I am crazy or is she not way more attractive without the makeup?

    i mean the makeup sucks, frankly. I don't understand why it has become normal to dip your head in a bucket of concealer..
    Feels like the equivalent of guys who think more muscle == more betterer until they just look like balloon animals.

    My husband just said, "If you think the one on the right is not an attractive woman, maybe you're gay. Like, you should just be looking for dudes."

    Maybe she's not your exact type, but surely we can all agree that she very much fits the bill for what a large majority of people would traditionally consider pretty.

    I am personally not a fan of the highly-made-up trend, so I do think that she's more attractive without the makeup. But I also understand why people like wearing makeup, and it's her right to do it or not depending on her mood. I think anyone who can't tell that she's wearing makeup in the photo on the left is (a) lying or (b) a child.

    Part of it is she's authentically smiling and joyful without the makeup instead of doing that forced neutral "Paris Hilton" kind of look with the make-up.

    Turns out when people are happy and in a good mood they're more attractive. Who knew?

    It's almost liberating to realize that beauty is not the same as attractiveness.

    Someone can look below average, but have a shining, friendly personality that makes them attractive as hell!

    No matter the gender, either- I'm not a particularly handsome man, but I can tell you that sparking joy works.

    You do realise you're not winning 'good man' points by saying stuff like this, right? You're literally just adding to the misogyny here by further objectifying women.

    Very few people in this thread are capable of understanding that offering judgment on this woman’s appearance is still objectifying her.

    I am getting so tired of the internet lately. I appreciate seeing you around but idk how you still have the will to talk to any of these people, the toxicity of these men is starting to feel like I'm stewing in poison.

    Speaking up when I see casual sexism like this helps heal the years of my life when I was taught to be quiet and allow “boys to be boys”.

    It’s really understandable how people get sick of seeing this type of toxicity. I hope your day has more good, funny, quirky, weird, and fun things pop up instead of gestures at this thread
