Men are offended when...

women apply make-up when on a train... Well, some men are.

One man said:

'I think once or twice I just stared at the person thinking that they would eventually notice and feel embarrassed. That never happened, it's something for someone's private space - their bedroom or bathroom. So to find myself sitting on a train and then suddenly inside someone's bathroom is very unwelcome'.

Another said:

Grooming is just not a suitable activity for a train, any more than leaky earphones, or bodily noises... make-up just falls into the same category of behaviour.

Personally, I've never had an issue with women putting make-up on while on public transport.

 

That's weird. Why? I mean maybe if it was heavy powder or something, because that could get on people or on the seats or whatever. But otherwise I dont see what there is to be annoyed about. I think people should just mind their own business if what other people are doing doesnt effect them at all.

 

I can't see any reason to be offended by this. I think people try too hard to find things to complain about.

 

This sounds very cultural to me. As in British cultural, coupled with a huge age gap. These comments were from older people.

 

Why even waste your time posting on it then?

 

What has that got to do with catching a train? It was about irksome train etiquette!!! Honestly! Some people make me want to smash my head against a wall!!!

 

I think I would be offended if they weren't contouring properly or matching correct foundation to their skin tone. I mean it's 2018 and there are thousands of make up tutorials on YouTube. Buy some decent products and brushes and work that shit. Or don't if make up is not your thing. Or use tons of make up to achieve that "natural" look so many men like and think actually requires less make up then it does.

 

Exactly, i never understand why people post just to say basically they don't want to post.

 

I suppose it's not as bad as people who 'like' pages on Facebook, just so they can let the page they hate, know that they hate them in comment section whenever post something new.

 

Seriously. 99.99999999 percent of men could care less about women putting on makeup on a train.

 

Exactly! Never did I think someone would try to bring politics into this. @Armalite Rifle needs to get a girlfriend or travel the world or go to a concert or at the very least play a game in Sandbox. Do something fun. No need to be obsessed with politics!

 

Aye, mate. For queen and country! And also, I like your 357 day streak, can we switch?
