Do not comment on her food/drink's calories: It's plain rude to discuss how many calories are present within a womxn's meal. Also, it is deeply linked to sexism and body shaming, which shouldn't have a place when conversing with someone.
Don't mock the way she talks: The way she talks shouldn't matter – you should be paying attention to what she is saying. This is one of the rudest things someone can do to anyone, and it's very degrading. However, it's more common for womxn due to the heighten criticism of up-talking.
Don't tell her she needs make-up to look "nice": Make-up is not the key to success, and she certainly does not need to look "nice" for anyone but herself. Plus, some womxn prefer to go make-up free and feel confident! This shouldn't be a precursor for anyone to look nice. Men don't have the same standard, so stop pitting it against womxn.
