What Girls Like In A Guy Besides His Appearance

[Anonymous]

Based on this previous Take, I write a Take about what girls like in a guy besides his appearance.

Body Odor

It seems to be empirically documented that body odor plays a role in sexual attraction for heterosexual women who are in the most fertile period in their menstrual cycles. However, it does not apply to women who are in less fertile periods of the menstrual cycle and women who are on hormonal contraceptives.

Social Graces

Men and women should exhibit proper social graces. Social graces help build relationships and make people like you. People like people who have a charming personality.

Independence

Based on my observations of the female comments on GirlsAskGuys, I think females want males to live independently, more than vice versa, or they will start attributing negative characteristics to the males who live with Mom and Dad. However, some cultures may value having aging parents living with the grown son in the son's own home, and the home may be inherited from the aging parents, so it's like the son has never left the childhood home.

Confidence

When people are confident, they know what they are doing and what they want. They are not afraid to admit their true motivations. Confidence boosts attractiveness, because it makes people straightforward and not use mind games.

Strong Moral Compass

I don't think any woman wants to be abused in a relationship with a man. Therefore, a strong moral compass is critical in selecting the man. Some men may appear older and wiser, but they act like boys, hooking up with prostitutes, gambling, drinking alcohol, smoking, and eating junk food. Those are long-time evils and signs of addiction.

Looks are still the most important and actually carry over into these other categories.. If you're hot you will probably be more confident in yourself and find socializing easier. Attractive people who are confident and good at socializing tend to better in the job market and earn more than their less attractive peers so that covers independence.

Now as long as you've got the other things covered most women will overlook whatever you're lacking un the moral compass category as long as you're not like a murderer or something.

Your totally right about all of those things. The guy I wear deodorant and I love the way he smells with it on!!!

Women in general are not that physically attracted to majority of males. We have evidence of this when women seldomly tell a male he is good looking/hot. Usually this only happens a lot with HOT men.

While the average male can very easily express that he finds a girl attractive.

In short women like what men can do for them, the feelings they give them and not necessarily the man himself physically. This is not to say you can be a poor, shit fuck and if you provide these things majority of women will fall in love with you; some will though.

Women have higher standards. Studies have shown women consider 80% of the male populace to be below average in looks so if you are really low on the look scale women won't go for you even if you go give her all these things. So each women has a minimum threshold for looks and if you can provide her vagina tingles and facilitate her desire she will want you.

[Opinion Owner]

To clarify my first statement. Women very rarely compliment men on their physical features while men constantly do this for women. This shows that women do not view majority of men as sexual objects. You only ever see women going wild and lusting after really, tall and good looking guys (this is without needing to have sex with them).

While I can understand and agree with most, I dont see how someone who drink alcohol, smoke or eat junk food makes anyone less moral. Beside, everyone has addictions anyway, and enjoying junk food or alcohol now and then dosent make people addicts nor again less moral.

[PrincessPanda]

If I saw my man with a beer ugh automatic turn off... why can't he handle whiskey like a real man?

[Tanuron]

@PrincessPanda Whatever people like :). Some prefer red wine, beer etc. I prefer liquors no doubt, preferably strong ones.

[PrincessPanda]

lol I was kidding but if I'm sipping Jameson and the guy is sipping wine, I might tease him a bit

[IceCubedude]

okay just gonna add few things , first if you're hot you can fk up much more and still be desired.

smell nice, thats really common sense nowadays , also one more thing about being confident and telling her what you really want... yeah it doesn't work, unless you're in for something serious iam sorry but being truthful is going to fk you up at best.

[AriadneSky]

if being honest doesn't get you what you want its bc she doesn't want what you want therefore has a right to know the truth. honesty is for other people more than for you. does not make it wrong.

[IceCubedude]

@AriadneSky if guys are honest everytime they talk to a girl 80% of them wouldn't get laid or have gfs

[Anonymous]

So why do girls ignore texts of guys who demonstrate these qualities?
Why do they act innocent around the good guys in their social circle who are attractive?
Why act less innocent around less attractive guys who are less polite and less sweet in their social circle?

[fsu19]

There's something else on this list that you're forgetting... I know cuz I probably don't have it, which is why I've always been single.

[AlwaysBelieving]

I think appearance is still at the top of the list. A gal (or anyone rather) can't like a guy for all listed (well, maybe #1 you can if you get close enough to him) unless she gets to know him.

[Saoirse_Nua]

Good points - All would be factors that a girl would take into consideration I think

[JustWorthlessMe]

It's all a lie w/o the admission of "none of these traits matter because if you don't have the looks, she'll never talk to you to discover the rest."

[LittleSally]

Awww that independence photo breaks my heart! :(

[bloodmountain1990]

what about personality?

[Unit1]

I got 4 out of 5 here.

Still single :P

[PrincessPanda]

Yeah well the other one, qualities guys like in a girl, I was all that and I'm single

[Unit1]

@PrincessPanda I think it's safe to say, that we just don't have that luck that some others have.

[PrincessPanda]

Nah I have ass thrown at me constantly, they just aren't dudes I like/I'm still hung up on someone... i feel like that cat that looks annoyed around all the hotdogs

[Unit1]

@PrincessPanda And I never got approached or asked out. Hell, I never even touched a girl in my life (exception: hands of female cashiers).

WOW! Where did my life go wrong /s

[PrincessPanda]

lol that's terrible. Maybe chicks are just so intimidated by your greatness 😜

[Unit1]

@PrincessPanda Ayyy :D
Yep. I'm just too good to be true ^^
