    This is fascinating! As I understand it, driven by the enlightenment and the industrial revolution, men rejected beauty in favor of rationality and standardization. Men apparently traded in high-heels for a pocket-watch.

      I appreciate It takes a man 5 seconds to get ready vs woman that still feel they have to put full armor on before leaving home.

        yeah but more often than not that full armor is fun! and if you’re not impatient, then taking more time really isn’t that big of a deal

          One of My roommates felt it was an expression of herself and rocked a bold look. Very valid.

          I like The simpler style but I have 0 art sense. Especially when I just wanna get groceries and maybe stop for a donut. I don’t see the need to be kitted up. “Like let’s goo! Your mother is in the car!” Lol

              You have a strong argument. If it’s fun why not. I entirely respect the other side of my position. Its Just not fun to me. Plus I barely wanna look at my face for 5 seconds in the mirror to style my hair. Lol
