Why would shaving be seen as a hygienic measure? There's a lot of women out there who don't shave their legs and most men don't. And most everybody except swimmers don't shave their arm hair. Shaving is almost entirely an aesthetic thing. Except for swimmers where it's a speed thing. And the nether regions which people will argue is a sex thing.
Yeah, there's really nothing unhygenic about not shaving. It just means you get hairy. Shaving actually tends to lead to more issues than not, such as ingrown hairs and infected follicles.
Hi, I'm a girl, and I still want your attention.Originally Posted by Kentarou
Some things are just such ubiquitous cultural standards that they're useless to fight against. Like me having to wear a tie on formal/professional occasions -- it's because doing otherwise would be very frowned upon by a lot of people. So I can understand shaving, because the majority of people do not find excessive hairiness attractive.
But eyelashes? Really? Would not bothering impact what other people think of you in the slightest?
Wide-eyes are pretty universally attractive. Curling your eyelashes makes your eyes look wider. Duh.
I have to admit, I didn't know eyelash curling was this ubiquitous. I think mine are flashy enough with mascara xD
Not really. Women do it to needlessly compete with each other and then you wonder why most guys think women are sluts.
What's slutty about appearing pretty?
Not getting what I am saying. There is nothing wrong with being pretty. There IS something wrong with being pretty for the sake of trying to outdo other women and compete like a pack of wild animals. I am not saying that ALL or the majority of women do this, for the record. The few that do kind of ruin it for everyone.
Whether I am a trashy place like a bar or a "sophisticated" place like a libray and a woman is overdressed, I never ever trust them. Something has to be up. Yes, everyone--male or female--goes out of their way to look good in public, but when I feel like someone (again, male or female) is doing it for the sake of some unwritten competition, it's just shallow and pointless.
No one is going to agree with me.
Yeah, really! Like, this one time I saw this girl I really liked, great body and personality, and I was about to ask her out... when I realized her eyes really could've been wider with eyelash curling. Oh well, maybe the next one.
Totally. I agree with you! I was at a bar running my mad game on some chick when I suddenly realized that her eyelashes weren't long enough. I threw my drink in her face, started a bar fight, and spent the night in jail because of it! WOMEN RUIN EVERYTHING!Yeah, really! Like, this one time I saw this girl I really liked, great body and personality, and I was about to ask her out... when I realized her eyes really could've been wider with eyelash curling.

Curling your eyelashes is only a marginal improvement on a girl's entire look, no one is saying that its some big whopping change, but it does make a small positive impact. And since it only takes a few seconds, I dunno why it's such a "OMG WHY WOULD YOU DO THAT TO YOURSELF?!" thing. Shaving is a much bigger pain in the ass than the few seconds it takes to bend some hair.
I've never used an eyelash curler, so I think I will try one tomorrow!
You should record it Monda!!
