i caught u red handed wearing my lip balm

I think lots of people would be surprised at the amount of men, gay and straight who wear make up - I am one of them! Bronzer, kohl, concealer, tinted lip balm, mascara and even on occasions blusher are all worn by gay and straight men I know.

However, I haven't had anyone give it the slightest attention as being different nor odd. I really see no reason why people cannot express themselves however they desire and expect to be treated equally as well as people who are more conservative.

I suppose it's similar to the cross-dressing/ladies undies threads - at the turn of the last century it was actually against the law in the UK (don't know about the US) for women to wear trousers or men's attire - compare that to now! I know it's not against the law for men to wear women's clothes, simply socially... unusual? (I wouldn't say unacceptable as in some areas, like Malaysia, opps :P it isn't that odd), so why still the prejudice? If a guy wants to express himself that way, let him I say.

Wearing make-up is fun, dramatic, exciting, sexy, something that women have known for years. For me it’s just one of the many ‘femme’ things I do, and I’m proud of it!

Watch this - every man should wear foundation!
