Guys who wear eyeliner and makeup, -what do you think? Love it OR Hate it?

 

When I decided to pick a fight on MonkeyBrain I wanted it to be a little bit quirky and lots of fun... I know you've got an opinion about guys who wear eyeliner so add your 2 cents to the debate! Is it hot or not?

My inspiration for this lens was Jared Leto, who I adore, admire and respect, with or without the eyeliner. Jared is very, well lets face it, beautiful. He is the singer and songwriter for the band, 30 Seconds to Mars and a very talented actor. He wears makeup, sometimes lots of makeup, especially black eyeliner, but he has been known to get a little crazy once in a while with the color too.

How to Apply Guyliner

To add to this very serious debate, I posted 2 pictures of Jared Leto... 

-One picture with eyeliner and one picture without eyeliner. Of course, your opinion should be based on the overall population of men, not just Jared, but I thought he was a great example for this fight because of the extreme difference in his appearance with or without the eyeliner.

They can't all get away with it - but on some rock stars, oh yeah! And of course Johnny Depp!

The_Homeopath says:

Guyliner is, um, well.....it turns me on.

Pastiche says:

I think if it enhances a guys eyes, why not? It's certainly de rigeur for theatrical work. I'm more concerned with what goes on behind a man's eyes than what he's wearing on 'em. Oh, and I'm "over 50" ... FWIW 8-)

pyrox02 says:

I don't do it anymore, but it looks good on me! :]

beachbum_gabby says:

Captain Jack look cool with that but maybe for some guy, is it not.

dayna_lynn says:

its great if the guy can pull it off like Jared Leto can it only makes him look hotter!

EelKat says:

oooh! weird, how I see folks saying they are OLD FASHIONED for not liking men in eyeliner... YOW! uhm... so read any good history texts lately?

Let's see, old fashioned men:

in the 1890's through 1920's no man of high status was seen with out his eyeliner, and heaven forbin ANY male actor was seen on screen without it!

1100's - 1890's Japan... men and women alike wore eyeliner

1300's - 1600's most of Europe was caked in white powder and black eye khol

Is there a point in French history when men didn't wear eyeliner?

ancient Egypt, Babylon, and Persia --- is 3,000 BC old fashioned enough? LOL! in these era eyeliner was worn by rich and commoner alike!

Men have worn eyeliner since before written history. It only went out of style during the two World Wars, because no one could afford it any more. Today we got used to the after effects of the war and the make-upless men that resulted from it.

As for me, I'm glad to see men becoming old fashioned once again, and bringing back the look.

Hey... it's called "Gothic" for a reason... Gothic was a period in history: 1300 - 1600, people today who try to mimic that era in any form are considered Gothic, and mimicing the makeup of the era is just one way of bringing back the "old fashioned" look.

I spent years studying fashion history, partly because I love the way men used to dress and hate the way most "average" men dress today. Loving old fashioned men and all their long hair, ruffled lace cloths, and makeup!

Hate it!

JetFuelOnly says:

I say it's for pirates and rock stars only!!

cx2 says:

No No No No No NO NO and NO!

youhavegottobekidding says:

Totally for Gays. i know some Men look nice on it. but you don't have to wear it everyday. and the fall out boys are also gays.

JessicaF says:

I must admit that Depp looks cool with Guyliner, but only as a PIRATE! I do like my men to be.. well MANLY...

Imaginary_Fiend says:

I view it much like I view popped collars and people with face tattoos: It's a good indicator that I have no reason to speak with you. Go do something manly, like grow a beard or punch something.

AslanBooks says:

Pretty-boy...can't stand it!

BigGirlBlue says:

Only Johnny Depp can get away with it. :)

I think I may have seen Zac Efron with guyliner. Don't like it at all! Perhaps early Marc Bolan memories have left a lasting impression!

After seeing this lens last week I was watching Rome and now that Anthony (James Purefoy) is living in Egypt he is wearing eyeliner so of course I had to come back here and mention it. :)
