Exactly, living in a culture where makeup is expected on women, I refuse to wear it in professional contexts as a feminist choice. When I go out I may throw on a dark red lip and a smokey eye with no foundation because I feel like it looks great on me.
I think it's all fine and good for men to have their own opinions on women's styles, and vice versa. But opinions on styles one doesn't wear should be kept to oneself unless asked for. And when it's related to the balancing acts women do to be perceived as socially acceptable it's a tightrope.
