Can male soldiers wear lipstick, earrings and ripped clothes while off duty, but on post?

I know, and I know that there is no regulation that says military personnel cannot listen to crap, I mean RAP music, but they do it anyway. I find that to be offensive.

They should not be doing that in uniform. If they are not in uniform, though, and it is still physically hurting you, please see a doctor; there could be some other reason for your pain.

I really do not think they should, I am a 40+ year TIS retired 1SG. I say hell no. 1SG Ret. Billy Gates

Where do they think they're at Hollywood article 15 should be given to all

My initial answer was hell no but then again it wouldn't surprise me the way the military has changed the last few years.

Glad I'm out yo shit is way outta hand

What if he identifies as a female

1. Someone just informed me that earrings can now be worn my males off duty with the latest update to 670-1 (I didn't read it myself)
2. There is a possibility that the Soldier you encountered is transgender, which could be why he confidently said " call my command" and the command asked you to "read the regulation" They might be speaking of the transgender policy. if that is the case, I know from what we were thought in school (I am a clinical social worker) that Soldiers are allowed to wear certain getups that would usually be reserved for the opposite gender. He told us a story of how he had to approve PVT Manny to wear some subtle makeup and lipstick while he was in prison as a part of his transition into female.

Never gave the legitimacy of it much thought, but I have seen it.

I once ran across a squad leader from my platoon at the Class 6 and he was sporting earrings, black jump boots, black lipstick, and...well, I can be charitable and say it was a kilt, but I'm not so sure that being so charitable means being correct. It was an ACU patterned, pleated...oh let's just pretend it was a kilt.
