Decades ago, I worked with a woman who never wore makeup because her fiance claimed to hate it. The bridal salon where she bought her wedding dress gave her a free makeup demo when she went for a fitting one night after work. When she got home, he said "Wow, you look fantastic! What have you been doing?" 🤦

Unless they were theatre kids in high school, most men have no clue how makeup works. They didn't grow up with fashion magazines and online makeup tutorials, so they think of someone who has really overdone it when they think of makeup.

Women only trans inclusive This is an inclusive community for all things women. Whether you're here for make up tips, feminism or just friendly chit chat, we've got you covered.

Rules…

  1. Women only… trans women are women, and transphobic or gender critical talk isn’t allowed. Anyone under the trans umbrella (e.g. non-binary, bigender, agender) is free to decide whether a women's community is a good fit for them.
  2. Don’t be a dick. No personal attacks, no aggression, play nice.
  3. Don’t hate on groups, hatefilled talk about groups is not allowed. Ever.
  4. No governmental politics, so no talk of Trump actions etc. We recommend Feminism@beehaw.org for that, but here is an escape from it.
  5. New accounts or users with few comments may have their posts removed to prevent spam and bad-faith participation.
