Guys Wearing Make Up
We briefly discussed the issue of the children playing with make up. My major interest is trying to discover why is it ok for a man to wear make up when he is modeling or acting, or any type of business that requires him to be behind a camera but not in everyday public.I know its not socially acceptable for a man to do this in public or behind close doors, yet nobody complains when they see their favorite actor, model, or tv personality wearing Mac make up on live tv exposed to the world. 50 cent, LL Cool J, Arnold Schwarzenegger, all these big muscled bound guys wearing "women products" because they want to be pretty on tv. Tyson Beckford and Ashton Kutcher modeling with lip gloss, but nobody ever says anything. So should a man not wear make up, or only under certain circumstances?

I think that you make a good point. I actually know some guys that are my friends who have concealer or some kind of pimple cover up and if I told anyone who they were I would probably get my butt kicked since it is so socially unacceptable for a man to wear make-up. A guy may be called "gay" if he wears makeup in public but it is ok for all these male celebrities to fix their faces before anyone sees? I don't follow.
In high school all the soccor guys wore lip gloss instead of chapstick because they said it felt better and lasted longer. They always had very shiny lips and the football guys would make jokes about them.
One of my friends make up because he is interested in women’s cosmetics. But I cannot accept his behaviors because I feel weird. I am confused when he made up. I ask myself that now he thinks he is men, or he pretends to be women. I really do not know how I communicated with him.
In YouTube, there are a lot of video that how men should make up on their own.
Here is one of this…
