Why do girls have unrealistic standards?

Question

So apparently u won't be considered to girls unless u were lucky with a good face. A haircut can do something cuz that changes ur face but like working out prolly won't do shit for you. I'm convinced that girls dont get sexually attracted to a body, plus when ur in public ur shirt is always on so it really makes no sense. Or u could spend years getting that body just for some random girls to say a dad body is sexy which makes even no sense. It's pretty much over if u get a haircut and ur still ugly basically. Guys standards ain't even high  Height ain't a big thing to us, and like a alright body is enough to put a below average girl at attractive sooo.

Because of "The illusion of choice."
Women are bombarded by so much male attention thanks to their complete lack of responsibility in how they dress in public and because of apps like tinder which allow them to simply pose a skanky photo and get infinite attention from desperate males.
So women have what they call the "illusion of choice" where their standards become so ridiculous because they feel they deserve perfection and won't settle for anything less than perfect.

It's only when they hit the wall and their looks start to fade that they become less shallow and a little more desperate as they become dumpy and expired.

because women nowadays aren't used to having their demands denied. so many dudes nowadays are cucked up enough to meet their demands till the point that they feel every man must behave this way and fulfill their demands. this isn't the case for us men, we instead get ridiculed and frown on whenever we set our standards.

lets not forget that unlike us who are happy with having a pussy to fuck, women in the other hand dont just want a dick. they want the dick that will make them feel superior in all of her aspects in life.

Another rejected. Call 911. He's experiencing the symptoms of trauma. Disbelief. Cockiness. Clouded thinking.
biased beliefs. Victimization.

in other battle cry words

"i wish every girl i go up to for the most part say yes and that they realize they ain't anything to have standards. This way its easier for me to deal with my lackings and live in a fantasy. I got my bod. I did all the steps. I deserve her pussy. her love. I studied! I swear I know it all? but if i get rejected then its fucked. Im fucked. Fuck women. Blame it on feminism. They are all whores. Fuck it. "

Both genders get rejected. You think women get the love they need? fuck no.. Women have to be mysterious but vulnerable. Sexy but innocent. Cooks. cleans. sweet but a twinkle in her eye. Resilent to put up with all the mens emotional disconnection with themselves impacting their conscious decisions.. that they regret later. A career ambitious woman with friends because they dont want a clingy gold digging woman. Oh but able to be emotionally reasonable despite our biological affects. Women are amazing creatures built to handle things. Men aren't easy either.. say one thing do another.

I feel like I’ve voiced my annoying and over dramatic opinions on generalizing all girls (or guys) and acting like they’re one and the same to the point where some people probably already know what I’m going to say (since I’ve pretty much copy and pasted this exact comment ten times) (I didn’t actually copy and paste it, it was an exaggeration to express the countless times I’ve reiterated the same basic opinion) but anyway...
Some girls are extremely picky with high standards (in regards to physical attractiveness and maybe cliched personality traits.) Some guys are extremely picky with high standards (in regards to physical attractiveness and maybe cliched personality traits) Nobody is the same and no gender is the same as much as society would like to convince you otherwise.
You hear guys complain about “impossible standards that they wouldn’t have to deal with if they were a girl.”
Girls complain about “impossible standards they wouldn’t have to deal with if they were a guy”
The grass is always greener on the other side. I know guys who won’t date a girl for extremely small, shallow, insignificant reasons. I know girls who won’t date guys for small, shallow, insignificant reasons. Everyone thinks they have it harder when I really have it the hardest (again, a joke)
I could go on but what I’ve said already basically covers it and I’m tired

Hmmm... I think your trying too hard and that's blinded you from other girls that you might not even notice like shubby ones or super skinny ones or muscular to actually be starring at you because it sounds like your trying to show off that six pack to put the attention away from your face. I think there's always a handful of people we'll cross paths within our lifetime that actually loved our facial features. I thought jet li was ugly but he was married twice. So please don't think we're all the same because we're not. I've dated muscular and fat men so... yeah a six pack won't make me decide if I like you for me it's if you can have long conversations with me, be humble and smart. All the guys I've had crushes of or dated had those qualities despite their physical appearance I. e. I thought Chris pratt was hot even before he got more famous and lost weight. I'm sure you fit right on someone's dream of what a real man looks like face and all so unrealistic standards not really. You know what a realistic standard is? A man with a job because it means his a provider. A fat guy well he loves to eat and so do I. A skinny guy well we can share the same jeans. A muscular guy well I'll feel protected and safe under his arms. And yes haircuts can assentuate your face or not help at all i. e. I have big cheeks so straight hair makes me look gross so there's no way in hell I'll do that to myself. So if you want someone fake that will leave you when you get old saggy and what not then keep showing off that good looking body of yours but if your looking for that quality woman you can work out with then look around at the ones you'll never think of looking at twice who can stare into your eyes and not blink.

It’s cause they can there are desperate men who worship women and put them on pedestals. Think about it a women can post a random picture that we all know is ugly but yet there will be tons of guys complimenting her and rating her 10/10. Because of these white knight simps girls all think they are perfect and deserve no less. See this is men’s fault for constantly giving women compliments and validation. Women can be picky because men are desperate. Us guys need to ignore women and quit giving them attention

BrittBratt2416 · Answer

Sorry, but men are the ones who are the most visual when it comes to physical attraction. You guys tell us that all the time. So whenever women bring up that whole body positive ordeal, you guys are usually the ones to shut it down first. And yes, women do want a man who is physical attractive as well but we look a little bit deeper when it comes to choosing a mate.

Rica_ChicaUSA · Answer

1) As someone said, face is important, and it kinda determines what my kids will look like, so yeah I want a handsome dude.
2) Yes, we DO consider the body, since a fit body is attractive. (Dad bodies are ugly af to me. I don't know why people like them so much, but that's just my opinion.)
3) There is a lot more to the standards than that for some of us, but they aren't "unrealistic" if they can be met. Yes, that means that most guys won't meet them (sorry to bust your bubble), but it means that the guys who do meet them are the most desirable to us.

Because they can afford to be choosy as they get a lot of male attention, so much so that it can be a problem for them.

It would be nice to even out the attention so women weren't bombarded with date requests and guys actually got some but there's no easy way to do that.

jennifer_bloom · Answer

Girls are supposed to marry guys who can be good fathers to their children - this is why woman react to personality more than looks. Just imagine if woman were having babies with hot guys and not employed and educated and compassionate and supportive men - children would be abandoned by their fathers everywhere.

GiveitaShance · Answer

For the most part we want someone who practices good hygiene, who has a job and works hard for what he's got, someone's who is loyal, and someone who is great with kids. Someone who is good looking takes care of himself and takes pride in how he looks. That is what women admire.

fashionguy17 · Answer

I didn't read. No offense. Lol. I already know what you mean by your title. The answer is simple. Social media and dating sites.

With social media and dating sites, men compliment women all day long.

When you are complimented all day on your beauty, you can get an inflated ego and think you deserve more.

Dating sites aren't any better. Dating sites is just like going shopping. You can pick exactly what you are looking for, so women's choices get narrower and pickier.

demurefaithe · Answer

These are the kinds of girls who cheat, the ones who find every little thing wrong, and are very immature. Looks should be thought about after you have gotten an impression of the person. Even in dating, you cannot force your man to dress a certain way. Men are already insecure, unless he in fact is lucky. I would say it's an individual thing. If she doesn't accept you for you, she isn't the one.

MsElizabeth96 · Answer

I Don't know where you're getting any of this from?

When it comes to what guys girls like, personality is usually no.1 most important, it can change everything. Working out will definitely help you too, and yes people can still see what body type you have under a shirt

happyhedgehog · Answer

Don't worry too much about what girls think is attractive. Everybody has different opinions, and you can't be attractive to every girl in the world. In the end you only need one, and she's going to like you for who you are, not your body or what you look like. It's pointless to focus so much on these things when we all get old someday anyway. When you're old do you want someone that only likes you for your looks, or do you want someone who sticks with you because they love YOU?

Emmalouise03 · Answer

nah ok ur just a teenage boy surrounded by teenage girls, that's not reality, most girls aren't as picky with guys as u think, i don't expect anyone to be perfect or even close to perfect.
when i fall in love, i mainly fall in love with the personality first, and then i fall in love with their looks as well. that's what usually happens, he doesn't have to be a fucking model for me to fall for him:3

Passinggas · Answer

Because they have had sensationalism conditioning as an artifact of media marketing to sell, crap but their tiny minds can't discern that from reality. Personally, I go for the scraggly ass wenches I think due to spite of the status quo.

FunkyMonkee · Answer

They believe all those princess fairy tales they were told as little girls and still stupidly think that's going to happen in real life, someday!! I've never heard of a guy doing the same thing! Why is that?

Justacatlady · Answer

Haha guys standards aren’t high! Okay 👌
Everyone, every gender has an ideal. Just because you have a preference doesn’t mean you are a bad person. You make it seem like because super hot chicks aren’t throwing themselves at ugly dudes that women have unrealistic wants. Dudes want attractive, fit women just as much as women want attractive for men.

MajesticTwelve · Answer

Some have unrealistic expectations. But so do men. It's all about people and not gender driven, and the important part is "Not all women/men" possess this quality you speak of.

dobby-is-a-free-elf · Answer

My standers aren’t unrealistically high all I want is a guy who I’ve been friends with who can make me laugh and doesn’t cheat. I don’t care about looks because I’d date them for their heart.

AnnaCavallii · Answer

This isn’t true, Looks were so important to me until the ugliest guy in school asked me to prom.. and he became super good looking all of sudden. Now he looks even better that we graduated 5 and 6 years ago
