I think that most males would enjoy beauty products, though. Even current trends in marketing point out that men also want to take care of their skin, among other things. If they had the option and weren't raised to think it was womanly (or gay), you can't convince me that most men would not buy and use more products. And I'm not stereotyping, because I also fully acknowledge that there are plenty of women who don't enjoy beauty products, either. I just know that current numbers are significantly skewed because of societal pressure. I also majored in cultural anthropology, so this is not something that I'll concede. :p I don't believe in many inherent differences among males and females. Too much evidence points in this direction.
you went astray as soon as you used the word "most" connected to "men" in relation to the rest of your comments.

There's no one doing Alegion tagging hits. I'm putting tags then reviewing my own work :\

EDIT: Hard to be objective.

That's how the HITS went last week for the conceptual images. Took forever for those batches to die. But I'm glad I got them because they saved me last week.

That's why I said "I think". At that point, I was asserting a personal opinion. Factually, I would have said "a lot". But shh. I don't want to get yelled at. :p

Well apparently almost no one did well enough to get the qual so you might be stuck doing that. Can you develop a split personality?

for me, beauty products just seem... boring.

It's okay, I understand why. If people get mad at each other, or other people jump all over it, I have no doubt that it can escalate very quickly. Thanks for understanding and being willing to talk, though.
