Oh yes, violence against a child is acceptable when they say something you don't like. Do you have kids? How would you feel if someone bitch slapped you or laid a hand in anger on your child for making a blunt, yet honest observation?

Not fair that women can instantly enhance their looks and men just have to work with what they have.

You could wear make up. No one is stopping you.

There's a difference between applying and wearing makeup to enhance ones' natural features, and coating your face in that much 'slap' that you look like your face was gang banged by crayola & needing to use industrial cleaner as makeup remover. Remember, (when applying makeup) less is more.

Take it as a compliment. I have three rats (as they live in groups and are very social/smart). To me that would mean that you look cute.

Silly kid. Kids will say anything that pops up in their heads. You're beautiful with and without makeup :)

She's just a kid op, she doesn't know any better at that age. To her, she was probably just trying to impress you and that was her way of trying to make you laugh. I'm sure you looked just fine op. don't take it to heart!
