my roomate is a heroin junkie (he seemed very strange and i found a needle near trash/ and pls, I do not go through the garbage, but something was telling that i have to take that bag out of garbage. I did / and there it was/ a used needle. Then I asked him if that's his, he sai it is, and i told him he has to go... And he went (without paying bills!) / story about him...
So, we (me and friend) are looking for new roomate. Then this cute, cute, cute boy comes along and we had a tea and he seemed nice and we almost agreed he takes the room, when we got so 'friendly', he asked me if i could lend him my mascara!!! I was confused and i said sure! What else could I do. And he went to the bathroom and applied my makeup on. This act made him the last candidate for a room (besides junkies of course).
What do u think? Should men wear makeup????

Well, blokes are taking more care with their appearance than ever/ and yes, this includes applying makeup too.
Btw/ not all- i lived with a homosexual for 2 years *the greatest guy in the world/ tought me lots about cooking Wink

and btw- he is one of the most sexiest guys i've ever met. When we went out, all the girls were staring at him... And yes, he WASN”T using makeup/ he had the best perfumes and always smelled great and he was always clean and tidy (he spent more time in bathroom than me), but he never used makeup. At least not, while he was living with me.

if man wants to use makeup, than he should. This is not medieval times! But the fact is that I am not attracted to feminised men and that male using makeup would most definitely turn me down.

Makeup probably plays a part in this game, but i think clothing matters most and has the greatest influence on appearance. You could “change” your age and get older with more classic look, but i think that would look hilarious on 14/year old.
For a start / avoid clothes that are latest hit or that are too trendy. Better go along with classic cuts. Avoid clothes that are too tight or too baggy. There is no such clothes in classics as baggy or tight.

I think it is just fine if men use makeup. If that can improve their self esteem than that is it!
Some do not feel most confident and if stuff like makeup helps- we have a solution!

I know a guy who wears makeup. He is a stylist and he definitely looks feminine as someone else here connected feminism with makeup. Truly, man looks totally gay, but has a wife and children, and is not a guy.
However, using makeup perhaps made him more recognizable in his business, especially in our medieval middle.
He has my full support!

A man is a man and a lady is a lady. So, yes, I definitely do not agree with men wearing make-up.
I am not being conservative its just I can't imagine my bf putting makeup on every morning....
