My dad used to tell me, son, if you want to talk to a girl and you're scared, just picture her on the toilet with her panties around her ankles, taking a dump.


This is a similar but in a way a very different principle. The difference between that and this app is that rather than being about fear on the man's part, it's about simply knocking an arrogant woman down a few notches, not to a level below what she is, but to the exact level that she is. It's not like it uglifies them, it just removes the makeup.


Of course, it could be used by guys who are intimidated by apparently good looking women, and for that it would be very useful as a psychological tool, but really as far as I see the important application of it would be to remind certain women that they're not special, they're just like everyone else.
So, women who wear makeup are arrogant? Ohhhkaayyyyyy.....

Hey, thanks for joining just to give us your insightful perspective! We wouldn't have seen the light without you!

This thread has very interesting opinions.


This wins it for me - doesn't insult anyone, short and straight to the point and very accurate.

Unless her looks take after her father, and her genetic heritage governing aging, as well.

haha, true. I look more like my dad than my mom. But they both look okay for their 70 years on earth.

I mean.....I definitely know girls that look completely different without makeup. Whenever I hear about this I think of this girl that I worked with when I was a waiter for a stint in college. OMG. It was shocking.

“Everyone”
No.

People I can tell have way too much make up on and it’s obvious?
Yep.


Make up can be fun but it shouldn’t be used to rearrange your whole face.
The “outrage” over the app is hilarious.

...Albeit for the wrong reasons

I haven't seen any outrage over the app.

I've seen some frustration with stupidity, but that's it.

Genral reaction on the internet, Not just this site.

Everyone has their own agenda depending on whatever it is they want to defend surrounding it

I'm a woman, so your question doesn't pertain to me, but I'm curious to know if you're planning on building a relationship that is built on looks and, if so, what happens when she gets a pimple on her nose...the relationship is over?

Also, assuming she has also built her relationship with you based on your looks, what happens if you go bald like a lot of men do? What if you get a big belly? Game over?

Just wondering how this works.

I guess you're just dating, and not planning on building a lasting relationship.
