No, long skirts had nothing to do with shaving.
They did have, however, everything to do with social mores, religion, and climate.

When my hair gets too long, girls don't smile, waitresses aren't QUITE as nice and I don't usually have girls approach me and give me too much attention.
I prefer men with shaggy hair

I have hair way down my back, I also have a goatee.

I dont notice any difference in service than when I had short hair from waitresses and the like.

Yeah, I'm not saying anything against long hair. I'm saying when my hair is overgrown it simply looks bad and overgrown on me. My haircut is a haircut meant for short hair, and when it gets long it looks bad.

I had long hair back in the day and women liked it, but it was meant to be long.

I was simply making a reference that guys can be treated like that too when they don't keep themselves up. Everyone tends to be treated better when you look better, and I'm sure that if you were to go out looking raggy you'd be treated differently too.

That's because you are a big man and noone will mess with you.

It's not that makeup makes you look more beautiful (which of course it does), it also gives you a finished, professional, and polished look.

Men that typically say women look better without makeup typically know nothing about makeup. I asked a guy who told me women look better without makeup if I was wearing makeup when I met him, and if so, how much and what was the nature of the kind of makeup was I wearing.

He couldn't even tell me if I was wearing makeup.

I am going to post a face picture of myself and I want people to guess how many times of makeup am I wearing. Then I will let you know exactly what I'm wearing. Men only!
That's what I'm talking about.



The only thing I can see is what looks like lip gloss, which really isn't necessarily the same thing as lip-stick and I don't have a problem with lip gloss.

Nice cheekbones; I have an innate weakness for oval eyes, especially dark eyes.

Better than Beyonce.

Not making it up....

It helps to know fashion history before one goes off half-cocked.
In urban America, not rural America where 75% of Americans lived.

French, German and Italian women wore the same dresses during the same time period, but didn't shave. I would also point out that in spite of that, European women did not start shaving until just recently. This is the same nonsense as your magazine and TV ads that pictured nothing but blonde-haired blue-eyed women in the 1950s. You can't really justify it without also demonstrating that you've been brainwashed to believe what you do.

Not impressed...

I don't find her attractive with makeup on but she looks fine without makeup/hours getting ready to get out.

Those hours are worth more to me, I guess.

I wish I knew how to post pictures in here-but I don't so you will have to google her. I was thinking of this thread last night while watching Jay Leno. He had actress Tilda Swinton on and she ALWAYS looks so washed out and pasty white to me that I was making her up in my head (as in applying makeup to her.....) You makeup haters cannot tell me that she wouldn't look better with makeup on- well you could but I'll not believe you.

I wear make up in photographs. I am an indoors person so I have the milky white casper look. However I also have Native American in me which gives a yellow tinge to my skin so if I don't wear make up for a photograph I will look really bad. I look fine in person but photography is totally different.
