I don't care about scars, acne, dark circles, or dryness cause I have all those, but myself and most other men (gay or hetero) don't wear make-up. So why should one sex be forced to cover their face, while the other looks at physical scarring to be manly, or the see themselves as "battle-scarred?"(yes I have heard douche bags use the word battle-scar to describe their own scars none of which where received in any kind of battle)
I also think that people shouldn't feel pressurised into wearing makeup etc., but it might be important to consider that some people might be choosing to do so because they like it, and it might be equally restrictive for them if they are pressured to not wear any, or if it's implied that they are 'in the wrong' for wanting to/that they are weak/fake etc. for unintentionally appearing as though they are succumbing to societal pressures to wear makeup or dress a certain way. (I wasn't suggesting that you were doing these things, just wanted to share in case its relevant).
