“Despite frequent calls for equality; there remain differences.
These differences refer, not to inequality and oppression, these differences relate to sexual power.
One significant area of difference is make-up.
Make-up is identified as a ‘Tertiary sexual characteristic’, which relates to behaviour, rather than of the body.
Make-up is applied to make a women look younger; lipstick is applied to give the appearance of youth, lusciousness and also implying sexual availability, sexual energy and ripeness.
Eyeliner and eye shadow is clearly designed to focus the attention on the area of the eyes.
This encourages people, (significantly men) to look for a more extended period at a woman.
Encouraging men to look longer actually represents a form of seduction; it cleverly gives the appearance of the man being the active agent.
Women use very bright colours of make-up to draw attention to their mouth.
The implicit purpose is to subliminally demonstrate (to men) the sexual desirability and availability of the women.
Make up is also used to create an aura; it could be viewed as generally a false aura, an illusion.
Women also want attention and attraction for purposes other than sexual encounters…in turn his arousal may make him more helpful, or more compliant.”
