how many react to different levels of
makeup online this was a really
interesting social experiment a beauty
related social experiment her name is
Brenton Parker and what she wanted to
see was how men would react dependent on
how much makeup she wore so she created
three completely identical accounts on
tinder one where she had very minimal
makeup almost bare face makeup the other
one average amounts of makeup and then
finally the third account with heavy
makeup and then she swiped because you
guys are familiar with tinder I'm not
but you basically you swipe to accept
someone so she swiped the first 100
suggested matches for herself and this
is what her findings were so she saw
that men actually flocked to the
barefaced version of her but their
language was different they almost
treated her more like a friend than a
hookup now the person with average
makeup that's where she got most of the
flirtation and where most of the men I
guess wanted to take her out on a date
and then finally with the heavy makeup
it was people assumed the men assumed
that she was a little bit more based on
the language a sexual sexually
promiscuous and then also that she was
more stylish so she would get comments
like dope style I like just style she
did say which I thought was really
interesting that she was actually quite
refreshed by most of the conversations
that most of the people seem like they
genuinely wanted to get to know her even
though tinder is specifically based on
your physical appearance which she said
of course there were some standout some
negative standouts that definitely
correlated her sexual willingness to how
much makeup she was wearing interesting
thoughts five words or less men make up
your mind this experiment needs more
foundation yes can't make this stuff up
tinder is the night okay so first of all
what did you guys think about the
results of this experiment and I do
think that we need to just talk about
the fact that it's a not the ideal
sample size 100 people it's not going to
have the significant statistically nor
there's there's other variables involved
but what did you still think I have a
problem of calling this a social
experiment to begin with it lacks
credibility what about all the other
factors that are that are not being
counted in here there's backgrounds
there's clothing there's lighting
there's photo composition there's the
fact that she's beautiful no matter how
she looks at all the pictures you don't
know about the men coming up to her and
you don't know about are they judging by
socioeconomic status how does that work
hinder though like this is not like you
don't set up a huge dating profile like
you don't get an opportunity to find out
about anyone anyway right I think you
have plenty of controls I think she has
like it's the same person it's basically
the same photo she did like change some
they were like oh I'm outside I'm an
outdoorsy person I disagree because in
the no makeup when she had a picture of
her wearing like a beanie and she's
outside like in the forest she looks
very outdoorsy there's one in the the
minute medium makeup where she's holding
a drink so maybe men might take that as
a who that drink means she's ready to
die giggidy giggidy giggidy yeah I agree
cuz I don't think makeup is necessarily
the right thing to say she changed
because I think she's like oh doom it
should be bet it would be better
presented as do men like an outdoorsy
looking person or like a person who
looks like they want to go out and do it
yeah and I think that's proven by the
reactions that she got people right
style they they picked up on that
instead of just being like oh you're you
know this looks like somebody that's
that's clearly promiscuous because I'm
ik weighting their sexual availability
to wearing makeup they thought more
stylized because the pictures were very
stylized so that's a really good point
but do you think that she has any sort
of legitimacy here with her claim that
that men will equate one woman's up yes
well first of all what's frustrating is
the is the medium amount of makeup
getting the most she said flirtatious
and disturbing and there are a list of
really disturbing comments and to me
like as I'd say most of us we're like in
the medium makeup section right like I
mean if you were to post pictures would
you do full makeup I think I go a little
too thank you too much I've been wanting
to tell you that but I thought I'd tell
you in private
Mauri beard hair is individually placed
by my guy I have a guy
oh beard guy I don't like that if I want
to wear that much makeup I don't want
that type of attention do you think that
you get objectified more Kim when you do
pile on more makeup or do you think it
also has to do with the fact of your
clothing choices and how friendly you
are I think that plays more into it than
the makeup like it's easier to detect
what you're wearing being like oh that's
that kind of girl I mean a lot of
different kind of kinds of girls wear a
medium amount of makeup right but I
think heavy makeup is like you know so
it communicates whether consciously or
not that I spent a lot of time trying to
get you to notice me or I care about my
appearance or I'm an artistic person it
could mean a lot of things but I'd in
her dimension those all fall under to
get you to notice in her I think in a
guy's mind I don't I I totally
understand what you mean right
Oh today I'm just gonna put a little
extra into it cuz I got the time
whatever like I know girls who do that I
agree with you and normally when women
wear more makeup it usually correlates
with their outfit they're gonna be
dressed up more and I think that lends
to your point as well as the fact that I
think subconsciously when men see and
women see girls that are dressed down
and normally when you're dressed down
and you're you're normally barefaced
makeup you do put off more of a grounded
vibe which does sometimes lead to people
thinking that you're less available or
or promiscuous first guys in the way you
go about doing it
trying to get chicks you try to do it on
there try to do it alright alright you
try to do there
be aware the guy might be playing an
angle
