I have to admit there’s a dimension to this I don’t get. I absolutely agree that whatever makeup you choose to apply is your business and no one else’s. But every single woman in my life, from my mother, to girlfriends, cousins, platonic friends, and my wife has expressed their opinion to me (often disapprovingly) at one time or another about my decisions with regard to my clothing, facial hair, regular hair, etc. I feel very sure this is an experience many other men have also had. It annoys me, but I don’t see it as an issue in my life.

What makes this any different?
