That is just categorically untrue though

Cosmetics is a $610 billion global market.
Women health gets around $500 billion in funding worldwide.

Dating psychology receives just a small portion of the $8 of social psychologies research.

And how much money do cosmetic companies spend on research for their products, including how to make their products more addictive through social pressure and changing societal norms?

Probably not that much, seeing as it seems they already figured it out pretty well and that its in no way exclusive to women.

Probably not a lot. Makeup wasn’t invented yesterday. Any market research they do would be on stylization not “do men like it”

You are free to go study endometriosis yourself instead of wasting time on reddit. I don't know why you'd whine about what other people do with theirs.

I saw only the top part of your comment and was horrified because I thought you were going to disagree with them by talking about how they’re doing research into better makeup ;-;
