Hmm, that's a thought. Wonder where I take in for repairs. Wonder if it's even still under warranty. LOL

I would like to be a man for a little bit, if for no other reason than to see how they really see women. My guy friends say they don't notice when one of the girls gains a few pounds, or gets a trim, or wears different makeup, because all they see is the whole package, and the little changes don't make us any less attractive, whereas all the women I know seem to be able to catch a change in weight of merely a few ounces in the other women and all of a sudden, when she's not around it's "Oh my goodness, what has she been eating? She should go on a diet..." I hate that about some women, I think that's why I hang out with my cars and male friends 98% of the time. Not to mention being able to eat curly fries without "the look" from the girls. I like fried foods, and steak, and ice cream. So sue me.

Depends on how many pounds we are talking.. anything less than about 10 and I don't think most guys notice... atleast I don't. And then for the hair and make up.. .depends on how big the difference is. Guys don't notice subtle changes..... we are big picture people mostly

Welcome to the MCF dating service. Our latest offering, cowboy6622,is on special 50% off.

I would have to say that guys in general see the overall package first. Then they focus on their favorite part(s) after that. I think most guys won't notice a small change in weight, up to, say, 5 pounds. Even if a guy does notice a weight gain, a smart guy will keep his mouth shut about it. Unless he's got a death wish.

As for hair and makeup and stuff like that, I think guys notice but not to the degree that women do. And most of us really don't care what shade your lipstick is. To us, raspberry, strawberry, and autumn maple are all red.

We'll look at a woman's overall appearance and decide if she is or isn't good looking. But we generally don't nitpick like women do.

That's scary - that you know names for lipstick colors, LOL. I guess they are names, heck, I don't wear lipstick.

to add to what Taz said on lipstick... guys know about 8 colors:

Blue
Black
White
Purple
Red
Green
Brown
Yellow
Orange

All colors are a light, dark, or mixture of these colors to a guy.... all lipstick is pretty much red to a guy. We don't see all of these various colors you do.

You forgot one Duane: rust. Guys know the color "rust".

Any combo colors end in "ish" or "-y".
For example: aqua would be "kind of a greeny blue-ish".

And the start of many a fights.

Girl buys new lipstick for boyfriend one day, tries it on for him and models for him. While he's watching the game of course.
Girl..."Honey, how do you like it?"
Guy... "Like what?"
Girl... "How do you like what I did?"
Guy... (not seeing any change)"How do I like WHAT that you did?"
Girl... "You don't love me!"
Guy... (trying to figure out what he just did wrong?) "I'm sorry."
Game Over!!
