On MGTOWforums.com, Marcus20 offers a dire warning for all of his fellow Men Going Their Own Way who may not yet be Going Their Own Way thoroughly enough.
This is a gender war. Some men don’t know there’s a war. But almost every man feels something is wrong.
Some men who know there’s a gender war haven’t identified all of the weapons that are being arrayed against them.
One of these weapons is a wyman’s make-up.
Make-up is an unconventional weapon, and it’s often unrecognized as a threat.
That’s right, fellas. These women will stop at nothing to deceive and control you. Even if that means resorting to (gasp!) eye shadow.
WAKE UP to the MAKEUP!
[I]magine, if you please, a man with his face covered in war paint. Consider the men at the end of Apocalypse Now. Consider the warriors of the Sioux, the warriors in African tribes. Consider modern American soldiers.
Why do warriors wear face paint? The reason isn’t only camouflage. There is a psychological component to the mask.
You see paint on a man’s face– and you immediately and correctly identify him as a threat. But put the same paint on a woman’s face, and your reaction is quite different.
We are so accustomed to seeing women wearing paint that it never strikes us as odd.
Actually, I’m pretty sure if I saw a woman painted up like the dudes in Apocalypse Now I might give her a second look.
But there used to be widespread opposition to women wearing make-up. In Oliver Goldsmith’s Vicar of Wakefield, published in 1766, the vicar vigorously disapproves of his wife and daughters preparing various washes and powders for their faces. The Bible mentions “painted Jezebels.” At one time, make-up on a woman’s face signaled to all that she was a prostitute.
Today, make-up is accepted. Ho hum. Nothing to see here . . . The best weapon is one your enemy doesn’t see.
They call it “concealer” for a reason! For it conceals the dark and evil heart of the modern woman! Or something.
Imagine an average-looking girl, just reaching adolescence. She puts on make-up– and she is attracting the attention of boys, when she wasn’t before. It takes her but a moment to realize they are attracted not to her–whoever she is, she doesn’t know herself– but to her paint.
She concludes that men are attracted by paint. It immediately, and from the beginning of her sexual interactions with men, makes her relations with the opposite sex less real. She is always aware that the paint on her face is manipulating him.
Yeah, I’m pretty sure that “paint” doesn’t have much to do with any of this. I think it might just happen to have something to do with the flood of hormones coursing through the bodies of adolescent boys.
Day after day, for years, for decades, she paints herself as if she is a thing: and she becomes soulless.
That also happens if she puts on cute outfits. If you stare too long at a cute outfit, the cute outfit stares back at you!
The more you think about this, the more you realize that this is terrifying. Imagine if you — a man — painted your face everyday and presented that face to the world as if it’s yours. Immediately, you will feel disassociated from yourself. Immediately: scheming, lying, deceit become easier. Even murder becomes easier.
Er, what?
Roughly 90% of murders are committed by men, and I’m pretty sure very few of them are wearing makeup at the time.
Villains wear masks. Wearing a mask makes it easier to do evil. Darth Vader and even your typical bank robber . . .
The mask allows a woman to act out her evil impulses while telling herself the lie that she herself isn’t doing it.
That’s right. You start by putting on a little lipstick and mascara, and the next thing you know you’re destroying peaceful planets with your Death Star.
It is absurd for a man to allow himself to be attracted by paint.
Better to be repulsed by women who wear make-up. To see them as clowns. To see them as strange masks. To see the mask as the truth of what she has become, after a decade of painting her face: a lie that she wears everyday. Because after years of wearing a mask, you become it.
The same thing happens with other things you wear. After years of wearing underwear, you become underwear! After years of wearing socks, you become a sock! After years of wearing hats, you become a hat!
My niece, age five, recently attended a make-up party for children her age. She now owns a make-up collection. She is five years old and already wears a mask.
Isn’t there something disturbing about that?
Well, yeah, but not for the reason you think.
Look at youtube. There are videos that have millions of views — all about eleven year old girls who use massive amounts of make-up (and time) to make themselves look like Barbie or a doll or a cartoon character.
(And women still tell me: “Just wait — you’ll find someone who shares your interests.” What?)
Actually, I’m pretty sure you won’t find a woman who shares your interests, dude, given that one of your interests is writing posts about how wearing makeup turns women into Darth Vader.
Today we have girls, age five, wearing make-up … I therefore predict an even more soulless horde of wymen in our future. …
I submit that women would be much less evil if they never wore masks. I submit that women would be much more humble as to their true attractiveness and therefore, less entitled, if they never wore masks. I submit that men would be better able to judge who is really beautiful if women never wore masks. …
The first step is to stop being manipulated by paint. Look behind the mask — and the face isn’t there.
Uh, no. That’s not reality you’re talking about here. That’s the movie Eyes Without a Face.
Naturally, the eminently sensible fellows at MGTOWforums.com applaud Marcus20’s lucid analysis of how makeup turns girls and women into Sith Lords.
“Since everything within a woman is a motherfucking lie, it makes sense that the outside would be as well,” writes the aptly-named Womanhater.
ANY twat who claims to be ‘equal’ and yet wears make-up is a fucking hypocrite! The ENTIRE purpose of makeup is to feign sexual arousal and attraction – red lips, blushed cheeks, etc. all signal men on a subconscious level that the twat is sexually attracted to you. This in turn makes the uninitiated blue-pillers in our ranks turn into putty in their hands. The ONLY reason a twat wears make-up is to have an easier time manipulating you or extracting resources from you. Period. Full stop.
MrWombat, perhaps inspired by neo-Nazi nonsense about “blood in the face,” suggests that clever use of concealer can indeed conceal women’s essential dishonesty:
Makeup is crucial to being able to lie face-to-face to someone. Normal people blush when they lie, blanch when they have taken an emotional hit. Foundation conceals that, and women consciously feel foundation to be a mask, a disguise, a defense.
I eagerly await Marcus20’s analysis of the Big Lie that is the Wonderbra.
This post makes me wanna reactivate my The Old Republic account. Damn well I’m a Sith Lord!
The OP uses ‘wymen’ more than once. I am confused, is he:
a) dimmer than a no-watt bulb and doesn’t realise he’s putting the ‘y’ in place of the wrong vowel OR
b) showing evidence of rudimentary satire skills by doing it on purpose
The mind boggles.
Hey!!!! It’s lonesome 2000 lightyears away from Earth where I’m at. I wanna be HURD. Why won’t erm, futrelle approve mah comments?
They gave Sarah Jane a sonic lipstick. Does that count?
Fatass Futrelle is just mad because he’s can’t get any, so he rages and shkes his fist impotently at the PUAs who are taking their pleasure regularly. Fatass Futrelle is probably aiming for a handjob or something, it’s the only this loser will ever get his rocks off.

Cover Girl: IT COVERS YR EVIL!!1!
If your understanding of reality starts to resemble creepypasta, you should perhaps re-examine it.
he’s focusing on the wrong weapon!

(At the very end.)
And yet, I choose to not wear makeup and I have at various times in my life been judged, mocked, and shamed for it. MRAs, continuing the time honored tradition of shitting all over women’s choices, no matter WHAT those choices are.
Apparently, clowns kill.
Damned if you do, damned if you FUCK YOU WOMEN ARE EVIL AND THEY WANT TO DESTROY MEN.
Maybe she’s evil, maybe it’s Maybelline.
Would drag queens make this tool’s head explode?
See, it’s people like this guy that lead to me always having a sort of residual affection for visual kei even though it’s a perfect example of the 90% of everything is crap rule.
“They call it “concealer” for a reason!”
David, I adore your commentary 😀
Regarding this tidbit: “Imagine if you — a man — painted your face everyday and presented that face to the world as if it’s yours. Immediately, you will feel disassociated from yourself… To see the mask as the truth of what she has become, after a decade of painting her face: a lie that she wears everyday.”
I don’t wear makeup every day, and when I do, I don’t always wear the same kinds/same colors/same patterns etc. I do different makeup looks every time. What paint am I doing? Am I a chameleon?
RE: John-Henry
Eesh, even the animals creeped me out. 🙁 I didn’t realize clowns struck me as so creepy…
I was always confused as a child by the whole Ronald McDonald thing. Don’t a very high percentage of kids find clowns scary? At one point I asked my mum if he was a “bad man” because wtf was this creepy looking clown doing going around handing out balloons to children?
“Maybe she’s evil, maybe it’s Maybelline.”
Ooh, I’ve got another one! “Easy, breezy, BEELZEBUB Cover Girl!”
“Get your DEVIL ON with Revlon?”
I imagine all the caps locked words said in a Vincent Price-ish voice. =)
The only clown I remember liking was Oleg Popov – I saw him on my one and only trip to the circus when I was little, and the Moscow Circus was touring. I don’t find clowns genuinely scary, and didn’t as a child. I just find them woefully unfunny (Pratchett sums that up for me) and a bit creepy. Most of ’em, like the ones who go around kids’ hospitals and the like, just seem totally pathetic try-hards.
I have eczema and put concealer on my arms and legs sometimes. IT IS NOT JUST MY FACE THAT IS EVIL
Also, what does this guy think about the sportscasters on ESPN? Evil or not evil?
The ones that aren’t creepy are sort of depressing. You know the feeling you get when someone makes a joke and it’s just not funny at all but they look really hopeful, as if they’ll cry if you don’t laugh? That feeling, but with added cringe factor because of the silly outfit.
Cassandra, I didn’t meet anyone who thought clowns were scary until I was in my early 20’s (so in the mid 80’s sometime). Maybe it wasn’t a thing before that?
A friend and I were at Bergamot Station in LA, a smallish grouping of art studios, and without really paying attention we wandered into a gallery that was showing some of Diane Keaton’s collection of clown paintings. It was sort of dark and we missed the poster advertising the show because we were just chatting and wandering. We found ourselves in a room with probably 3 dozen clown paintings of various sizes, and I thought “Weird” and then I looked at my friend and she had gone completely pale and frozen in place. That’s when I realized the difference between a run-of-the-mill fear of clowns and an actual clown phobia. I had to walk her outside and sit with her until she stopped shaking. 0_0
——–Hang on, what about the ugly man-hating femihags who REFUSE to wear make-up? Are they evil or not? This is just another example of MRAs wanting to punish women for whatever they do.———-
MGTOWers don’t care what you do, because we are finished with women. That’s what we’re MGTOWers. Tata ladies, you’ve pushed u s past caring!
@ clairedammit
See, it was Ronald McDonald that did it! My 8 year old brain put him firmly in the stranger danger category.
