How come women ended up wearing make up and not men? Men in Egyptian, Roman and other ancient cultures wore make up in an attempt to look better, but in modern societies, men don't generally wear make up. Some men need a bit of help!! ;-)

Some men DO wear make up. Not a lot but some. I think it is the rise of the working class. Maybe in the 18th century the upper classes wore wigs, make up etc but with the rise of the working class from serfdom I think they carried with them a "no-bull" attitude regarding this sort of thing. Whilst some men and women try and become made up dolls of the middle and upper classes I think many see make up and fashion as daft. Myself included (I don't like make up on women either though).

I'm a man. And I wear make-up when no one is looking j/k! ;p

I am a masculine man with long hair and a short beard and mustasche. I do wear a little make up, and I do not believe anyone notices. I like A little face power keeps the shine off, a little dark red lipstick and blue eye shadow applied lightly to upper lids. I do not want it to appear that I am wearing make up, but like to be a bit provocative. Notice pictures of men in fashion ads. Do you think their lips are naturally that red? Since we think men do not wear makeup, people do not notice unless the make up is extreme.
