Women only find a small % of men physically attractive?

[Anonymous]

I find about 80% of women who aren't fat attractive (within a certain age bracket) this is still about 50% of women in that age bracket where i come from, most guys i know are the same. I have heard women find only about 20% of men physically attractive, yet would still date those who they wouldn't consider to be good looking. True? false? very subjective?

[Kalinda]

I never finds tone attractuve.

I think there's a higher chance of women actually liking a guy she calls " attractive" as a person, though ther are less guys that fit that.

The men who are attracted to so many women, don't uusaly end up liking or wantimg them as a person in a realtionship.

So it evens out. As far as realtionships but yeah it's easier for women to get sex. If sex isn't want or all you want, then it isn't really that exciting that it's asier for you.

So yes women get sex easier than men, and bc of this, lot of men pretend to want realtionships to get sex.

So basically even though the way you put it makes it seem like women have more options , the actually just get lied to more:?

[Kalinda]

Anyone. I never find anyone attractive.

One guy ever and were in a resltiosnhip

I don't think its common women date men they are not attracted to. I don't know anyone who does that womenan or man. But peoeple get attracted by differnt things.

[Asker]

That would make me think you don't have a physical or sexual attraction to men, only an emotional one.

[Kalinda]

Why emotional? I mean why assume I hav any attraction at all if you're assuming I have no physical attraction?

What would make you think I have an emotional attraction?

[Asker]

"I never find anyone attractive.

One guy ever and were in a relationship" because you said that, and you mentioned you where in a relationship, if it was just physical why mention a relationship, and if no attraction at all why date him? English doesn't seem to be your first language and i am having trouble understanding you.

[Kalinda]

Fair answer:)

He's the only person I have been attracted to. So "never " as in "until now". But I am definitely heavily attracted to him physically and sexually :)

[bubble_tea]

Like anon girl said, because guys generally take less care of their looks. Eg how many of you guys take 1-2 hours (without breakfast) to get ready to leave the house? Not many compared to girls. Not saying everyone should take 1-2 hours to leave the house, just explaining why there are more attractive girls than attractive guys.

I wouldn't date those I personally don't find good looking. They might be less good looking to others, but 'I' have to find him good looking. Sometimes the inner traits are what makes him more dateable than a guy with slightly better physical looks but worse inner traits.

[SurströmmingLover]

1-2 hours of taking care of looks for men?

[bubble_tea]

@SurströmmingLover some guys do that, but not as many as girls.

[bethhh29]

I kind of agree. I'm honestly not physically attracted to a huge amount of men by just a glance at them. I become attracted to their personality traits and then become more attracted to their looks, but that's just me.

More girls try harder to be attractive than guys do.

Women's attraction to men is less visual and more utilitarian. It all goes back to what each gender values in the other. To women, men are providers and protectors and those things are what make men attractive to women, whether consciously or unconsciously.

[Asker]

i am not talking about the whole package of dating, i am talking purely about the % of men they find somewhat good looking

[kheserthorpe]

My answer was too long (and I've said too often) so I made it a myTake.

Enjoy:

[Asker]

Yeah i have heard the pareto's principle argument before, caused by bateman's principle

[kheserthorpe]

I think we tend towards that in a hookup environment, and tend towards a 1:1 situation when monogamy is enforced.

In some ways though, flashing photos at women asking them for a rating is getting the hookup distribution, in spite of the fact that a majority are operating in 'relationship' space.

[Asker]

reproductive dynamics make it seem right, as in a man can knock up 5 women in a day, a women can only get knocked up once in 9 months, so you only need a small amount of men to knock up all the women, thus women will be attracted to a smaller amount of men compared to the amount of women, men are attracted to., i just re-posted that from one of my comments, yeah i agree with you, in the sense my standards for sex is far lower than my dating standards, i want to fuck every slightly attractive women on earth, but i only ant to date a few.

[thatcomplicatedgirl]

A study says so. Makes sense. Girls can be quite picky, but physical attractive doesn't mean anything to us. We work through emotions more, so emotional connection with a guy is the priority while looking for a relationship. At least for me.

[Asker]

men are pretty much the stark opposite

[aamy811]

I find a lot of people attractive for the dumbest shit. Once heard a guy say a funny joke in highschool and had a crush on him for 4 years. It doesn't take much for me to find you attractive

[Asker]

That isn't physical attraction, i am asking what % of guys you think are somewhat good looking.

[demonology]

asker, if you're asking solely about physical attraction. . .

if you showed me 100 sexy men, i would be attracted to none of them. i have to hear them speak. i need to know that they are not total retards.

[Asker]

So you have no visual attraction to men? then i will rephrase, how many would you say are good looking from an aesthetic standpoint? funny how you need to hear them speak to know they aren't retards and be attracted to them, but had a crush on a guy for telling a funny joke, even the biggest idiot could tell a funny joke.

[aamy811]

That wasn't even my comment, so I don't know the your talking about

[Asker]

o sorry, i thought it was you, my bad.

[demonology]

source?

i can recognize "attractiveness" in men and women, but i am not attracted based on looks alone. i can fall in love with someone who doesn't fit this category based on their personality, actions, and character.

[Asker]

No source, empirical knowledge, although reproductive dynamics make it seem right, as in a man can knock up 5 women in a day, a women can only get knocked up once in 9 months, so you only need a small amount of men to knock up all the women, thus women will be attracted to a smaller amount of men compared to the amount of women, men are attracted to. And almost all men can be attracted on looks alone.

[Anonymous]

Because 80 percent of women ARE attractive..

Guys are ugly and never try.. we would think you were attractive if you WERE attractive were no blind !..

Work out
Do your hair
Smell good
Dress nice
Be nice
Groom
...
You think girls just wake up like that?

.. guys need to quit bitchin about not getting girls and being ugly if they do nothing about it..
imagine if girls did this... quit fucking crying already

[Ihav2fart]

Guess I'm attractive then

[Opinion Owner]

Probably not. those are only bare minimum

[Asker]

male and female sexuality is very different, "straight"women are more visually aroused by other women as female sexuality is narcissistic, www.indiana.edu/.../...ers_Seto_Blanchard_2007.pdf , i am a fitness model and the average women will have a higher potential reproductive fitness success. No 80% of women aren't attractive, even with my high testosterone. This is the reason why: a man can knock up 5 women in a day, a women can only get knocked up once in 9 months, so you only need a small amount of men to knock up all the women, thus women will be attracted to a smaller amount of men compared to the amount of women, men are attracted to.

[notverycreativeguy]

Funny. 80 percent of women like shit and you are probably one of them.

[Asker]

This is also purely sexual attraction, i can tell a women doesn't look good, but ill still want to have sex with her, doesn't mean i would ever date her.

[Hannah591]

When out on the town, nearly every guy I see, I find attractive in some way. It's personal preference though. I'm not very picky and I'm open minded. If someone's lovely, I'll give them the time of day, no matter what they look like.

[girlandhermusic]

We find plenty of men attractive. Some are cute, hot or smokin’ :D We’re just better at hiding it.

[Anonymous]

Then the other percentage should work on their body

[Asker]

Of the women? yeah! nothing turns me off more than a fat body.

[Izzex3]

I won't date anyone I'm not attracted to.
I don't know anyone who'd do that either.

[ThatGuy98]

I'm a guy and I don't even find 20% of girls attractive..

[ihatethiswebsite]

I probably find like less than 10 percent of women attractive

[Asker]

woh, good luck with that then.

[Anonymous]

Eyes are something which attract me. Don't know why but a lot of guys are unattractive to me if I don't find the depth in their eyes.

[Anonymous]

Guys focus more on physical...

[Asker]

i am not talking about the whole package of dating, i am talking purely about the % of men they find somewhat good looking

[Opinion Owner]

Sorry... I see. Good question.
