They don't actually understand "why" they do a single thing they do

I think they are telling the truth or at least part of it. They like to look feminine and to be seen as attractive and attract the attention of men.

I don't do it for men. I do it for myself

The word “ego” is mostly used in describing mens motives. Do you agree that women have strong egos too? I believe they feed off the attention they get when all dolled up weather it comes from male or female. “All the girls walk by dressed up for each other” -Van Morrison

Maybe it's just because they feel they look better to the wider world.

p.s. and little girls, who have no concept of this stuff yet...it’s dress up cuz it’s fun and pretty and makes them feel grown-up. And so what too.

That's 40-50% of it. But, random men do not compliment women on their looks/outfit. Random women do. Also, men do not make snide remarks about how women wear their makeup. Women do and all women engage in that behavior, so they're trying to avoid the criticism.

They do not know why they do it so they cannot admit it. Most woman are not equipped to reflect inward. They never had the need to do a gut check.

Who doesn’t love a good game

For the record as a woman I am appalled at the expectations on younger women to have so many fake things they don't even look like themselves.

I don't think most women "know" why they do it; they are inundated with media that makes it seem necessary. Not a lot of "women's media" asks women to think.
