I am on opposite statement
you know between animals /birds there are sexual/gender dimorphism( i am not sure in english equivalence of dimorphism-it's mean male exemplar are more feathured,colourful,but female are monochrome)
see tribes in africa/america

the same condition

men wears eyering,penis rings,needles ,tattoos on face(maories)

the explanation that today we are cultural beings is not adequate in the epoch of postmodernism and post structuralistic society-art-literature-politic-metaphysic-science..
the nature is not oposite to culture,psyche,law

we said sexual appealing is surnatural

what this mean no-natural..muchnatural-unrational or non-cultural or ubercultural.

I am not sure that sur natural is only accidental,and used as accessoirs,not as essential..

So,we got an epochal split into the split NATURE/CULTURE,Law,history,fashion

fashion is what seeks for reconcilliation of this splited body of primordial androgine(see Plato's myth-Symposium,diothime),and reconcilliate the splited body of BEING-divided on soma and soul,psyche...Being when is the Nietzschean being is ubermensch,surhomme being dancing..being of decartes is cogitational,being of in-stance,statism of body,because (human)being is engaged to considarate,to rationalize

Dimorphism means that there two strands with highly divergent characteristics within one species, not that the male is adorned whereas the female plain. And moving away from semantics I don't see why you point this out because humans are not alike these species. A human male cannot be 'voluptous'. I don't see what post-modernism or post-structuralism have to do with this either. Nor do I see any link between postmodernism and meta-physics. Postmodernism and metaphysics put together would contain more aporia than you could shake a post-structuralist stick at. Furthermore, nature is often opposite to both culture and law. In England we have a culture which respects traditional Christian virtues. However, in many studies, it has been shown that humans will lie and cheat as long as they think they can get away with it. Not very Christian, huh? Beyond this point I can't really follow your argument - you use a lot of words that don't exist in English.

love it when men wear eyeliner!

well when they can pull it off!

 

[oceanharlot]

i think those boys lok H-O-T!

Don't overdo it though. I think using makeup to fix imperfections is fab, but when it gets to be a lot... it looks silly. (i think that goes for women too) You can still be masculine and wear mascara. God, my ex used to wear eyeliner and he looked so good...

I think it's totally O.K. for men to wear make-up. Well, for example, I think lip stick and green eye shadow look horrible on men, but I think it's totally O.K. for men to wear concealer and things to perfect the look and hide blemishes. I don't like it when it's very noticeable, but when it's subtle and well done, I think it's great. I myself use my mom's Estee Lauder concealer when I have a break out, why would I want to walk around all day wondering if people are staring at it?

My boyfriend sometimes wears eyeliner and i think it looks very hot indeed! The male models in those pics looked good, i didn't like the third one much though. But imo nothing wrong with men wearing make-up unless they go over the top, but thats the same for women aswell!

I really like the makeup at the Dior Homme show... The eyeliner is so dreamy.

Very interesting thread. I've never really thought about all this before.

 

[Neophyte]

I think it's great if a male will wear makeup. If you are one if those lucky type with a perfection complection, well, the more power to you! Too many times do I grimace in pain when I see some males faces. Sometimes I just want to run up to them with my tweezers and foundation!

I put some concealer on my husband for our wedding. It helped reduce the look of red shaving bumps that just happen.

I used Bare Escentuals, Bare Minerals products. They are so light and unnoticeable. I really reccomend that for men and women!! I am obsessed with it!

Come on, who didn't think Johnny Depp in Pirates of the Caribbean wasn't hot?
