They value how they look over being practical and capable
They won't get their hands dirty with work
Instead of being actually tough and self-reliant, it's the opposite. They have to be careful so they don't break them, which means being limited, and not doing certain things, or asking others for help
They like drama
So, men, does it attract you or repel you?
👍 I love them
👎 I hate them

Do you like or dislike 'stiletto nails', and what do you think girls who wear them convey about themselves?
My opinion? I think they look monstrous; utterly grotesque. They scream hooker or gold digger. A woman who has those is beyond shallow. She's demonstrating her compete uselessness, as if looks are all she has to offer. Such a woman would also be all about fake boobs, plastic surgery, and dramatic makeup.
I would NEVER consider such a woman as a partner. I would run. I couldn't even be friends with such an empty headed creature.
I love well groomed women and attractively manicured nails. But I don't even like acrylic nails. I also don't care for women who are into consumerism and fashion culture. A woman with good taste can look outstanding without spending thousands of $ on haute couture.
I guess that was a harsh way of saying that I agree with your assessment of "what it really does". 😂
lololol. That was cathartic! (for both of us I think.) Yes, I absolutely hate them too. I was restrained and tame in what I said but I agree with yo completely. And that one blue fucker who voted 'love them' was so personally insulting to me, attacking me, I also got great satisfaction out of blocking and deleting him. Asshole. We are all entitled to our opinions on the topic brought up. "Men are logical, not emotional" my ass. If that was true, they wouldn't do character assassinations which have little to do with the topic. Not everything has to be accepted in society. On some things, people are more than within their rights to say how idiotic something is. I wouldn't be friends with one of these girls either.
ROFL I love this reply, Amanda. And I love a woman who doesn't take shit from assholes. Of course, those stiletto nails could be handy for clawing their eyes out. Hahahahaha
If it's wrong to be judgmental about fashion choices, how 'bout these? 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 www.google.com/search
I've always found nails so long that they'd interfere with daily life unappealing (if I look at your hands and my first thought is "how can you make a fist without coating your hands in blood?", that's not what I'd call "attractive"). Looking at THOSE, my first thought is "Hey, 21st-century footbinding!".
Well, no. That's my SECOND thought. My first thought is "How embarrassing is it going to be having 'Cause of death: nose picking' on your death certificate?".
The one thing those super long nails indicate is that a broad is lazy. Usually, I see those nails on some real whales... Why? Because you can't do shit with nails like that. The second an ounce of effort is put forth, those nails are coming off or breaking. Besides they just look stupid. It's more fake shit women do to impress each other. "Oh girl, look at my nice long hair. It grew a foot in a week!" "These are my natural eyelashes, they've always reached the top of my forehead and chin." ugh.
Lol. I am natural and dont have makeup and while sometimes i appreciate the aesthetic worth. Most of the time i see girls overdoing it and i wonder how they think it looks good. But its ok i accept we all are different.
@Jekdbrfiru Natural is good. I don't mind a little fixing up, but to have a vast percentage of your outer appearance be fake is just bizarre. I always tried to live by the rule that I need to look good naked. At least as good as I possibly can. For a lot of these women, you remove the finger nails, hair, and the eye lashes, what do you have? Is it decent or gastly? And yes, I mean gastly. I am a civil libertarian so I don't really care what people do to themselves for the most part, but geez. Are people as fake as they look on the inside?
I have no idea why girls do it but I hate it… I don’t like long nails in general, I like it medium and well kept. I also like to be able to use my hands and fingers freely so those nails would just be in the way. There’s also the fact that I’m not allowed to have those kinda nails as a nursing student so that’s that lol
I don't like them they look cheap. But the type of woman that does this likes to think of herself as High maintenance. But she just a high class bisch.
I love nails on a woman even if false, but I don't like the stiletto look at all. Just looks trashy and unattractive to me. I like medium to longer squarish shape.
The Chinese fingernail guard came from the time of the Qing dynasty. For having long fingernails was a sign of power and beauty and wearing fingernail guards protected the nails. Nail guards were usually made from metals or shells, sometimes also jade.
Looks utterly ridiculous, and makes me wonder how do they wipe themselves when going to the bathroom🤣🤣🤣 Seriously though, I'm not into fake, fake nails, fake boobs, fake hair, I may not be perfect, but I'm real...
All due respect to all women who have these nails, they’re a huge turnoff. What message are these women trying to send? I can’t speak for them, but the message that I receive (could be a misinterpretation) is that they’re extremely self centered.
It’s attention seeking. Anything this extreme is a sign of an attention seeker (goes for both men or women and not just the nails but it serves a good example).
i like them, just hate the namr, and i hate when peopl trry to make them super exaggerated and noticeable. The shape does that on its own. Adding all that other shit is unnecessary. And putting nails on babies at ALL is weird.
The black ones on a girl in a loose black tshirt, with messy hair and sarcasm sharp as a knife, yes. Its probably a bad idea but I would be tempted by that. Most colourful nails of any shape suggest an overly modern look I do not usually like.
@Jekdbrfiru somehow I doubt a woman who is that naggy would make it to the marriage stage. I tend to be a worthy opponent, because if I do not find an argument legitimate, I am immune to it's emotional content. And endlessly arguing the merit of the case drives some women crazy much faster than me. A convenient nag filter :-D
And those who do not hurt themselves tryimg to nag me to death typically find my presence oddly comforting. So either way, the situation resolves itself quickly
@Jekdbrfiru I dont mind arguing but I wouldn't actually expect someone with that set of claws to be bossy. More like introverted, emotional, attention seeking, weird, with a distinct dislike for standardized conduct. Like in the middle of August you say "hello, good morning, how are you?" And she might respond with "merry Christmas. I feel like murdering puppies. And you?"
@Jekdbrfiru not this particular sentence together. But merry Christmas Ihave heard from multiple people independently. And a thousand ways to not answer the "how are you" in a very elaborate and original manner, yes. I can't remember killing puppies, but I myself tend to say a lot of sarcastic things for pure shock value as a response to that. And the Addams family used to be popular, people sometimes tried to mimic the seemingly sincere but shocking statements used in the film. Several individuals in my area became known by a repetitive style in this fashion. Now granted, women are a minority among them, but it is something I imagine for a reason when I see those overly dramatic black claws...
@Jekdbrfiru some are just random individuals. Some are coming from the larp community. We perform rituals where we sacrifice captured elves on an altar and then play elfball with their heads (its of course a fake head, fake blood, faking their deaths, etc...). I knew many girls who broke wooden swords while hitting my head and something resembling a play brawl was common at birthday parties. Some of the people then continue the theater in real life, and those of us who enjoy absurdist humor can take it pretty far.
If a girl makes a move on me with those she will be rejected independent of the rest of her. That is a big no in my book. And obviously I wouldn't make a move on her.
Had there been an option C : I dislike them (which is *not* the same as option B), I would have voted accordingly. However, as you allowed for only two dichotomous options, I voted for B.
To me it says that she is probably goth, which is a lifestyle I have difficulty identifying with. Or the woman is Lady Deathstrike
I don’t dislike them should people choose to wear them, pretty eye catching and what they are designed for. They would get in the way too much for me personally. It’s choosing to disable yourself. I can only imagine trying to go up and down my bikes gear box, and functioning front breaks with those on. I’m sure I could pull it off, but requires too much extra thought.
They're ugly and look like you're poised to scratch some poor guy's eyes out. Very menacing. Also, they can damage your car upholstery. As a guy who already has a hole in a dash from a family member with these nails, I'd never let a woman with those nails anywhere near my ride.
I don’t like them at all. I think they’re awful. But it’s also a clear sign that the person doesn’t do much with their hands and could be high-maintenance.
So aggressive. Ugly. Not remotely feminine. I'd rather see a good natural nail than any false. I see them the same as a push-up bra: the second he gets your shirt off he knows you're a liar.
Some guys who are dumb told me i need to dress like the girls who would wear those nails. Lol. Yeah ok. Something tells me even if i wanted to, that those idiots wouldn't want to let alone be able to finance that for me. Yet there stand around making demands.
@Jekdbrfiru I much prefer a girl who is natural. None of my exes used makeup. I don't think it helps.
If you're "gifted" then I get the need for support. It's the padded, push-to-the-ears "maximising" bras I mean. My ex delighted me out first night together when she revealed she wore a minimiser and my estimate of her girls was way off! I actually bought her a good (based on the damn price) supportive but sexy bra that she said she loved. She wore it a lot so I guess I got that bit right.
STUPID STUPID AND MORE STupid. it looks gross, all the way. No excuse or reason to really wear them. not practical not anything. dumb girls who like to wear them
Can't stand them. With the kind of work I do, I won't hire someone that has those. Because she wouldn't be able to do the work my company would need from her.
hate them with a passion. I don't mind if your nails are painted, polished, etc. But I cannot stand stiletto nails. I have no clue as to what is trying to be conveyed by women who wear them, nor could I begin to hazard a guess.
Personally, they are a pain in the ass to wear and I think they look tacky. Do whatever you like, it doesn't bother me if other people have them. I could really care less, its not a "deal breaker" or anything serious.
Dont think most straight men give a damn and maybe think she's jigh maintenance not someone ready to be a stay at home mom and wife who cooks and cleans. Then again with so many effeminate "straight" men out there today who refuse to be men and be the 100% providers andp protectors and get married for life, they probably love those nails
I like the almond shape but shorter and the almond shape could be classy if shortened and tbh I don’t understand the generalizations u made based on nails... that’s weird asf like maybe they just like em?😂🤷♀️ I am not a fan of longgg nails like that they are not my style nor are they functional but other women obviously love them so what’s ur prob?
Apparently you think the world should be a place where anything and everything is accepted and supported, no matter how outrageous, attention-seeking, impractical, or dangerous.
I don't. And just about every other person on this thread agrees. There's two examples of mothers putting these on their babies yet you criticize me for not supporting them. Uh huh.
