What is Cover Girl trying to prove? I noticed a commercial on TV with this unattractive model to find out it is a man dressed in drag.  I personally don't want men wearing female makeup selling me products.  Now I had a few very good gay men friends who sadly passed away so I am not homophobic. But men dressed as women with women's makeup on is going to far even for me.   Cat Very Happy

I respectfully disagree.

They aren't selling to you, so don't worry about it.

Males have been wearing makeup for eons. Look around at different cultures around the world and there are many.

The male CG model is famous on YouTube for his make up tutorials.

KatCat 1 -- I agree with you.  I don't want to see men wearing makeup selling it for women.

Oh please. African tribals have adorned themselves with makeup forever. King Tut wore malachite eyeliner. Japanese Kabuki actors are ALL men.

Are you talking about the model James Charles? Isn't he the controversial 17 year old known for his racist tweets?
