I'm a woman who used to never leave the house without make up but mostly don't wear it now, or just a couple of very small things like eyebrow pencil and lip color. I would hate to think I could work someplace that told me I HAD to wear make up (obviously I don't mean as an actor or something like that). The same thing works in the opposite direction. If this guy wants to wear make up, let him. What difference does it make to anyone else, any more than me not wearing make up?

He could lighten up on the overlined lips a little bit, but his makeup looks tasteful otherwise. I think he was right to call out the policy when there isn't one for the women of the workplace on the same issue.

Nah Ruth, they both look creepy, that's why you think it's the same person)))

I'm traditional, but I see the world is changing drastically; thus, I think people just have to get used to see beautiful men and macho women, or men wearing dresses and women wearing suits and ties if they like.

As long as they come in to work looking neat and clean, not sloppy and smelly, and they do their work, I'm okay with that.

Here is a problem though; when women wear make-up at the work place, it's about the betterment of their appearance. When men wear make-up, it's about their "sexual orientation." At the work place. Because as far as I know straight men don't wear make-up. At least not yet)))

If there was a way to conceal the dark circles under my eyes without the possibility of being noticed, I probably would.

Maybe he's "coming out". If that were the case, his boss could not request him not to ware makeup. That would be discrimination.

Cool excluded-middle fallacy, bro.
