Why I like women who wear make-up

I came on this forum to explore political opinion in this country.

I had a failed attempt to establish a relationship this year.

I am not a handsome man. I'm a little Lincolnesque although I am clean shaven.

I thought I would read what other men write on internet dating services. Too many want women significantly younger than they are who are slim or in shape or athletic but who do not wear makeup.

I am 60. I do look a little younger. I am willing to date women up to 10 years younger or older but I focus on women between 58 and 62, largely because we went to college at the same time. We experienced VietNam. We heard the same music and read the same books.

However, I want a woman who wears make-up.

I'm an artist. I enjoy color and like seeing what a woman does with color.

A woman who wears make-up is often creative and imaginative.

More important, a woman who wears make-up exhibits a kind of pride.

I'm not talking about application with a trowel or something suited for the stage, but, I do like to see lipstick, which brightens the complexion (especially in women in the group I seek) and a little mascara (eyelashes fade as hair grays).

I hate rouge or blush as they call it today. I hate eyebrow pencil.

Is a man who is afraid of a woman with a little color on her face worried that she will look better than he does?

there was this beautiful girl that i was trying this time to take it slow with. she was a knock out so one day i decided to suprise her at her job, she worked with a travel agency her mom owned the company. i walked in and she had no make up on god she was ugly, looked like the witch that gave sleeping beauty the apple needless to say i never spoke to her again dang she was ugly.

Ugggh!!!!

I once dated an artist who said the same thing. Then he appraised me (I wasn't wearing any make-up that day 'cause I didn't feel like it) and said " oh you have good colour so you're alright"

Like I frickin' care!!

The problem I've had has always been with men bitchin' that I don't wear make-up enough or enough of it. That just peeves me off.

If you insist a woman must wear makeup, then find one of the many obsessed with wearing it, and don't try changing the rest of us.

You men, try going through the whole routine of make-up and hair and all every day. It's gets boring. It clogs your skin.

Argggg!!!!

I know this is becoming flooding,
but i want to know is Atkins wears makeup?

I look like a whore when I wear makeup. I like lipstick, but that's all I can do, and anymore I only wear it when I go out -- which isn't often.

the women here are fiesty. i like that.
