Do autistic women wear makeup?

Song

I would have started a poll but I can't see how to do that.

My daughter has just asked why I don't wear any make up, 

It's uncomfortable, makes my face itch, makes me look very odd and I can't do it myself and look like anything other than a clown but my husband says it's because I'm autistic, what do you think?

  • As a male I cannot see anything attractive about a woman whose face is caked in makeuo, making them look like some sort of puppet.  A bit  of lipsrick is ok by I hate the 'Greasy Look ' of plastered on make up.

    By the same token I don't like the appearance of anyone who spends time in the sun making their skin look like leather. In later years the cost of this becomes apparent in looking like a prune. The price of vanity!

    However if someone likes doing it it is no concern of mine. As I say to others who might not like the way I look or I say when I have my hair cut, it is not me who has to look at it.!
