A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics (NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out)
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

I can wear a dress to work and nobody criticizes me. I’d be really sad if I had to wear pants all the time, they’re just not as comfortable. Let’s normalize pretty dresses for dudes!

I join my wife for mani pedis and always ask for color. I get so many weird looks. It's really sad that some color worn in the wrong place is unacceptable genderbending. Good thing I simply don't give a shit.

It does suck, and hopefully it's one of those things that continues to relax. Nail polish of any color automatically makes guys cuter, imo. Anyway, who doesn't want a little novelty

Eyeliner too. Anyone who’s seen Jason Momoa in game of thrones knows that shit is masculine as hell.

Oh, how could I possibly forget eyeliner. Practically every lead singer of every band rocks it to fantastic effect. Likely a good number of male actors on set. Tim Minchin has some great eye makeup in general, electrocuted squirrel that he is. Why does this only have to be a famous person thing?
