Best Answer

The answer to your question is that some straight, bisexual, and gay men wear makeup. Wearing makeup or not wearing it is not an indication of sexuality.

Gender roles are the roles that a culture expects people of a certain gender to take on. For example, for centuries, women were expected to stay at home to cook, clean, and have babies. Now our culture has changed so that women are expected to be providers for their family nearly as much as men. If you look at men in the 1700s, makeup was commonly worn on both men and women of nobility. It symbolized wealth and education in this culture.

Sexuality is based on what turns people on sexually. There are extremely masculine homosexuals as well as those that are very feminine. While an abundance of feminine traits often are found in some homosexuals, there are exceptions, so the only real way to determine if someone is gay is to ask them.

Why do men not wear lipstick?

Because they're afraid to. They think people will assume they're gay if they wear any visible makeup at all...and guys don't want people to think they're gay. (Note I said "visible" makeup...a LOT of men have discovered the benefits of covering up dark circles under the eyes and age spots, but that's about as far as most guys will go.) The strange thing about this "men who wear makeup are gay" theory is, some of the male celebrities who draw women to them like magnets, like Prince and Elvis, wore a lot of makeup. Elvis liked blue eyeshadow, James Dean wore mascara, Prince wears a ton of product...
