Legit question: what makes a guy attractive?
« on: March 07, 2012, 08:47:34 AM »
Srsly.
Like, face wise specifically.
I am always at odds with girls on this, guys i think are ass ugly girls are like "oh he's soooo cute"
and I think i'm below average, but everyone always just tells me to shut up and accept the fact that I'm hawt, or super cute, or whatever. And I just flat out don't get it. All these dudes on facebook with gross non-abs,  a v made of flubber rather than muscle, and girls are like "Damn, that's hot", every f#cking time. Practically more than on a guy with decent abs and definition. And people like me with huge ears, weird noses, and squinty messed up eyes are apparently attractive all of a sudden?

Girls, when did this happen??
Ten pushups, twenty crunches, twenty squats.

Abs, bro.

Age is just another obstacle. Get over it.

Listen, man. Girls who say "D#mn that's hot" about some douche taking a picture of himself in a mirror are FOOLS and are NOT the kind of girls you want.

Yes.

Quality of the girl is KEY. Also, doing a balanced ab workout which includes breaks followed by other body workouts does help sway the women a little ;) (Ex: 10 V-sits, followed by 10 push ups to give the abs a break for a little, followed by another ab workout, followed by 9 push ups, etc.)

Well heck yeah to the post about not needing them, they ARE fools usually.
Like, i like the girl I'm dating, she loves feeling my stomach and running her fingers along my V, but she couldn't give a shit less if I didn't have either, she loves my personality.

But she's a rare few around here...

Girls, when did this happen??

Girls are picky, take it from the guy who has been rejected by 100+ girls, that's in just two years. I totally hear what you're saying though, anecdote:

Sophmore year, my face was clean, my hair was well-groomed, my friend's face was covered with zits, hit hair was a chewbacca shit on his head, the girls loved him. Why? I'll never know, possibly because of his style, or maybe because he had darker skin, he wasn't black just a tanned Mexican.

Girls generally associate popularity with personality, and looks are a contributing factor to this:

  • Face, having an aligned face, non-crooked nose, non-bloodshot eyes, clear skin, and a decent smile is the meet and greet.
  • Arms, you can obviously show your arms more than most other parts of your body, bigger biceps and fore-arms means more girls.
  • Torso, again, it's all about muscle tone, seems shallow but that's all it is.
  • Legs, strong legs are good legs, women love strong legs.
  • Ass, a well-toned ass, to girls is either a "hot" ass or a "cute" ass, but that's all really.
Notice a pattern? It's all about how you look, silly but true, and this is what many girls are attracted to, because these girls are shallow. Height also has alot to do with attraction, a girl who is 4' 10" would rather date a guy 6' 3" than me who is 5' 7.5". Why? Based on instincts women sub-conciously believe that taller men are larger in the sack. With a larger gene pool than preceeding species we know that's not the case.

I know it sucks, but what adults will tell you when you're a child are from their current experiences. A list of all the reasons I've been rejected, that I remember.

  • I already have a boy-friend. (No, you just broke up this morning.)
  • Wanna do something sometime? "I'm busy that night." (WTF?)
  • I'm not interested in dating right now. (Funny how you started dating the next guy who asked you.)
  • I've got my eye on somebody else. (You realise that guy is an asshole and will dump you once he scores on you?)
  • I'm a lesbian. (Is your girl-friend bisexual?)
  • I only date guys taller than me. (I am taller than you, I'm like four inches taller than you!)
  • I don't date guys who wear glasses. (These aren't glasses they're spectacles!)
  • Sorry, you're too white. (I could be albino, and it's not my fault I can't tan, I'm partially Irish!)
  • I don't date guys with tiny feet. (I wear size 11.5s...)
  • There's no way you're 17, you look like you're 12. (Yeah, I guess I happen to be a Junior because I have a Class D license.)
  • I only date guys with cars. (I have a Plymouth Horizon, that's a car, sort of.)
  • I don't date losers. (The last game of chess I played I won.)
  • You're nice, but no. (Reasoning to no?)
  • I just wanna stay friends. (I don't, I wanna be bed-friends.)
  • I'll have to think about it. (Think about it?! You'll never tell me!)
  • I don't date guys who live with their parents. (Bitch, I'm 16, and you're 15, wtf is wrong with you?)
  • I won't date my ex-boy-friend's friends. (Bullshit, you dated Dustin.)
  • Your teeth are crooked. (Your nose is crooked but I ain't complaining.)
  • You're a wierdo. (What can I say, I'm a distiniguished man.)
  • I don't date virgins. (Well, I guess you'd rather get ghonnorhea from that guy then. <- true story)
  • You're too immature. (Yeah well, your next boy-friend is going to be more immature than I am.)
  • As if I'd have sex with you... (I didn't ask for sex, I asked for a date!)
  • I don't date guys with long hair. (With hair like this, who needs pants?)
  • I only date hot guys. (I only date chicks who put out.)
  • I don't like nerds. (Whatever, I'm gonna kill Tartarus on Legendary, then play Tetris!)
  • "You're 20?! Can you buy me cigarettes?" How old are you? "Fourteen." (Walk away, just keep walking.)


My all-time undefeated five time champion of gayity favourite...

  • OH MY GOD, YOU'RE STRAIGHT?!!! (Where did that come from?)

Yeah man, women have a million and one reasons to say no, and only one to say yes. Guys have a million reasons to say yes/no. Go figure.

So long as I have parkour I'm okay.

I feel like a girl should throw in an opinion here.... personality.  Period.  How you treat people, especially her.... how you carry yourself... confidence... humility... the ability to protect her whether she needs  it or not.  If you're interested in a girl who only sees what a guy looks like on the outside then she's not worth pursuing...  yet... not until she gets her head on straight.  The inside is what really matters to a girl worth getting.

And it's a good sign if they keep laughing at just about everything you say. You'll think they have problems, but I've noticed it means they like you.

Exactly, and you need to take note of the implications of their preferences.

MAYBE. Or in that case I know girls who like everyone :P. Many popular girls just have easy senses of humor and laugh at anything, so maybe that's why they're popular.

It's all about how you look, silly but true, and this is what many girls are attracted to, because these girls are shallow.

Honestly for me, looks make a lot of a person's attractiveness. It's not the only thing that matters, but I'd still prefer to date a nice person who is at least nice to look at. Looks are like the door-openers, but if a girl's personality sucks and she's either shallow or ignorant, you're free to just forget about her.

Maybe that's why I don't have a girlfriend, I'm too picky lol.

Possibly, but I can't just expect her to pop out of nowhere. I'd rather not wait until I'm in my mid-20s to find my one and only girlfriend. I want to at least know what it's like to just have a relationship with someone I don't have the urge to marry, you know?

My favorite thing about this thread is that it's topic is what women find attractive in men and everyone seems to have ignored the one post by a woman.

I feel like a girl should throw in an opinion here.... personality.  Period.  How you treat people, especially her.... how you carry yourself... confidence... humility... the ability to protect her whether she needs  it or not.  If you're interested in a girl who only sees what a guy looks like on the outside then she's not worth pursuing...  yet... not until she gets her head on straight.  The inside is what really matters to a girl worth getting.

I did five things with that post, I read it, ignored it, repressed it, discarded it, forgot about it. That's A woman finds attractive in men, not what women find in men. Singularity versus plurality...

Not to say her opinion is less valid, it's just that what she likes, and she's married, in what I assume to be a closed relationship, unlike me who has an open relationship. "I don't wanna know your name, all I wanna do is bang."

So long as I have parkour I'm okay.
