What qualities do women have that make you feel intimidated?

[demonics]

Women often confuse intimidating with 'off putting' usually as a defense mechanism for self improvement avoidance. I assure you, the man you THOUGHT was intimidated by you was more than likely put off by you for the fallowing reasons:

Too masculine/overbearing. *See Leslie Jones
Narcissistic. The single mother of 3 who DEMANDS the A-List actor.
Materialistic. This usually manifests itself as a woman who brings nothing to the relationship but her meat sleeve and give or take 5 years of beauty and expects a man to provide her with everything she could possibly ask for.
Empowered narcissist. The female executive who thinks men give a shit about her job, her degree, and that she's SO empowered she forgot what being feminine is. Read "bitch," for no reason. This womans favorite quote is usually something along the lines of "I always get what I want!"

Now with that out of the way. A woman thats genuinely intimidating would have to be a fucking unicorn. Feminine, attractive, super intelligent, top of her field, not an ounce of arrogance, humble, kind, can defend herself, no tattoos, kids... like 'fuck this woman is perfect I might need to think about this for a second.

A fierce intelligence. I've met a good number of "hot bimbos", they all crumble to my masculine energy but intelligent women... Those are a tough nut to crack. They are so immersed in their subjects (chemistry, math, physics, etc...) and so work oriented that they do not notice the moves and subtle cues of attraction unless I am direct with them.

They make for AMAZING dates though, very talkative and you learn so much about the world from them. They are "intimidating" yes... but you can't write that without "dating" and they know their stuff.

There is literally one, and only one, aspect of females that "intimidates" guys-- being really, really hot/pretty/physically attractive. Basically, looking like this, or anything like it:

That's it. Guys are not intimidated by females unless it's for that reason. If she's not attractive to us, we are not intimidated. That is all. Any guy who tells you different is either 1) dumb or 2) lying to you.

If I'm interested in them but they don't seem approachable as if they don't want anyone in their space. But if I get turned down at a bar, I probably won't be hanging onto to it when I notice a cute girl that also happens to be in the produce section the next evening

Laughing!! Not intimidated, at all? WHY? Women are wonderful, sensual, loving people, and not at all like Wuzzles and Heffalumps, from the Hundred Acre Wood, with Whinnie the Pooh, and other childhood fantasies!!
How can anyone, that assumes to be a man, be intimidated by someone so elegant, so soft and gentle, wearing sensual, flowing clothes of myriad colors, and prints, and the smile, the way she brushes her long hair aside, to see her smile, and loving eyes?

One time I was having dinner with a female friend, and I recommended she try one of the cocktails (a spicy pepper one).

She screamed and shouted "What is in this drink?"

She meant it in a happy way, and was having fun with the spiciness, but I was frozen with the eyes on me. Thought I was about to get beaten up/arrested by some onlookers.

Nothing. They can make me feel disgusted like i want to puke. Usually that's what women call "intimidating". Like they say men are intimidated by a woman who likes gangbangs because we are afraid of other mens penises or something like that. No. Not intimidated. Grossed out and think that woman is mentally unstable.

[ThisIsMyOpinion]

Intimidation implies fear, so unless she has a gun or is a professional fighter I don't think I will find her intimidating.
This is not me dismissing women, I am sure unless a girl feels physicaly threaten by a guy she won't be intimidated by him either.

Nothing honestly! Women seem to think men are intimidated by them because they’re “fierce, independent” women, when in reality we’re not. A majority of the time women tend to think we as men leave because we can’t handle an independent female, when really it’s that we can’t stand her.

It has nothing to do with gender. Intimidating people are intimidating regardless. Some intimidating qualities that apply to both genders are: being calm when people expect you to be otherwise, smiling less than others, being to the point when you speak (using the least amount of words possible), knowing your worth and not settling for anything less, being more unavailable than available, etc.

None. You all keep asking this to make yourself feel bigger than you really are. I'm not intimidated by anyone. Problem is today's woman talks a lot of shit and has a huge ego then when someone complains they told "durrr you're just intimidated by a strong woman"...

bitch no one cares.

Intimidation isn't women's thing, but women can be repellent. Something like "I had over 200 guys in last five years" are moments where you are happy for using a condom and you want instantly go.
