Why do straight women say that the female body is more aesthetically attractive the body of a male?

[ADFSDF1996]

Do women not find men attractive? All over different websites I see women claiming to be straight that say that the female's body is more attractive than the body of a male. They say that the female body is more "aesthetically" attractive yet they say they are straight. Not just the body, they also say that the female's face is also more attractive. So that means they don't find the face of a man attractive? I guess I won't feel in love anymore, if all they care about is personality. I still find women attractive but it's shame women don't find us men attractive. Honest answers please, no sarcasm or insults.

Let me rewrite the question because of a typo. Why do straight women say that the female body is more aesthetically attractive than the body of a male?

[Anonymous]

I find women's bodies to be attractive, but it can't compare to a male's body. I would never want to have sex with a woman. The idea of that makes me uncomfortable. I get turned on the male body, and if he has an attractive face, it's definitely a plus.

You're the only person I know of that hates if someone likes their personality, however.

[ADFSDF1996]

Well for me I rather have the woman like me for my personality, body shape and facial structure. If she only likes me for one of those then I won't even consider dating her.

[fauchelevent]

People tend to be drawn to smooth lines and soft curves - women's bodies have that, men's bodies don't, they're more angular. I would assume that some straight women may find that more visually appealing even if they don't wanna jump on top of her.

[ADFSDF1996]

Interesting, but what about when it comes to facial features?

[fauchelevent]

Even so, women tend to have what are considered more aesthetically pleasing features - longer eyelashes, bigger eyes, fuller lips, higher cheekbones. You also have to remember that women usually put much, much more effort into their appearance in terms of make up and skin care routines. Men tend to do the bare minimum of shaving and keeping their hair clean. Women go a little further, they work to enhance their features, which may make them seem more appealing too.

[ADFSDF1996]

So that means women don't really find us men attractive? Like us men find women attractive. All women care about is personality? That's very sad.

[fauchelevent]

It doesn't mean that women don't find you attractive. The whole point of this is that there are different types of attraction. Whilst women's bodies may be more aesthetically attractive to many people, straight women will be unable to find them sexually attractive. They'll be nice to look at the same way art is, but they're not going to feel any lust or arousal towards them. Straight women have the ability to view men as both aesthetically and sexually attractive.

[ADFSDF1996]

So straight women can see both men and women aesthetically attractive but only see men sexually attractive? I can't find anything attractive on a man, even if he is a supermodel. I can only find women attractive, that's why I asked the question.

[Jxpxtxr]

Women's bodies are just generally more aesthetically pleasing - women's bodies are basically there to look at while with men's bodies it's not so much about the visuals but more about what they do with them.

[ADFSDF1996]

I've gotten various answers, I guess some women find the male body more aesthetically pleasing while some women don't, how about you?

[ADFSDF1996]

That's what really confuses me. If a woman doesn't even find a man physically attractive, then why does she even date a man?

[Jxpxtxr]

I prefer women physically, that doesn't mean that men don't have anything going for them look-wise, they're just different and more rough looking. I personally really like that about men though & of course their muscles. And another huge factor about physicality is that they're just stronger so there's a lot of things men can do for me that women can't, plus I feel more protected when I'm with a man.
All of that doesn't change the fact that I find women more visually attractive, but it doesn't mean that I prefer dating women.

[ADFSDF1996]

What about facial features, which gender do you think has better facial features? Do you consider yourself bisexual?(you don't need to answer if it's too personal.)

[Jxpxtxr]

That's hard to say, I've seen stunning women and stunning men but if I would have to judge by the average person I think women win here, as well - and yes I'm bisexual, but don't really have a preference in terms of gender.

[ADFSDF1996]

If you are Bisexual then I completely understand why you see women as being beautiful.

[Jxpxtxr]

But I also stated I have no preference in terms of dating either gender so I don't know if the fact that I'm bisexual is really relevant here..

[ADFSDF1996]

A person's sexuality plays a role in how they see genders. Don't worry though I am not judging you.

[carinerose]

Not me lmao. I find the male body way more aesthetically attractive than the female body. I can't deny that the female body is attractive too, but it does nothing to me. What you're stating is inane.

[ADFSDF1996]

On google type "are women more attractive than men?" You'll get a bunch of pages where women claim that they find women more attractive than men, not only that I personally notice women always saying "Oh my she's so beautiful".

[carinerose]

I don't care what google says. Plus, we DO find other women attractive, it doesn't mean we find them more attractive than men.

[ADFSDF1996]

When you say you find men attractive, do mean in a romantic way? i see that you do find other women attractive (not saying there is anything bad about that). Why is it that women find other women attractive but men can't find other men attractive? For me I don't see anything attractive in men, if a woman shows me a picture of a supermodel I won't find that male supermodel attractive. If a man for some reason calls another man attractive he is instantly labeled as "gay"(not saying there is anything wrong with gays). Also one last thing, what about a man's face? Do you find a man's face attractive just like how us straight men find women's faces attractive? Look at the opinions from the other females here.

[carinerose]

Okay slow down. I think the problem here is that you do not quite understand that attraction works in both ways. It's not only guys that find girls attractive, there has to be attraction from both parts otherwise, no reproduction. And men have a problem in admitting that another man is hot. Actually, some insecure guys do. Most guys I know in real life actually CAN tell if another man is attractive. It doesn't mean they're attracted to them sexually--same as us straight girls finding another girl attractive. I can't tell if you're trolling or not.

[ADFSDF1996]

No I am not trolling, I am just worried that women don't actually find men physically attractive. It really bothers me, I couldn't even sleep last night thinking about this. Sorry if it sounds to paranoid. I just needed answers but thanks for answering my question.

[GreatnessRevamped]

Because the female body is made to be attractive vs the male body which is more utilitarian.
Women's bodies have curves and crevices.
Men's bod's have angles and sharp angle.

[ADFSDF1996]

I am a straight man, so of course I am going to agree with you. Still though I've always wondered how women see us men.

[Azara]

sharp angles are beautiful. lol if womens bodies were made to be beautiful they would not get the shit kicked out of them with child birth and models would have average female bodies not bodies that resemble teenage boys with breasts.

[Anonymous]

These women you speak of are not "straight" women, whether or not they deny their homo/bisexuality.

[ADFSDF1996]

I agree.

[Azara]

i dont say that. if both are equally lean perhaps but women usually carry more fat which makes the body look messy. plus i think muscles are beautiful if they are not bulging everywhere.

[Anonymous]

The majority of the population as of now is overweight. Women tend to be better at carrying fat than men. However, guys who are actually in shape are very aesthetically pleasing to the eye, it's just that the average guy doesn't really doesn't have that great of a body

[ADFSDF1996]

"It's just that the average guy doesn't really have that great of a body"
You mean like men that are out of shape? What about when it comes to facial structure?

[Opinion Owner]

Yeah and fat tends to hide good facial structure as well.

[ADFSDF1996]

You're right, obesity does hide good facial structure on people. However I don't find men attractive, so I only notice the facial structures on women.

[Littledunmer]

Because they are I guess. The only thing men have going for them are weiners😍Everyone loves weiners😛

[ADFSDF1996]

So you don't find guys attractive?

[Littledunmer]

If I had to pick between Scarlett johansens body and Channing Tatums body, I'd say Scarlett is more aesthetic. That doesn't mean I don't like hot sexy male bodies, but there just not as beautiful.

Maybe Scarlett would look REALLY nice with a penis🤔 Oh Don't mind me I'm just being a perv in my head.

[ADFSDF1996]

Do you consider yourself bisexual?

[Littledunmer]

Actually I've never once wanted to have sex with anyone, Girl or guy. But I do know what an attractive body looks like, and I know that penis is the most amazing thing to look at😊 I think I'm pretty straight but who knows. Who cares? It's not like I couldn't be happy with any girl or guy of I really was in love.

[ADFSDF1996]

True, I am not judging you.

[genericname85]

it´s like saying "guys look stronger" it´s not a sexual orientation thing. it´s a observational thing.

[mrfoox]

I'm not straight so i can't say

[apple24]

I don't say that. I like women body better though.

[ADFSDF1996]

That's exactly what I mean. So basically you don't get turned on by men?

[ADFSDF1996]

If you are lesbian or bisexual then it's completely understandable. If your straight then it's confusing.

[apple24]

No I am not sure. I think I do with the right kind of guy!

[apple24]

I don't know what I am.

[ADFSDF1996]

Would you find the man physically attractive (handsome face, nice body) or just for his personality (respectful, charismatic)?

[apple24]

both.

[ADFSDF1996]

So the guy needs to be physically attractive and have a nice personality?

[apple24]

Yup! Also tons of patience. But right Now I am not the best person to be in a relationship with
