Women And Their Cosmetic Makeup

[Era Might]

What is it with women putting on makeup at stop lights? A car was behind me at a red light yesterday and the driver was putting on eye liner. I've never seen men shaving in their cars.

I have no idea. I would never do that. I did see a man looking at a Playboy while driving though.

I prefer to go without makeup than to put it on at stoplights ... which is why I'm typically makeup-free.

Is it just a matter of time that they don't finish their makeup before they leave? How long does it take to put on makeup?

[Sojourner]

I presume it is a matter of time. I would think just about anyone would prefer to put on makeup at home to putting it on at a stoplight.

It probably takes 10 min. or so. Probably less if you do it regularly, more if you have several kids distracting you while you are getting ready.

That would certainly be a sight to behold.

I have seen people dressing while driving, pulling shirts over their heads, taking one hand off the steering wheel to put it through a sleeve, etc.

I have also seen people dancing while driving, doing crossword puzzles while driving, and reading newspapers while driving.

We take our lives in our hands with those keys, you know?

Fortunately the driver I saw was at least at a red light, so she wasn't putting on makeup as she was actually driving.

The best thing is when you catch someone singing in their car. If only they could see themselves.

Please don't drive near me then. I usually have my windows down, music up, and am singing.

I am pretty tone deaf.

I am not old enough to drive yet but if I could drive I would not but make-up on....I don't put it on anyways.
Once I saw a person driving well having her dog on her lap, the dog was all over the place. This is sorta off topic but I also saw a guy swinging a ax yesterday while walking down the street.

I'm a little ashamed to admit this, but one time i brushed my teeth while driving.

Are they printing articles in the centerfold these days?

I think the reason why women use makeup is because they have low self estem and arent comfortable with the way God made them. An attractive woman to me is one that is natural and perfectly happy with the way God created them.

Um, I wear makeup to help protect, conceal and calm down my acne. It also makes me feel better about myself because acne isn't very attractive, especially when it is inflamed and irritated.

Makeup, when done right, helps to enhance your natural beauty. Some people are lucky enough to go without makeup all the time and still look great, but some other people may not have such fantastic genes and want to put on some makeup. Don't think that it's just for sad people who have no self esteem.

I don't think you should be making that kind of assumption. Wearing makeup does not necessarily imply that someone is unhappy with how they were created by God.
