    On the other hand, some dudes go nuts for heels.

    BJ doesn't so I almost never wear them. ^_^

    As long as they don't hurt themselves, starve their children in the process, etc. I guess it's... tolerable.

    But personally, I prefer girls who don't use any of that stuff whatsoever (as in no makeup, no eye liner, no lipstick, no earrings, etc.). I'll admit that no earrings may be a bit too much. The more of that stuff a girl uses, the less innocent and sincere they look. To me, even if a girl pretties herself up to the max (sorry if this sounds cheesy, I didn't know how else to say it) with all that aforementioned stuff, I still wouldn't be willing to feast my eyes on her (I didn't know how else to say this part either) if she did it in a way that makes her appearance lose its innocence.

    I'm hoping that some of you actually got what I was saying and I wasn't just spouting nonsense you couldn't understand.

    Dunno how I feel about this topic. Personally, I enjoy the company of women who are self confident enough to go out without anything on, or in pajamas.

    Although if that said woman wants to coat her eyes with shark skin make up and face with 1 pound of cover up, blush and subject her body to something that amounts to torture in order to magnify everything 100x, sure why not. Beauty radiates outward from the inside anyways but there is nothing wrong with flaunting it.

    The only girly things I do is wear makeup and the occasional slightly more dressy (to me, that is, probably not to some other people) clothing when I'm going out to a movie or eating. I do get my hair colored once every six months, if that even; however, I don't get mani-pedi's, I hate shopping, I hate gossip and chattering my head off with my gal-pals. I always refer to myself as "the other brother" as I have 2 brothers. Always been a tomboy and had a hard time understanding girls on certain things as well.

    They baffle me sometimes.

    I'm far too accident prone to ever trust myself anywhere near an eyelash curler. I have a hard enough time simply using flat irons without injury...In fact, just burnt my forehead with my flat irons tonight, have a small blister Not to mention my inability to walk very well in heels...though I'm learning! And well, I simply prefer jeans/t-shirt or pajamas over a skirt/dress every day

    W-why? xD

    I don't get it. I'm not sure if you're implying that I should eat my own words because I have a boyfriend or not? Being single is awesome too. I actually recommend people enjoy their time being single before they go into a long-term relationship. It really kicks ass. Though I like being taken as well.

    Half the reason I have a boyfriend is probably more to do with the fact that I don't get dressed up for the purpose of every chasing guys. I don't feel the need to. If he wants to date me, he can let me know.

    @Monda - I don't like blush either! My cheeks actually get really red really easily, so I don't like anything else that calls attention to it!

    For the most part, I like to do things to improve my skin without make-up as well. When I'm at home, my skin glows, since I get to eat eggs and those other healthy things and use my nice moisturizer and such. Sometimes, I don't even wear any cover-up at all because I have no bags under my eyes. Unfortunately, due to my British malnutrition, the bags are back. xD

    The best way that I do all this is that I always wear sun skin. No leather-skin wrinkles for me later in life!

    For the most part, I don't think these routines are actually crazy or lengthy. It will tend to go something like me...

    * brush my teeth and floss (everyone does this)
    * washing my hair every other day, drying it for about 20 minutes. (Which is something that nearly anyone with long enough hair does anyway)
    * Washing my face with this special soap liquid so I don't break out. (a lot of guys I know do this)
    * Put on a bit of moisturizer. (takes all of 10 seconds)
    Then if I feel like it, I'll...

    * Put on make-up. That rarely takes long. 5 minutes, tops. More likely just a minute or two.

    * Get dressed. (everyone does this)

    It's really not that hard. I don't ped-egg very often. I get my nails done at a salon once and a while, but more often I have just my nasty little bitten nails which are impossible to paint.

    I take less time to get ready than my little brother does, because he brushes his teeth for literally, ten minutes straight. I timed it once. Good for him though, I guess, he has really nice teeth.

    EDIT: @Shlup. Yeah, I rarely wear heels. I brought one pair with me for when I go out to nicer places, and I've wore them all of two times. I definitely tend to wear flats more.

    If you weren't a poopy-head that might mean more.

    Hey! That's how we groom ourselves to look impressive to women!

    How can you understand shaving but not eye lash curling?

    Shaving takes like 20 times as long, and there's like a thousand more likelihood of hurting yourself via shaving than with an eyelash curler. Of all the makeup applications, eye lash curling literally takes the least amount of time.

    Acting as though it's this insane thing that girls do, now that's the weird thing.

    Something I've been meaning to ask...

    Why is this important?

    The simple truth of girls being weird adds a lot of weight to the subject.

    Shaving can be seen as more of a hygiene issue, whereas eye lash curling is purely cosmetic.
