"Hey, Hondo...you're totally slaying it today with your lipstick, mascara, eye shadow, foundation, blush, and bronzer."

[vpintheak]

Gag and barf.

This started a long time ago. Back in the early 2000’s, boys/men were being told that women didn’t like chest hair. Many of my son’s friends (teenagers) shaved/waxed their chests. My son was embarrassed that he had chest hair in his teens. I told him that women really like chest hair, it makes a man look so much more masculine. The emasculation of men started then, with the ads on TV making men (particularly White men) look stupid and useless. Men, please stand up for your masculinity!! Women LOVE masculine men! (And yes, I’m aware that the men on this board are far more masculine than the Nancy-boys in Liberal-land)

Something similar. I had to cut my long hair for work, and the girlfriend dumped me and went with ‘Heavy Metal Goldilocks, trying to look tough’.

[real saxophonist]

That same girlfriend wanted to put eye liner on me one time.

Nope.

[RoseofTexas]

WOW! Would never have guessed that our beautiful nation would turn so quickly into a Sodom and Gomorrah! GOD HAVE MERCY on this nation!! Please Lord rain down revival on our land once more..PLEASE!!! Stop the madness!

[Vigilanteman]

I’ve got enough Native American DNA that I am simply unable to grow chest hair. OTOH, I am also not likely to go bald.

'Almost 40 years ago I had a girlfriend leave me for a guy who wore makeup. He was a wanna be heavy metal rocker who was sort of going for the Alice Cooper look'

Well, just picture what they probably both look like now and what they probably do to eke out a living, and you'll get a good laugh out of it. LOL I used to live with a girl back in the 80's who was pretty smokin'. She split on me because we were oil and water. Well, not too many moons ago, I was going over my credit and background history and her name popped up, showing that she'd lived in my old hometown (not true - she was scamming early on). Out of curiousity, I found her page on Facebook, and my God, there is two of her now. LOL So, what harbor ya been hiding in, Petunia? *chuckle* On top of it, she's single again and working some booth at a truck plaza somewhere. Well, it must suck to be you.

[Georgia Girl 2]

Because nothing screams alpha male like a little powder and lipstick. 😆

[gloryblaze]

Well, Chap-stick is lip balm, I guess....

[Delta 21]

Well, they’re all fags so.......

[IndispensableDestiny]

My makeup comes in a compact, in three colors. Green, black, and brown. I do put on moisture lotion first, helps in removing it after the hunt.

[BuffaloJack]

Real men don’t wear cosmetics.

[setter]

I remember watching Mad Max II mid 80’s? and the bad guys with the wild hair and tat’s all over and thought we would never get to that.

I was wrong in spades.

[animal172]

And the femininezation of the American male continues.

[laplata]

I think Maddow has an Adams Apple.

[laplata]

That’s a girl. No Adam’s Apple.

[setter]

Guys should never wear cowboy boots with their jeans tucked inside as first guy on the left.

[Ron H.]

Well a fag is going to a fag no matter what.
