Why is there such a high physical standard for women, but not men? (Page 4)

Question

Women must have big boobs, big butt, no stomach, be thick but with no fat in the undesirable regions, be pretty, have long hair, be average height. Men can look however they want and still shame women for not having what they want. This is because I saw a post online saying "How do you flat ass girls feel when you walk past a group of guys knowing you about to ruin their day?"

Schrodingerscat · Answer

Lmao 😂
The opinions are as expected.

Guy can increase his value by earning money or by getting beefed up.

If a girl is average or below average, she's screwed because she can't do anything to improve her value.

Anonymous · Answer

You know your wrong? The spectrum goes both ways. I have literally been laughed at by women for not being tall. Handsome, have money, polite to the point were I want to shoot myself. And all I want in a girl is for them to enjoy being around me, and for them to be kind hearted. Am I in the wrong?

Troll post No one is retarded enough to think that only women have standards

Anonymous · Answer

i always was more into energy than what a girl looks like

of course if you are in shape and do some sports you want your girl to be in shape but thats about it
the more a guy interact with a girl the more you find her attractive and you feel like you want to compliment her
i never judged based on physical attributes
i dont care about boob size been with girls with only A cup size and it didn't bother me at all its more about chemistry

there is basics like:

i dont a girl who smokes
i like to drink socially
etc...

I think they do have a high standard. One imperfection and your pretty much done for. An example is myself. Im short, about 5'5, and girls deny me for being short. Not only do i have good looks, according to many people, i also workout and have a 6 pack and number one in the whole highschool school in grades. I also play piano and soccer. That one major flaw is something girls can't look past at.

djpaynesr · Answer

Women don't dress or wear makeup for men. Give me a break, generally if she's breathing we're into her.
Give me a break. Most women I've dated wouldn't be caught DEAD just going to the grocery store in a ball cap, sweat pants without any makeup.
Oh, and if you tell her she looks beautiful without her hair done or makeup on they call you a liar😫

Lance1965 · Answer

A lot of women have high physical standards for men too. Some women raise the bar so high you would have to be superman to ever stand a chance with them and that is just the physical. Add to that expectations over money etc and most men don't have a hope.

hazfire · Answer

Men's bodies are definitly judged, and some are preferred over other. But mean are judged on a lot more than just bodies. Most women want a man with a noble social status, some want a man with a high income, etc etc. Both parties have high standards of one another.

Shadowelite · Answer

Both have physical standers for the other iys just because men advertise their way more the it seems like there aren't any for men but i ask you this you see two guys at a bar one looking fit tall and the other short fat which are you more likly to go talk to and same for a guy two girls same rules

Captain_Morgan921 · Answer

This is intensely false. We're expected to be tall, in shape, have money, stable life, nice vehicle, some think we have to have a beard, since expect us to be 100% hairless the list goes on... there honestly probably more things expected of men than women if were being honest here

jss123 · Answer

I don't care about what the woman looks like as long as they are healthy. I care about who they are. If you are going to spends years with someone appearance is very secondary to someone you can talk to and relate to. Besides that appearance changes with age, body shapes also change due to eg. Weight changes. Personality and intelligence not really.

duckster · Answer

Womens beauty standards come from other women. You guys are the harshed on each other the beauty industry isn't ran by men its ran by women marketing on your insecurities and if you are mad that men like pretty girls, I'm sorry thats nature you like a guy to not look like a whale correct? If so then you can't sling that bullshit double standard.

Kilamanjargo · Answer

That is a lie. Woman regardless of their appearance, personality, and status will always have the ability to attract a mate. A man is suppose to be a certain height, skin tone, peak physical condition and a athletic in order to attract females. Short men get shafted, fat guys are laughed at, and nerds are frowned upon.

alphamale07 · Answer

Well actually you have slightly misjudged... All the standards that you mentioned are not always desired by all men... In actual just one or two features are taken interest by men. Cuz not all have same standards. Like i just want to have a good looking wife that's all. And it is reasonable cuz just like us, women do have some kind of standard for us guys too... Some want funny ones, some want big guys, some want gentle and caring, some want good looking, or rich, or smart etc

that_messy_guy · Answer

There is a standard for everyone but you have to decide that you will let some fools standing on a street corner decide how you feel or just be happy with yourself, life is about breaking standards be the one who does that, man or woman don't let this drag you down

Goodwifie · Answer

Don't know.  All I know is that I was expected to look good even after having children yet men it's OK for men to have a dad bod. Not my husbands standard by the way I'm staying fit by choice.

LordCuddles · Answer

Yeah, that a pretty dickish thing for someone to say, but I've had plenty of women reject me because I'm not tall enough, and because is wasn't ripped, or because I don't have abs, there is definitely a physical standard for men. If I can't bench press two of me then suddenly I'm not good enough. I will say it's definitely less noticeable but it's there

Gedaria · Answer

Why do you think guys don't like feminists. It shows them up this macho idea that women have to be like you described. Sadly there are women who go with the flow, look at some of the big galas when they walk down the red carpet wearing dresses that make them eye candy for the guys. Pity more women wear the black suit just like the men. Things are changing but very slowly...

oscar17UK · Answer

This is slight stereotyical view point. However i can agree that i know men who expect everything of girls but do nothing on themselves. I have appearance issues of which i am self conscious about. For example my nose (too disproportionate), height (5 10) and my abs (non existent). Personally i think this view is naive but i can see where it is founded from.

samhayne · Answer

It all has to do with how we've evolved as a species. Men want a woman who is young, healthy and able to bear strong, healthy children. Physical attractiveness and health are indicators of fertility to men.

There are different standards that society imposes on men.

Philyouup · Answer

They Must have big boobs, butts, bla bla bla.. Only if you let a man demand that... There are plenty of men that don't do that.. Don't date, or chase, any men who exemplify that sort of misogynistic behavior. There will always be assholes , they don't go away.. ignore them.. and be proud and unashamed of yourself , don't compare yourself to the "Perfect girl" they don't exist..

Rhys_r15 · Answer

Men do have high physical standards. What do you mean we Don't? We have to be muscular but not to muscular. Have to have a good jaw line with nice cheek bones, Great finances, taller than 5'7ft, a bad boy but a nice guy at the same time and a dick bigger than 5 inches. We all have standards to live up too. Not just women.

jaafar76 · Answer

You're a special kind of stupid missy. Try these steps next time to make sure you don't look stupid.
1- don't use personal thoughts to achieve credibility.
2- make a poll of at least 100 person. Guys in this situation.
3- google. com Use it for purposes other than gay porn.
4- read your question loud.

Anon-ymous1 · Answer

Uh, no one with an IQ above room temperature actually wants a girl who is "thick." You know why? Because anyone who isn't a moron knows that "thick" is just a nicer way of saying "fat." And only desperates or betas want a girl who's fat. Anyway, yeah looks are really important to guys and we want hot girls, but looks are also important to girls and in addition they want their guy to be wealthy and possibly famous. So, we're both picky in mildly different ways.

Frenzyredwolf · Answer

This is a sexist question, this is more directed towards the shallow males...

OldS0ul · Answer

I think it's because women accept it. I think if the man is well paid, women will over look his body. Also women are judged by both men and women. Women will look at a picture of another woman and point out her flaws. Most men don't care.

debi2622 · Answer

That was cold. lol Real men want and prefer real women. Us women complete with an unrealistic ideology of what we are told men want their woman to look like. Do you fall for it or not? Real love is how you feel, not what you see.

lumberjack95 · Answer

The stigma goes both ways, it's not one sided, you have to ignore the vain world and focus on the better side, men get ridiculed for their bodies and wallets, but guys tend to be better at hiding or not caring about those insecurities.

Anonymous · Answer

Where is it written stating that women MUST have all of those things to be considered attractive and desirable?  There are standards for men, but I'm sure they care way less.

ladiesknight · Answer

You need to go out more, my dear. Do not be ignorant to the fact that there are high standards for men too.

Gerpar · Answer

What are you talking about? Men have the same problem. According to society, all men have to be muscular, have good hair, have a good face, etc.

MelaninDoll · Answer

y'all getting mad at men for wanting someone attractive cause y'all ugly asses can't reach the standards XD But for real though, stop stereotyping men, most of them actually don't give a fuck XD

Salmon4056 · Answer

I guess that's society. But I don't have big boobs nor the big large butt and I never been shamed but admired. I guess everyone is different

MIKIBURGOS · Answer

There are different tastes of girls as there are for guys, the difference is guys make fun of other guys without their same taste. Actually not *their* taste but society's (the thing you said about big boobs and that); so everyone has a different taste but they hide it because they're idiots

Paul09 · Answer

Then those idiot guys end up hooking up with wo men, some how, oh because a lot of women want bad boys. Anyways, double standard. Its like that both for women and men. I personally want a happy, healthy, fit woman. I dont like huge breasts, and huge asses. Everyone one has a different opinion. Just idiots that insult others to make themselves feel better.

michol1 · Answer

Such bitterness you must live in a box and never get to know the opposite sex if that's what you believe personality is what matters kindness and understanding. The best girlfriend I had was like 80 pounds heavier than me and I'm a big guy. Guys do like looking and thin chicks in porn though but that doesn't count

AdamC123 · Answer

This is blatently not true. Both genders must put some effort in to get anywhere. If a fat man is funny or has a good personality then they will find a girl. Same goes for a fat girl. If an attractive male/female is as interesting as wet paint then they will likely put people off them.

learned1 · Answer

Generally Mans position in nature is a provider and the woman is the caregiver when a man looks to reproduce looks are important because he wants his children to have good genetics and looks are generally a relative extension of good health. It's just nature.

outsidecurve · Answer

This is all on women. Guys don't care as much about looks like women do. Women are more vain and compare themselves to other women. Women think if they are no skinny, they're fat. Women just need to stop caring.

ivylo · Answer

It is proven by science guys tend to fall more for looks and girls for feelings. It’s biological. So it’s only obvious they would focus more on women looking some way than men.

slickest_rik · Answer

Because naturally you dont have to do anything but attract. Thats your role when it comes finding a mate. Men have to be attracted to you in order for us to approach you. We have to disarm you first, then we have to charm you etc. We have to put in work JUST to get your attention... then even more work once we got ya. Thats why.

ThreeSheetsToTheWind · Answer

Men are less likely to judge a woman by things like status, financial situation, career choice etc than the other way around (or at least don't value those things as highly as women do). If a man has all that then his looks won't matter too much. Women haven't traditionally been expected to make good financial providers, so their looks take higher priority.

Edanurus · Answer

You don't see how much men are shamed so you don't notice it. And your angry at the comment so you have the 'ugh men' frame of mind going on.

Men don't pay attention to things like that because if they did and act all shy they be those sad incels that keep popping up.

Mr_Smile · Answer

People have preferences. Some people like those kind of people, other people like other kinds of people. Some men are pigs. Some women are pigs. It goes both ways. Men jst get a lot more flak because people just seem to hate men these days.

genericname85 · Answer

There are no such standards. Even the fattest girl with a flat chest and no ass still attracts enough men... As a woman it's basically enough to not be fat. The male beauty standard is way more outrageous.

BigRob420 · Answer

Men are aroused visually while women are aroused mentally. Men are judged by their mental abilities in general. Ability to produce, provide, and educate offspring. Women are judged by their physical ability to attract a man.

Wassail · Answer

A lot of the high standards woman hold themselves to are self inflicted. Most guys just want a normal average girl who doesn't look anything like the idea girls think are ideal.

CoffeeWC · Answer

Both pretty girls and handsome guys have a better chance of finding a partner. If a person doesn't take care of their appearance, whether or not it's a girl or guy, they will be less attractive. Guy also have high standards, but not as many men meet those standards.

oftheHowl · Answer

Your question is invalid simply because it's in response to an idiotic sexist question. Men and women are held to equally unrealistic standards and shame each other just as much

TripleAce · Answer

hey we get the same amount of tokens you know  You girls just split your tokens between financial wealth and good looks... see we put it all on good looks... cause what else lol...

AwkwardEscapee · Answer

Wow that was such a disrespectful post... but yeah I've been thinking about this too. Girls rush to cover their acne with makeup but somehow we can see past a guy's acne and not even really care about it

squatch · Answer

Have a waist.

Is that really a barrier that is so high that it's unattainable? Generally speaking, when it comes to men, that's really what we want, a woman with a waist that tapers from the bust and the hips.

hooper12 · Answer

I think it’s because men dominate society. Their worth is based on material things like money, women, etc. Society views a woman through her body, her ability to be a “wife, mother” etc. different standards for us women.

SaintRaghu · Answer

Same goes for men! You should study both the parties before jumping up to a completely one sided conclusion cuz it’s worse for men.

Anonymous · Answer

You're most likely out of touch with today's standards for women, so here's a refresher

You_Cant_See_Me · Answer

Are you serious. So many men don’t even care about the size of boobs while if you’re a man and you’re under a certain height, you don’t even get a second look. Women are more superficial

Goddess_Germanika · Answer

women have very high standards. I've had 4.5" cocks that made me cum over and over. I know some obese men have made me cu but menwith minds excite me the most. Men like big cocks. Men love to see me throat a 9-10" cock qand they do make me cum but so do 4.5" and 6" and all the other cocks but if they are attached to Buff Brains, I will spread my legs.

bamamadeus · Answer

I think it's even between the genders. there are many statistics showing woman want a man to be at least 6 feet tall for security and even trust. most of us are shallow. I would ask yourself would you date someone who doesn't have a nose? both genders more times than not wouldn't be attracted to that were all shallow

egonumb · Answer

Simple cuz that's how the media is portraying girls wait a min... I sound like a 50 year old... here's the thing not just women even guys have them only different kinda standards... it's opposite sex expectations... Nothing else.. even if someone has flatass like lea if she is cute... she is cute dot... doesn't have to give a shit about everything be good in something and have it as your perk 😍😍😍😍
