    Since men typically don’t understand what light coverage means, it makes me feel like I’m damned if I do and damned if I don’t. If I do the thing they say they want, it’s not actually what they want, and if I do the thing I think they actually want, is it really what they want? Because it’s not what they’re saying.

    I’ve also heard this manosphere opinion that women hide behind makeup, and so they say they prefer no makeup because they want to be sure whether the woman is actually beautiful and not “deceiving them.”

    So I’m happy I’m engaged to a woman.

    My best guy friend says he prefers no makeup, but I respect his opinion on the matter, because it’s an informed opinion and the people he’s dated have genuinely preferred not wearing makeup. That doesn’t seem to be the majority of guys saying that.

      Most men I know don’t really care one way or the other. Their opinion starts when the make-up gets too much, and that line is different for most.

      Most I hear about men not liking make up, is mostly from my girl friends lol.
