Is this a red flag and a sign that the guy is not that HV? I know some men say this after they've been rejected by extremely attractive women or women into makeup due to sour grapes. I know everyone has their own preferences but given how so many men "simp" for extremely attractive female celebrities, influencers, and porn stars with makeup, I really have trouble believing some men hate women like that.

I'd even go as far as saying that any time a man makes any kind of broad negative statement about a group of women, it's a red flag. It shows he is comfortable painting women with the same brush and in this case, that he has a Madonna/whore complex. That's also why we sit and back and observe: sexist men will out themselves so quickly because they say these things entirely unprompted, as if the world had been waiting for their opinion on women who are/do X. Men who can't help but shout their dislike of women into the world are not HV. At all.
Men will say they dislike women being into make up, make you stop wearing the make up you love and then cheat on you with a woman that has heavy make on while he fucks her.
Goes in line with saying they don't like women that show their bodies and proceed to heart every ig thots post. They really just meant they don't like when you do it because they don't want any man to have the benefit of seeing you naked. They want that exclusive right while spending all their free time trying to see as many different women naked as possible.
They don't like women looking too beautiful or wearing make up because they don't like women drawing too much attention to themselves. They think wearing sultry make up is a woman wearing a "fuck me" sign. They will still cheat on you with said women though.
It's a red flag whenever men think people want to know their negative opions about *insert random group of women here*. It suggests that he's bitter, controlling and has a madonna/whore complex. Block and delete.
Some men will request a woman "dress down"...it's a tactic to make her stand out less to other men. He know's he's a scrote and she can do better, so he tries to make her less eyecatching. It's like visual negging. Any man with a strong opinion on women's appearances=an instant NEXT
To be fair, some of today's makeup looks are truly awful (heavy countouring, spider lashes, obviously fake heavy brows). I think it's normal for men to not like that. I think the only red flag is when they claim to not like women wearing any makeup at all.
I think it’s an ok thing when men don’t necessarily appreciate the time and effort it takes but criticising it is something else. I rarely wear makeup and my boyfriend thinks I’m beautiful. When I make an effort (for fancy parties etc) he always tries to compliment me in an extra way. It’s funny to me because he’s pretty bad at it and I know it’s because he feels he can’t kiss me if I’m wearing lipstick etc. So I know that the made up look isn’t his thing and that works for me. But if he was the kind of scrote that criticises women who have that look, we wouldn’t be together.
I feel men in general have an outsized fear or anxiety of being made to feel foolish, or allowing anybody to ‘get one over on them’. They view makeup as a bit of a trick, or deceptive, but they can only feel that way if they believe the makeup is done with themselves (and/or other men) in mind, rather than considering a woman does it because she likes the way it makes her look.
That said, Im as guilty as anybody for saying ‘ugh, I hate this new trend of xyz’ in men’s fashion, be it that stuuuuupid short-sides, long top haircut, or skinny jeans, or looong tshirts. By the same token, Im judging based on the idea that men dress to present themselves to women like me, rather than just because they like the way they look.
I had a boyfriend tell me to stop wearing makeup and painting my nails. I don't miss him. He was miserable and wanted me to be too. Whatever lol
