Haha! *thumbs up*
I like it.
Agree.
Infinite WIN!
i know!
this is very good point
we don’t all think it’s okay to lie and if u think that we do then ur sexist but yes if ur not at least partially gay like i am u probably do and she still came out pretty!
Wait – what?
… However I did pick out (of that intelligible mess): ‘… she still came out pretty!’
… Right. Ever heard of ‘Beauty is only skin deep’?
You’re completely gay then?
2nd
btw.. Finally something original on this lame site.
I always love when people comment on how lame everything is on these sites. If you think it’s so lame, I’m curious to know why you keep coming back. No one’s forcing you, I’m sure, so your comment baffles me.
Theres someone standing behind him with a magnum
…forcing him to read “lame” lols and making him rofl at gunpoint.
third lol
Hell yeah. False advertising!
Sexist much?
Bitter over the truth much? In denial over reality much?
Denial much?
Why do you think she does this to herself? For fun? No, because men expect this sort of thing. They find it “hot.” Women want to be loved. So they do crazy things to garner attention.
I’ve re-read your post a few times, and I still fail to see your point.
You seem to be operating under the assumption that men *don’t* want to be loved. Or at least that whatever deception is implicit to painting one’s face or surgically improving on one’s genetic blessings is somehow more acceptable than the deception inherent in the equally crazy deceptions men engage in, with (arguably) the same motive.
Also, at the point that you assert “she does it to get attention” you’re more or less admitting that she does it “for fun” – not in this woman’s case, as a celebrity’s beauty is a marketable commodity, but for non-celebrity women I’d that the goal behind “getting attention” is that they like the attention.
Meeting actual women in real life would help you with this misconceptions.
And yeahhhh… men lie to me because they want “love.” The deep emotional bonding love like that betwe- … no. Wait. They don’t. They lie to get in bed.
Meeting actual men in real life would help you with this misconception. the fact that men have lied to you to get you into bed doesn’t in any way disprove anything I said – except in as much as you might have to admit that the genders in general develop different ideas of what constitutes “love.”
I know several “women in real life,” and come to think of it most of them don’t spend a great deal of time on makeup, and seem to do fine in both the “love” and “getting men and women) in bed” departments.
Also, I doubt women wear makeup because they seek “the deep emotional bonding like that between (however it was you intended to finish that sentence).” That sort of connection isn’t built on cosmetics, and all but the most deluded of women would understand that.
What it *does* get you is, as someone else said, attention.
(The textbox is weird for me, so it cuts of my comment when I try and type it, but that won’t stop me. Hahaha!)
I’m pretty sure most guys will admit that there is making love and love. In my experience, when men lie, they’re mostly likely trying to have sex with you. Honestly is something they’ll give you in exchange for actual love. So, I don’t disagree with different ideas about love, but you guys also have different, even opposite standards for it as well.
I could argue that I’ve seen what you’ve seen and a lot of the opposite, so moving on.
Attention, yes. It’s that thing that happens before you meet people.
It’s why someone talks to you instead of walking by.
It’s the start to -any- kind of relationship. Getting their attention?
Fact of the matter is, if the guys repeatedly walk by the girl with the naturally pretty eyes for the exotic look of the woman with the nicely done smokey eyes, the first girl is probably going to start wearing the smokey eyes herself.
You can replace smokey eyes with the ascetically pleasing quality of your choice: The thinner girls, the ones with bigger boobs, the ones with longer hair, the ones wearing high heels, the ones with flashier jewelry, etc. etc.
So do we wear the smokey eyes to achieve deep emotional bonding? Yeah. Not through make up, of course, but to get and often keep a guy’s attention we do.
That’s a poor logic. You want a guy’s attention, you’re not obligated to stand there “looking pretty” ’til he bothers to stop and talk to you. You want his attention, you can always initiate the encounter yourself, just like you’re expecting him to do.
I don’t condemn makeup, spa treatment, carefully-styled hair, cosmetic surgery, expensive clothes, or high heels. I don’t go for them personally (and my dating history reflects that) but I won’t try to argue that my own aesthetics are any less superficial. But it’s still superficial, no matter how you look at it, and I refuse to accept that women lack agency in this institution.
Biologically, she does have a point.
Men are more attracted to younger women because younger women tend to be more fertile.
Wider eyes (eyeliner) contribute to this as do blush and foundation (the appearance of flawless skin). Lipstick makes the mouth look more plump (skin loses elasticity as you age and you lips do shrink)
High heels attract a man because they make a woman’s leg look longer and more flexible which also gives to the illusion of youth.
These are all things men have been searching for since the dawn of the human race and now we can make ourselves look artificially younger so we do. Women are biologically wired to seek an older male and make themselves appear younger in the hopes of doing so.
It’s biological, not psychological.
For the initial attraction it’s biological, I should have said. After that it’s everything else: compatibility, sense of humor, intelligence, whatever you are personally looking for in a mate.
No, she does not. The drive to seek a mate is biological. The drive to seek an older male/younger female mate is (arguably) biological. Fashion choices are not biological, they’re the result of an active choice.
Also, your response does nothing to address most of my comment – a man might “walk by” a girl who lacks sufficient makeup, but a woman (at least in the contemporary U.S.) is not required to stand around waiting for a man to notice her. Granted, looks are an asset when taking a more active role in seeking a mate, but the description of men “walking by” implies that it’s all the gentleman’s choice.
Besides which, from a “biological” perspective, men have reasons to lie as well. Lying about fidelity helps a man to secure a mate, while sleeping around allows him to more reliably pass on his genes. Lying about his status and income allows a man to seem like a more desirable mate (a stable cargiver and provider). An argument based on biological tendencies does not constitute a defense of a practice.
Superficial, hormone-driven men do this to women. Stupid women who are attracted to superficial, hormone-driven men comply, making them equally as stupid and irrelevant. Let them both suffer!
I don’t expect any goddamn thing of the sort.
So women think it’s wrong yet will do it for men anyway?LOL Good luck on finding a good man by being something you’re not. Of course later on she’ll just say it’s the guy’s fault because of course women are never in the wrong. *sarcasm off* BTW women dress to impress and compete with other women more than they do it to get love/attention from men.
What I find funny with about your post is that women do “that” to themselves for each other, not men. All one has to do is LISTEN to women, which I do, when they think no one can hear them, on a regular basis.
Oh, and for the record, women are the one’s who don’t know how to communicate. If they did, they would actually answer the questions that are asked of them without lying.
OK, let’s observe your so-called “truth.”
Silver earring – Women have been wearing earrings since before Biblical times. In fact, the oldest proof we have of earrings is the carvings of MEN in ancient Persia.
Fake tan – That is Kim’s natural coloring.
Airbrushing – Usually done by men who do it for a living, Kim had nothing to do with it.
Couture clothing – Most people with money wear ‘em, men or woman. Big deal.
Breast implants – Probably natural, and enhanced by airbrushing.
Makeup – Another ancient custom that has been around.
Extensions – Her hair is most likely long, not fake.
Good try though.
The point is that she doesn’t actually look like that. The big thing is the makeup. She’s basically lying. Just another double standard that’s full of BS, like how uncool it is for a guy to actually point this out. Well, screw it, I don’t care. I agree with the picture and think that it pointing out women’s lies about their actual appearance is full of win.
Yet if most men see women without makeup–totally at odds with how they are used to seeing women look, particularly when they’re supposed to be looking “hot”, as in “Playboy”–they are the first to point out how ugly and un-hot they are. Double-standard much? ::sigh:: I get so tired of the cognitive dissonance most people live with, forcing me to point out the difference in the reality inside their heads, and Reality.
I’ll take a girl without makeup over a fake bimbo like Kim Kardashian any day.
And I know you said “most men”, but what I’m trying to say is maybe women need to stop trying to look good for assholes who don’t appreciate it, and instead find a real man who can see their beauty with or without makeup.
I suppose I can’t argue with that.
But, it won’t have an effect on your actions either so the point is moot. Most women will chase after assholes because they have a martyr or savior complex. “I can change him.” Bah. You can’t even change yourselves.
Found one, thanks for the advice, tho’. Doesn’t stop me from commenting on the collective culture that has arisen around me. Doesn’t stop many men from SAYING how much they hate makeup, like my last relationship (before my spouse, that is), saying how they like “natural women”, etc. Then he turns right around one day when Pam Anderson is on the TV and says how hot he thinks she is. Oh. My. Effin’. God. Really? That’s “natural” and un-madeup, huh?
Obviously she’s not “natural,” but that’s hardly the point, now is it?
The argument *isn’t* that makeup is unattractive, merely that it’s deceptive.
If it didn’t evoke attraction, there’d hardly be a point to the argument, now would there? Men would say (and mean) “I hate makeup” and women would have no motive to embellish their appearance for the sake of male attention (unless she just enjoys wearing makeup, the same way some women – and men – I know just love doing hair). The entire practice would already have fallen by the wayside without much debate.
But men do find the end result attractive, and so the practice persists. But men can still observe that a) “You’re not really as pretty as you’ve made yourself seem,” and b) “making yourself up thus is a (minor) form of deception.” The fact that pretty much no one is that “pretty” without some helo is a distinct (if related) issue. I’m sorry your ex was taken in by the lie, but that doesn’t make it any less of an illusion.
None of this is to say that women are bad for wearing makeup, or that men are in any way excused for the crazy stuff they do. But deception and insincerity are a part of our culture, and as far as I can tell it’s pretty much ubiquitous in all but the forms it takes.
“Obviously she’s not “natural,” but that’s hardly the point, now is it?” Yes, yes i is, it’s EXACTLY the point. To say one likes natural and unmadeup and then to say you desire the person who (at the time) was THE most UNnatural and MOST madeup person on the planet, is, in effect, either LYING or FOOLING ONESELF. Either way, get real.
“But men do find the end result attractive, and so the practice persists. But men can still observe that a) ‘You’re not really as pretty as you’ve made yourself seem,” and’ b) ‘making yourself up thus is a (minor) form of deception.’”
Thank you; you’ve made my point with the 1st sentence. The practicehas persisted because men LIKE THE RESULT. They desire it. They can whine all they want that it’s “a *minor* form of deception” [emphasis my own], but don’t try to act like it’s a sucker punch! It’s expected in our culture. It’s not on par with, “No, honey, I played poker with the guys last night . . . no, I’m sure that lipstick on my collar and the glitter on the lap of my pants isn’t mine”. It’s not even on par with telling a potential date that you’re a neurosurgeon when you work in a body shop.
Those are intentional MISDEEDS, harming another person with whom you should be building a trust. Putting on cosmetics is presenting your best face to the world, but it’s still YOUR FACE. Makeup can make a wondrous difference, but IN PERSON, one is still going to see past the makeup to a person’s pizza face or thin lips.
Now, cosmetic surgery, THAT is more than enhancement….that could
truly be considered a lie. Not that I generally have a problem with it.
Some people need it to be functional, self-esteem-wise.
But it does commit a workaround on evolution, doesn’t it?
Oh no – putting makeup on is also a deed, and if you’re applying a moral weight to honesty, then it could be argued as a misdeed. I’m not much more honest for dressing up like a fireman and rescuing cats from trees than if I went that extra two inches and verbally proclaimed myself to be a fireman.
I really don’t care much about the distinctions between makeup and cosmetic surgery, even as it applies to evolution; sure, you might be glossing over some congenital defects, but if you can put together the scratch to afford he surgery then you’re probably doing something right. So really it just causes evolution to select for a different value. And from a perspective of honesty, it’s really only a matter of degree.
Personally, I’m all for it – ladies, prop up your self-esteem with makeup, flattering clothes and elective surgery; I’m all for it, and it doesn’t really affect me at all, But don’t pretend that insincerity is a sex-linked trait.
Also, there’s a difference between hypocrisy and self-delusion. And there’s a difference between being personally or philosophically opposed to “artificial” beauty and admitting that the end result is attractive. I never said that a made-up appearance was a “sucker punch,” nor did I attempt to place it on par with compounding philandering with deception.
But when someone points out the issue, its equally disingenuous to say it’s men’s fault for reading Playboy.
Of *course* men find it attractive, or you’d think everyone would’ve stopped bothering years ago. You can’t use the effectiveness of the ruse to justifu its continued existence. By that logic “no honey that lipstick on my collat isn’t mine” could be justified by the logic of “Because of that lie, we’re still married” – a situation that (depending on the marriage) no amount of honesty miht have salvaged.
I’ll admit the difference in level of deception, but if the ends justify the means then I feel compelled to point out that the stakes are higher as well.
Or a man who thinks they’re beautiful no matter what they look like, and does not dwell on physical appearance.
I like the way a woman looks when she first gets out of bed in the morning. Screw all that damn paint and primp.
Remember guys! Don’t go to the gym and work out because then you’d be lying too! I bet you guys brush your hair sometimes too! That is a total lie, you’re trying to make us believe that you just wake up with your hair like that?! And showering and deodorant, leading us to believe your natural body doesn’t smell? ALL LIES!
Thank goodness so many men are so honest!
Ha! Bravo Cerie, bravo!
LOL, nice try brushing your hair and using deodorant aren’t not even close to fake eyelashes, makeup, hair extensions,etc….nice try though.
Incorrect!
A guy who goes to the gym alters his physique; he actually looks like that – no deception.
A guy who bathes regularly *doesn’t* smell (plus there’s the matter of basic health & hygiene) – no deception.
Brushing one’s hair isn’t really deceptive unless one contrives to seem as if the look comes naturally.
On a related subject, I would like to point out that “silver earrings” and “couture clothing” are a little out of place on this caption (and it’s easily arguable that the references to salon visits and spa treatments are as well); there’s nothing inherently dishonest about the jewelry or clothes, nor the results of spa treatments. (unless, of course it’s all faake jewelry, etc.)
It helps fill up the image, which I suppose helps underline the point, but it’s ironic for a caption commenting on honesty.
She’s not “lying.” Lying would be saying “I’m 5′8″ when I’m not not or “I’m a doctor” when I’m not. Putting on make up isn’t “lying”, and it’s immature to call it such because you know damn well that you’d choose an airbrushed barbie-doll over a “natural” woman any day.
Because women take pride in their appearance doesn’t justify men lying. Does it emotionally hurt you when a woman takes off her make-up or clothes? Does it emotionally hurt you when a woman cheats on you and lies about it?
There’s a big difference.
No frickin’ body knows what her “natural coloring” is, not even her. That goes for skin, hair, lips, eyes and God only knows what else. And yes, her boobs are very, very fake. Please get over yourself.
Get over YOURself. Her dad, her mom, her sisters–ALL look ARMENIAN. Her skin and hair–and more than likely, eyes–ARE that color. I had the misfortune to lose the remote one night and watch an ep of the reality show she’s on. They did a photo shoot, in bikinis, in Mexico. IIRC, those breasts had an awfully realistic jiggle. I don’t care how much one spends, ARTIFICIAL breasts don’t move like that.
Just because they’re pushed up for death, crying bitter tears to get themselves into this head shot, doesn’t mean there’s not an artificial means used to hoist ‘em up there.
In this particular case, that is. I can’t see below them to be able to tell if it’s a corset, or a photo shoot “grip” . . . do they have grips on photo shoots?
good lord I just clicked on this to see what people were saying. Okay people can argue all they want-its not going to change that this type of woman is over glorified…anyone see the pics of her un airbrushed?
As long as certain men want their young nubile women who either have unrealistic chests or waists …this is what happens.
Does anyone have any idea how it is to have an eating disorder and see this on tv, magazines, billboards, the internet, the front of books, ads, movies..well, every form of media you can possibly think of…its more difficult than you can imagine. You even have young Asian women, naturally small by genetics, starving themselves to be a size zero.
The hair comment by naoyusimi is very true. If men liked natural then Megan Fox wouldn’t have a job.
Denial? Who, upon seeing a woman with no makeup and without most of these accountrements, is the first to say how ugly or butch she looks? Usually–although not exclusively–a male. Face it, boys–most of you do not like natural. If you did, I would never see comments about body hair on women. That’s natural, but gods forbid a woman not remove every single hair from her body, right?
Women judge other women’s looks more than men do. Hell look at all these awards shows in hollywood. They make a bigger deal out of what dress the women wear than who won the award for acting.
More? More as in “more often” or “more harshly”? I think it depends on the individual. I’ve seen women who are cutting, and men who are as well. Being fair and forgiving in judgement of others is not exclusive to one gender or the other.
Troll much?
Haha! so it’s all cool for women to point out double standards and win sympathy, but as soon as a guy does it then it’s sexist?
Yep, sounds about right.
I’m with ya brother!
actually I’m a chick and I completely agree with you.
I don’t know one female who self-identifies as a “chick”
Nice try, dude.
Actually, I know a couple girls that self-identify as chicks. And they’re pretty in tune with their feminist sides.
I do. I also enjoy chickadee as well. I also use the word c*nt. GASP! I must not really be a female! *rolls eyes*
Urrrh? You must not know a lotta women.
I know lots of women, and I NEVER hear them refer to themselves as “chicks”.
Never.
I have heard, depending on the age group–not so much gender–of the speaker, people refer to OTHERS as chicks.
There you go.
Just because you never heard it, it doesn’t mean it doesn’t happen.
Oh, I’m certain that’s true. But I’d say it’s pretty frickin’ rare for a woman to refer to herself as a “chick”. [what do fluffy baby chickens have to do with women, anyway?]
I get you there. I know women who use the word, but I never did for that reason. I never got how it got started. I don’t think it’s offensive, but last I checked, I wasn’t covered in soft yellow feathers. LOL
I confess – I refer to myself as a “chick” all the time.
I dunno why. It slides off the tongue easier than “girl” or “woman” I guess.
I also refer to guys as dudes, so…
Not like you can expect any guy bashing women for basically beautifying themselves FOR him to know anything about them.
That is exactly the crap SOME women try to pull.
Assuming much?
Who says women do this for men? I think the fakery’s done for other women and for the woman herself AT LEAST as much as for men. I’ve never heard a man pull a woman’s appearance to pieces the way we do it to ourselves.
And I’ll be honest, if airbrushing’d make me look as good as Kim, then bring it on
that has to be the most ridiculous view point i have ever read. if you have never heard of a man trashing a woman, maybe you should venture, i dunno, outside, read a history book or perhaps even go as far as to turn these machines known as televisions.
women don’t do this kind of crap like it’s scrap booking or knitting, it’s not a part time hobby to pass a sunday afternoon.
if they do it for themselves, it is to feel good about themselves, and that perception of what looks good is created by media and that certainly isn’t created by aunt b’s bingo circle. if they do it for other women, it’s for competition.
what it boils down to is women do this stuff for us guys and we generate the demand for it, so it creates the supply.
p.s. when guys say they like “natural” they actually mean they want women to “naturally” look like they rolled out of photoshop.
I’ll agree with you halfway there. i know some guys who’ll say horrible things about a woman’s appearance (especially if she’s out of earshot), all but making her out to be a sideshow freak while I’m standing by saying, “I really don’t see what the problem is. She’s not really my type but she’s pretty easy on the eyes.”
But I will say that in my experience women have been the harsher critics. Particularly since they’re much more inclined to do it to the other woman’s face.
Also, I don’t see anywhere in victoriporn’s post that implied that “beauty” was a hobby like scrapbooking or knitting, only that they do it to win the approval of other women and themselves as much as to win the approval of men.
And when I say “natural,” I mean it. Though I’m obviously not representative on my own, I know many guys who prefer a more “real” look. The image portrayed above is a standard of beauty, but hardly the only one.
Hey, I’m really glad that you as a “guy” feel qualified to tell me exactly why I as a chick make an attempt to take care of myself.
Women are vicious. When I started hanging out with a group of guys, I actually let myself go somewhat and none of the guys cared at all. That’s because other women will tear you apart if you let yourself slide at all; it’s their way of battling their own insecurities.
I wear make-up because I have a semi-professional job, and I think make-up helps a woman look “polished” and “finished.” For the same reason I wear suits and suitjackets.
And if I wear bras that make my figure look a little better than it does naturally, so what? It makes me feel good about my appearance and it certainly doesn’t hurt with the male population.
Nope, Victoriporn is exactly right.
I agree totally with victoriporn and Sparkles.
We girls are RUTHLESS. Even I myself find myself commenting on the other girls in my classes when they don’t wear makeup. Not necessarily bitchy comments but I’ll definitely notice it. Whereas pretty much all the guys I know wouldn’t even notice a bit if a girl didn’t put makeup on, and if they do they genuinely don’t care.
Thank you.
Why is this walking sperm depository “famous” again? Oh, yeah. A PORNO TAPE.
Actually I think it’s primarily because Daddy is a famous lawyer, isn’t he?
I wish more men spent half this amount of time on their own looks
I believe those men are homosexuals.
Lol, almost. You mean metrosexuals.
Crab people, crab people…
No, FBR was right. The “metros” are just in denial.
contrary to popular believe, women like it when guys shower. they just happen to be more polite about telling you how that shirt with the pizza stains looks just as nice the 4th day in a row you wear it. at least to your face.
Uh wearing makeup, fake tans, etc….are way different than a guy takes a shower and clean clothes.
I don’t know what women you’ve been talking to, but I’ve never met one who was that polite.
That being said, I don’t *think* anyone here is arguing against basic hygiene.
…
More relevant to the point of this thread, lots of men spend just as much time on their appearance, but expressed in different ways – time at the gym for example, which might lead to the aforementioned need for a shower.
No thanks. I have better things to do than stay in the bathroom putting all that **** on morning.
No, there are already enough men that are pussies.
How did she get famous? was it from Disaster Movie?
Her dad was a lawyer/attorney/whatever in the OJ Simpson trials that lasted 49086570653 years. Her mom divorced him, married Olypian Bruce Jenner, father of Brody Jenner from The Hills *worst show evar* and they have a brady-bunch-style family. she also was married to a rap producer, and has banged several rap artsist and football players since. even without all the money, her butt-waistline ratio is almost a scientific wonder.
Meh, and if she didn’t have all of them no man would even look at her.
Guys are such hypocrites. They get self-righteous about women using beauty aids but wouldn’t stop to spit on a woman who doesn’t spend $10,000 a year on them.
good, ’cause i doesn’t want mens to spit on me!
lol
I love how any woman who is fat and ugly hates any woman who is less fat and ugly for being “fake”. You are not supposed to be huge, ask your doctor.
So true.
I’m not perfect, I’ll admit it. But I’m not UGLY.
I do, however, call it like I see it. If I spent an hour and a half on my face and hair, I would look different than I do on a day to day basis.
When you take it beyond that because you can afford to have someone at your beck and call for your every aesthetic need, you are, in fact, fake. That doesn’t mean she isn’t attractive otherwise- I actually don’t know, because I don’t pay attention.
But being HONEST does not automatically make one fat, ugly, and jealous.
And the people bitching that its such a double standard because guys don’t want fake women but won’t look at slobs… how about taking the happy medium? There IS such a thing as taking care of yourself, taking pride in your appearance, and not have to have everything replaced with silicone.
First you talk about “every aesthetic need”, as if it’s just hair and makeup; but then you end up talking about “everything replaced with silicone”. I hope you’re not still talking about the photo, because, as another has already pointed out, her breasts are real. I don’t know about any other areas on her, but I don’t think she’s had very much in the way of plastic surgery. I imagine eventually, if she stays in the whatever-list celeb spotlight, that she’ll have plenty o’surgery, like her mom. But not so far.
What the hell made you think she was fat? For all you know, she could be a size two girl. She’s probably hotter than your girlfriend, if you even have one.
I’m fairly sure the original commenter has little to no contact with real people, judging by the type of post he/she/it put up.
I’m fat, and I like Kim. Always have. I don’t care what a woman does to her body, it’s her choice completely.
And btw, fat does not equal unhealthy. Most doctors have been brainwashed to believe so, but it’s the type of lifestyle you live that will determine your health overall. A “beautiful” thin person who sits on their ass all day and eats junk food has NO advantage over the “ugly” fat person who exercises and eats in moderation.
Sorry to burst your bubble, but fat is natural.
It isn’t really how you are ‘fat’ but rather why you are. I know plenty of people who are overweight and obese – but they have healthy active lifestyles. As long as you keep healthy, it is fine to have fat (being a woman means you NEED/MUST have fat in order to function. For example periods…). If you are overweight or obese simply because you don’t eat healthy and aren’t active – the extra weight is just a sign of things you are doing wrong.
I have nothing against people on their size, just on how they take care of themselves. If a person has diabetes because of something genetic, they will have my sympathy. If a person has diabetes because they couldn’t keep their hand out of the cookie jar, I could care less.
lol and why does your opinion about anyone count anyway? Silly.
My comment wasn’t just my opinion, silly. c(=
I don’t take offense at your comment, and I fully realize that this may be and artifact of my own brain, but I dislike how your comment almost equated ‘having fat’ with ‘being fat’.
But then, I also dislike being called healthy, because it’s become so much of a euphemism.
I love how guys assume every woman with an opinion must be a hideously fat bitch with a complex.
You’re not supposed to be a moron, ask your doctor.
Don’t worry, I hear the wizard is giving out brains, you might actually have an original opinion someday if you ever hit puberty.
So men who agree with this picture want a woman who doesn’t take care of her appearance and looks natural?
Wait, that can’t be right. Men like that tend to have a tantrum when a woman isn’t wearing makeup.
They must want a woman who takes absolutely scrupulous care of her appearance using everything except for (perhaps) the implants, while making it all appear effortless and “natural.”
Remember guys, The woman doesn’t get dolled up for you. She gets dolled up to compete with other women. Its their form of arm wrestling.
As a female, I completely agree. I say this all the time. Also, this “lol” kind of pisses me off, but I am not completely surprised by this kind of interpretation of out culture.
*our
Eh, yes and no. When I get dressed up and do my hair and makeup, I am usually doing it for a)myself or b)my boyfriend and if I am single, I’m doing it for potential dates (ie: men). I usually never have a woman in mind when I’m getting dressed up. Women are horrible creatures and will tear you down no matter how good you look. They will hate you if you’re ugly and hate you if you’re gorgeous. That’s just our nature.
Why do you think women might compete with other women, eh? Think now…..I know it’s difficult….. hmmmm. Think hard! Why do men compete with other men, oftentimes doing extreme feats of silliness to prove….what, exactly? It’s all about status, which is about the continuation of the species. Get it, yet?
Exactly, but SOME women love to blame all the problems on men because then they don’t have to accept responsibility. Kinda like when chicks drink so they can act slutty and have an excuse the next morning.
Absolutely true.
We actually want a girl who will do this and not bitch when we make a mistake and lie because they do 24/7. That’s what we want. Stop trying to twist peoples words.
what’s with all the anti-women/misogynist postings recently? It’s beginning to leave a really nasty taste in my mouth. I used to LOVE this site for its irreverent and satirical take on all things celebrity (still do in fact, which is why I don’t want to boycott this part of lolcats) but postings such as this attacking women seem like sexist bullying. This, the ones about Amy Winehouse, about Princess Leia’s boobs, and about how women from the 50s and 60s were classier than women nowadays make me feel some people have some real issues.
I’m willing to bet a significant amount of money that male celebrities also spend lots of money on looking good – from John Wayne’s plastic surgery to expensive suits and hair plugs not to mention certain actors who wear insoles and built-up shoes to make them look taller – men are just as vain as women. As a woman I’d never think it would give me the right to lie to them. And I doubt most other men would either. Nothing does!
Ab-so-lute-ly!
It’s not anti-woman, it’s anti-fashion and anti-celebrity culture.
If it’s anti-celebrities why does the OP ask why ‘women’ wonder why men lie?
*Takes your soapbox away*
Yeah, and while this picture is on page 1, Madonna is on page 2 being laughed at just for having an old woman’s body. The conclusion is that pretty women taking care of their bodies are sluts, and the ones looking natural are nasty. wtf?
Of course! Women are supposed to look hot, no matter what, and when they’re no longer hot (e.g. “old”) they’re an item for derision. Didn’t you know that? ::eyes roll so hard they pop out of my skull::
AMEN!
Fake photoshopped females like this give guys unrealistic expectations of how their wives/girlfriends should be. The media tells teenage girls this is how they’re supposed to look. And you wonder what’s wrong with our country when people like this are considered role models.
I agree. I blame the media, those teen magazines, and hollywood for all the decline of morals and such in this country. Seriously. Granted parenting has a certain percentage of it but when friends are hanging out with friends and theyre bombarded by this **** what do you think is gunna happen? They should all be arrested for corruption of minors.
Realistically, that would NEVER happen. The media puts up information that WE WANT, that will make US pay attention. Needless to say it is our human nature that makes us desire to be perfect.
This problem of the human body in art and media (or purely just visual culture) has been around for all of human existence. As seen here: http://farm1.static.flickr.com/73/153813461_25adf1f569.jpg?v=0 one of the first statue/carvings found from ancient man. What do you see? A female with exaggerated features that show what a ‘prime and healthy’ (or rather beautiful) child bearing female human should look like. Even in the roman and greek times, when the ideal figure was male…do you *really* think everyone looked like those statues? Look again you will see things in the statues that would be impossible for the human body to achieve.
Today’s technology makes it easier for people to alter the ‘ideal’ human figure. It also shows certain behaviors (try watching music videos for a day and tell me what the common theme is). In the end the natural human body wouldn’t look like what is plastered everywhere, and may even look ‘exotic’ compared to it.
All the men I know actually prefer women not to wear makeup, and if the women do – it can’t be much (as in they don’t want dirt caked on the face they want to kiss). Granted the women they see on the television and in various ads are ‘desirable’, this would not be for actual relationships. Many men understand that this would take an extensive amount of time to maintain.
As for my opinion, I like some makeup only to accent the good features on the face – not to create them. I don’t like breast implants, just because they don’t look or feel real.
This is a fascinating concept to explore in Art, Media, and Visual Culture. I highly recommend it! =D
*applaudes* Very well said!
my only comment re: yours is the statues that you use as examples are not meant to represent real people, they are supposed to be gods, where as what you see in pop culture today are in fact, billed as normal, or at least human, people.
I like your point, a lot. However with today’s pop culture, icons are looked up to just as much as the gods were in time of old. I know this is a weird example, but the first thing that comes to mind is Miley Cyrus. Think about all of the kids that look up to her and want to be just like her. Isn’t that what a lot of gods are there for? For people to aspire to be like them (or at least stay on their good sides). In a sense, the same idolization exists today as then.
Thank you so much for your reply, it really got me thinking. =)
However, without makeup on, and with her hair totally crappy and undone, she’s still a raging hottie.
i agree.
I agree. And if men can’t see that this unrealistic, that’s their problem, not ours.
She can get all that stuff if she wants…the only thing that bothers me is the implants :O
1.) She doesn’t have breast implants.
2.) She doesn’t have a fake tan, obviously her ethnicity gives her darker skin.
I agree with that. Not all women with fairy large chests have breat implants. -.-
People who can’t tell the difference…are just sad.
THANK YOU! When she lays on her side, they flop sideways. Funny how you don’t hear people accusing most black women of having implants, even though they can put Dolly Parton to shame.
Well, when it comes to races, they have different body shapes, no? This is probably why some people will jump to conclusions faster or slower than others. =)
Plenty of black women in hollywood have been accused of having implants. She is also half-dutch (therefore proof she can be pale), the orange tone in her face gives the fake tan away.
Its saying that she uses way to much cosmetic products.
I get by just fine with a little mascara, eyeliner, a hair straightener and a little eye shadow here and there.
I think the point of this is Women “lie” about their appearance and then expect men to be 100% truthful. This isn’t saying that men don’t want women to make themselves look “better”, but we don’t want to be chewed out when we lie about little things. Not every post has to be twisted into being offensive to somebody; some things are just meant to be taken at face value.
” . . . don’t want to be chewed out when we lie about little things”? You, like the submitter, want to conflate the idea of lying to your girlfriend with the things women do to be more attractive . . . to men? Do you really think that’s a balanced equation? Cosmetics = an intentional transgression?
Yes. I tend to relate any form of “looking better” as lying. This includes when I dress nice. This lying is for the purpose of selling ourselves, to make us look better and more marketable. It’s not a harmful lie, but a lie nonetheless.
If I tell a white lie (again, not harmful to anyone), and it gets found out, I’m suddenly some horrible heathen who needs to be tossed on a bed of hot coals until I repent.
Does this seem right?
Okay, you’ve qualified the above now, as a “white lie” and “not harmful to anyone” ….. whereas, I, and I imagine, others, assumed you meant any form of lying, which would include those intentional things like, “No, I’m not cheating on you, honey!” White lies are quite different, as in, done to SPARE someone’s feelings.
Yeah, first of all, she’s Armenian, that’s not a fake tan. Second, her breasts are real, and when you see her ass, you can believe it. But I agree with most of the other stuff.
WIN
The butt isn’t real. She had that put in. She had a flat butt when she first started whoring out in pictures. Then one day she comes out with a big old shelf butt. God knows how many surgeons have been on TV declaring that butt is fake. The boobs aren’t fake i’ll give you that but, that butt is not real.
ugh I’m pretty sure that butt is real, she actually does not like her butt and is often times made-fun of for it. if you ever watched that trashy show with her and her family you would know she would give anything to get rid of it. She is also a WOMAN not a little girl and her weight plays a role in that I’m sure if she was like 110lbs her ass would only be half it’s size.
Why would i watch that show? It would probably make someone dumb. I don’t even have cable but here’s the problem. She only says that garbage because she knows everyone thinks she has the implants. Just like the tyra, she’s saying things to make you think else wise. I’ve seen a video in which a practicing plastic surgeon breaks down how he knows she has implants. Numerous other practitioners of cosmetic surgery have websites in which they show that she’s had numerous operations. So who should i trust? A doctor or a woman who’s only claim to fame is getting whizzed on in a porn?
Unfortunately, that’s not Kim Kardashian… this is: http://www.babyphat.com/shop.php
The photo above is actually Nicole (lead singer) from the PussyCat Dolls.
Sorry, I just think people should have the right name before they make fun of someone
Personally I don’t consider wearing make-up to be lying… Or something that would give ‘men’ any reason to use that against a woman. You’d think men would appreciate the effort some women make to attract men… I’m not saying that’s the sole reason women wear make-up, it’s certainly not my reason, but yeah… it’s totally implying that women are lying. Bizarre.
If anything a push up bra would be the closest to ‘lying’, hahah.
technically, stuffing would be lying. lol XD
True. However, some women wear so much makeup that thier men wouldn’t recognize them in the morning. I’ve seen it, it’s scary. And most of them are ridiculously good-looking without makeup. I can see accentuating your features, but some women take it too far. kim is a raging hottie without any form of makeup. I think many women bitching about her would give thier husband’s retirement to have all the spa/hair/boobs/etc that they think is so wrong for Kim.
Most of the comments here are proof that humanity has stopped evolving, and is in fact regressing.
If you gave specifics, it would make your statement more believable. I’ve read a lot of comments, and they are actually a lot better constructed than most threads I’ve observed.
DragonKat – read the comments. Duh. If you are agreeing with the comments here, then A Woman has been proven right.
If you can’t figure it out for yourself, I’m not going to hold your hand and go through it with you. It’s quite clear which posts are from misogynist idiots, and which are not. The fact that you can’t seem to tell the difference on your own means that you’re obviously a retard, as well.
Christ, people suck. This is yet another site I’ll have to stop visiting, due to the stupidity and hate.
Actually, any of the comments would suffice. It seems odd though, how there are different opinions in this thread…so agreeing to any of the variety of opinions would come to the same conclusion that you make. However, even by agreeing with your comment comes to the same conclusion. I was just wondering which ones in particular you didn’t like (as different people have different opinions). It would be like walking into a candy store with every kind of candy and saying “I hate those kinds of candy” and leaving (if that makes sense).
I was just looking for examples because I enjoy reading well thought out threads. I wasn’t accusing anyone of anything, just hoping to hear more of what someone has to say. =)
Also, if you read my comment stated above (it is pretty hefty in size) it states how humanity (on the subject of ‘image’) has actually stayed pretty much the same (even though what is seen as ‘desirable’ has changed over time and through cultures). My statement isn’t ’stupid’ or ‘ignorant’. It is actually coming from researched background.
I am not trying to pick fights, but instead trying to open doors for discussion. =) I hope I can get a ‘hate’ free reply from you. =)
P.S. My posts are never hateful (as it is against my moral standards to hate…that and I am aware of the fact that to hold anger in your heart just causes more pain for you to carry) and I try to put thought provoking statements into my posts…as to prevent the ’stupidity’ that you so dislike (but don’t mind taking the time to read and comment on). =)
Good luck with that. And if you find a place where there isn’t any stupidity or hate, give me a call, will you? Actually, never mind – misanthropy still counts as hate. In fact, what struck me upon reading this thread is how you are the only person bandying about words like “hate” – and yet this last post of yours is the only one to actually imply hate, though in the specific form of misanthropy rather than misogyny or misandry. I choose to interpret this as a simple frustration-motivated venting, though, and believe that you don’t actually hate people in general
As for misogyny, it refers to hatred against women, not mere discrimination or devaluation. And hatred, as you know, doesn’t mean “dislike” or “discrimination” – it means full-blown, virulent “I wish they would all die and go to hell!”, “The only good [x] is a dead [x]” hatred. Calling somebody a misogynist is a very strong statement, on par with saying “You want to murder all women!”, and using it in the sense of “sexist against women” is weakening the term. It’s also highly offensive, as you’re basically accusing them of genocidal psychosis.
I agree that the picture and a few of the comments were in bad taste, but not enough to warrant such rhetoric on your part.
she may be famous for no good reason, but i think she’s much more likable and gorgeous than most famous “nobodies”. *coughparishiltoncough* she seems to me like she has a really sweet disposition. i like her, myself.
Just a guess, but I think most of what she has (skin coloring, breast size, hair length) is what she was born with and I think she’s a very pretty woman. That said, I think she’s also dumb as a box of rocks, as well as her sisters and mother, and she’s famous for nothing and will fade with time.
I really hope she wasn’t born with the breast size or the hair length.
Why?
because that would be an awkward delivery.
“your baby is 8lb, 6oz and a 34D”
Oh! Hahah…
34 chest size? Talk about OUCH for the mom! =/
34D is such a pain in the ass bra size to find. It is just barely too big for most people to carry it and just barely too small for the ‘bigger’ stores. *grumble*
Oh, please! I won’t go into my breast size here, but 34D is a walk in the park! Just look into the British bra makers–cost a lot more, but WELL WORTH IT. Well, for your size, the French are AWESOME. If you have some cash to spend, look at Aubade. Beautiful stuff! I wear Panache, myself. Try figleaves.com.
OMG I am so glad to know others had the same problem…It made me feel like a circus freak bc I couldn’t find my bra size…and my BF was getting mad @ ME which pissed me off.
Oh, girl! Been there, done that. It’s so frustrating–I went at least 20 years wearing the wrong sizes! There’s even Live Journal groups to commiserate with you….I think one is called “Thirty-twoDD”, or something like that.
So…does this LOL mean that women make themselves look hotter than they are and yet they don’t want men doing the same thing? Because I don’t believe that’s true.
It can’t possibly be equating a woman’s manicure or hair extensions to, say, a married guy pretending to be single or something, right? Because that would just be STUPID.
And what planet are you people all from, anyway? I’ve NEVER had a guy bitch at me because I don’t wear makeup. If some guy you’re dating whines that he wants you to doll yourself up like a hoochie mama–DATE BETTER GUYS.
If you ever watch Keeping up With the Kardashians, Kim rarely wears makeup on that show unless she is going out or doing her “confessionals”. Most of the time she doesn’t wear makeup, and uh…she does (or did until last year) have a real job. She was/is a makeup artist for music videos and photo shoots. That’s how she met Damon Thomas, and then they got married.
Guys, don’t complain about girls lying, when you WANT THEM TO LOOK LIKE THAT. You would complain about them being cavewomen if they didn’t use make up or wax their legs.
Second. You think make up is only things like mascara, lipgloss and blusher? It’s more than that. If you go around saying that girls shouldn’t be liars and be all natural and that girls that use make up are liars, then most of the women you know would be liars! They use foundation, concealer, highlighter etc, and you’re too stupid to even notice. And the worst thing is, that if they didn’t use that make up you’d think they are ugly.
Stop looking at pornography if you think women should be all honest and “natural”, stop calling girls cavemen if they actually aren’t shaving their legs, stop talking about “hot chicks” with your friends because those “hot chicks” most likely look like that girl in the picture.
A natural, “non-liar” girl is a girl that doesn’t use a push up bra, that doesn’t wear any make up at all (even make up that you’re too dumb to know about), that doesn’t shave her legs, that doesn’t dye her hair, that doesn’t curl her eye lashes and that doesn’t use deodorant.
Idiots.
Agreed!
But I think not wearing a bra at all would be more in line with “natural,” not just specifically push-up bras.
“You think make up is only things like mascara, lipgloss and blusher? It’s more than that. If you go around saying that girls shouldn’t be liars and be all natural and that girls that use make up are liars, then most of the women you know would be liars! They use foundation, concealer, highlighter etc, and you’re too stupid to even notice.”
Ha! EPIC WIN.
Ok if women stop expecting men to shave since hair on our faces is natural.
What a pathetic argument.
Stop wearing deodorant? Stop shaving?
Don’t you expect a man to look and keep clean and smell nice? There’s nothing deceitful about that, it’s just having good hygiene.
And so what if some men think those women are “hot”? They’re allowed to think so. Don’t you find male celebrities who have washboard abs, perfect skin and perfect hair attractive?
But noooooo of course not, if WOMEN say they find a male celeb attractive that’s perfectly fine but if a guy says it then he’s being an asshole.
But even then, if you find those guys attractive it doesn’t mean you’re going to look down on every “normal” guy you meet does it? Of course not, because you KNOW all men are going to look that “perfect”. Well guess what? It’s the same with guys. They know that normal women aren’t going to look like that either.
Obviously there are some serious jerks out there who just want a girl who’s all looks but those guys aren’t worth anyone’s time. And of course there are girls like that too.
Like it or not, there are both superficial men AND women out there.
I don’t think make up is tantamount to lying. For one, to be ‘lying’ you must be mistelling the truth, and it must be to fool and cheat people without them knowing. In reality, men KNOW women wear make up, some MEN wear make up now days as well. Styling your hair and taking care of your appearance is expected in everyday society, and women who don’t have an attractive appearance will be passed up for the same oppertunities as a girl who adheres to social requirements. Hell, most women would be GLAD to meet a guy who actually took care of his appearance as much as is expected of women.
Guys who say “A guy should like you for YOU, without make up”… That’s true, but you usually find yourself looking at the girl while she’s in the make up, hair done, smiling because she feels confident. Very few women have clear beautiful skin naturally, and while after you get to know a girl and are really attracted to her brain her without make up is just as hot as with, social standards at first meeting are drastically different than several months along into a relationship. We aren’t all natural beauties, but we are constantly told by media in every direction that we should be.
Guys lying about things is lying, they’re meant to decieve without the truth being known. You KNOW girls are wearing make up, when men lie… women don’t know. That’s the falsehood, the deception.
Very well put! =)
Yes, very nicely done. That’s what I was trying to point out, above: that a lie is a willful, intentional transgression that will hurt another person, and the one who’s doing the hurting KNOWS that. Wearing makeup *might* be equated with a deception (and I think it’s a far stretch), but it is a cultural norm, and not for harmful purposes. They are not equal.
Good of you, also, to point out “who don’t have an attractive appearance will be passed up for the same oppertunities (sic)”. That’s very true, for men AND women. There have been many studies with this result. A more attractive person is usually given more raises and promotions in their field.
So why do men lie to those of us who are all natural? I wonder if you can’t get a girl, natural or otherwise, and that’s why you’re so resentful. I’m guessing that’s the case.
I’ve no idea, but I’m sure it’s still the woman’s fault! ;D
Are you talking about Orthodox Jews? Those are about the only women that don’t wear any makeup of any kind, eyeliner, lip stick,etc….
Did anyone ever once think that perhaps women like to put on make-up? That it is not always for the man but also for our own self esteem? Because it works both ways, it’s also about confidence and yes her body is real, she’s curvy and has naturally big breasts. And yes someone did do photoshop on her body to make her look extra hot, but without make up she’s still beautiful. SO it’s a win and a fail. it’s not a lie to enhance what she was given by nature. grow up and get a life if you think that all women who wear make-up are lying. I don’t think you understand why most of us actually wear it.
True. I WAS going to say that earlier, but didn’t think some of the misogynists (I’m sorry, but that’s what I think they are, and I don’t think using the term waters it down) above would’ve believed me. My spouse told me he loves me just as much w/o makeup & has said how wonderful I looked when I had on just a little undereye concealer & mascara, but I still prefer to do the whole enchilada. I feel more finished and I think I look gooood.
You need to examine WHY it would boost your self esteem. We know exactly whey you wear it, the same reason most women lie about their weight and age….ego. Of course only men have egos right?lol
“You need to examine WHY it would boost your self esteem.” I don’t know if this is directed at the previous poster, or myself, or both, but: No we don’t. It’s been explained to death in this forum, but in most of our culture, a large proportion of the women wear makeup. ALL of the pop culture icons and celebrities you see, and in all the advertising you see constantly–all of those women? They’re wearing makeup. Movies, music videos . . . YOUR MOM. They’re wearing makeup. It’s not conformity, exactly, but why would I want to walk around showing the veins around my nose, and not hide my teen acne scars, if I could look better? So–yeah, it’s my best face, and it’s not unadorned, but I don’t call it a “lie”. Since a huge majority of women in our culture wear makeup, then I think the majority of men are smart enough to realize *women are wearing makeup*. Or am I giving them too much credit? ::sigh::
Actually, the examples you cite are mostly people in the limelight. The vast majority of women I know — middle-aged, middle-class, white — wear little or no makeup. They’re too busy with real things to fool with it. The “full face” deal is largely confined to the American south, where it still seems to be de rigeur for some, the upper crust, and celebrities.
“It’s not conformity, exactly, but why would I want to walk around showing the veins around my nose, and not hide my teen acne scars, if I could look better?”
Men don’t do it (apart from the acne scars, maybe). It’s become so ingrained into our culture that women HAVE to care about their looks, that it’s only on places like here that people even notice it. It’s a double standard that started off as a desire to look sexually attractive to men, and eventually became conformity.
And what annoys me is the idea that it doesn’t matter you not wearing make-up as long as you look pretty without it. I stopped wearing make-up one day and some girl said to me, ‘It’s O.K, you don’t need it,” or something to that effect. Yeah, it’s a compliment, but I don’t like my appearance to be judged. I just don’t.
But I don’t judge women who do, and I don’t call it a lie, either. We’re all struggling together in this world, and provided you’re not stressing about it, there’s no harm in wearing a little make-up. But, in an ideal world, you (most women) really should feel confident without it. I do.
I’ve never lied about my age. Never. I have lied about my weight. I’m a little sensitive about that. Especially with most men (boys, really), who think unless you’re under 130 pounds, you’re a moose. Hell, at least 10 to 15 pounds of me is boobs, so you can discount some right off the bat. LOL Oh, wait: I forgot what decade I was living in . . . these days, unless you’re under 115, you’re an aircraft carrier. ::SIGH::
So true! Thank you for saying this.
LOVE it!!!
Kim Kardashian is Hot, i “FAP” to her everyday …..
Anyone who is saying neg things about this is retarded. i dont know of any girl who attempts to make herself look good without makeup and such. I don’t agree with implants. she doesn’t tan (if you idots actually knew who she was you know that both other sisters, her mom and her dad are that dark.
Not shown: Mind-bogglingly gigantic ass.
And don’t forget plastic. If you watch the video of Kim K getting a massage you can see the implant move. It’s freakish.
WIN!!!
And you wonder why you don’t get laid.
Sorry, this chick is disgusting. It’s like a clown.
Far too fake for me.
How are earrings a lie?
Are you suggesting that a person wearing earrings is trying to look like they have pretty metal (or otherwise) things attached to the side of their head?
Well thought out.
I can’t stand men who agree with this picture then turn around and talk bad about girls who don’t naturally look like something out of a painting.
I believe that women in today’s society are becoming more dependent on makeup and cosmetic surgery, but if you’re going to talk bad about that person then call any natural girl ugly, you’re setting yourself up for a bad marriage or single-for-life ordeal.
Marissa Miller wears very little makeup.
a lil chubby but still very cute
…sigh, people, none of those “reality” shows are real, the closest thing you might get to reality on the television these days is American Idol, and half of those people are paid to look like idiots.
No one said anything about women being bad people, and if you compare wearing make up to cheating on you, then you are an imbesile and deserve to have it happened to you. If you spend more than ten minutes on your appereance, then you’re trying too hard. And the reason why the man will cheat on you is because after you get married, he’ll wake up to someone who he didn’t know existed–you without all of your makeup and push-up bras.
My thesis basically is: Do not expect a guy to sleep around if he says that you’re “hot,” and not “beautiful,” and do not expect to not be judged for caring too much about your apperance in the first place; it’s your own fault.
Men are pigs for caring too much and women are sluts for letting them get away with it.
And just so you terrified guys don’t cry about it, or self-conscious girls don’t bitch, I’ll say this for your benefit: MOST men, and MOST women.
Any disagreements? :\
I dunno about other girls, but I wear makeup and make my hair look pretty because, er, I like the way it looks. Period. It’s nice if a guy likes the way I look, but that’s really not why I do it…
I know the point you were trying to make, it just didn’t make it all the way.
one really has nothing to do with the other, sorry fellas.
First of all, not all women feel the need to change themselves with plastic and chemicals…and for the record, women wouldn’t feel the need to do those things to their bodies if men didn’t convince them that they NEED to in order to get guys to LIKE them.
But what’s wrong with the earrings?
I don’t like her.
That’s all I’m gonna say.
she’s a celebrity, a socialite even.
thus, she is not a real woman. or man for that matter.
“God giveth you a face, and yet you paint yourself another one.” -Hamlet
There is a real difference between making yourself look good and lying. So this picture is insulting.
Agreed.
oh shut up ppl but i will admit this is funny and her breast are over sized
Her BREASTS (you mean–plural–there are two) “are oversized” (in your opinion) . . . that doesn’t make them a “lie”. Artificiality does, but I don’t think hers are artificial.
EPIC WIN!!
Uhhhh actually Kim Kardashian’s boobs are real…
And I really see nothing wrong with cosmetics and all that. Grooming is fun =D
IDGI…
She is actually naturally tanned as she is of mainly Turkish Armenian and descent. You can check her profile on my website.
…
Hoo-wee, I sure do hate Kim Kardashian!
Women dress up not for men but because they’re in competition with other women. What they fear most is being snubbed by a better-dressed, better-groomed woman. Men are VERY unlikely to think ill of a woman because her purse doesn’t match her shoes.
If you’re confident with yourself and your body, you’ll look hot in sweat pants and a T-shirt.
well, i dont care what other women think of me. im in it for the men! XD
Misogyny much?
What I’m not understanding is how nice clothes and earrings could possibly be construed as ‘lying.’
Sure, but, people ARE born with that proportion lol. push up bras and padded butt jeans were invented for a reason, its easy to fake, even without surgery. I’m sure her rump is real.
wow, is that what you do to make you feel better about yourself? you get a picture of a beautiful woman and try to find excuses as to why shes so pretty. like “oh well its just because of this, of because of that and this and that.” just accept the fact your an ugly loser and shes gorgeous.
yep, girls are ugly by nature
oh man. very nice
