No - but I wouldn't wear mascara either.

Yeah!

Vanity is for losers. I think most girls look just fine with no makeup.

Makeup is not magic. Like I said, it accentuates what you have. Of course if you have nothing worth accentuating, it is no good.

Were they idealized or could they afford to be drawn as well as eat lots?

Depends on the job.
BUT, I never go wearing make-up, do you?

Exactly. If you are trying to impress, you put your best foot forward. That is why I say that while the girls may be ok without makeup, since they want to impress the guys, boss, etc, etc, it is necessary.

As a guy, not at all unless you consider getting my eyebrows waxed and nails manicured once in a while.

I've gotten jobs with a five day shadow, and jeans on. Probably wouldn't have if I went wearing a suit.

Really?? Eyebrows waxed? manicure?
To each his own, but are you SURE you don't wear just a little bit?

Like you said before, depends on the job. If it is at McDonnalds, sure. If you want a job in say management, probably not.

Yes, really. Wife felt the eyebrows were too close together so while I was getting a manicure by the large boobed woman, why not the eyebrows? And yes, I am sure I didn't wear any makeup and I haven't to this date. BTW, does Halloween count?

I don't know about disgusting, but most women look better without makeup than with. Fake boobies look ok if they're installed right and not too big, but I still don't like the way they feel.
