Question

- HIGH SELF-ESTEEM/PRIDE (probably the biggest thing women want in men; ego)

- TALL (bare minimum six feet/183 cm; nothing less than that is acceptable)

- SOCIAL STATUS (this can be any number of things that basically means the man is "high value:" wealthy, important job, successful, popular around town, a celebrity, etc)

There are more, but here are the big three. I made this chart a while ago, but it still applies for this question here.

Ego, Height, and Social Status are the big three.

As they age - stability and security, maturity, emotional fulfillment

At all times - confidence and strength, intellectual and physical stimulation, humor, kindheartedness, and height

I think basically most women want a man who's sensitive and understanding with his loved ones and strong, confident, and unbreakable with everyone and everything else (and yes, that includes financial stability AND a strong and/or attractive physique)
A balance of "alpha" and "beta" energies to make the perfect mix or something like that.

That's the notion I got from my exes, my female friends, and my experiences with people.
And I think that's the ideal man not just for women but also in general with everything else, and I'm on my way there! I've got lots of stuff figured out already but a true master is an eternal student haha

Its called the L. M. S index

L. stands for looks it scales 1 to 10.

M. Stands for money and it scales thusly based upon annual income. 0-50k = 1 : 50-100k =2 : 100k - 500k = 8 : 500k - 1M = 9 : 1-m = 10

S. Stands for status. This scales 1-10 based upon an average of (L M÷4) but has 2 modifiers. Having a super nice car = 1 or 2 points having a super nice house is 1 to 3 points

To give an example of S let's say your an 8 in looks but a 2 in money thats 8 2÷4 = 2.5. your car is a peice of junk so you get o points, however you have a nice house so you get 3 for a total of 5.5 points.

For most women to consider a man database you must score 24 or higher between all 3 categories

Someone that could make her life not boring and feel colorful in her life.
With him everything sounds great and not boring. Women love that type of man.

Unfortunately most of that man are bad boys and playboy hence in the end they regret.

It's better find a man that could protect or provide for you in the future and you also feel chemistry like feel convenient with him together though he might not as good as the playboy or bad boy.

mynewsworld · Answer

Difficult to answer, because I guess women are different and have different expectations.

But I would say that they are looking above all for a caring man, who respects them, who shows them love, but who also knows how to protect them and make decisions. It would be a balance between being gentle and showing that he is the man of the house despite everything.

Rich, famous, respected by people and in a powerful position..  That's what women want!..  "A women's beauty is equivalent of a man's dominance"

exitseven · Answer

Women like somebody who has experience with a lot of things and displays confidence. He does not need to be exceptionally good looking but needs to respect his body and had good personal habits.
He does not have to be wealthy but needs to have a life plan.

Browneye57 · Answer

Everything gets selected 'great' silly.
Guys need three things to get the ladies:
1. Looks
2. Money
3. Confidence. Irrational confidence.
A guy can get by with any two of these, but having all three is key.
Women are drawn to power and control, riches, and a fun guy that will entertain her.
A woman wants to see that her prospect is actually going somewhere and being someone. She wants him to be successful.

TheSpaceGnome · Answer

I was actually curious what women would say they wanted, but it appears to be a question for guys only.

With that in mind, I would guess it varies just as much as it does for guys looking for a girlfriend.

Caliguy88 · Answer

Body and confidence! That’s what I think. My shape is not as good as it was right now and I can tell with the girls. I used to pull down 10s and now I’m pulling in 6s. It’s fine. On my way back. But it’s crazy how much a few pounds has hanged the quality I take home. And I’m not even that picky... I think girls are more picky in the body attraction that guys are in general.

Every woman I have dated has sought different things. Apparently what they all were looking for wasn't me because the five women I have proposed to all turned me down.

Juxtapose · Answer

Fun (laughter, sex, intrigue, etc) & solid companionship.

Blindguyplaying · Answer

Hell if I know. And I doubt they know either. The fact they went out with me goes to show that it was a miracle on my end and I'm a five (on a good day) so I would go out on a limb and say be a decent person.

JackSmy · Answer

How the HELL does a GUY know, what you ladies want? If some guy figured that out, wouldn't he be selling that book, and making MILLIONS of DOLLARS?

Anonymous · Answer

Women like men who are 6'3+ and muscular (these are the most important two), rich, stoic while also social.

KaiserDeEmperana · Answer

I don’t really know because they claim “size doesn’t matter” “looks don’t matter” “I just want a kind man that will protect me” and then like you actually protect them/help them out on regular basis and they don’t even act like your friends

Coolkat12345 · Answer

I think woman want first of all a guy who is strong 💪 and after that intelligent. Well if he is strong he is intelligent because how can you be weak and intelligent at the same time? Answer is, it’s not possible.

Wiredone · Answer

Wouldn't it be better if you asked women this question instead of guys. Most guys have trouble figuring out women

2021biguy · Answer

Men don't know, it's too hard to figure out. You should ask the women. But I would say, lots of money and a big penis.
