Men and eye make up.

I wear 15 to 20 denier nylons and tights and not worn stockings for decades. Loved thise saucy suspenders back then ;)
 

I can't work up a lot of outrage about what other people are wearing.

Guy wants to wear eyeliner? No prob.

Guy wants to carry a purse (murse?). OK with me but I might get jealous if it's nicer than mine.

Guy wants to wear high heels? Hey, if he wants to twist an ankle, what's it to me?

Every generation is "going to hell in a handbasket" according to the generation before them. But, somehow we just keep muddling along. The world is not going to come to an end because men are smearing makeup around their eyes or women are shaving their heads or some people are deciding they were born the wrong sex. If it does come to an end, it'll be for a bigger reason than that.

Let's just celebrate (or at least accept) that the world is diverse.

Jason Momoa in eye makeup? Oh, hell yes! He can come over and borrow mine any day he wants! (As soon as I run out and buy some...…)

Every time I see that man I say "Lawd, have mercy! But not only is he gorgeous, he's truly a nice guy. I love how much he loves his wife too. And he does kind, charitable things for people.

The fella that I mentioned earlier has tattooed/permanent eyeliner so it was one decision out of many that he made in his life, who knows how he feels about it today.

IMO these things are mostly an attitude adjustment for the rest of us. Eye makeup was fairly common among the wealthy ancient Egyptians and is still fairly common in the NFL today.

There are those that aren't into diversity, and we aren't. In fact, the city we live in isn't that diverse at all. We like that. There are those that live where we use to, Jacksonville, Florida, that wouldn't give it a thought about moving here due to the demographics and very little diversity.

Wife and I like "normal looking", not "weird" looking. But, that is us. I seriously doubt if any of us would see a man, wearing makeup, driving a John Deere tractor and doing field work on a farm or a ranch cowboy working cattle on a horse, wearing makeup. It's no wonder that farm and ranch folks don't go into big cities that much or at all.

My brother worked closely with him on SEE. He was kind enough to get in touch to try to talk him into returning, but my brother has decided to go another direction in the business. Jason is supposedly a very nice person. Just a plus that he's so darn gorgeous :love: Eye makup enhances his already sexy eyes.

I love using make up, it really enhances my appearance and I’ve learned so much about application over the years in addition when I was a 16-year-old my mother had sent me to a cosmetologist for my 16th birthday to learn how to properly apply make up and I learned the tricks of makeup application. She didn’t want me to overdo it and I was very thankful that she did do that for me as it’s helped me build my confidence over the years.

LOVE IT! ( 👏 - applause )❤️

Imagine how utterly boring it would be if it wasn’t?
 
Talk to any current high schooler and you'll learn that "fluid" sexuality and gender identification are very trendy right now.

Remember when our parents were clutching their pearls about boys with long hair back in the 60s & 70s? So much whining about being unable to tell if they're boys or girls!

I'm with @jujube on this.

Thing is, Keesha, not everyone likes diversity, just like not everyone wants to live in an area with different races, like in Los Angeles. There are those that have different likes and dislikes. Some love diversity, while others don't or not nearly as much.

It has been happening for years now. Men are looking more & more lady like with their tight jeans, jewelry & make up. Women are looking more masculine every year with their clothes. If you want to see a good looking woman you almost have to buy a magazine or look at a movie. Glad I'm in my 70s.

Define good looking. Do you think the women in the magazines or movies actually look like that in real life? Do they look the same when they shop for groceries or take their child to school or the doctor? Are they as 'good looking' as they appear in the mags or movies then? Cosmetics and plastic surgery account for much of the 'good looking' that you admire. It's the difference in looking at a beautiful flower that is plastic as opposed to looking at a real one. Fake or real?

If you're speaking strictly of clothing and fashion, is it the Barbie Doll image of form fitting skirt and stiletto heel that makes a good looking woman to you?

You are precisely right ClassicRockr. Some people don’t like diversity but the ‘reality’ is, the world isn’t going to change for them.

No, but not everywhere in the U.S. is diverse or that much of, and the people who live in those places, like it just that way.

I choose to passively disagree with you. Everywhere in the world is diverse because people are diverse, no matter what rules or restrictions placed upon them. Humanity is diverse by nature and nothing man can do to change that.

Guess you've never been in farming or ranching towns or small cities. Right? I've been to many and talked to people having breakfast at a small café. When asked by me, "what do you think about diversity?" They answered...………."keep that stuff in the big cities!"

I’ve lived in a rural area most of my life. Our town is 2 miles away with less than 1,000 people and we have been here for 25 years. Our area has land so fertile that Mennonites settle here to farm for a living.

Most of the land is farmed or ranched and the rest is forest. The above pictures are a few photos from around my area. As I’ve previously stated before, there’s farms worth millions around the area where I live. I’m surrounded by horses, goats, cows, donkeys etc.
