Lipstick for men – NARS
First I want to say that I am 100% pro-gay, I think that everyone has the right to choose: whether it’s their choice of food, cloths or sexual orientation. It’s really none of my business who loves whom… I mean if you like guys it’s fine with me either you are a girl or a boy!
On the other hand, I think that there is some extend to which I can understand how the male/female image changes over time! What I mean by that is, indeed, this “new” tendency to switch identities – when women try to mimic men and otherwise. Let me explain what I wan to say in some more details.
According to me (and I think that my interpretation is the common one), there are certain stereotypes which are associated with either of two sexes, something like girls wear pink and boys – blue. These days people tend to break as many stereotypes as they possibly can – the perfect example is men wearing high heel shoes (and no, these shoes were not meant to be man’s shoes, they are from woman’s collections). I don’t want to judge people, I love freedom of expression – you can wear what you want and where you want! But sometimes the whole identity swap just gets to me – like the ad campaign for 15th anniversary of cosmetic brand Nars where Marc Jacobs appears wearing red lipstick and nail polish… This is still not clear in my head… You people are so uncomfortable in the skin they are in??? (Does it ring the bell?) May be there will be time when I will get it but not now! I respect people who can shine through the stereotypes and don’t cross the boundaries of ridiculousness…
Lovely picture. I like the color red. That color looks great on him. I thanks for sharing and giving a giggle.
