Speaking seriously, what's your opinion about make-up on male faces? It's true, as Darina said, that: "All the skaters apply makeup when performing in shows and competitions", but honestly I don't like a male face with an heavy make-up. I'm glad that Plushy left at home that orange blush and the eye powder, and decided for a lighter look
He's handsome just the way he is, he doesn't need any make-up to enhance his beauty, that depends on his natural charm and character of a winner also able to be witty, funny, sweet.
Generally, I don't like male faces with make-up, I have nothing against those who decide to put it, and it's not a matter of being gay or heterosexual ... Simply, I like a man's face without all that stuff on! Yes, maybe a little bit of colorless powder, just to hide the sweat, but nothing else, thank you!
As for the the other topic ("The Figure Skating is the GAYEST sport of all", as Johnny Weir said), it's ok, no problem, I have nothing against gay people, they can be gay, heterosexual or bisexual as they like! But just because of the fact that the Figure Skating is the "gayest sport of all", I really appreciate a man if he's not gay and, "despite" this, he's a champ of Figure Skating.. It's a matter of "the beauty of the minority", lol!

I agree with you. I like Johnny, but i like better, Zhenya, and i like that he isn't gay. I'm proud of Zhenya!!!
I understand, why need make up for men. If they not use, not visible their faces on ice. Just a white patch would be visible.

Thank you for your reply, Lala!

As for the pale faces disappearing on the white ice... Well, I agree with some make-up, but "light", I don't like the exaggerations! Look at these two pictures: the first one is Plushy, perfoming on ice without any make-up (apart some powder for hidding the sweat); in the second picture is Johnny in an advertising shot. Well, can we really say that Plushy "disappears" only because he hasn't on his face a make-up like that?

Johnny is Johnny! I think his makeup is a real work of art

And here is cute Zhenya, Tatiana Navka and some powder

I agree with you. I like this pic. Evgeni has expressive and suggestive eyes. Not need more make- up. Johnny is another team.... ( But i like: When im good, im good.But when im bad...im better ;)

I think that I must explain better my thoughts. The makeup used by a skater for hiding the sweat and the redness of toil (like in the picture showing Zhenya and Tatiana) is not the same thing of a make-up very emphasized, "theatrical", used by Johnny Weir for some performances ("Poker Face", "Bad Romance" etc), and that we can condense in the picture above: the first one is necessary, I would say "essential"; the second is beautiful, a work of art as you rightly say, and I really love it!

Yet another story is the makeup that turns a man's face into a woman's face: this is the kind of makeup that I don't like on male faces, nor on Johnny Weir, nor on any other man.

This is why i don't like Rippon. I'm sorry, his looks beautiful, but he is too girlish. And his skating is also girlish. And the americans think, this is the artistic skating. I disagree, i like the masculine skating, like Zhenya's or Jag's skating.

Ah ah, Darina! Your tongue is even worse than mine!

I totally agree with you Lala
Rippon is a really talented skater, but when I watch him, I get blood sugar crisis, and his "girlish style" bores me even if he could jump a fivefold!
