WHAT I ENVY ABOUT MEN.

Don't get me wrong, I love being female, but there is just one thing I envy about the male species - and this is it. A man can get up in the morning - shower and shave or shave and shower whichever one is done first - then he slaps on some aftershave , gets dressed and he is good to go.
No bother about putting on eyeliner, mascara, eye shadow, foundation, blush, eyelashes, lipstick, nail polish ,etc, etc. With a man - most times - what you see is what you get.
These days, I try to be as natural as possible, but I would never leave the house unless I am sure that I am looking my best. What about you? What is the one thing or several things about the male species that you admire or envy? The same question can be asked of men - as regards women.

I do not leave the house without makeup and I wear quite a bit. I am ugly without it. Men are lucky to not have to worry about all the hassle of getting ready as women do but if a man is ugly they cannot wear makeup to make the look better like we can. Well they can but most do not want to.

Maybe as you get older you will not feel the need for makeup. I wore it when I was younger and as time went by I find that I wear it much less and most days not at all

I have decided that I am pretty enough to do without all the makeup, I can pull off my day with a like mascara. I envy that when they get hot they can take off their shirts and walk around and they can pee in the car in bottle in a traffic jam.

I'm afraid I don't spend a lot of time getting ready to go out although I'm always clean and tidy. I'm not sure what I envy about men. I'll need to think on it. Probably standing up to pee - that would make it so much easier sometimes.

@DWDavis It is a competition in a way. When a woman enters a room or is walking on the street another woman will automatically check out her shoes - that is the first thing some will look at- then her hair, makeup, the fit of her clothes. Do men do that to each other?

I am amazed to watch women on the train or on the bus putting on makeup. I must say I would probably end up with skewered eye ball on the end of the mascara stick! Mind you I must say that with some women once they have applied their make up there is a considerable transformation. Some women use far too much make up and it is not necessary!

No one is forcing you to put all that make up. I do not put on any make up - just some lipstick and talcum powder and I am as good as a man when it comes to time taken to dress up

You make it look so simple but that is true., the only down side is a dull razor blade

I have always admired women for (besides the obvious) their point of view on different things. Women seem to see things differently than men do and it is helpful many times to get a woman's perspective on things.
