Found this on Facebook. The comments are evenly split between people insisting the faces look male and people insisting the faces look female. Lots of men with no makeup on talking about the β€œscience” of how makeup works.

how many levels of gender reaction do you have to be on for an androgynous face to somehow become an optical illusion? the not-so-secret third option of "hold up, why am i doing this?"

I think it’s a matter of entitlement. They feel entitled to know everyone’s gender at a glance and make snap judgements about them as a result

Okay, how do I change the contrast of my face tho

[–] FlakesBongler@hexbear.net 36 points 3 weeks ago

Walk around with a flashlight under your chin

Especially if you're good at going "OoOoOoOoOoOoOo"

estrogen makes your skin a bit lighter. theres also skin bleaching but its very bad for you

[–] Anvil_Lavigne@hexbear.net 15 points 3 weeks ago

it's too early to be wondering if there's a subculture within the greater edgelord network bleaching their faces joker-stare

I'm sorry you had to find out this way meow-hug

What next? You'll tell me that HRT won't stop me from pooping like a real girl too?????

[–] AcidSmiley@hexbear.net 10 points 3 weeks ago

You just need to be patient with that, it's a marathon, not a sprint. I'm two years on HRT and i've gone from one poop per hour (which is around the male average) to once a day, as you'd expect of a teenage girl. A lot of cis women do not cease bowel movements until they're in their mid twenties (this is why a lot of gen x women refer to the 1980s as "the poo poo days").

Very specific liighting can do it

[–] Feline@hexbear.net 3 points 2 weeks ago

This is why I walk around with a ring light suspended in front of my face

[–] miz@hexbear.net 24 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

"is female" vs. "looks male"

[–] Runcible@hexbear.net 10 points 3 weeks ago

While the phrasing comes off as obnoxious, I think this is just recognizing the gender of the subject

[–] Gorb@hexbear.net 15 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago) (1 children)

Women are HDR while men are SDR I'm YPbPr tho
