If many Asian and Korean countries men have adopted the use of makeup in their society why is it in the westernized society in men are criticized?

In places like us and Canada it’s not accepted the way Asian and Korean is for men

The difference in attitudes towards men wearing makeup between Asian and Western societies can be attributed to cultural norms and societal expectations. In many Asian countries, the use of makeup for men has been traditionally accepted and even praised as a symbol of refinement and grooming. On the other hand, in Western societies, masculinity has historically been associated with physical strength and toughness, and the use of makeup has been seen as feminine and therefore emasculating.

However, in recent years, there has been a growing trend of men in Western societies experimenting with makeup, and many people are beginning to challenge traditional gender norms and expectations. As societal attitudes continue to evolve, it's likely that the acceptance of men wearing makeup will become more widespread in Western cultures as well. Ultimately, the decision to wear makeup or not should be a personal choice that is not judged based on gender or cultural background.
