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.
Is it possible to spackle carefully?
It takes skill and dedication.
When I get those frozen and boxed meal things, they never look like the picture on the box when I’m done! MISANDRY!
It is ONLY possible to spackle carefully. I use a framework of chicken wire, and finish with a power sander.
Today I’m not wearing any makeup. Tomorrow evening I will be. Why are women more evil on some days than others?
Is chickenwire strong enough? I found cyclone wire fencing was better.
Good idea, Kittehs’!
Also, I had titanium rods implanted in my eyelids to support my massive false eyelashes.
If makeup would turn me into a Sith Lord, I would wear it all the time. That would be the best shit ever. (Seriously, having a Star Wars fangirl moment over here.)
Holy crap, MKlein, you are so right
Titanium rods! Excellent idea. It’d have to be better than the scaffolding I use to prop mine up. I claim it’s a steampunk look but I don’t think anyone believes me.
Fear leads to anger, anger leads to hate, hate leads to spackling.
@Motty: Yes. Yes, it does look badass. It really does.
And spackling leads to high self-esteem, which automatically makes a woman into a Sith lord.
So then how come when men wear masks and costumes they are super heroes and when women wear masks they are teh evol? I think there is some bias going on there a liddle bit.
Yeah, braveheart war paint and pressed powder are TOTALLY the same thing.
Funny, I always thought women felt pressured to wear make up starting from a very early age in order to live up to the impossible standards of a flawless face!
I thought, as an adult, wearing make up is now a creative expression, in our culture, to improve one’s appearance and dress up!
That’s weird, I thought the pervasiveness of anti wrinkle cream ads being done by 24 year olds sent the message that women are only beautiful if young and flawless, negatively affecting women’s self image. That’s so strange, I never realized that this was really hurting men! Of course! I see it now! The moment I started putting on makeup, I immediately started to feel deceptive, inauthentic, a lie! I came to enjoy the power I had over men! I had a boyfriend once tell me he loved me without makeup. Was that a plea to have me reveal my true self? Was he tired of the constant threatening behavior?
These guys really think women are inhuman. But at the same time, I seriously doubt they know many women who aren’t blood relatives:
“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.”
Why do we have to be humble? How insecure do you have to be to insist a group of people never partake in a ritual that makes them feel good about themselves (sure, some women don’t wear make-up, and that’s cool too. Except these guys don’t seem to think they exists)? They want us insecure, lacking in pride, and completely dependent on them for any source of self-esteem. They want women to ask permission to like themselves — based on whatever they say. He used the word entitled. Entitled to have full control over how we present ourselves to the world is bad? Fuck off, shitlord. What you think of drag queens must be appalling.
“I submit that men would be better able to judge who is really beautiful if women never wore masks. …”
We don’t care if you think we’re beautiful, you little asshole. We’re not a fucking concept in your head.
First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they spackle you, then you win.
Why oh why won’t these men going their own way just go that way already? Sigh.
First they came for the spacklers…
I don’t wear make-up, but I have been getting IPL for hair removal, and started using Latisse in September. My lashes have been officially fabulous since last month. I had an optometrist appointment yesterday and she (yes, it was a make-work optometrist) measured my eye pressure, and it’s dropped since last year. We both think it’s the Latisse, even though I’m now only using it 3 times a week instead of daily.
And clowns are evil and from outer space (yes, I have this movie on DVD):
And yet as soon as they spot a woman without make up they start ranting on about how she is ugly and doesn’t take care of herself. Another lesson in the fucked if you do, fucked if you don’t mentality of the MRM and indeed misogyny in general.
Are those Kardashian Klowns?
That little girl looks like she let Homer Simpson do her makeup.
Cassie, you’re just going to slink back in here?
@Cassandra LOL I originally watched the movie on video, so ages ahead of the Kardashian thing, and never made a connection.
