Buffy ,'Get It Done'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Okay, sparked by something I saw elsewhere: Do guys care if women are keeping in shape for aesthetics, wearing makeup, nice clothes, tweezing brows, shaving legs, dressing hair?
If I thought that guys didn't care, I'd be even more unkempt than I am now. For real. *I* don't give a shit about my eyebrows.
Huh. I tweeze my eyebrows because otherwise they drive me nuts. Basically, I dress and groom for me.
That poor, poor squirrel.

Or do women do it to and for themselves?
Hardly an auhority here, but I do think that there's a mix of both at work. Really, a combo of wanting to be attractive to men, competitive with other women, looking good for one's own sake, and taking advantage of the societal perks given to people who make an effort to look good.
Do guys care if women are wearing matching underwear? I always thought that was a girl thing, that guys were indifferent in general.
Huh. I always thought women wore matching underwear ONLY for men, and that on an average day where nobody would see them undressing, it was whatever undies were clean and at the top of the pile of laundry you never seem to put away.
I have these things all backward, it seems.
I've never known a guy worth keeping who cared. I found that the ones who said, "You should wear lipstick" or whatever were interested in dictating other parts of my life as well.
The real question is, are guy squirrels turned on by girl squirrels in human drag?
Basically, I dress and groom for me.
God, really? If I were dressing and grooming for only me, I wouldn't wear makeup ever, and all my clothes would be selected for comfort, not fashion.
DH thinks I'm at my most adorable when I think I look like crap -- hair at least 2 weeks past it's dye-date, no makeup, bags under my eyes, etc etc. I clean up only for myself.

Oh, come ON!
How could they NOT be?
