Makeup Hypocrisy


I have recently been getting into gothic fashion and something I associate with this is darker makeup. For example, the type of makeup worn by Adora BatBrat or Siouxsie Sioux. I find this style fun yet beautiful.

Recently there has been a lot of negative rejection of this culture. Like stereotypes such as  you must be thin, you must be curvy, you must spend ages putting on makeup so it looks like your not wearing any, you must not be a man and look feminine. I do not agree! The gothic culture has become popular recently but people are looking more like gothic barbies than whatever they set out to be when they decided to go this direction.

I don't mean to generalise, but one view seems to be about expressing yourself while the other seems to be about matching up to the standards of pleasing society and the opposite sex.

I dont agree or disagree with either statement.

What do you think? Tell me in the comments below.
