Top 10 Reasons Why Boys Should Not Be Afraid to Wear Makeup

The Top Ten

  1. Boys can look better with makeup on

    I don't find it attractive when men look hypermasculine, dress boring (a.k.a. "dressing straight"), and don't accessorize, but that's just my preference and they can do what they want.

    I love a smoky eye on men, too. Black lipstick and metallic lipstick are great too, in my opinion.

    I'm a girl, and I think guys look SO good with makeup on. But I think they're better with small stuff like eyeliner than eyeshadow over their whole eyelid, just saying.

    Like Billie Joe Armstrong or Gerard Way, I think that they look better with makeup on. But I don't focus on looks in musicians. They're musicians, so I don't care about looks. This is just an example.

  2. Boys are not trying to be girls by wearing makeup

    And girls with short hair are not trying to be boys. There is makeup specifically designed for boys.

    Just because I wear eyeliner doesn't mean I'm trying to be a girl.

  3. It's about self-enhancement

    I'm a straight boy, and I wear eyeliner because I like to. I feel I look better with it on.

  4. Makeup isn't made specifically for girls

    I never thought of it, but it's true. I've never seen anything saying "for women only" or anything of that nature. It's just, for whatever reason, always been assumed that it was for females. But, look at Jeffree Star, he looks fantastic with makeup on, does he not?

    I'm going to halfway disagree with this one. I think makeup was originally made for girls, but guys can still wear it and look great.

    By saying makeup is only for girls is like saying baggy jeans are only made for boys, which is not true. Personal care products are for everyone.

  5. Boys don't look strange with makeup on

    It's dependent on what type of makeup they put on. You're not going to look hideous as soon as makeup touches your face.

    Just put it on. Don't hesitate to wear it.

  6. It's simply a personal choice

    I wear eyeliner because I want to, as do other boys. No one can rule me for it.

  7. It's about personal care

    If you don't want people to see your pimples, just cover them up.

  8. "Boys can't wear makeup" is not a rule

    No one is ruling you for it. You have the right to wear it.

  9. There's nothing wrong with boys wearing makeup

    I don't think anything is wrong with boys wearing makeup. My crush wears it, and he looks really cute. It's time we brought down all the gender bias. Yes, boys can wear skirts, and yes, girls can run a house!

    What do girls think about this? Do you think there's anything wrong with boys wearing makeup?

  10. Some boys may feel happy wearing makeup

    It's what we like. If boys like me want to wear eyeliner, it doesn't bother anyone.

    11. The Newcomers

    There is no technical reason boys can't wear makeup

  12. ?

    Wearing makeup doesn't make boys gay

    In fact some women LOVE a man who isn't afraid to wear makeup and express himself in other ways!

    13. The Contenders

  13. It's okay for boys to do things that are traditionally seen as feminine

    I love when men paint their nails! I'm not sure why more men don't have long hair! I'm not talking just jaw length and slicked back or curled up. I mean clearly long! It looks great! Just look at metal guys with long hair! Majestic!
