    Is it true that you can talk to women? I’ve never tried it before and I’m 32. I use Arch GNU+Linux btw. Also I’ve never been outside.

          They call that Lordosis and I’ve only ever seen it happen when I showed one of the females my dual sli GTX 1080ti setup while benchmarking in Heaven. Getting her off my desk with her ass in the air is a pain but she apparently likes my hand going down her back and her ass patted. Getting her off my keyboard when I’m in the middle of a game can be a real pain sometimes…

        Talking to women is no longer considered a best practice.
        Recommend upgrading to listening to women.

      Absolutely! In fact if you’re on Arch you may have a built in conversation starter by discussing your collection of thigh-highs and seeing where that takes you.

    It’s wild that hundreds of years ago, high society women would wake up to put on makeup. They’d literally never be seen without it. Waking up at crack ass morning, wear makeup, then make breakfast.

    My wife and I went for a walk and she didn’t even wear a bra.

    Life is great.

      I’m not sure why this comment is so popular. If you travel, you see many countries on the planet where all women wear makeup all the time.

      There are plenty of women who live like this now. It’s a cultural thing, not a timeline thing. I had a roommate in college who would wake up before dawn to do her makeup so nobody would see her without it.

      (Also high society women certainly didn’t make their own breakfasts… well, ever, but especially not hundreds of years ago)

        And depending on the era, certainly in England, many high society people didn’t get out of bed until 11am or midday.

    Please don’t roast me here, but why is wanting to know what someone looks like without makeup such a bad thing? I’ve never even thought about it before, so please don’t take this as advocating for it. It just doesn’t immediately occur to me what the problem would be.

    I get why it’s gross to have an app to remove clothing, but makeup feels like a different category.

    What about an app that changes or removes hair? Or one for sunglasses/jewelry?

    Are they all gross in some way that I’m missing? Is it creepy to remove makeup from photos but not creepy to remove earrings?

      On the surface it seems reasonable, but it tends to have misogynistic undertones, especially if said towards strangers.

      It’s like when the paparazzi publishes photos of celebrities with no makeup without their consent. If her makeup skills are good, she gets accused of “deceiving” people about her real age/looks. If her makeup skills are bad, she just gets called ugly.

      It’s kind of creepy to do anything to a photo without consent. I’m a dude with plugs, and it’d be a little off-putting if a stranger I didn’t know digitally removed my ear rings to see what I’d look like.

      This is how I present myself. You can see me without ear rings or makeup when I want you too.

        It’s been used by people for nefarious purposes, regardless of its original intent. Both perspectives are valid.

        Of course the creator is going to tout the most morally upstanding use of his app. If it genuinely helps human trafficking victims, then that’s another story, but from this quote it just seems like he has some vague hope about it.

    My wife almost never wears makeup. Basically only for things like job interviews.

    And I don’t like how she looks in makeup, so I’m fine with that.

      Same, I’m really grateful she has no interest/desire to wear makeup. It was also nice to know what her face looked like from day 1, which is what this app is meant to facilitate.

      The more I think about it, the stranger the notion of ‘gatekeeping her real face’ behind a full-on relationship sounds to me, lol.

      P.S. lol, I just remembered reading an old ‘hack’ for this years and years ago: make a water park your first outing together.

    I know jack shit about photo editing, but did this person just de-saturate the colors? The eyes and hair look like they are less vivid. Even the background looks different., less dark and more blue?

    It’s not like we wear makeup as some devious plot to trick men and hide our real faces instead of you know, to look good for ourselves. Besides, I don’t think I look that different without makeup, sometimes people just ask if I didn’t sleep well last night if I don’t.

    Anyway, if people really cared that much to see their favorite actress (me) without makeup, would you be interested in getting a copy of “Barbie”, now available on Blu-ray and select streaming services?

    (and there’s “The Wolf of Wall Street” for the naked part.)

      I might be the minority group here, but I prefer my wife without makeup. After our second date I told her I’d rather see her face as it is, than it be hidden under a mask. Everyone has flaws, it’s what makes us unique and there is beauty in that alone. She hasn’t worn makeup since and were pushing 2 decades of marriage now.

        i mean you can apply makeup that doesn’t look like a mask, it’s the old adage of “if you’re not aware of it, it’s done right”

      sometimes people just ask if I didn’t sleep well last night if I don’t.

      I’ve heard this is a thing.

      I’m a dude, I never sleep well. Anytime I look in the mirror, I can certainly tell that I didn’t sleep well, but I’m almost never asked about it.

      I went for a sleep study earlier this year, I’m meeting with a doctor to discuss the findings in a couple of weeks. Hopefully I can get better sleep soon…

      Even with that being said, it would be nice if someone cared enough to ask about it. At the same time, I can also see that getting asked that question a bunch, regardless of how well you slept, would be pretty annoying.

      IDK. Everyone asks what I’m doing, never how I’m doing. It’s fine. I survive.

        But you’re probably also not told things like how you should smile more any time you don’t look cheery enough.

        Man’s appearance just gets criticized less than women’s appearance.

      The skin looks less “flat”/“clean” the face is more pale, the dark rings under the eyes are more noticeable, the lips are less red and the eyebrows are weaker.

      However this is going to be extremely flawed, as it has to make assumptions about which parts of the face are made up and which aren’t, probably exaggerating what it has to “correct” for. Also i wouldn’t be surprised if this will struggle immensely with non white faces.

      The photo on the left is with makeup; the photo on the right is without. On the leftmost image the lips are more saturated and have more defined edges and there is more shadow around the eyes.

      Older guy here. I have noticed that now when I look a beautiful young women I feel envy rather than lust. My thoughts go to wishing I was young again rather than wishing I could “tap dat ass” or whatever. Realizing that made kinda sad, NGL.

          It’s not lile that. I have no regrets, it’s just that I am getting older. Shit hurts all the time or doesn’t work as well as it used to. I am tired and the weight of a lifetime of memories is starting to get heavy. I am the same guy I was at ~21. In thirty years you will be the same guy you are today, but younger people will look at you different. I skateboard, I surf, I snowboard, etc as I have for forty years, but now I am not a dude doing dude things, I am a curiosity or “an inspiration”. I can’t go to a concert or a club to enjoy myself as I always have because now I am the weird old guy in the club. Nevermind that I have been listening to “EDM” since the 80’s. It just sucks that I just can’t be me without it being weird.

          As far as advice, you know what to do. Eat well (little to no proceased food, way less meat, more veggies, etc) exercise regularly, stay active, and drink lots of water. Also, play hard AND work hard for yourself.

            I like the work Hard for yourself statement. As a 43 year old woman possibly dealing with a serious health issue (waiting on results) I wish I had worked harder for myself on prioritising my health over my work. Far too easy to put off dr appointments/dentist appointments/smears etc by rationalising that you can’t miss that meeting.

              Heah, I guess for people in this day and age health span maximisation (not life span) should be the main goal.
