    If you are looking at girl, but you think she wears too much makeup, casually say what you like, if she adjusts, then maybe see if she is worth dating (courting, I don't know what people want to call it.)  If she doesn't, move on to someone else.

    Yeah, just because someone has it on ... who knows what her motivation was?  Perhaps she just thought she needed to put it on so as not to be ignored, but in reality hated having to wear it.  That's the kind of thing to be careful about judging.  You might end up ruling out someone who would have made a terrific wife, due to some snap mistaken judgment.

    Absolutely no traditional Catholic (including priests) I’ve ever met have an issue with dancing, literature, art, alcohol… obviously sins can be committed involving all these things  eg alcohol in excess but in themselves they’re not sinful. I do agree with you about masks… we avoided them during the Covid shenanigans. Unnecessary dirty rags and won’t stop the spread of any viruses.
    It should be obvious that ballet is immodest from the clothes they wear to the movements they make. Any man can ask themselves if they think it's okay if their wife did that and allowed other men to watch. Same with ballroom dancing, the close proximity and touching is not okay. Really think about whether or not you would like your husband being close around other woman and holding them (as the dance requires) or if you doing so would make your own husband jealous.

    I have never met any Catholic who objects to ballet. In fact it’s considered very high class in some Latin Mass circles in England to attend the ballet and opera. Public dances have historically been social occasions and perfectly acceptable to dance with other people…Celidh dances in particular often happen in Catholic parishes. Of course anyone looking to be unfaithful to their spouse can use this to their advantage, but those people will use anything to their advantage if they have that in mind…If dancing is an occasion of sin for you, of course avoid it, but that is not the case for most people.

    That’s a really good point, you can’t judge what someone is like before finding out more information, motivations etc. I’m not a particular fan of caked on make up, especially fake eyelashes and thick foundation, I just don’t think it’s a sin and some women, especially younger ones as you say can put it on to be like their friends or because they’re insecure or because they have a few spots!!

    • It's quite interesting to me that in many species around the world the male and not the female is the beautiful one.

    Just think how beautiful you’d look if only God had made you a bird!  
    Check out this arachnid!  The ladies would be lining up to see you strut your stuff!
    Merry Christmas!

    Yes that an interesting. I can’t access your link as I’m in the UK. Keir Starmer probably thinks it’s offensive or something 😆 Talking about animals and completely off the point of the thread, but not only are some male animals more attractive than the female (pheasants for example) but in some species the female is physically stronger than the male and prone to kill the male after mating. Preying Mantises are one example of this.

    Merry Christmas! Animals don’t need make up that’s true. Though they also don’t wear clothes. Apart from my friends small dog who has a selection of little coats but she thinks he’s actually a baby I think 😲😆😆
