LittleStarmen Posted October 3, 2023 Share Posted October 3, 2023 2 hours ago, BletaRexher said: I’ve been seeing a rise in ads pushing skincare to men. While the basics like cleaning and moisturizing when you’re dry are normal, I think some guys are taking it too far. To me personally when I see a guy with a completely plump face that looks wet 24/7 it’s a massive turn off. It may be because I'm attracted to more masculine presenting men but does any one else have this turn off? no hate if you’re this type I know most people are attracted to it. I think you are confusing with male makeup. Skincare should not leave you greasy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Take Me Apart Posted October 3, 2023 Share Posted October 3, 2023 (edited) For a lot of a vain metrosexual gay men their "beauty" is their only saving trait, they can’t shine with their intelligence or culture and they’re too lazy and undisciplined to flourish in their career. It’s sad really because they’re spending thousands into something that’s mostly genetic, once that clock runs out they’ll come to reality (I hope).

Jotham Posted October 3, 2023 Share Posted October 3, 2023 I never really understood the hype behind skin care. Many products are just scams and so much to having "good skin" just depends on genetics. You can spend hundreds of dollars and have bad skin, and you can spend little to none and have great skin.

DuffLavigne Posted October 3, 2023 Share Posted October 3, 2023 Good skin is a turn-on. For some people, that might take 3 products. For others, it might take 10. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kataraqueen Posted October 3, 2023 Share Posted October 3, 2023 Imagine basing masculinity and feminity on dumb **** like this if I noticed my boyfriend ever being on a gossip-like website such as ATRL, I feel like that would be much more of an anti-masculine turn off if we're gonna go there, ironically enough 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Negev Posted October 3, 2023 Share Posted October 3, 2023 3 hours ago, GraceRandolph said: The problem is we internalize these messages regardless of what we think of capitalism. Look at the amount of commenters treating acne and looking older than your age as a personal moral failing of some kind. People are going to age differently depending on a lot of factors and we shouldn’t have to spend hundreds of dollars a month on our ******* skin. I don't like your posts on this topic, at all. Maybe you're born with the privilege of flawless skin, but a lot of people suffer from unbalanced skin and acne. Taking care of your skin to present better to the world isn't bad, getting a facial isn't bad, working out is good for you, having dietary discipline is good for you. It all comes down to how well you treat your body & soul. I wouldn't ridicule someone because they positively treat themselves a certain way. Am I going to raise an eyebrow over an obese person eating out? Yes, I will, because their body is screaming for help and they're hurting it. Same for an acne ridden face on someone who neglects themselves. Skincare is a resolution to a problem. You're enlightened and know you're being sold excessive items for monetary gain of others- that's great! Because this is the case for most things in our lifetime. We're being oversold material things, overwhelmed with ideas and information and overfed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Khal Posted October 3, 2023 Share Posted October 3, 2023 It’s not about being “masculine”, it’s that it robs people’s faces of any uniqueness or personality. Everyone looking like some freaky, sexless porcelain doll. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She has amazing skin. Literally the definition of ageless and unclockable, without resorting to procedures, surgery, or injections. For me, it's a turn-off to see people walking around looking like dried up leather purses. Edited October 3, 2023 by Reginald 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skankle Posted October 3, 2023 Share Posted October 3, 2023 I once went home with someone from the club and they did their 12 stage Korean skincare routine before coming to bed for the worst sex I ever had. Was kind of endearing and sweet though! Otherwise I genuinely do not care. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
