Is Wearing Make-up a Betrayal?
Quote:A set of before and after photos that show the dramatic difference between a woman with and without make-up have sparked an internet debate about cosmetics.
Posted by make-up artist Melissa Murphy, the images, simply captioned: 'Make-up. That's it,' show a bare-faced woman with acne scars and shiny skin, and then her transformation after putting on make-up, with thicker eyebrows, flawless looking skin and a seemingly thinner face.
The stark difference between the images has sparked a debate on Reddit, with some internet users labeling make-up in general a 'betrayal' because it hides a woman's true self.

"hides a woman's true self"...Like the appearance represents her true self. If I'll change some clothes, cut my hair, get a tattoo etc., do I become a different person?

Wearing suits or driving nice cars doesn't change a man's appearance, it only conveys he probably has resources and probably can provide for a partner, which is exactly what women want, while makeup does hide the woman's real physical appearance, which is her greatest asset, so yes, they are lying when they do it..

Come on, not everyone is so alpha that just pumps and dumps girls all the time and never sticks around for more than an hour. Some guys do spend more time than that with girls, and some actually *gasp* even have girlfriends or wives. So yes, eventually you will have to see a woman with no make up on, and yes, sometimes it is extremely disappointing.
I agree that everyone does what they need to attract a mate, and I'm not faulting women for doing it, hell, if I were a woman I'll do it too, but it is false advertising at the very least.

Ah, but what if neither the suit or the car are yours?

No no, not claiming super-alphahood. Just saying that women such as these, who are painted hussies, are usually the kind not worth keeping. Some women certainly are, but in my experience the more makeup a woman wears the more insecure and bitchy she's likely to be.
Game, bust, and make good your discreet escape.

Haha, then you're wearing makeup for men.
But really, while you'd be considered a loser or poseur for trying to pretend you're something you're not, in this case pretending you have more resources than you really do, women masquerading their real physical appearance, their biggest resource, is considered normal.
I'm not totally against makeup though, some here or there is ok by me, it's those cases where after she takes all those pounds of goo off her face and you have to wonder if she's the same person that irk me.
I'm not against lying to women either, if you have to lie and pretend just do it.

RE: Is Wearing Make-up a Betrayal?
Make up simply exposes women's liberation and femenism as a joke. Women all hate each other for the most part and will never give up the advantage make-up gives them in luring alpha cock. Even many of the most radical unless she is a dogged out dyke still wears makeup, unshaven legs and all. It's funny to see this and it will always represent the females true insecure nature and for validation, their contempt for each other, and the females on-going needed obsession for aesthetics to lure and attract men.
Make-up was always intended to enhance not mask things. Women have abused it to help hide their modern overburdened lifestyles of trying to imitate us. A tierd women looks like a decayed tree, while a tierd man from activity is worn and weathered like leather or stone. One is more subtle while the other is more drastic and harsh in apperance. The scars, marks, bags, and overall fucked up skin that women hide just to me simply shows this modern life she chooses is to hard for her to handle naturally.

RE: Is Wearing Make-up a Betrayal?
I've always preferred that my first encounter with a woman be when she was casual - dressed down in a t-shirt and sweats (nice ones...hahaha!) or jeans, hair pulled back, with no makeup. If I think she's at least cute that way, I know she's truly attractive. Even when she's got makeup on, I prefer just a little something to bring out the eyes, and something for the lips, and little else. I noticed on the pics, they even powdered away the freckles on her upper chest. Ideally, makeup should enhance, not mask or alter. But we know better...hahaha!
