I see a lot of negative comments on posts where a guy is talking about his skincare routine or giving info on how to do something etc etc.

I see a lot of comments and most of them are calling the guy out as gay. Like wtf? He’s telling something useful to a LOT of people and you are calling him gay for taking care of himself? And since when being called gay is an insult?

Same with some guy talking about any cosmetic product.

Damn. Some people are weird.

I apologize if this seems like a rant here, I have faced a lot of judgmental people too being in the beauty and skincare industry that’s why I hate it when guys are judged for doing what they love.

p.s I am a straight guy with interest in beauty and skincare. I do regular skincare and I work with people who are formulators of cosmetics.

Also off topic but I appreciate this subreddit so much. It gives me so much insights into what people want and helps me in the work.

    When I first met my boyfriend, he told me he had a skincare routine and I honestly found it so attractive!! We’ve been together for six years now and he still takes great care of his skin. Obviously I know this is anecdotal and doesn’t really do anything to dispel stereotypes, but it’s a reminder that not everyone would care or have a bad opinion about such a thing.
