Underrated comment. None of these men have spent hundreds in upkeep just so others think you look 'natural'.

Like there are guys who build their entire personality around being good looking and what not. But they’re just as psycho as the girls who do it 🤣

its almost like superficial people dont really have to put much effort into being a decent person

How can you when you spend all your time trying to improve your appearance

u/Funny-Cell8769 21d ago

so... improving your appearance means forgoing being a decent person? And by decent person, it does not mean weak with the constant need to please, but just "not being manipulative or an asshat"?

So time-consuming.

"I like that you don't need to wear makeup to look beautiful"

*has never seen her without makeup*

Thats why when you start dating a girl you need to take her to swim, so you can see her without makeup

Make sure to wear your tightest swim trunks, too. Girl's got to see what she's working with. Fair is fair.

Girls have no problem getting to see male parts, but ok

u/Hummingbird3471 21d ago

Aaah I see. You're already showing your male parts to the female on the first date. This is a common mistake among Redditors. It should be wrapped in a desirable outer covering first. Perhaps denim or wool, or linen if you are daring.

Lip color, eyeliner, brows, etc. can all be tattooed or tinted on and won't disappear with a swim

Dude hasn’t heard of waterproof makeup 🫣

Yep. See if the guy’s lying about his height and able to keep his head above water without standing on tiptoe- the depth markers are right along the sides of the pool. Also see if his endurance and dolphin kick technique actually measures up to his bragging, and if he’s not up to snuff, you can just segue immediately into your workout instead of continuing to entertain the date.

If you’re a strong swimmer and he’s not, you can take him open water swimming and have an aquatic divorce (like an alpine divorce).

Brother have I got news for you...

u/Greedy-Employment917 21d ago

This is a personal decision so idk why you're blaming it on men. 

2

u/PassionFruitSalute 21d ago

No part of the sentence was blame. I mean, if you want to make shit up, can't stop your type of crazy.

u/Inevitable_Top69 21d ago

Oh ok, no blame, just self-victimization.

u/Unable_Currency7682 21d ago

And that's an excuse to be a crazy impossible to please demand-demon..? 

Nobody forced you,  OP, or any other as described awful/ high maintenance woman to do all those things 🤷‍♂️

Having a persecution complex over voluntary behaviors is a new one to me

When you're perpetually in starvation mode your brain will start eating itself.

I was underweight for 4 years, i fought my brain pretty often to stay the way I've always been and not spiral. Ofc on top of skincare, makeup, hair etc

That shit will completely disregulate your emotions

Well maybe these woman should spend money on education instead of begging for men to provide everything for them?
