Idle thoughts of a relatively libertarian Republican in Cambridge, MA, and whomever he invites. Mostly political.

I'm not really responding to this entry at the KC -- it just jogged my memory.

I'm not really a fan of make-up, and I've generally assumed that most women weren't, either -- I assumed women went to the bother of putting on make-up because they thought it'd make them more attractive to others. But a female friend of mine recently told me she resents drag queens. She says she feels that make-up is her compensation for biological and social disadvantages of being a woman, and that the drag queens get to be men but wear make-up too. It seems unfair to her.

I don't really have anything intelligent to say regarding this -- I just thought it was different, and possibly worth passing along. If any women are interested in responding, though, I would be interested in:


  1. Do you wear make-up? and
  2. If so, are you trying to look pretty for other people, or just for yourself?
