I have a very old friend that I've known for about 15 years.

He was a drug user/drunk and got flabby through the years. About 8 years ago he decided to get his shit together, starting working out, started to get into the pick up artist shit pretty deep and was actually very successful at it.

Eventually dude was ripped and had a big fucking ego

"Bro...bro, your girl WANTS me"

Half the time it was just pure bullshit, but, also, half the time he was kinda right. It was weirdly fascinating. Some nights he got into full on fist fights because he was a line stepper and would pull that "your girl wants me" shit with the wrong dude and other nights, he would score with attractive women. Again, very weird.

So, I hadnt seen the dude in a while when he was going through is phase of getting ripped at the gym. We met up after not kicking it for some years and I noticed his whole vibe had changed but what really stood out was the fact that dude was fucking wearing makeup around his eyes.

NOT full on youtube makeup tutorial cake, but some foundation around the eyes. What was funny is that he had stopped using drugs but he still drank like a fish

so imagine a a youngish dude with steve buscemi eyes, drunk while wearing shitty foundation to cover up his shitty, raccoon dark, steve buscemi eyes.

I just remember noticing the fact that he was bad at application and had picked out a shimmery (yes, shimmery) foundation.

So it was

MAN FACE

MAN FACE

MAN FACE

SHIMMERY EYES

MAN FACE

MAN FACE

MOUSTACHE

MAN FACE

CHIN.



I called him out on it.

"Yo, Dave, why you...are you wearing make...you wearing make up Dave?"

"Oh, haha, you got me man. Uh, I'm embarrassed about my dark eyes....ha, so, lets get up on some ladies. Shots?"


Goddamn I am glad I don't kick it with homeboy anymore.

**edit**

Before clicking on the link, I thought this was about some hair spray product for dudes that lost or are losing their hair.

Do the (male) kids these days actually wear make-up like that? Is there an actual market for this?

It's a quality product.
Though I don't really use it, for some reason I can't get a good shave with it, and end up reshaving with a gillette afterward.
I'm also afraid to travel with it, seems like TSA would force me to toss it.

In response to Reply # 29


  

          

It's a well designed and engineered safety razor, the best modern version I've ever seen available.
I have realized that I am not a safety razor person.
Which makes it not right for me, but does not negate the fact that Bevel is a quality product.

In a previous reply, you said "for some reason I can't get a good shave with it." Now we know the reason.

I almost bled to death using the safety razor.... I cut myself everytime i used it.

No matter what I did... i watched videos and erything... After I got the box I realized that the key to the whole thing was the priming oil

so i just went and got some of that and used my gilette and regular shaving cream.. I did buy a good aftershave oil too..

You take the blue pill, the story ends. You wake up in your bed and believe whatever you want to believe. You take the red pill, you stay in Wonderland, and I show you how deep the rabbit hole goes.

At least not here. It's not a safe space for ideas, debate or discussion anymore if what's being discussed goes against the groupthink. Ideas are dangerous. Fuck around and get called a _______phobe or and ______ist, and get shouted down.

Used to clown that shit so hard back in the day, lol.




With that said, these young dudes are putting highlights in their hair, dying it rainbow colors and getting face piercings and tattoos. Only a step away from a little foundation, some mascara, eye shadow and lip liner.

12. "the $10000 question is...is it still "masculine"?"
In response to Reply # 0


  

          

allow me to be old school in thought for a second

is it masculine if a man wears makeup to look more...masculine?

31. "It's actually the most logical definition"
In response to Reply # 26


          

"masculine" is defined by what men do. If men all wore makeup, then it would be masculine.

43. "nah"
In response to Reply # 31


          

the definition you provide eliminates any real meaning from the term

as an application of logic, lets consider that the following would be true under your premise/definition

- write with a pen and you're a male? then its masculine
- breathe through your nostrils and you're a male? then its masculine
- kick dogs as a hobby and you're a male? then its masculine

using that definition makes ANYTHING masculine, and therefore masculine doesn't designate anything in particular

if that is what you believe, then so be it

however, I was under the impression that the point of the term was to delineate a particular action as unique (the counter, if you will to "feminine")

44. "Nouns and Verbs are immutable (don't change). Adjectives do."
In response to Reply # 43
Fri Apr-06-18 10:59 AM by flipnile

          

Words like "Tree" "Jump" "Water" and "Throw" should not change meaning, as they relate to *specific* *objective* things or actions THAT DO NOT CHANGE based on "perspective."

Adjectives like "overweight" "intelligent" "handsome" or "masculine/feminine" can and will changed relative to who's using them.



"masculine" means different things in Asia than in Africa than in North America.

"water" is water everywhere.

46. "sure homie"
In response to Reply # 44


          

but what are you arguing exactly because nothing you said refuts what I said

lets take "bad"

use to mean something negative
later morphed into being something positive also

and *that* is why it isn't nearly used as much anymore

it lost its meaning

you have to consider the context/speaker/audience to be able to understand what is being conveyed

*if* we do that with masculine then the same will (or has already I guess) happen

if what we get out of it is some dude wearing maybelline, sephora and mac and yet still thinking (or being accepted as) masculine and you - or whomever - thinks thats a "win"

then so be it

48. ""Bad" is an adjective. That's in-line with my point."
In response to Reply # 46

Adjectives change. Nouns and Verbs don't.


Here's a question: What definition of "masculine" is the one we use?

Men now?
Men 50 years ago?
Men 100 years ago?
1000 years ago?
1,000,000?


Do you see the logical problem in trying to give a hard definition to a word that is entirely dependent on context?

In response to Reply # 48


          

>RE: "Bad" is an adjective. That's in-line with my point.

YES. that is why I chose it

>Adjectives change. Nouns and Verbs don't.

I never refuted that or even tried to discuss/debate it because it misses the point

>Here's a question: What definition of "masculine" is the one
>we use?
>
>Men now?
>Men 50 years ago?
>Men 100 years ago?
>1000 years ago?
>1,000,000?

1,000,000.

now what?

>Do you see the logical problem in trying to give a hard
>definition to a word that is entirely dependent on context?

wait...

i said:

"you have to consider the context/speaker/audience to be able to understand what is being conveyed. *if* we do that with masculine then the same will (or has already I guess) happen. if what we get out of it is some dude wearing maybelline, sephora and mac and yet still thinking (or being accepted as) masculine and you - or whomever - thinks thats a "win". then so be it"

it seems to me you are repeating my assertion then asking past what i said

what are you going on about?

53. "i think the disconnect is the winning or losing an argument part"
In response to Reply # 49
Sun Apr-15-18 12:03 AM by hardware

          

cause i wasn't really arguing anything in the first place

i was just stating that 'masculine' is subject to change, because technically, any thing a man(noun) does is masculine(adjective) logically. i wasn't interested in making any cultural point and i honestly didn't think i'd get a response.

TBH the fact that you're even a mod here fits squarely within Jag's narrative of OK-sanctioned aggression, bullying, and toxicity. *shrug*
