Are women equally attracted to men?

Question

Women are themselves so much beautiful and far better looking than men... So, do women really find men attractive and are fascinated and attracted to them?

Honestly, male bodies are meh. They can be attractive. They can be veryyy attractive, but all in all, they are not as aesthetically pleasing as women's bodies. Guys look good shirtless, but all the art seems to fall away with his pants, because...idk what it is, but the lines of men's bodies just don't flow the way women's do. It seems like things were just added on, rather than being part of them sorta. Don't get me wrong, I'm totally straight and get totally boycrazy and all, but just from a physical standpoint...it ain't no magic garden is all lol.

We like guys for how tight they can hold us, how tall they are compared to us, how warm they are, how assertively they walk, and basically how well they can give us a physical feeling of security. Physically speaking, the two most important things to girls are eyes and teeth. We like big pretty eyes, because it makes a guy seem pensive with a sensitive side, even if he isn't...because let's face it, guys are usually upfront and less mushy, which is good. We like pretty eyes though, because it gives us a feeling of connection, like you understand us, which releases endorphins and makes us feel more attracted to you. We like straight clean teeth, because it makes kissing seem appetizing.

Other than that, neither I nor my gfs have much preference when it comes to guys' physical appearance. We have preferences of course, but they are negligible compared to his intellect, conversation skills and if he has a mean streak. It's like caring about how many cup holders we have in the car. It's nice to have a lot, but it's more important to consider the mileage, engine size, and safety ratings.

What an interesting question! I can only speak for myself, but yea, I have always found men to be attractive and fascinating. I love the physical differences, and I don't mean just the genitals either, though I find that part of a man's body to be absolutely fascinating to explore. I am lucky enough to have a husband that has always let me explore and enjoy his body to my heart's content. I know it's funny, but one of the most interesting points for me is body hair. He has a full beard, in fact I have never seen him without it, except in pictures before we met. The difference in texture of the hair on his head, his chest, his face, his legs, arms, pits.. all of it is just amazing to me. None of it is alike! I love the furriness of him, the harder body and muscles, the angles all so in contrast to my own body with it's curves, lack of hair and entirely different plumbing. And on top of that, the male brain is so different too. I love hearing his take on things, his perspective which is sometimes SO different from mine. We discuss a lot of different issues and I'm always amazed by the way he can see things from such a different place than I do.  I think it will be interesting to see what other women have to say.

I'm not going to lie...I'm going to have to say no. Now, I am a straight female, meaning the idea of being with another chick doesn't fly with me. And I ogle attractive guys like crazy and dream about them and stuff.

However, notice how most men will still chase after a woman even if she isn't all that attractive. I mean look at the women with busted faces but huge breasts...oh yeah, they get stares alright. Plus, let's face it: because women take care of their looks, it's easier to find an attractive girl rather than an attractive guy. Even without the makeup, we really aren't called the "fairer sex" for no reason. Women's bodies, too, are an emblem of beauty for both men and women.

Men on the other hand...I'm crazy about attractive guys, but still...compared to how guys go crazy over us, I doubt it's reciprocated to the same extent. Let's face it- other than abs and stuff, guy's genitals aren't really that appealing. Plus, females are more objectified/sexualized than men.

Anyways, don't mean to make anyone feel bad, because, again, I'm crazy about guys. I'm just answering the question xD

It's not true to say "women are themselves so much beautiful and far better looking than men".

You're saying this because (I'm assuming) you're a straight guy. Naturally, to you, women look far more interesting and attractive. The same is true for me too. I find women tantalising (mostly) and could easy jump into bed with almost nine out of ten of them...

But what about women? Rather late, I realized that women are attracted to men in the same intense way that we are attracted to them. They find us interesting and handsome (okay, may not be as much as we do them, because men are more visual and it's easier to seduce a man).

Women fantasize about men too. It's just that men have to work harder to 'catch' a woman, specially when she's younger, has more to lose/gain (higher stakes), and plays hard to get. Wait awhile till you're in your 30s and 40s, and it will surprise you no end that women can start chasing even modest looking guys (like me) as it never happened earlier in your younger days!

It depends on the female.  A Cosmopolitan magazine was talking about girls whose sex drives are higher than guys or their boyfriends.  I remember junior high and high school.  On another site a guy was talking about how girls commented on YouTube or some other site wanting to rape the guys in the band One Direction.

If he's sexy yeah.but I don't feel that way about guys that aren't good looking I have to have a deep connection with the guy like a boyfriend, or he has to be sexy

Thumbtack · Answer

It doesn't really seem like it. I could be wrong, but from all I've seen, and heard men can usually be absolutely, completely fascinated with attractive women. But women in general only feel that way towards their boyfriend/husband.

How many times have you heard a women ask about strip clubs because they were completely baffled by the appeal? Playboy magazine is still really popular with men, but when it comes to playgirl, the women who were into it were more interested in the articles.

I could go on, but I think what I'm getting at is pretty clear. When you compare it all, there is nowhere near the same level of interest.

To me most men are OK looking. I don't go into admiring their broad shoulders etc. They just are who they are. Then once in a blue moon a really gorgeous guy comes along and I turn into an mute imbecile. I usually only get attracted to guys once I get to know them and they have made a significant amount of eye contact and displayed their interest in me. On the other hand I see many girls and think "wow they're gorgeous". I'm 100% straight I just recognize beauty and it's more predominant in women. Also in many countries guys just don't put the effort into their bodies so what ever good looks they had get eaten up by beer bellies and gills.

I'm straight and have noticed how beautiful women are.I do definitely find men attractive and fascinating however...NOT a lot of them.Why?Because men are more prone to letting themselves go with pot bellies and looking physically sloppy because in our society,what's seemingly more important is their bank account.And yet women are always meant to look on point always.

So my standards for attractiveness is VERY high,and I don't see a lot of guys who take care of themselves properly which I think is disgusting.Its almost like "straight" guys don't want to appear to be "gay" if they take a bath and god forbid put some cologne on and maybe even hit the gym a few times a week and stop knocking back so many beers. -_-

But it doesn't even matter because the same sloppy guys seem to always find a woman as long as they have fat pockets.Meanwhile,if a woman let's herself go much in the same way,she might as well get ready to live in a house full of cats...for the rest of her natural life.

Yes. I think the guy I'm in love with is beautiful. Certainly not less attractive because he's a guy...I think he's truly beautiful.

I get stuck just staring at him and can do it for hours. I love photographing him. He's my favorite subject. Looking at him inspires me... He is my muse.

Not handsome-- Beautiful.

Hon, you find women better looking because you're heterosexual...

Guys, especially those who take care of their health and looks and are naturally good looking, can oh, be so God-like.

I do think taken care, well built, good genes male bodies are as majestic and wonderful as equal female bodies.

But I think most girls stay with guys for the emational side, and not for really loving and feeling attracted to their bodies... women are a lot less visual.

confugirl · Answer

Yeah, I think so. Not in the same way though. Say what you will, but women are looking for an emotional connection more often than men, in my experience.

I love men, I occasionally find myself obsessing over a guy every now and then lol.. The male anatomy is just as lust worthy as the female anatomy. ;)

Sligthly less but women are attracted to a guys charisma plus I think women are more defined by their beauty then men are but there are few men who are considered handsome to the extent that they will possese the confidence to attract any girl and will most likley get noticed easier than your average joe.

Of course. Men are beautiful creatures, especially when they have some ccharacter wrinkles or scars. Yum!

Bethany94 · Answer

Yes. I am really attracted to guys. They're handsome and sexy and all the things you think about girls.

I don't think so. To a lot of men women are so beautiful that the female form surpasses all works of art. Most women seem to like a man's form, but not so much that it surpasses all works of art.
