Typically a prettyboy is someone between the ages of 14 and 30. Their face looks feminine yet also manly. The term "boyish good looks" come to mind. They have nice hair that fits their face, clear skin and fairly defined features (jawline, abs, some muscle) etc. An example would be actor Leonardo DiCaprio when was in his 20's and male model Francisco Lachowski at the beginning of this decade.Now, I have another question for you ladies. How often do you see prettyboys in your area? And another question is that would you date or hook up with one? Do you older ladies not find them attractive?
What do girls think of "prettyboys" and how do they react to them (in public and in private)?
I really liked pretty boys in my teens and i had few pretty boys at school with me but they were always the really popular boys who were really mean and got all the girls. So i knew i had no chance and i found their personalitys to be disgusting not saying all pretty boys are like this just the ones I've came across. One of these guys at school actually had a massive crush on me as i was seen as a very pretty girl at school but i didn't really fit in and was very shy so i never believed it and knew he had bad intentions.
My stister boyfriend to be fair is a very pretty boy, he's very shy and sweet. He lacks a lot of confidence even though he's very handsome but he covers up his face with his big beard that ruins his looks, everyone wants to see him shave it off but i think he likes it because he thinks it makes him look manly.
I myself have grown out of all the pretty boys and i dont want a guy who looks more feminine than myself, it feels creepy and weird to me sometimes when they have slight female features. I much prefer big manly men looking guys now like Tom Hardy
I liked them when I was 12. But I am attracted to men that look rough or strong. I like a guy who gets his hands and his woman dirty. One who has that face that says man... he has been through some stuff. Plus if your boyfriend spends more tine in the bathroom getting pretty than you do, well you have a girlfriend. Nothing against having a girlfriend either. If I want someone feminine then I would be with a woman. I am 32 also if that's old enough to count as older.

If I’m being completely honest I hate “prettyboys”. They know that they are good looking so they use that to their advantage to attract all the attention. I don't know but from personal experiences I have I believe that most, not all, of them are fuckboys in some way. I always avoid them now cause I fell for one of them tricks before and I don’t want to be played again. It’s heart breaking to see people being led on by some prick.
When I see them I do sometimes check them out a little just as most guys would check out a hot girl I guess lol. Most people generally enjoy looking at good looking people. Although very attractive, prettyboys aren't typically the type I would date as I personally haven't had great experiences with guys like this as they're often fuckboys sadly.
They make me feel all tingly in my special place. And also instill some degree of rage. Rage boner. That's it.
I had a few pretty boy friends when I was a teenager. I noticed I liked them more than the ugly guys. Completely platonically. I'm 99% not gay; but, I did notice in retrospection that I liked them better by default.
As for chicks, those are the kind of guys in the top 20%. The boyishness might be a turn off for some women; but, the wide jawline, the square chin, those are unequivocally masculine characteristics. Yeah, they're all over that shit.
Personality matters more than anything for women, in general. But guys with looks in the top 20% qualify for the finals by default, more often than not. If they don't fuck it up by being socially unintelligent.
I'm not a prettyboy myself but I have to be best friends with one. Just like someone else said, not all prettyboys are scumbags. They just won the genetic lottery and ran with it. One thing I noticed in all prettyboys I met is that they're incredibly popular with both genders, yet they don't really care about girlfriends. All the prettyboys I know hang out with other guys and rarely hang out with girls. Prettyboys can be really fun and cool people and we need to stop automatically judging someone as a scumbag just by his/her looks.
I don't believe most girls like pretty boys in real life that's some fantasy girls crush on in Hollywood an actor type deal cuz the girls are very insecure and they'll think that the pretty boy in real life will leave her at any given moment and find another girl
I don't think much of them. From my experience, most of the time they're fake... they present themselves as cute, gullible type, promising everything... but in reality they're just like any other guy who thinks they're too good looking and get any girl they want. Air head if you ask me.
Women between like teenage years to early/mid twenties tend to like these types because they seem 'safe' and more boyish. Clean shaven, slim body, perfect skin, baby fat faces etc.
But look at the men women prefer past 25,26 etc. They prefer men with broad shoulders, hairy, rough skin, more muscular, lean faces etc. Typically masculine.
So women like prettyboys but I think there is a window, and more mature women for the most part (always exceptions) prefer a more manly looking man.
It's stupid really how all girls here operate under the immediate assumption and assertion that a pretty boy is a no good scumbag and automatically dismiss him. I actually feel bad for those genuine, really good looking dudes who gets judged out instantly and aren't given the time of day. Flip it around however and you have outrage if someone dismisses unattractive people on the same premise. Double standards.
For me, a pretty boy is not a pretty boy just because he has a handsome, boyish face. To me, a pretty boy is a metrosexual, good-looking, feminized man. I have never been attracted to them in the least. It's funny, I realized a long time ago that the sentiment is typically mutual, so we naturally repel each other. So when I meet them I just feel indifferent towards them.
My school is teeming with pretty boys. They all look great of course but they have awful personalities. Anyway, I don’t react to them any differently than I react to other people.
I attract a lot of them. I have no idea why. I've dated them but mostly attracted to more unconventional beautiful/looking men more than stereotypical.
The same. If it was MY prettyboy though, the private part would be a bit different

They're good looking, but as a sensible person, I wouldn't date or like one until I knew they don't have a shit personality. Plenty of rude pretty boys in my upbringing, so🤷♀️ Nothing special

I don't like them. At all. Their looks and attitude is bothering me for some reason. I can't really put a finger on it.
