Those Lips! Those Eyes! That Stubble! The Transformative Power of Men in Makeup By AMANDA HESS
NYT ^ | OCT. 18, 2016 | AMANDA HESS

Posted on 10/19/2016 2:50:25 AM PDT by detective

My favorite person on Instagram these days is a guy who matches his makeup to his snacks.

His name is Tim Owens, but online he goes by Skelotim, and he is a bald, perma-stubbled man who knows his way around a contour kit. Last week, he posted a video of himself applying dark purple eye shadow, sky-blue eyeliner, fluttery fake lashes and a bold grape lipstick. Then, after shooting the camera a succession of saucy glances, he raised a packaged Smucker’s Uncrustables peanut-butter-and-grape-jelly sandwich, revealing his culinary inspiration for the day’s look. He does this every week. He calls it “Fat Bitch Friday.”

When the NYT is not talking about how wonderful Hillary Clinton is they are talking about how much they love men wearing make up.

Amanda Hess is one sick little puppy in my opinion. Just as sick as these so-called males who feminize themselves.

I remind her and everyone else, Shepard Smith also wears makeup and eyeliner and we all know about him.

Homosexual chic is, not surprisingly, becoming very ‘in.’

Men prancing around in make up has occurred in history before and it is always connected with the debauchery of a culture.

Amanda Hess and Lena Dunham are like two peas in a pod; both mentally disturbed as hell.

The world is becoming a carnival fun house.

Insane...but certainly not fun.

Back before America had collectively lost its’ mind, we viewed all people as image-bearers of God, therefore thought the best and morally right thing to do was dissuade people who exhibited personally and socially destructive impulses against acting on them. We believed that with time they would actually grow up and leave such compulsions in the trash bin of their immature youth. Now, in our age of madness, the obviously insane imagine that life alchemically emerged from non-life-bearing chemicals, that humans therefore are evolving (progressing) up a cosmic elevator toward convergence with the god-substance and males in make-up are evidence of this progress.

We got a catalog in the mail about two weeks ago that heavily featured products for fall hunting, and the models used in the photos were - to us - "exquisitely" groomed (right down to the carefully delineated stubble) to the point of unintentional hilarity. Every one of the men looked alike, and none of them look like any guy I see in the field or at the range… for which I am grateful.

Many of us codgers remember when all the hunting ads showed guys who looked a bit like Mitt Romney* wearing a Jones cap and "Duxbak"-type hunting togs, a pipe jutting from his confident smile, and clean-shaven ruggedness permeating everything. There may have been some well-heeled guys in real life who achieved that look, but I never saw any. Sort of like today.

Reality - who needs it, eh?

*Mitt was born too late- he'd have made a dandy '50's pitch-man, but in these times, he's just a creepy, silver-templed stiff with a nicely-coordinated silver spoon permanently up his GI tract.

Be fair. With the old gay lady being run by little Pinchy, is it a wonder why the company line appreciates feminine men?
