This is supposed to damn Jordan Peterson—some are using his words to claim he’s opposed to hiring women. Couldn’t be farther from the truth. Makeup is intended to sexually stimulate, but not necessarily court. Making oneself desirable is self-empowering.pic.twitter.com/pE1HArtmm6

I very clearly did not say that makeup is worn for the pleasure of men. I stated quite clearly that it can be used to feel self-empowered (i.e. attractive and confident in your looks).

Quite literally, the only part of your post that doesn't suggest that it's for that is "but not necessarily to court". Which you then even go against by saying sex is a scepter.

Perhaps you mean sexuality is a scepter. But even then, not all women use their appearance for gain. Mostly make up is normalized and expected, if anything, it's been weaponized against women that feel that they have to compete at that level.

But I'm certainly not going to try determine the use in all cases. If anything is clear, it's that JBP is hardcore trad. Same could be read into his bit on crazy women. But I'm drinking whiskey and not really in the mood to deconstruct the oh might Peterson lol.
