As for the question-it was a stupid one which is why I ignored it.

Makes for great discussions.

Why was the question stupid? Did you even think about it for a minute?

Because it is something that will never happen and why should I waste my time answering. Come to think of it, why am I wasting my time on this thread.

I know. Why are people so bothered that women who enjoy the Fashion and Beauty Firum actually like fashion and beauty. So weird.🙄

No wonder women are so easily manipulated, we go to war at each other instead of supporting one another. So here is the thing, I'm a bit of both. Some days I love to wear heels, do my hair and other days I'm in yoga pants, no make up shoveling cookie dough down my throat. Why can't we quit trying to label women and just support their independent choices? Peace.

I will assume you don't wear make up? And I say good for you (not sarcastic btw), I'm sure you have gorgeous skin because of that. I agree that there are indeed insecurities, social norms, etc., involved for some/many women, it is not your place to judge. Maybe we could start building each other up instead of tearing down?

Exactly. At some times, I can be extremely casual; at others, I get in the mood to adorn myself.

Yep. Me too, I hardly wear make up on the weekend... I wear some during the week ~ especially if I've been having bouts of insomnia. I need a little colour those days, and some days I just want to be feminine and wear pretty dresses and wear makeup.

I don't think this needs to be analysed, by any arm-chair psychologists.

Maybe you wouldn't! But I would still like some makeup around so I can try a different look when I feel like it.

I like to think of it as let's say something like having cashmere sweatpants. Or cashmere socks. No one looking at your pants is going to say: oh those are cashmere. You aren't walking around saying: OMG I have cashemere on. But you get the cozy feeling, and you like it because it feels nice against your skin.

It is up to you to decide if that cozy feeling is worth the effort (or hit to your wallet).

And as for men....I like to see armpit hair, and find it a turnoff if it's shaved or waxed off.

(Yes, I do understand if one is a body builder, the hair gets in the way of seeing the full musculature, so for those folks, have at it. Otherwise, please leave your male pits unshaven.)

It's personal preference, of course.
One of the funniest things I have seen this year was a guy with a full beard and absolutely no body hair.
