If a girl looks good without any makeup, then that just makes her all the more attractive. She is in fact genetically superior (more estrogen) to the girls that need makeup to look good.
Which is strange because when I put make up on the last thing people think of me is desperate...

About a million years ago I dated a girl for a short while. Her makeup was so thick that I use to imagine her scrapping the stuff off with a spatula each night. YUK!!!

Men like pretty women period. Untouchable, touchable. Brown hair, blonde hair. Short, Tall. Skinny, curvy.

Its the same for women really. Sure I have my rugged type that I find irresistable, but throw in a clean cut guy with nice eyes and a nice smile and I'm drooling all over the place. Haha, ok maybe not drooling. Maybe just happy .

Men, generally, hate women like that. They wanna make out with their women and the less that gets in the way between them and doing that, the better. I mean, you have personality types, worries about STDs, social barriers, life plans, etc etc etc getting in the way, WHY put MORE in the way??? Makes zero sense.

Women ... if you do wear makeup, PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE put on only a small amount, to cover the ever-so-evil-but-guys-really-don't-give-a-****-about eye bags, maybe eye liner, and dabs of stuff to cover pimples, but not too much. Too much pimples = see a dermatologist. The end.

You remind me to go to the Fashion forum tomorrow and revise some "curl" advice! Forgot to tell them the curls don't last under extreme circumstances!

No matter how much a man says he wants a "real" woman - someone who is maybe a little over weight, or has wrinkles, or belches like a frog - deep down most guys want the FANTASY. Come on. Why do you think there are all these magazines with airbrushed women on the front? Why do you think plastic surgery is so popular?

Do you think they like Scarlett Johansen because she looks rugged, and real? Hmmmm.

Heck yea we want the fantasy!

But the OP, if you read close enough, was talking about how men are afraid of high maintenance women who are all afraid to do stuff normally they would be doing.

Don't get men wrong, we want the fantasy, but we want our cake and eat it too, not just look at it.
