What's your opinion on the following things women do to beautify themselves?
From a male perspective:
High heels - Okay for the occasional night out, but sometimes women tottering around in them just look silly. Wearing heels constantly is subjecting yourself to pain for the sake of fashion.
Painting nails - I actually never got why so many women were into painting their finger and tone nails. I have no problem if they want to make themselves pretty but in terms of attraction it doesn't change anything for me.
Eye-shadow/eye-liner/mascara: Maybe a bit, but personally, too many girls just overdo it. If you can tell within a second she's wearing dark eye shadow it's too much.
Lip-stick/lip-gloss: Kind of indifferent to it, really. Don't really like to taste lipstick though.
The fastidious use of moisturizer/lotions/scrubs: It's good to want to have good skin, but you can probably overdo it. Some women act like blackheads or pores are the size of small craters lol.
Foundation etc. I guess is more subtle.
Eye lash extensions/fake eyelashes: To be honest I viewed them as a bit silly and also unnecessary.
Jewelry - Kind of neutral on it. Not a fan of too much jewelry on anyone.
Hair dye - No problem wanting a change now and then, but changing colour every month or so is overdoing it a wee bit. The bottle blonde fad went outta control for a little while (for both sexes really).
Fake breasts - Unless you're like an A or small B cup and you really feel the need to, I think the balloon like breasts are a result of male fetishism.
Fake tan - I know real tanning can be harmful...I like the bronzed look if doesn't make you look like an oompa loompa.
Women's clothing in general - Seems to be geared to be sexy: revealing, figure-hugging.
I'm not trying to be judgemental, doesn't make me think less of women who do that, thought it'd be an interesting thread topic.
About the only things that are "blah" with me are dresses. If she is attractive, a country guy doesn't care if she has on jeans and a t-shirt. She'll still look great in scrubs like at the dentist office. Women seldom wear dresses around here. Only to work if they have to and church it seems. I like painted nails and toe nails. Make up is a must. Many country women put some of their "earthy" metro competition to shame on this one. If you are working outside and sweating bullets in the yard...don't bother. The same if you are heading to the lake for skiing or swimming. If she's going fishing, she'll wear it. I don't know where all this "I don't give a rip" thing came from. From a guys mind, it makes us feel like we aren't good enough for you to look sexy for us. Women don't use that fake tanning stuff either. We have tanning beds galore in town. Hair die is good to cover up grays back to your real color. Fake blonds should just stay what they were IMO. I don't like all that red and purple punk crap they put in and do to their hair either. It just looks like hell. I like some earrings, rings and some necklaces on them. Nothing clanky though. As for boobs, do what you want, I love them ALL. Yeah, no tats please. It's so out of place on a beauty it's not funny. They look like they are on smack or something. You heard it on the X y'all! ZZ Top - Heard It On The X - YouTube
Ladies know that most men wouldn't know a peplum if it fell out of the sky and couldn't tell the difference between a pump and an espadrille.

haha the OP makes me sound like a tomboy in comparison, despite the fact that all I wear when I'm not working at the YMCA are shorts, skirts and dresses when the weather is warm (which is all the time here).

Tomboys are slammin' as long as they wear make up!

No, espadrilles are cotton or linen shoes with coiled rope soles.
I am wondering how a man is capable of putting so much thought process into this much detail. It's astonishing.
What's your sexual orientation?
Yea I think the OP is either a woman in disguise or a homosexual. Straight men don't look at all those details and make value judgments, they just look if a girl looks good. Going into detail criticizing makeup is not something I've ever done with my male friends when critiquing a woman. Guys check out a girls face and her figure. They will like what they see based on their preference for size and thickness. Women do a lot of their stuff to get compliments from other women. Men may find that strange but women do that.

Being aesthetically inclined does not make you gay. I think everyone here knows what really does make you gay. And anyway..who freaking cares who is gay or not. We are talking about things chicks do to look good. Doesn't really matter what your sexual orientation is. People need to stop being so homophobic and using sexual orientation as a slanderous term as if we are in junior high.

I agree. Just because a man is more aware of what goes into a womans look does not = gay. Kinda juvenile.
