If a woman satisfies her natural and harmless needs to have a nice appearance. It is sinful when a woman artificially improves her appearance ONLY when she does this because of lust. Canon 96 of the 6th Ecumenical Council forbids women to fix their hair etc. when they want to corrupt those who see her("εν τή κεφαλή τρίχας πρός λύμην τών ορόντων").

Re: Make-up
Yes, and almost every woman will burn in Hell
This is strange.
Hmmm, roasting in hell... I guess it's good that I'm just naturally beautiful... :mrgreen: JK... I tend to wear make-up for business meetings, as it makes me look older (baby-faced, as I am, it's not good to meet clients & look like your just outta highschool). Every once in a while, on a night out, I will put it on, but it's not for the intention of drawing lust, or whatever, it's that if I am getting dressed up, a bit of makeup gives it a polished (ha, my friends would say, Ania, polished... ha) look. I very rarely wear makeup to church (usually on a Sat night if I have plans after vigil), and if I have lipstick/chapstick on before communion or venerating icons, I wipe it off. I wouldn't choose either of those options in the poll.

This poll is so weighted to one side by its wording that I cannot cast a vote. Let us try to make more options that a super negative one against our view and the one we want everyone to vote for in the future. There is a reason we allow 10 options in a poll.
