why shouldn't men wear make up?

Question

whats so wrong about men who want to wear make-up (i wish i had their guts). i imagine most people think that its wrong but who are they to judge people. people think such men are gay, but theres nothing homosexual about wearing make-up. why is it something for women only?

Answer 1

I don't think it's wrong. It's one of those things that society has come to dictate should be for women only. And anything that is considered 'feminine' or 'for women' is considered demeaning to men, because society remains sexist, whether people say so or not.

Answer 2

Have you seen Michael Jackson lately?

Seriously, I was at the Superdome for the final four. Brent Musburger, the TV announcer came in to announce the games. He looked like warmed over death. 15 minutes later, after two women hovered over him making him up, he looked like a million bucks! So you may have a point. Me personally? Nah. I couldn't do it.

Answer 3

Because in the American Culture it is considered feminine, and American's (for the most part) have very defined male & female roles.
