Remember the median age group we're talking to here - late teens. And *nobody* - not even Bozo, Krusty, and Binky - wears more makeup than High-School girls. :laugh:

I absolutely would. Natural is almost always better; better looking, and sure as hell better tasting. It would save everyone money, hopefully drop some of this vanity competition, and greatly reduce the amount of advertisements that waste our time, resources, and money.

Make-up = BAD.

Just as long as you feel the same about teeth whitening products, hair gel/spray/brushes, clothes that come in any other color besides the natural color of the material, etc.

I'm a guy and I say if they want to wear it, fine. If not, fine.

I once asked a few female friends why their wore make-up, and they all said that they wore it for themselves, not to attract guys.

That's just the answer they give to men who ask that question. It's woman protocol 101. They have had that canned stock answer engrained in their heads since they were old enough to play with Barbies.

Pretty close.

I detest fashion, hate marketing and advertising, dislike tans, think spending more than $20/month on haircuts is lunacy, etc. I really am an uber-naturalist and anti-materialist.

I did not even think about that... you are right. The thing is... most women who look like they are NOT wearing makeup, ARE wearing makeup artfully. THat is the secret that women use... you should not notice they are wearing makeup.
I love the fact that all these "men" on here are saying they don't want makeup on their women... yet they when they whine about how ugly celebrities are without any makeup, etc.

I think the issue is that most guys either notice they are wearing too much, or cant tell they are wearing makeup and think it is natural.

IF you can tell a woman is wearing makeup, she is wearing too much or using it incorrectly (eyeshadow, etc, non naturall looking makeup excluded)

oh and yeah don't forget the clowns as posted above...we need the clowns!
 
Does it matter? Beautiful women are beautiful regardless of whether or not they wear make-up. Ugly b!tches follow the same rule. Beauty is only skin-deep but ugly goes straight to the bone.

Nah, make-up isn't false advertising, it's just "product enhancement"...now false eyelashes, silicone implants, falsies, "tush-enhancers" toupees & wigs, and the like...THAT'S false advertisement...

They don't like makeup the same way they don't like breast implants... but of course they like both just fine on the women of pron. They like the "natural look"on g/friends and wives because it means most other men won't look at them twice.

I dunno if i agree with that reasoning. I will say that Tera Patrick pre-implants looks a lot better than post-implants.

however she wasn't lacking at all before she got them.
