Men, what do you think of masculine women in dating?

[curiousnorway]

On GAG I asked what women thought about feminine men in dating. So now it's time to ask the men. #Dating #Masculine #Feminine

1. What do you think of masculine women?
2. Do you've different preferences when it comes to looks and personality?
3. Why do you like or dislike masculine women?

With masculine personality I mean:
Not very talkative - especially not about emotions, not sensitive, fashion, art and aesthetics aren't the most important thing in the world, loves cars, bikes, sports etc., strong, talks roughly, loves gaming.

With masculine looks I mean:
Rough broad facial features, strong jaws, broad shoulders, muscular, short hair, lumberjack clothing, tattoos, piercings.

Example on masculine looking female celebrities:
Brienna (GoT), Casey Legler, Elliot Sailors, Rain Dove and Michelle Obama (if she had short hair).

Examples on feminine looking celebrities:
Angeline Jolie, Keira Knightley, Nathalie Portman, Adriana Lima and Scarlett Johansson.

Your examples of masculine women here are far too masculine, they straight up just look like men.

I do prefer masculine women in both looks and behavior, such as Line Brems for example.
But I'm not attracted to women who actually look like men (including having broad, lanky bodies) and act butch (wear neckties, male fashion etc).

[curiousnorway]

I don't find Line Brems masculine looking. She looks just like an ordinary girl with some model like features.

Interesting, the majority of guys that I know think Line Brems looks too much like a guy.
I've even seen men claim that Angelina Jolie and Emily Ratajkowski look like men to them, going as far as to claim that "you must be gay" if you find them attractive.
Men definitely seem like the gender who is more put off by what they perceive as traits of their own gender in their preferred gender.

I'm not sure if there is any biological merit to that, or whether it is simply the byproduct of men being more insecure about their own sexual orientations in general.
Perhaps the average man is so scared of being perceived as gay that they subconsciously put themselves off even mildly masculine looking women.

[curiousnorway]

I've no idea and what's considered feminine and masculine isn't only biologically, but also culturally. I don't find Line Brems, Angeline Jolie or Emily Ratajkowski masculine looking, and most of the other people in my country doesn't either.

I would say masculine looking women are Casey Ledger, Elliot Sailors and Rain Dove. Not only do they wear some masculine clothing, but also have masculine features. I wouldn't say Casey and Elliot looks completely like men. To me they looks like very masculine women. If you saw them with long hair instead of short, you could see some of the more female like features.

These pictures look like guys. 100% turn off! I like a woman who is soft and warm, not cold and jagged.

D. It would be easy to date a traditionally hot girl who just wants to bang all the time

[curiousnorway]

You've a good point. :) In that way it would be beneficial. I wouldn't like her to behave like a man in any other ways though.

[normalice]

You wouldn't have to know about it. She would presumably be just fine with doing such things on her own.

[curiousnorway]

I likes when women are open about their feelings, talkative and detailed. :) Men tends to be shy, not liking to talk about their emotions, doesn't like to be comforted or comfort others.

[AlexanderBrunnrgaard]

These are women? That's an unfortunate amount of testosterone in those female sexes.

[curiousnorway]

Yes, they're biologically women. They're not transgender although some of them have been mistaken as it.

[answerALLquestions]

If I wanted a masculine looking girl I'd just be gay

[Dchrls78104]

Not my cup of tea. Too many variables and complications for my taste. I think that dating should be much simpler than that.

[PrinceOfAljazeera]

I don't find them attractive, masculine women are just women that want to be like men.
i'm only attracted to feminine women

[bamesjond0069]

Well because I'm not gay. Personally I'm only interested in ultra feminine women.

[Mamamialetmego]

I like soft, girly women. These don't even look like women tbh.

[leosp5000]

I wouldn't mind dating a masculine woman as long as she doesn't try to make me submissive.

[seth900]

I don't like them. Why should i need a guy female?
