    regulated not banned.

    i said its not a problem and no one makes complaints because its regulated...

    banned in regards to over the top makeup which is what this is really about.

    Sure cosmetics are there to make you more attractive, but I'd say most of the time it's for your own overconfidence and not to please others. And if anyone wants to go trough the trouble of wearing high heels I'd say let them.

    I think no makeup a dress code and no beard. It’s a job not a fashion show. Oh and no dresses or skirts. Kind of like the Amish.

    And I agree with you and disagree with Peterson. What I said in that original post was that you misquoted him. That's all - clarity is best for the discourse, and I wouldn't exactly be adding anything by solely expressing my agreement with 80% of this thread.

    I can't even really call it misogyny, because it's at least as dehumanizing about men, and their supposed inability to control themselves. Which is garbage. If you can't help sexually harassing a woman because she's wearing makeup and you think she's attractive, you're an abusive shithead, and you're the exception; most men aren't like you.

    There is a large difference between the argument you're presenting and one highlighting it's suitability for the workplace.

    What a stupid question.

    His argument about attractiveness can be extrapolated to infinity and applied to both sexes.

    So he’s basically saying we should all stop showering and wear garbage bags at all times.

    You also realize timestamps are a thing, right? Everyone can see you edited it after I called you out on your bullshit claim lol fucking pathetic.

    i decided to ask my mum and sister about the subject.

    mother says any makeup is unprofessional and my sister says makeup is for self conscious bitches. so guess in more open than they are too it.
    my 2nd post on this thread. and yes i went back and edited the post you seem to take ubridge with as clearly it needed clarity

    so you see no difference between what peterson is referring to as makeup and what is generally worn ?

    i don't meet many women who wear lots of makeup and red lipstick all the time

    There's a video on page 1 or 2 that someone linked. I couldn't link it in the OP because the browser I am using on my phone wouildn't let me. But be warned you won't find further context for what is quoted in the OP as its essentially verbatim.

    Peterson is a hack and his opinions should be treated as such.

    Your post is not only misogynistic but is also misandrist as it implies men are idiots.

    I like to have such girls in my workplace.


    I'm wondering if vegans use make-up too?

    the left really hates Peterson for some reason and are on a crusade to try and assassinate his caricature. hes proving a difficult guy for them to dismiss as he basically just quotes whats written in most study's on subjects and comments from Jungian philosophy and psychology on events.

    he him self is just a translator of Jung for the people and that makes him tough to crack without tackling Jung's work, which is hard as very few left political commentators have much background in that area. certainly not as much as Peterson.

    He is showing that once again the discussion about these subjects is skewed in favor of women trying to pretend they're being victimized. He is asking (albeit facetiously) what the rules should be regarding sexual harassment, because nobody seems to be able to figure that out without victimizing one gender over the other.
    See, this guy know better than to bite something out of context. I don't agree all the time with you POM, but right now I'm glad someone took the time to get the context.

    Peterson is hated by a subgroup of extremists because he reasons. His arguments actually have weight, so his opponents ends up making some pitiful textbook strawman.

    And no, I disagree on a few things with Peterson. But these kind of threads... jesus. The baits.
