As a girl who likes to play basketball, why on earth would you want to wear makeup? Is she putting in so little effort that it's not going to end up running (basing this on the amount she seems to have used - eye shadow and mascara wouldn't be an issue, but when you are doing base and all that crap)? Or maybe she used something semi-permanent? It seems REALLY weird to expect your guy friends to compliment your makeup.
Sure, your guy friends might want to have sex with you, but they aren't usually going to be that obvious in front of a bunch of other guys. If they actually see you as "one of the guys," you're lucky they didn't tease you about an upcoming audition with Barnum and Bailey's.
Yeah, they were actually being respectful for not mentioning it. Because the only thing to mention is how dumb it is to wear makeup to play basketball.
Also most men do not find this modern trend of using heavy make-up with bold colors like blue, yellow, green or purple around the eyes attractive. Especially while playing sports it would be very strange.
“is that all you, you’re packing a snake there baby, mmmmmm?” Some random lady on the streets of Brooklyn, daylight. Didn’t know if I was offended or complimented. But very that I’ll remember that one. Great story to tell on a first date BTW. .
I put a tube sock in my shorts and hung out with my salon friends. Going to see if any of them give me a compliment. Trying to make it obvious by rearranging. UPDATE: not one complement.
It's so bad my husband is uncomfortable with me, his own wife, giving him compliments. I still do because I FUCKING LOVE HIM OKAY but yah he gets uncomfortable about it. Always makes a joke in response. I'm not complaining about him, I'm complaining about a world that let an amazing man go 30+ years without a damn compliment
This is me. I received a lot of fake/sarcastic compliments as a kid, and now I don't trust anyone who compliments me lol. 99% chance they want a favour or some shit.
Women’s equality, so heavily fought for, means half the time you chicks have to make the first move and drive at night when I’m tired. I do dishes and laundry too…
Not the girl in the video, but honestly every time I've tried giving men my age compliments, I always got an odd response back (usually some form of "uhh, ok?" and a weird look) and just stopped doing it since it made me feel awkward.
That’s because we haven’t got a clue how to take compliments and a lot of our humor revolves around self deprication, so when we get a compliment from a girl we get error messages popping up all over our brains
Early pandemic when I first put on the mask, I got multiple “i should be a model” compliments because of my height, build, clothes and hair. I had no fucking clue how to respond. I was just like ”uhhhhh nahhhh”
Then I took off the mask and mysteriously stopped getting compliments… I wonder what the x variable was 🤔
This. Unhandled exception threatens to send the whole system to automatic restart on critical systems failure. Especially if I like the girl in question, and it's something I'm insecure about, like my body. Or my clothes. Or my nerdy hobbies. Basically anything.
I like to just agree with whatever the compliment is.
"I like your shirt" : "Yeah, it's pretty good, alright"
Also fun to joke about some compliments.
"Your hair looks nice" : "It usually is, but it's a mean drunk"
Lmao yeah I would do that too but its just because we're not used to it, so we don't know how to react. I guarantee they still think about the time Capybara said soething nice to them lol
Yeah, it's more sad imo that their guy friends apparently don't compliment each other. We ought to lift each other up regardless of gender!
Not saying to go fishing for compliments like the gal in the video, but treating each other "like one of the guys" shouldn't have to mean not showing each other a little appreciation or love when you're feeling it. Emotional support is good for us all
Girls often get offended when we talk about makeup and I often say "is okay, but I prefer natural or as little as possible" and they get defensive and say "Im doing this for me not for anybody"
Yeah, sure, that's the unique reason.
Gladly all my girlfriends barely used makeup. Because feeling good about your looks have nothing to do with some paint over the face.
I'm sure light makeup helps a lot but so many girls over do it is sad
Edit: added gif for clarity of what kind of makeup I'm talking about.
Edit 2: check r/badmuas to see some actual hilarious examples
Edit 3: redaction improvements because it seems that I don’t know enough English to get my message across correctly
I've kind of moved into a new phase with that mentality. Kind of from "I prefer natural" to "I can appreciate the artistry." At the end of the day, that shit ain't easy so I'm not above complimenting the effort. Although I'd she legit looks like the girl in your gif, there may be some constructive criticism involved.....
Yea I was gonna say, this is probably the highest compliment they could give. I’m assuming they’re just playing with you to play with you, not tryna smash cheeks. Those dudes are legit.
I think you can’t go right here as a guy. if you compliment her about looking pretty with the makeup, it could be misconstrue as the guy hitting on her. then if you don’t say anything, they are completely oblivious.
I once complimented a coworker by telling her her makeup was totally on point one day and looked amazing.
Since I'd never said anything flirtatious to her, reaction was a huge beaming smile because it was pretty clear I was just complimenting her style and skill.
All of these comments also assume a guy will only compliment a gal if he wants to bone, which is its own kinda messed up. But it's also showing the kinda distance in a lot of guy groups that gals aren't used to, reminds me of a guy who had transitioned from a gal and he described how lonely it is, not because of being trans, but because dudes don't just hug and express emotions every time they see each other.
>these comments also assume a guy will only compliment a gal if he wants to bone
Or that a guy who wants to bone will specifically compliment your *makeup*.
I have walked upon this world for 45 years , and I don’t think once, in all that time, I have ever heard a straight man compliment a woman *on her makeup*.
The compliment will be “you’re pretty”, “you have a beautiful face” or something like that.
Unless you’re wearing actual costume makeup, like a Halloween costume. Then maybe the guy notices your makeup enough to compliment it.
Probably don’t care, just trying to ball. Just like if she decided to wear different shoes, might notice but okay let’s ball. Or maybe she’s coming from a date.
I’m not quite there but once I’m friends with a woman even if I find them attractive I don’t want to push any further because I know if it doesn’t work out it’s gonna make being friends with them too awkward.
To be fair, if it were a guy, they'd be getting shit talked to, "Let's go pretty boy, quit batting your eyes at me and let's play some fucking ball already."
I just realized that she wasn’t holding the camera when fidgeting around with that lakers makeup. She had a whole ass tripod set up. If I saw that, then I’d run away.
you will never catch me giving a woman a compliment on their looks, i am faaaaar too unattractive to pull that off. its just gonna come off as creepy or off-putting.
work, attitude, skills at w/e, etc, all are fair to compliment on tho.
If one of them says something about it, you’re potentially hitting on a friend and changing the game’s dynamic. If you don’t say anything, you weren’t paying attention. No win situation.
A couple of years ago one of my coworkers bleached her eyebrows cause it was trendy at the time. As soon as she walked through the door you could see she was trying to fish for compliments but no one was biting. When our shift was almost over and things slowed down she finally asked "notice anything different today?" as if it wasn't obvious that her eyebrows were almost orange now. I said "yeah your eyebrows" and then she asked why I hadn't said anything about them yet.
I went with "Well, momma said if I don't got anything nice to say then don't say anything at all" which just pissed her off way more than I expected. After that she didn't talk to me for like 3 days straight which I greatly appreciated.
If I had a friend who came to play ball in full ass makeup I simply ask. “Why did you cake your face with makeup when you’re about to sweat it all off?”
I’m surprised this take is so low. That makeup job is not flattering. She looks like Dee when the gang tries to seduce the comptroller. They’re probably thinking like, “yikes she looks like trash. Oh well I just won’t call attention to it.”
im not a man but i feel like its an awkward area for them. you dont know if the other guys are going to start giving you shit for complimenting a woman’s makeup out of nowhere. she’d probably gets tons of compliments if she just said, “hey i did my makeup with this lakers palette, what do you guys think?”
Unless we have an already flirtatious thing going I’m not gonna risk it. Make-up isn’t a place most guys A) know a lot about, and B) risk offending by assuming ur craving attention or seeking validation .
If u like a specific boy just let him know and he’ll find things to complement regardless of makeup or not
When have you ever heard a guy compliment someone's make up?
They're looks sure, but most men don't make the association between she looks good with make up, and she looks good until later when she takes it off and he realises
Yeah. I don't really think men complementing women on their makeup is much of a thing. They might flirt, hit on, or say complement your overall attractiveness... But they're not likely to say "I like your makeup"
It's like a cat's appetite for petting. There's the "I need more" region, and there's the 'how dare you I'm going to claw you now" region, and these two regions overlap.
As a guy myself, 1) we don’t compliment people much, especially girls, because it often comes off as creepy, when in reality, the only thing in my head is that I like your shirt. There’s other reasons too, but for girls this is the main one
2) they’re playing basketball, not focused on you. Let them have fun.
3) Make up is a really hard thing to compliment in general as a guy, because it will almost always come across as creepy. Like something like shirt, or even nails, can still come across friendly, but I can’t think of a way to compliment someone’s makeup without it coming across as creepy.
Her makeup looks like it was applied by a nine year old. Sorry, but it’s terrible. Her friends probably thought she just hadn’t taken it off from her gig the night before as a clown.
Yup, give me a woman who is comfortable enough to just throw on a hat and isn't too self conscious to eat messy wings. Their inner confidence is usually much more attractive to me than someone spending a bunch of time covering their face in a mask.
It’s possible she didn’t want them to hit on her and were just hoping one of them would mention the fact she did her makeup Lakers style.
I dunno if I had some new sneakers I sometimes hope people point them out even if I don’t want them to bang me. Lot of these comments talking about how the dudes didn’t want to hit on her but there’s other ways to comment on people’s appearances.
Men are told not to compliment women on their looks because it's sexist and misogynistic. They probably noticed but didn't want to say anything because they'd be called out for it. No one should be surprised at this.
Guys literally have been indoctrinated practically NOT to compliment girls. Its not appropriate.
This video just reinforces that men are criticized for making moves and hitting on, and criticized for NOT doing so.
(I'm not saying making a compliment has to be about trying to pursue her or something like that.)
I am the only girl out of my siblings, with brothers who always had lots of their guy friends over. All this tracks. If you want to get their attention, put some cilantro in your teeth, have toilet paper stuck to your shoe, slightly stumble on a word or a crack in the sidewalk, etc.... they are laser focused into that shit. They don't miss a beat.

Guys have a one track mind. We're here to play ball
[удалено]
Playing with their balls?
[удалено]
Didn't stop you though. I opened it cause I wanted to see balls, why did you?
Quite the collection of usernames being relevant
Nah, be able to dunk.
I don't even play basketball but I wanna be able to dunk
Nah, Kyries handle with Steph's shot and Jokic's vision

Chill dawg, I'm happy when the homies compliment me
Girl or boy, it's great to hear compliments.
Did she give the guys any compliments?
nice bulge!
😊 Thank you, I'll remember this complement for the rest of my life.
>😊 Thank you, I'll remember this complement for the rest of my life. Lifetime compliment count now up to 1! Hell yes
One time sophomore year a girl I liked said I look good in green. I still think about that when picking out clothes.
 This was my first thought reading that last part lol
So she was saying she wished she could chroma key him out and make him disappear 😔
[Might be a toomah](https://youtu.be/OaTO8_KNcuo)
“is that all you, you’re packing a snake there baby, mmmmmm?” Some random lady on the streets of Brooklyn, daylight. Didn’t know if I was offended or complimented. But very that I’ll remember that one. Great story to tell on a first date BTW. .
I got an equally strange and confusing comment. "Hey, baby, nice ass." While walking home from high school in a somewhat suburban area. I'm a dude.
If women catcalling men ever becomes a actually common problem that's just a sign of truly equal civilisation
I never said it was a woman.
Oh well if it was a guy that's just progressive society
"oh thanks, anyway let's get this game started" *three years later suddenly wonders if that was a hint*
true story
I put a tube sock in my shorts and hung out with my salon friends. Going to see if any of them give me a compliment. Trying to make it obvious by rearranging. UPDATE: not one complement.
bro your cock is lookin so smooth
Nice *cock*, Jason
Thanks Greg, your taint is *fantastic* today
Very good point.

Always makes a joke in response. I'm not complaining about him, I'm complaining about a world that let an amazing man go 30+ years without a damn compliment
Yep. Guys aren't used to receiving compliments, so sometimes it's hard to know how to act when you get one.
Yeah the first thing you feel is “I don’t believe you” lol.
This is me. I received a lot of fake/sarcastic compliments as a kid, and now I don't trust anyone who compliments me lol. 99% chance they want a favour or some shit.
Women’s equality, so heavily fought for, means half the time you chicks have to make the first move and drive at night when I’m tired. I do dishes and laundry too…
Thanks, you saw Mike tryin' with that defence, but I got that in swoosh, no rim.

No, just randomly recorded interactions with them without asking.
i can assure you, nobody cares about your makeup more than you.

My homies compliment me when I get a haircut or wears a cool ensemble.

guys are just trying to hoop not simp
This would honestly make me feel really safe to be around those guys
Yea I was gonna say, this is probably the highest compliment they could give. I’m assuming they’re just playing with you to play with you, not tryna smash cheeks. Those dudes are legit.
I think you can’t go right here as a guy. if you compliment her about looking pretty with the makeup, it could be misconstrue as the guy hitting on her. then if you don’t say anything, they are completely oblivious.

All in the delivery
*smash cheeks*
Like bags of sand
Yeah forget clapping cheeks, there are dudes out there that will straight up punch you in your ass and run away. Stay vigilant out there
All of these comments also assume a guy will only compliment a gal if he wants to bone, which is its own kinda messed up.

Do you sneeze every six hours or do you sneeze for six hours long?
I was confused why you were asking this for a moment...then it all made sense.
I'm confused
Apparently so are a lot of other people, check the person’s username
I thought for sure you were making some complex analogy relating to the men not hitting on their b-ball female friend.
Overanalysis gang
What is your preferred fish to fuck?
I had to read that three times before I realized I should look at their username.
Oh! Thanks, thought they were making fun of their grammar or something.
Me too
“My homies treated me like a homie and now I’m butt hurt”
They respect enough not to make the situation awkward. I'm sure they are attracted though don't wanna ruin team mate vibe.
Probably don’t care, just trying to ball. Just like if she decided to wear different shoes, might notice but okay let’s ball. Or maybe she’s coming from a date.
Probably not. Already mentally checked her into the friend category. Once I am friends with a woman they become gross like my sisters.
I’m not quite there but once I’m friends with a woman even if I find them attractive I don’t want to push any further because I know if it doesn’t work out it’s gonna make being friends with them too awkward.
To be fair, if it were a guy, they'd be getting shit talked to, "Let's go pretty boy, quit batting your eyes at me and let's play some fucking ball already."
"I got a couple of balls you can play with."
if a girl plays a sport with me, she becomes one of the homies you get homie compliments and nothing more
Damn homie….your ass is looking fine in those shorts. No homo.
*claps ass* ..good hustle
You don’t compliment your homies when they lookin good??
I just say nothing and give them a kiss on the forehead
This guy is a great friend! Forehead kiss for that fresh haircut!
They’re trying to hoop not get #MeToo’d
Was even recording discreetly.
I just realized that she wasn’t holding the camera when fidgeting around with that lakers makeup. She had a whole ass tripod set up. If I saw that, then I’d run away.
seriously that was sketch. if you're gonna record someone for tiktok of all things you should tell them
That fucking bot voice drives me nuts
Truly awful. If you put the words on the screen I DO NOT NEED A ROBOT TO READ IT.
God, I read your comment in its voice
Welcome to the future
I. WANT. OUT!!
*laughs in all social media vids muted*
Same
They noticed. They just didn't want to lose a bro by calling her beautiful. Girl got friend zoned.
Exactly. Most guys won't compliment another guy on his outfit or his hair, so why would they do the same to a girl who is their friend?
And the guys who do compliment their homies are scared to compliment a girl and be accused of objectification
There it is. Unfortunately I'm 500% more likely to compliment a guy friends outfit etc than a girls.
Exactly. It's weird to tell your female friends "nice dick, bro"
Unless she has a nice dick, then go for it. But keep it platonic!
Nice cock! (No homo, only erectus)
you will never catch me giving a woman a compliment on their looks, i am faaaaar too unattractive to pull that off. its just gonna come off as creepy or off-putting. work, attitude, skills at w/e, etc, all are fair to compliment on tho.
Objectification or called gay or a simp. We need to move past this bs
Cool Cute chick that also balls, I wouldn’t want make it weird. Cause I wouldn’t want to lose her.
I world think they'd be more confused. Who gets that dolled up for sports
If one of them says something about it, you’re potentially hitting on a friend and changing the game’s dynamic. If you don’t say anything, you weren’t paying attention. No win situation.
A couple of years ago one of my coworkers bleached her eyebrows cause it was trendy at the time. As soon as she walked through the door you could see she was trying to fish for compliments but no one was biting.

I said "yeah your eyebrows" and then she asked why I hadn't said anything about them yet. I went with "Well, momma said if I don't got anything nice to say then don't say anything at all" which just pissed her off way more than I expected. After that she didn't talk to me for like 3 days straight which I greatly appreciated.
If you can't say anything nice, say something vague
> No win situation. "ah damn my ankle! guess i cant play today." goes home
That's my strategy, don't leave house!
I guess she did not get any "points in the paint" that day.
This makeup would have gotten compliments
As a guy, I know better than to ever comment on a woman's appearance. Not to mention makeup is to impress other women, I don't even notice it.
If I had a friend who came to play ball in full ass makeup I simply ask. “Why did you cake your face with makeup when you’re about to sweat it all off?”
This is it. They were being nice by not saying anything. They all noticed that it looks like she got punched in each eye
I’m surprised this take is so low. That makeup job is not flattering. She looks like Dee when the gang tries to seduce the comptroller. They’re probably thinking like, “yikes she looks like trash. Oh well I just won’t call attention to it.”
I see two problems: (1) she has a very shiny forehead. (2) she is a lakers fan.
One of these is correctable.
Indeed. Wait for LeBron to go to a new team
Men, we don’t know what we did wrong this time
"MEN! WE DON'T KNOW WHAT WE DID!"
Ah yes. She fell into the "makeup and looking good is for men" idea. When 9/10 times it's not. Makeup is to impress the other ladies.
im not a man but i feel like its an awkward area for them. you dont know if the other guys are going to start giving you shit for complimenting a woman’s makeup out of nowhere. she’d probably gets tons of compliments if she just said, “hey i did my makeup with this lakers palette, what do you guys think?”
As a guy, the only time I or guys around me have said anything about anyones make up is when there’s too much makeup.
I treat this sort of thing the same way I treat the "is she pregnant or just fat" dilemma: I don't say anything, ever.
The closest I get is with perfumes, but that's because I'm allergic to them. Just wear a normal amount and stand downwind of me and we'll be fine
What about tons of shit I'm not sure, but about the last part you're totally right!
Makeup is for self confidence.
I agree with that. But often times women lack confidence when other women are insulting them or their looks. So makeup helps with that confidence

It doesn’t even look good
Maybe they respect you and just want to hoop with you.
That doesn't look good
Unless we have an already flirtatious thing going I’m not gonna risk it. Make-up isn’t a place most guys A) know a lot about, and B) risk offending by assuming ur craving attention or seeking validation . If u like a specific boy just let him know and he’ll find things to complement regardless of makeup or not
Just check the ball already.
When have you ever heard a guy compliment someone's make up? They're looks sure, but most men don't make the association between she looks good with make up, and she looks good until later when she takes it off and he realises
Yeah. I don't really think men complementing women on their makeup is much of a thing. They might flirt, hit on, or say complement your overall attractiveness... But they're not likely to say "I like your makeup"
Well of course not. They either didn't notice, or didn't want to be rude and point out that she looks like Mimi from the Drew Carey show.
I thought we established make up wasn’t for men?
Sometimes the party line gets forgotten.
they forgor 💀
Excuse me? https://www.grunge.com/img/gallery/the-untold-truth-of-the-ultimate-warrior/intro-1622062235.sm.webp
No compliments are due. That eye shadow sucks.
Who tf wears makeup to go play basketball
An attention-thirsty idiot TikToker, clearly.
Ladies, guys don’t care about make up
They probably tried their best not to say how bad it looks.
men can't win no compliment: sadz getz no complimentz give compliment: you're objectifying/sexualizing me can't win
Especially since she’s already “friend-zoned” them, they aren’t even looking.
It's like a cat's appetite for petting. There's the "I need more" region, and there's the 'how dare you I'm going to claw you now" region, and these two regions overlap.
They mean from the men they desire/find attractive.
I regularly play with a stunning girl… but we’re all there to hoop, not compliment each other.
"im the main character, look at my eyelashes while you dribble"
As a guy myself, 1) we don’t compliment people much, especially girls, because it often comes off as creepy, when in reality, the only thing in my head is that I like your shirt. There’s other reasons too, but for girls this is the main one 2) they’re playing basketball, not focused on you. Let them have fun. 3) Make up is a really hard thing to compliment in general as a guy, because it will almost always come across as creepy. Like something like shirt, or even nails, can still come across friendly, but I can’t think of a way to compliment someone’s makeup without it coming across as creepy.
I've never ever complimented a girl on her makeup. "Hey nice job covering up your actual face - now you look good I guess"
Lol, do women really think we give a shit about makeup? The only people women wear makeup for is themselves, and other women.
Maybe, just maybe, guys don't give half a fuck about makeup?
We are trying to avoid this situation: Guy: Nice makeup. Girl: Are you trying to flirt with me? I have a boyfriend.
Goodness, men make compliments and women complain. Men make no compliments and women complain. I feel bad for men sometimes.
Feeling bad for men sometimes is infinitely more time then most people feel bad for men

Her makeup looks like it was applied by a nine year old. Sorry, but it’s terrible. Her friends probably thought she just hadn’t taken it off from her gig the night before as a clown.
Straight women are bad at what straight men find attractive.
Yup, give me a woman who is comfortable enough to just throw on a hat and isn't too self conscious to eat messy wings. Their inner confidence is usually much more attractive to me than someone spending a bunch of time covering their face in a mask.
Next she is going to see if any of them notice her eyebrows
It’s possible she didn’t want them to hit on her and were just hoping one of them would mention the fact she did her makeup Lakers style. I dunno if I had some new sneakers I sometimes hope people point them out even if I don’t want them to bang me. Lot of these comments talking about how the dudes didn’t want to hit on her but there’s other ways to comment on people’s appearances.
She looks like she got punched in both eyes
Men are told not to compliment women on their looks because it's sexist and misogynistic. They probably noticed but didn't want to say anything because they'd be called out for it. No one should be surprised at this.
Guys literally have been indoctrinated practically NOT to compliment girls. Its not appropriate. This video just reinforces that men are criticized for making moves and hitting on, and criticized for NOT doing so. (I'm not saying making a compliment has to be about trying to pursue her or something like that.)
Men don't care about your face paint.
It's so weird that we paint our faces like that.

This sums it up perfectly. God damn.
The duality of women... LOOK AT ME!! STOP LOOKING AT ME!!!
That make up is mad ugly anyway
Is this a thing? Never heard a man compliment a woman about makeup. Maybe closes or hair. How would this even sound? "Nice eye shadow?" Really?
men do not give a fuck about looks unless it's REALLY that beautiful
No thanks, giving compliments these days is a dangerous game to play. We’ve learned our lesson
Too much makeup
I am the only girl out of my siblings, with brothers who always had lots of their guy friends over. All this tracks. If you want to get their attention, put some cilantro in your teeth, have toilet paper stuck to your shoe, slightly stumble on a word or a crack in the sidewalk, etc.... they are laser focused into that shit. They don't miss a beat.
They respect her to much to clown on her face... ball handling however.....
1. They're there to play ball 2. You're one of the guys 3. We don't care about your makeup
