    And most men thank you for that and wish all women were like that.

      Given how prevalent make up is, especially with how many stories i heard of women struggling in the office when they did not put on makeup that specific day, how the behavior of random strangers changed etc. that is not true. There are some men, but definitely no the majority.

        My wife’s opinion is that most of the pressure comes from other women and old men.

        women struggling in the office when they did not put on makeup that specific day, how the behavior of random strangers changed etc.

        It’s simply the difference that’s being noticed, and no one’s really at fault for that, on either side. Any woman who never wears makeup is also never going to get the same ‘are you sick?’ kind of reactions on any given day she doesn’t wear makeup to work.
