Eye shadow, hair dye, lipstick, nail polish.....

Weareth you any such affectations? I got some sweet plum polish on my left nails and a light aqua teal on my right. Hopefully the girls notice in my stats class tomorrow. They won't comment, of course.

I just learned eyeliner sometimes gets in your tearducts and into your nose and throat.
 
No. I don't.

The nearest I get to it is washing my person, shaving my face, and occasionally combing my hair.

But I knew a man who did. I don't know why. He was a remarkable only in the fact that he was thoroughly unremarkable. And remarkably his cosmetic habit didn't make him any less unremarkable.
 
I wouldn't dream of it. Am already even kinda adverse to women doing it (though I admit that it can look nice, at times). This whole deal rubs me the wrong way

Hell, in some moments I even feel a pinch of adversity towards hair removal, striking me as superficial, fake, delusional even and utmost silly. And I think back of that girl in my class who made a point of not shaving her legs because of her idealism and alternative believes and I kind of admire her.

On the other hand, I never minded doing my head hair - because it looks pretty good on me. So if you think colored nails do the trick for you, I'll certainly not condemn you for it. Though do you really think girls care for that?

:dubious:

O-kay...


I wore nail polish for awhile back in junior and senior high. Then two things happened: I got serious about my music and kept my fingernails very short (long nails interfere with playing the organ and it can be very painful if they contribute to getting one's fingers in the way of typewriter keys), and my respiratory allergies got worse.

I've worn makeup exactly twice, both times under duress, for a school Christmas concert. I hated it and haven't worn it since. No lipstick, mascara, eyeshadow, or anything else.

No hair dye. I'm over 50 and expect to keep my hair color for quite some years yet. Even my dad, who just turned 80, is still noticeably blond.


The only time when I get "color on my person" is when I accidentally get ink on my fingers.
 
I don't color my actual body, no, but i regularly work on (including coloring) the removable face-mask i use as my external body mass in that area.
Most people can never pick up any difference, but if you know where to look it is still pretty clear that the lines from the ears to the nose produce a way too austerely Phi-approximated curve leading to and diverting to the center of the face.

Must work more on that.
 
No. Never have. I'm a 50 year old straight white guy, so most of those things are so out of normal for my demographic that I've never even considered it. Some guys my age color their grey, but I have no grey. Dad didn't go grey until he was in his 70s. Mom claims that she doesn't color now. Not sure if I believe her, she's 86. But she makes the claim.
 
I've never colored my self, I'm pretty happy with the colors I do have.

I do trim my beard, shave my chest, trim my pubes, and occasionally put pomade in my hair. I think that hair control in general is very important, but eyeliner or colored nails aren't something I've ever even considered.
 
How about tooth whitening? Does that count?

How about sunbathing? Or sunbeds?

Have you seriously considered waxing, or fake tans?

How about cosmetic surgery?
 
I'm a straight, square, male in the USA, the only color on my body is accidental ink from handling pens.
 
Do tans count? Because every once in a while I will lie down on a beach and tan the PG rated parts of my body.

Other than that I don't see the point. The last time I coloured something other than the above was when I got a purple streak in my hair in highschool. Too much hassle for it to be worth it as a permanent change, so it didn't last very long.
 
My brother naturally has darker hair than me but right now his is lighter than mine due to him getting it bleached. He also has a few tattoos on his body and has an eyebrow pierced. Things are something I will never do.
 
I've had green, yellow, and purple hair.

It gets weird like the second week after you've dyed your hair and you wonder why people are starring at you.
 
The closest thing to that was when I had my head hair down to a number one. People would come up to me rub my head, but the one good thing was that it was easy having shower with such little hair to wash.
 
I don't wear flesh tone clothing, and I do have a tattoo.
 
No, since it would make me feel vain.
 
If I owned a person I may feel some inclination to paint them up I suppose, but I have never owned a person...
