Does money make a man attractive to women?

[Anonymous]

What I mean is if a man demonstrates that he has a lot of money, would a woman instantly want to sleep with him?

If you're a guy, answer what you think is true for the majority of women.
If you're a girl, answer what you think is true for you.

By money, I also mean expensive things like cars, houses, clothes.

I'm curious about the gender balance in the voting.

Definitely. Women are massively attracted to wealthy men.

Yes, it makes a man more attractive.

It makes no difference.

It makes a man less attractive.

Other (Please explain)

The general consensus among many men on this site is that women will fuck any guy as long as he's rich and all we chase is huge dicks, tall model-esque guys, and money.

Obviously very untrue. Sure rich guys tend to attract women, but the women who date a guy for his money only are a different breed.

I have ZERO desire to have sex with someone just because they are wealthy. If I'm having sex with someone its because I love them and physical attraction is a given.

Proving to be financially stable though will definitely help you in dating. I think a lot of guys also confuse girls going for guys who have their shit together financially with gold digging.

Well what I'm talking about is say there's two guys, both seem ok. One is a little more arrogant and has a $1 million car and expensive clothes. The other has average car and clothes but seems more humble. Would most girls not flock to the guy with the car?

[been_waiting]

Depends entirely on how she feels about the personalities of the guys

[Asker]

So you really don't think that a massive amount of wealth will make a huge difference to the majority of women compared to personality (assuming the other guy has an average wage)?

[been_waiting]

Not to average women no.
But a rich guy will always attract gold diggers

I voted B, money can make a guy more attractive because money can represent power, hard work, passion, and determination; all very attractive qualities. Another reason why money can make a guy more attractive is that it's a comfort thing and you can take care of her. Additionally, somewhat going along with comfort, is that you can provide a good life for your future kids as well, and you'll have more options as far as if you both want, she can work less or not at all so she can dedicate time to taking care of your kids. But with more superficial girls, the biggest thing they'd like about dating a rich guy is all the material things they can buy with the money.

But of course that's not the most important thing to girls if that's what you're asking. Sure, money can make a guy more attractive, but personality is what counts much more- and a good personality is much more attractive than a big bank account- especially in the long run.

It's not a women issue. It's societal. SOCIETY teaches everyone that MONEY = POWER, thus money is automatically more appealing to all. Most normal people know though that money means nothing in terms of falling in love with someone. We fall in love with a person not their bank account. A few gold diggers may see otherwise but those women do not love you or want you, they are in it for the money. Otherwise a girl looking for a relationship is not going to care unless you are a drug addict homeless guy who is going to steal her money, in which case your money would matter lol.

[Asker]

So most girls don't care at all about material things?

[upood]

not the ones seeking a meaningful relationship, no.

[MissMinaaaa]

It's not just the money "per se", but it's the fact that wealth shows success, determination, and diligence. If it's a guy flaunting his money or living off of their parents money, it shows the exact opposite. Other than that, money will never make a man more attractive, if anything, the woman will just follow the money while having the obstacle of needing to be in a relationship with a man in order to receive some too. I'm a coddle-baby, and my parents still buy me more than half of my things, so I get insulted on it a lot, but that's my input on things.

[Asker]

Thanks for answering.

Honestly, I'd like to think women don't care. But everytime it gets mentioned and I say it doesn't matter to girls, guys just laugh. I'm too naive apparently.

[MissMinaaaa]

Yeah, I don't know if I sound believable or not, but that's just my point of view. I honestly feel it does matter in means of personality and showing security for a prosperous life for a future family, but it could also be bait for a lot of women who want material things. But like I said, it wouldn't make you more attractive, but just more approachable.

i think i can speak for myself "anonymous" but i think that money at least to me, makes no difference. I don't care if a guy is too poor to afford a ring and i don't care if he could afford a replica of Kate Middleton's ring. the love coming from that relationship is all that matters

[Asker]

Why do you think so many guys disagree?

[KAZ-2Y5]

maybe they have been turned by a girl for a guy that has money? girls joke about wanting rich guys when really i know plenty of girls that admit they don't care

[Asker]

Honestly, this is one of those issues where guys just don't believe what girls say.

Whenever I tell other guys that women don't really mind, they just laugh. I'm sorry but I don't think that you're right.

[KAZ-2Y5]

yes but I can speak for myself and this is my personal opinion. And yes I would marry a guy who is poor if I truly love him. And guess what? my dad was too poor to buy a ring for my mom as he was a bull rider my mom was a preppy cheerleader he gave her a single gold band. They were married at 19 and 23 and have been together ever since and you want to tell me women want a guy with money? when my parents were richer, I remember being six years old and my dad asking me and my brother for advice on what my moms new ring should look like. and i told him a silver ring with diamonds all around it and guess what? That's exactly what he got for her

[Asker]

I hope my experiences prove you right.

[cjmtherfcker]

Watch the science of sex documentaries done by the science channel, or discovery. They did an experiment and women rated the same man a full 3 points higher when they thought he had money even though they were only supposed to be judging looks. Its a subconscious thing with them

[Asker]

I agree. I asked this question cos I saw a few videos whhere guys asked out girls next to their ridiculously expensive cars. The amount of crap the guys said and still, the girl went with them.

[GoodDogNigel]

Let's get one thing straight. Money and social status are huge turn-ons for women. However, anyone who says that women only care about money are idiots.

[atomique]

Truth pudding

[rebekahyouth]

Honestly, I don't care if a man is rolling in it, but I do care if he can't pay for our dates ever (and I'm ok with him not paying every time). But when the women starts supporting the man financially and he is dependent upon her (when it should be more of two equal and independent individuals) then there is a problem.

[Kabloosh75]

Money means financial security which means that if she chooses to be with that guy he is likely able to provide that protection she desires.

A relationship can't be completely built off of love. You're naive if you think that.

[Mustachekitteh]

Honestly doesn't really make him more attractive or not. Only thing money does is make living life easier and that's it. It's not just going to magically make the dude look more attractive.

[RationalLioness]

A guy could be filthy rich and I wouldn't want to fuck him. He can't be dirt poor and hot and I wouldn't sleep with him.

He should have a stable job and be attractive.

[Anonymous]

It makes a huge difference. I've seen examples where they put a below average looking guy and put his average wage next to his picture and girls rated his looks a 4. That same picture was put up except they put his wage as way above average and women rated his looks an 8.

[GlassHeart]

Lol no. yes money is important but im not gonna open my legs to a guy just because he's rich thats basically saying women are all gold diggers id rather make my own fortune

[llorando]

If they are gold diggers it does, but average woman it doesn't as personality is more important than wealth.

[Anonymous]

Of cource it will attract more women you may not get real answers here but in the real life rich man attract more girls coz of his money this is fact.

[Anonymous]

You will not get honest answers to this question from women. Instead of asking them, just watch what they do. The answer is obvious.

[Asker]

I know but still, I was curious what they'd say.

[GoodDogNigel]

@asker They'll say it doesn't matter, but there have been studies that show that, yes, it matters a lot.

Think of it this way, chicks scratch and fight to get a chance to even be NEAR a celebrity or rock star right? How many guys do you see killing each other to see Lady Gaga after a concert? None. Because there's a cute girl selling popcorn who they'll gladly talk to. A guy really doesn't care what a woman does for a living, while a woman will judge a man on his job and how much money he makes. This increases with age, and decreases again. A girl who's not in college won't care. A girl "in her prime" from around 21-50 will care increasingly with age. A woman after that won't care too much as long as he won't lose his house.

[Anonymous]

Ugly girls dont care about that shit
Its the hot ones that want the money

[Anonymous]

Honestly couldnt care less how much money a guy has, as long as he has enough to get by i dont care...

[Anonymous]

Ladies, just pointing out that this poll indicates 50% of you are gold diggers.

[been_waiting]

Only one clicked A.
B just means it makes him a bit more attractive. it doesn't say "I'll date a guy solely for his money" does it. No.

[Anonymous]

Depends on women, so I never date a girl who likes me because of my upper-middle-class background.

[Klaatu51]

only to gold diggers i suppose...

[albundyfan]

its not the money itself, but what it implies.
