My wife goes crazy with this, gets every last little thing together. I do some, but not like she does. I'm not sure they want all the straw wappers and shit on top of the pile of places anyway.

My test for people is dressing plainly, by which i mean, not excessively well. I wear simple and plain clothing and have a plain appearance.

In my opinion, jewelry and cosmetics and all that are all very problematic. The whole feminism movement is largely about the fact that women don't want to be objectified, but then they objectify themselves, i argue. By wearing makeup, you're making yourself a "pretty thing", one whose superficial appearance is judged, which is arguably more problematic than helpful. Like, if you're a woman and talking to a man and you're overly pretty, you subconsciously think that they only talk to you because you look pretty, and that makes you suspicious of them and a little bit angry, which hinders the discussion and makes honest exchange of opinions a bit more difficult. If you dress plainly, don't wear makeup, earrings or any of that, then you can't think that they're only interested in your superficial appearance that they're interested in, so that means they talk to you because of your personality, which i think puts you in a better mood and makes the talking more worth-while. It leads to higher-quality exchanges.

Wow I've always had this feeling with people caring too much about their appearance and you just summed up pretty good why. Never realised this is the reason

I'm married, but I find simple beauty like you describe far more attractive than lots of makeup or other things some women feel to the need to do.

makeup is self care: on a man or a woman… too much makeup, like anything else being too much, is performative and lacks taste… taste is an appropriate amount of something applied in a thoughtful manner

you wouldn’t wear a suit to the pub, but it never hurts to not wear ripped jeans and a shirt that’s 2 sizes too large… just like you probably wouldn’t wear an entire face of makeup to a weekly drinks with friends, but you might wear some mascara or concealer (doesn’t matter if you’re a guy or a gal these things make you look great either way)
