Another redundant app

MemesProbably just data mining
I expect sexism in the comments and I'm still disappointed every time. Yikes. Do better Lemmy.
Right? Holy shit. I am surprised and a bit perturbed by how many people are on board with sexism in this thread
Whats with the weird spacing of the reply?
Modern make up sucks. Used to, women put on lots of make up to look all glamorous and sexy. Now they put on lots of make up to look like a Quake map.
Quake maps are sexy
Right is much better.

I think makeup is cool, the standard of having to wear makeup is bullshit. When my girlfriend doesn't wear makeup people ask if she's sick. It seems like a lot of work.
e: this app is weird af though
This is one of the biggest reasons I never got into makeup. I remember being a teen and hearing people ask women, "Are you okay?" when they didn't do their full makeup routine. I thought, "Man, it's got to hurt to feel like having a natural face means something's wrong with you. I'd rather go into the world how I am and have that be accepted as normal."
Natural is also attractive
"man develops app to discover women are cute without makeup, more at 11"
Any man that whines about women wearing makeup in any way is just signaling to everyone he's a waste of their time.
You seriously need to calm down.
You seriously need to stop following me. Imagine having the gall to tell a woman to calm down while talking about men being shitty about women seeing makeup. Fuck all the way off.
Edit: meh. Blocked
The gall? The gall to expect others to never have an opinion you don't agree with and if they do? BLOCK THEM! Like a child putting their finger in their ears. I look forward to the inevitable block. It will let us converse about you in peace, without you knowing about it. Kind of like that Tea app.
Homie going to bat for every piece of shit dude he never met in existence right now
And every good dude caught in the crossfire, and anyone else harmed by such a vicious and cruel worldview.
It was December, 2038. The girl soul crushing worldview of boys bad has caused unspeakable horrors. Two months ago they attacked the boy-grain, or boain for short. Without those food supplies our boy population will not be able to sustain itself. It is a grim time ahead for boys. If only the girls were not so cruel.
Bye Felicia!
Edit: Nice edit that’s not in your edit. For the record I’m not following you, this is a public forum. I don’t even know what the fuck you’re talking about.
And I have zero shits to give what gender you are.
God forbid men have a preference women don't approve...
Having a preference and whining are not the same thing.
Things that are fine to say in relevant social contexts:
- You look really cute without makeup.
- I prefer lighter makeup.
- I love heavy makeup looks.
- I have sensory issues and can't stand the smell of makeup at all.
Things that are creepy to say in any context:
- Women use makeup as a lie to trick men.
- I want a traditional woman who doesn't paint her face like a clown.
- I don't know how she expects to attract a man when she's not even putting in any effort to do basic makeup.
- I bet she's really ugly without all that makeup.
See this sounds like whining to me. How does one tell the difference?
Personally I find all make be it on a woman or man. To be the single ugliest thing a person can do to them self. Its vile and revolting. It looks highly unnatural, and actively causes me stress some times and I have no idea why. It triggers my flight or fight response when someone has too much on and I can't accurately make out their features.
Perfume and Cologne is the same way. In my 30 years of life iv never found a single perfume or cologne be it on a man or woman. That did not actively make me gag and make my eyes water. I can frequently taste it on the air long long after many people can't. Which I assume is part of the problem. I'm just hyper sensitive to almost all fragrances.
90% of laundry detergent, soaps, and basically anything with a scent does exactly the same thing to me.
Iv been yelled at for involuntarily gaging when women walk by me because I can so strongly taste their perfume.
If I could I would out right ban all make up and scents. They are terrible things and from the outside looking in. They seem to do nothing but perpetuate a endless cycle of social abuse. People get judged for using them. For not using them. For using too much, or not enough.
So far as I can tell there's not a single good thing socially that has come from the invention of non medical cosmetics.
This is valid:
It triggers my flight or fight response when someone has too much on and I can't accurately make out their features.
This is needlessly insulting:
the single ugliest thing a person can do to them self. Its vile and revolting.
Not all men, but definitely you
That's the kind of prejudiced reasoning that makes the mess to begin with.
It's not prejudiced to judge someone for their actual actions
And what have you concluded about me from these alleged actions?
Sharing your opinions of how others chose to dress or act is weird unless you are doing it to influence others. Trying to influence people by belittling them is rude.
You could be saying it about how someone dresses, or dances, or what bike they chose to ride.
It is unfortunate that men belittling women about their makeup is so pervasive in our culture that after at least three generations of people highlighting how hurtful it is, people still think their right to state their opinion of random people is more important than people's right to go through their day without being accosted.
Just to point out, women also belittle other women for their make up choices. And even do so more frequently than men. By a lot.
Its one of the single most common results any time research looks into the topic. Women almost exclusively attack other women for their looks at rates higher than men in every culture iv ever seen research on the topic in.
This is generally true of any hobby or activity that's gendered preferenced. Same sex hate in hobbies, appearance and other facteds of life is always an order of magnitude more common than cross sex hate.
So while you not wrong that it's a problem when men do it. Its a problem when anyone does it full stop. But your also being a raging fucking ignorant misandrist right now on top of it.
Stop it. If your going to bitch about the endless soical problems humanity has. At least do so with out also being part of the problem please.
How common is it that random people just tell women on face these things? Asking out of genuine curiosity
It’s usually not complete strangers, but friends and partners: “you look better with less makeup”, “why are you wearing that?”, “see you look good without makeup!”, “are you OK, you look sick?”, “what’s wrong, are you sad?”
Well that's definitely a take. People can't have experiences of others and share them.
God forbid a woman doesn't want to hang out with you.
(repeat for all women until no woman wants to hang out with you)
Are you implying I suggested otherwise? I support a woman's right to choose, as I do a man's.
I'm sorry, that sounds awfully close to whining about women wearing makeup.
I wine when anyone wears it men or women. Make up just sucks and freaks me out on a fundamental level. Shit scares the actual fuck out of me.
God forbid someone have an opinion on makeup that isn't positive! Stone them!
“I prefer it when you don’t shave your legs”. So? Keep it to yourself weirdo, I’m not doing it for you.
Nobody is talking to you, though, or any specific woman, just women in general. That you equate 'I prefer women who shave their legs." with "Shave your legs, atomicrange!" shows some kind of thought pattern, for sure. Or maybe less thought and more feelings.
People do talk to individual specific women this way. That’s what we’re talking about.
It’s not that you’re misunderstanding or being uncharitable or there’s a miscommunication, it’s because I’m not thinking, I’m just a dumb woman only feelings no thoughts head empty. Thanks for the valuable discussion, love trying to give a perspective and being met with condescension.
That may be what you have reduced the discussion to, a personal experience, but the op comment spoke generally, not specifically, as did I. So we are not talking about the same thing. At what point did you start thinking specifically, and not generally?
If your beleifs don't come from a well reasoned argument, from where else but feelings would your thoughts arise?
To a random person that makes sense ... But like this is something partners typically express.
Have you just never been in a healthy relationship where you can talk to your SO about their appearance and your preferences honestly?
Being sexy for your partner requires you to actually understand their prefences and fetishes. So you can make appeals to them.
There's nothing wrong and if anything it's highly unhealthy for the relationship to be scared to express your physical preferences. Its even worse if you are unable to accept the information openly.
It sounds like you might just either have had horridly unhealthy experiences with men. Or are possibly just a narcissist. Depending on the context your speaking about.
Seriously, a healthy relationship is foundationally built on understanding and part of that is knowing your partners perfences. It goes both ways.
A salient and compassionate perspective.
You got me being a narcissist from just that?
You wouldn’t find that comment really weird from anyone you’re not sexually involved with? Yeah obviously it’s different when it’s a partner, but that’s not what we’re talking about. Unsolicited advice on how I groom myself is creepy to me. I think you’d find it creepy too, which is why I tried to give a more relatable example. Evidently that makes me a narcissist, jesus. Can’t talk about anything.
Found the manchild who cannot get it up. Sad.
Oh, attack the assumed sexual capabilities of your target, very original.
Makeup is art, and the face is a canvas. The only time when it isn't okay is when it becomes an expectation rather than something done freely.
Drop the "usually"
Very much still a boy if you don't know this
Some guys sadly never reach the requisite level of maturity to graduate to manhood.
What? Men should know makeup alters your appearance, but how is one supposed to divine how much? Some people are naturally attractive or use less than others. Some people can look drastically different with clever techniques. Some use a ton, that's not apparent in photos.
Yeah lol I’d say most men have seen at least a couple women without makeup. Like if nothing else moms/aunts/sisters/cousins, if not friends/intimate partners (if they’re attracted to/date women on the latter point)
......................and some women look better without than others. Do we all understand skin quality is variable?
skin_quality = os.environ["genetic"] - random.randint(100)
Ah yes, the 'no true man' social exclusion strategy, favoured by bitter women everywhere.
Hello, I'm an actual man
The only ones excluding guys that can't treat women as people are the guys themselves. These really are pretty basic concepts
Who apparently shares much in common with bitter women. It also seems that somehow, trying to deny people their gender identity is totally treating them as people...
Dude, this is a discussion about how ignorant guys should not be shocked by what women actually look like.
And how it's kinda a baseline piece of becoming a mature, well rounded person
bitter women
Are you intentionally telling on yourself, or..?
Seems like it was a conversation about attacking men who don't do what you want by calling them children. But hey, maybe I misunderstood the first post.
You certainly did
I don't give a shit what they do
That's completely orthogonal to whether they have mentally matured past the age of 8
So you hate the mentally disabled?
and actual men everywhere too.
usually know what?
edit: ... the headline has removed 'without makeup'
very funny
Now do this for guys and their penis size based on what they drive, wear, hairstyle, and what cologne they wear
You know what they say about guys with penises right
They drink water, right?
That's stored in the balls, though
Which is where they drink it from. Through the penis.
Life straw
I thought that was pee 🤔
They're the same picture.
They wear shoes..?
Whack it?
I have a Kangoo from 2014 (zero options), how big is my penis?
You think I’m doing penis ratings for free, mate? Download the app
Only small penis downloads penis apps.
Hell yeah, brother, see you on the app
What the hell, only 2 inches?!
But on the bright side I just got a new car.
If you get 10 bros to sign up on the app and they upload verification dick pics, we will send you a free pair of truck nuts and a gator mask that is signed by RFK and whoever is in charge of ICE on the day the items are shipped out
Gargantuan. Of sheer immeasurable proportions.
Yeah but how accurate is it?
I'd imagine not very, also it's kind of gross in a hard to quantify way, at lest hard for me.
Gross in the this makes me insecure because I use makeup to hide my imperfections and compete socially kind of way?
And that's bad because...? Surely you don't blame the individual for this?
I didn't say it was bad. Not did I cast blame. Two giant leaps there.
Gross as in, you're changing the face that someone is presenting to the world, because you think you know better than they do how they should present themselves.
Who is better suited to know how someone can better present themselves than those having the experience of being presented to?
Maybe that doesn't help you at work, or competing with the other girls, or manipulating people, or avoiding being gossiped about, or managing your self-hatred over how you naturally look.
But it still might be true for the person changing the presentation to better appeal to their preferences.
