Would you automatically assume a guy was gay if he wore eyeshadow?

Question

Well, I wouldn't assume it. But I want to wear eyeshadow and eyeliner. What do all of you think?

Answer 1

I wouldn't assume that he's gay.

But he would certainly look it.

Answer 2

I know it sounds kind of rude, but if a guy wore pink eyeshadow, I'd think this. And I might be right. But I assume your thinking of black, right? I love it when guys wear black eyeshadow and eyeliner. I'm sure tons of other girls do as well. By the way, good luck. I'm sure you'll look great.

Answer 3

Depends what state you live in and how enlightened the
people are there. Here's a lyric from a song in "Hair":
I would just like to say that it is my contention
That longer hair and other flamboyant affectations
Of appearance are nothing more
Than the male's emergence from his grand camouflage
Into the gaudy plummage that is the birthright of his sex.
There is a familiar notion that elegant plummage
And fine feathers are not proper for the male
Well actually, that is the way things are in most species.
So.....no, I wouldn't think you were gay, straight or anything
but creative...and if you want to wear eye make-up, a good
look is light charcoal on the lids and rim the upper and
lower eyelid with black. I'd pass on mascara.

Answer 4

Ummmm....
Wearing eyeshadow would most likely associate you with gay. Eyeliner on the other hand is what emos wear...so it wouldn't really make you seem gay, but it would make you seem emo. Personally, I don't think you should wear eyeshadow or eyeliner....it's kinda weird for guys to wanna do something like that.

Answer 5

Well alot of guys wear make up but its not cause there gay because they want to try new things. It also depends what kind if you wore like pink then I think theres a chance they might think a guy is gay. Its just very difficult cause there is guys that are gothic or emo and they wear make up, But it just depends on the color.

Answer 6

Eyeliner- No, not if they're Brendon Urie or Pete Wentz (cuz they look hot in it, and they're not gay) or emo.

Eyeshadow- Well, maybe not exactly...maybe if you were metrosexual, which means your straight, but has a strong feminine side. Or emo. Or gay.

Hope I could help! And don't worry about what people like ME think! do whatever you want! You are a blank canvas!

xoxo good luck!

Answer 7

i say go for it. dont bother about wht other people or society in general think of your actions. i bet youd look good with shadow and/or liner on. im a guy and i occassionally wear makeup and i think i look good, my girlfriend says i look good, some of my friends say i look good. a former teacher told me to 'never assume' because youll make an a$$ out of me and you. i would never make the assumption that if a guy wears eyeshadow and/or eyeliner is gay, id say theyre experimenting. i have photos if you want to see.

pick me for best answer!

Answer 8

For my generation, it would probably be assumed the guy is gay. For Gen X and later, it's hard to say since they are a different bunch. Most likely he's a little strange to say the least, but can't say if he's gay or not for certainty. You'll just have to observe and see which way he swings.

Answer 9

people judge the way they want to judge. But i wouldn't say gay because Everybody different in these day, they like to do things/do thing different. If you like go for it. I like the idea because different. In our country there is couple of guys i've seen having eyeshadow & they are gothlic. (where they wear all black).
I think it awesome...

Answer 10

not that it matters if a person is gay or not.. but if a guy was wearing eyeshadow(unless he was in an 80's band) i think most people would assume he was gay.. But hey to each his own so try it and see how it looks.. just my 2 cents worth....

Answer 11

i do no longer. in actuality, interior the eastern Indie and VK type (seen Kei or "seen image") of Rock song, most of the singers and muscians positioned on female outfits and frequently at time positioned on short shorts, skirts, outfits and abdomen shirts to attraction to the female objective audience and inspire them to gown up. very few of those singers, nevertheless they could at circumstances have a female visual attraction whilst doned of their outfits, are gay. maximum individuals (adult men and ladies of Japan and different international places) basically assume they're right this moment except from an instantaneous interview are advised different clever. for my area, i think of if a guy has great legs and shaves them (oh god furry legs are disgusting), he can get away with donning an prolonged or short skirt.
