Why is it so hard for women to admit a man is attractive?

Question

Finchie40 · Accepted Answer

Because some females’ don’t like praising a guy so much , because she fears he might let it go to his head , and eventually no longer be interested in her , she probably told her exes how attracted they were and they eventually left her or cheated on her , so she puts a wall up to protect herself from having her heart shit on again , so she doesn’t express herself like she use to , unless the guy is not attractive at all, than that’s a different story , Some girls’ have a hard time admitting she is very attracted to a guy mainly for that reason , So if she is spreading her legs to you , trust me she finds you attractive , just some girls’ won’t admit it for that reason , I dated a few that had a hard time expressing herself
To me , the second I started to walk away , she would come chasing me back and saying things she should have said to me before. Some Girls’ are tricky this way.

Because in a woman's psychology to show a man desire or physical interest means she's weak or desperate like how they view men for showing desire or interest vice versa. Keep in mind that women have a need to retain some sort of sexual power or superiority over men.

It's also because some women will feel awkward or embarrassed around a guy after telling him he's good looking. Women's social brain is very weird and they are more self-conscious and paranoid socially than we are.

I don't think it's hard at all. I mean, they call be average or unattractive.

I think that John F. Kennedy was strikingly attractive!

I myself have dated and was married to very attractive guys. One was 10 years younger than me and when he came into my work to pick me up for our lunch date, the girls in my office went gaga over him.
My husband was so attractive that the President of the company I worked for, his secretary said to me after she met my husband "When you're done with him, send him over to me".

I had just given birth to his son and took the baby into my work so everyone could meet him and she popped up and said that to me!! WOW!!

i don't think it's hard for women to admit a man is attractive, if she doesn't admit it then she doesn't find him attractive, in fact women aren't even that picky with looks, we kind of have a weird taste when it comes to physics, women even created a whole new concept of ''ugly hot'' which means when someone is lowkey ugly but they somehow draw your attention

lightbulb27 · Answer

if he rejects her, she gets hurt. some of their self esteems are not strong. their hormones shift and when down, they are already sad... add rejection and loneliness and desperation ontop of that.

RavVid · Answer

Evolutionarily, girls have never been happy with men as they are.

The first thing Homo Erectus Girl did was to sexual select men to be taller than thought it would be good if they were smarter than them and sexually selected for that as well to give a current 5 IQ point differential in favor of men.

Homo Erectus Guy focussed instead on sexual selection for cuteness with the result that most men can be happy with most girls today.

However girls still aren't happy with men's height and want smarter too so they are still working on this and just haven't got around to male attractiveness yet.

CupcakeTheDestroyer · Answer

What men find attractive in other men is assumed to be what women find attractive and to an incredibly shallow and materialistic degree, this is true. But women also look for other attributes men tend to ignore in their standards for being attractive.

jennifer_bloom · Answer

I judge a man’s attractiveness by his visible cultural and apparitional relevance and masculine elegance; raw biometrics and stats has virtually no bearing surrounding how attractive I find him to be. Which is why I will give a 1 out of 10 ratings to many famous male models with 1 being ugly beyond belief.

Nikki1989 · Answer

What women find attractive and what men find attractive are often two very different things. Men tend to think of looks in stereotypes.

zagor · Answer

I don't know. Maybe they think it will be a come-on.

I remember my sister debating whether to tell a male co-worker that another girl they worked with was interested in him. She thought it might be tantamount to saying "hey I know some hot pussy for you".

shades777 · Answer

When a woman really really likes a man she will tell him all types of bold stuff especially when she's comfortable.

I'm surprised by the stuff women find attractive about me, things I don't even work on or can change for that matter like my eyes. I guess I can make my eyes more clear, try contacts or thick glass frames.

The point being is I'm thinking my muscles would have a bigger impact but for women they like stuff about you you don't even focus on

They don't want to be judged for it, and I know that because guys don't want to be judged for their preferences, lol. That's why you see the three six philosophy (6 figures, 6 foot tall, 6 pack) in pretty much every preference now. It's an hive mind because they don't want to be different, because different means outcast. Obviously it's on a general level

NathanDavis · Answer

I've been told to be attractive sometimes... they didn't see to be struggling, they just said it, lol

josepppiiii · Answer

I’ve seen some very fit cute faced women with some very ugly overweight men. I myself am with an overweight girl who is fun to hang out with. I’m a 40 year old man and I’ll say this what I find attractive is someone who is real and fun to be around and do things with. I’m at a point where looks don’t matter nearly as much as my enjoyment to be around the person. Someone could be very good looking but if they aren’t fun to be around no thanks

IslaTheWitch · Answer

it's not, but a man can be attractive, when I got to know him... so some time is needed :D

ClassicDropout · Answer

Its not when they actually know the guy. I do think its funny how every time a guy posts a selfie, all the pink accounts call him ugly and 0/10 even tho the guy looks fine.

blueonblack22 · Answer

You worry about losing power. You worry about him not feeling the same way and rejecting you. Or toying with you for his own ends.

Valdemort · Answer

It's not. Either the moment hasn't arrived yet for it to be said, or she doesn't think he's attractive.

This assumption would need a context, without it I don't know how to connect that to what I see

It's not hard at all. I would say that easily. Though if I have a crush on him things change 😃

thatshydork · Answer

It’s not, we just don’t think the same features are attractive.

Sounds like you're coping from a rejection here

beefcakebradybatson · Answer

Women aren't accustomed to GQ cover boy handsome men, especially black men, certainly not at age 71.

Anonymous · Answer

Maybe she doesn't find them attractive? Would you rather have a lie or the truth?

KrakenAttackin · Answer

Probably the same reason it so hard for a woman to say "I'm sorry, I was wrong".

12karen · Answer

maybe the man isn't that attractive to her, it's not hard at all

Anonymous · Answer

It has been unfashionable for the last decade for women to say anything positive about men.
