I was talking to one of my Guy friend’s - (Yes...They do exist) - as you do & then we brought up parents, telling me that he would love to marry a women as NATURAL as his mother, but females these days are making it hard because they are so Artificial, that we have so many add-ons he’d never really know who he is marrying Or as he would say “I don’t want to go out with a girl for time & every day she is looking like Gabrielle Union, then one day I wake up next to my now married wife in disbelief to find out that I have indeed married Grace Jones”…I tried to battle with him, but he was adamant in saying girls are aesthetic liars, apparently we the female demographic lie to guys with several artificial trimmings, so I asked a few other guys their views & as soon as I brought it up it was like I opened the gates to hell & a lot of guys seem to share the same views on it. So I conducted a table of what we “Lie” about, the reasons men believe we lie & general reason we love these add-ons, feel free to add on:
| “LIE” | REASON BELEIVED FOR LIE | EXCUSE |
| Hair extensions/ weaves | Hiding lack of hair growth & generally wild picky kinky hair texture | Yes I am guilty of a weave, but weaving your hair & extensions can actually grow your hair & give you a brand new look for a while, maybe I want short hair & don’t know how it’ll look, my weave will give me insight loll. |
| Nail extensions | Brown nails, Short Nails & Fingernail biting | It looks nice for Gods sake; give a girl a break acrylic can also grow your nails as well & last longer than normal polish, plus its looks pretty. |
| Make-up | Hiding Bad skin, Blemishes, A not so nice face. | Like with the weave its artsy you can enhance an outfit with make-up, some women feel they need it for confidence & it can also add to your natural beauty, sort of like an accessory. Pretty lashes, need some mascara, pretty eyes need some eyeliner, its decoration really, just making something more physically appealing. |
| Padded bra’s, Wonder bras & Chicken fillets | Create a bulge or two where there is none | I’m a bit chesty, so I don’t need them but sometimes a Wonder bra can add a much needed cleavage line to a v neck outfit, padded bra’s can also be a lot more comfortable than normal bra’s & stop your nipples from poking out when its cold kmt lol |
| Waist Belts, Corsets & Girdles | Give A Girl Some Shape, Reduce Size | Never worn one, but if a guy hollered at a girl because she had shape on Monday & Lost her hour glass on Tuesday that’s his own stupid fault, I have no excuse for this, My Corset May Lie, But My arms won’t, you can see what size I am from them.. Not a fan of the wear a waist belt with everything trend that’s happening, but it is an accessories... |
| Peep toes & Heels | Hide Corns/Bunions/ Hammertime & Appear taller | Yeah I couldn’t believe it either, Maybe we should walk out in bare feet, Peep Toes were the last one I entertained, Peep toe shoes are generally what’s been sold by consumers these days & the shoes are hott, get with the times grandpapi’s, if we lie with peep toes, we lie with shoes full stop & lets not get started on men’s football toes lol. Heels are the finishing touches to an outfit, get real … I couldn’t wear that sexy number with flats. I just think the shoes complaint is just unreasonable. |
One of them tried to get bold by adding fake tan to the list, but I had to remind them they were dealing with more of a Bunmi than a Becky, so that didn’t apply to my already tanned cocoa complexion... Anyways me being me would never let a personal attack of such disdained slide, I mean these guys was telling ME to my face, possessor of 1b 16inch remy weave, Topshop waist belt, 5inch KG Peep Toes, Eye-liner & Mascara Whore, That I was BALD, FAT & UGLY underneath my well decorated frame, with a few toe amenities hiding in the woodwork. So I allow the lil’ punk to resume his game of "Pro Evolution Soccer" leaving me to ponder on the seat furthest from the bed, he scores eventually & does a cheesy celebration & removed his not so custom fitted new era hat in the glory... And you know what I just had to giggle to myself, that as much as women “lie”, these dudes are fibbing as well. How many times have you met a sexy dude, Visually saying the MOST, then he removes his hat to show his true concaved head shape, more familiar types the bullet & the surfers delight peak Or better yet hairlines that are M.I.A (Missing In Action)… take it or leave it you lot are just as messed up as we are, flaw recognise flaw right.
With metro sexual males’ becoming more socially acceptable, who knows in five year time, our men could be following "Stuart" from BB & rocking that guy-liner like it’s the norm… I’m thinking maybe the beauty being inside the eye of the beholder line is become more fable than fact & that it’s actually that beauty is in the eye of the owner, we get dressed & look in the mirror, happy with the end result & then that translates to others. If someone’s attracted because they like what they see, are they not seeing what you want them to? I mean different strokes for different folks, too each their own & all that stuff but… I don’t know; you guys let me know what you think.
