Eyebrows: the struggle is real


Rowan

Recommended Posts

Ok ladies, since I can't shape my eyebrows how I'd like since I'm not out, I'm looking for some advice on how I can make them work. I've used the glue stick method before with some success, but that takes soooo long. Any pointers?

Actual Mustache Wax is good for use under foundation when you are on your own. It will wash off with the foundation. Put the wax on, do your foundation and then use a powder makeup on a brush to shape them.

You could also just go have your eyebrows cleaned up at a waxing place, I see guys at my store all the time. They do not get the fine line brows, but even women are going a bit thicker these days.

Thank you! I have noticed that women are keeping theirs a bit thicker, which is good news for me. I usually try to keep mine pretty clean with tweezers, though it has been a while since I actually got them waxed. I was thinking I could do a little bit of shaping on them to help, but not so much to give me away, lol.

Plan One: Fourth of July weekend you could have an accident with too much charcoal lighter on the barbi!

Plan Two: As Vicky said, a lot of guys do this. Too bad the nice Asian person doing it did not understand you just wanted to trim them up a bit or that you did not understand that your manicure came with nail polish!

Plan Three: The Salami Method. Thin slice by thin slice, less and less eyebrows or for that matter, anything that bothers you about being male.

Hahaha! Smiled the entire time reading this!

I've kept my eyebrows trimmed with tweezers. Mine are not super thin, but they certainly are not bushy either. So far my conservative relatives have not noticed any discernible difference. So long as you don't remove them entirely, I don't think anyone will care.

      What do you do when you feel triggered?

      WEARINESS When stress from adverse or challenging events in life occur continually, you can find yourself in a state of feeling emotionally worn out and drained. This is called emotional exhaustion. For most people, emotional exhaustion tends to build up slowly over time.

      I am glad your schools are flush with excess spending money, but that is not the situation here in CA.  Back in 1978 an Initiative and Referendum law was passed that limited property taxes severely and basically cut funding from Property Taxes to pennies of the amounts needed to even minimally fund school districts.  Even the U.S. Supreme Court which upheld the law on Federal and Constitutional grounds nevertheless wryly commented in its decision that the state electorate had lost its collective mind in enacting the law.  Our schools are funded through the State's General Fund which receives other tax sources for creating the entire state budget. The General Fund and the legislature try to give  adequate funding  to the primary and secondary school districts as well as college districts and other obligations all from the same limited funds. There are also strict limits on assessing property taxes that actually prevent them from paying for other services directly affecting property ownership which is their proper place, and so even property related services come from our General Fund. Your property tax money seems to be ear-marked for schools which is wonderful and I hope they use it according to your thoughts, but as said we have a different problem out here in CA.  I love my state but do recognize its short comings.  Point of information, the tax law that is creating problems came from the same small area of the state as the proposed referendum on Trans Youth.

      The numbers of those negatively affected are significant and discouraging, but the good news is that "over half" of Trans youth live in safe states, and such states do exist.

      Seems like a reasonable agreement.  Seattle stays out of Texas, Texas stays out of Seattle.  Weird that the Seattle hospital had a business license in Texas...

      Seems to me the time and cost is already being spent....on lawsuits.  And schools are absolutely flush with cash, at least around here.  They get enough property taxes, they need to learn appropriate use of funds.  Buy a few less computers and a few more bathrooms, and spend less time on athletics and I'd bet you a hamburger that the issue would be solved in a year.   To me, it seems like the whole bathroom thing is like lancing a boil or a cyst.  A sharp initial pain, and done. People are just resistant to doing it.      I think I could solve most of it...but politicians get too much press off of this to want it solved.   1.  Universal use of individual, gender-neutral, private bathrooms 2.  Universal use of individual, gender-neutral, private spaces for changing athletic clothes 3.  Emphasize co-ed rather than gendered sports.  Focus on physical activity, good sportsmanship, and having FUN.  Lifelong enjoyment, not just competition. 4.  Ban for-profit athletic programs at highschool and college levels, and ban betting/gambling related to athletic programs at educational institutions. 5.  Affirm parental rights consistently, rather than treating it like a salad bar.  That means permitting gender-affirming healthcare with parental consent, AND prohibiting schools keeping secrets from parents.  Adopt the "paperwork principle."  If it is on paper, parents 100% have a right to know about it and be informed on paper, including names/pronouns if such are documented.  If it is verbal only, it is informal enough to be overlooked or discussed verbally if needed.
