Guys, What do guys think when checking out girls?

Question

What do guys think when checking girls out? Whenever I go out to public places, I get checked out by guys. Some of them look away but most of them keep on staring. The guys that keep staring at me make me uncomfortable. All the guys look at my face but sometimes I catch them looking at my body. I'm guessing that guys think dirty thoughts while staring at girls bodies, but what do guys think when they stare at a girl's face?

Guys are mentally undressing you - which they do to EVERY woman who is remotely attractive. It's no different than a lion looking at a herd of gazelles and imagining having one for dinner - it's pure instinct and we do it automatically and we do it dozens or hundreds of times per day. Normally, it takes a second or two, and then we move on with out day. If guys are taking a little more time looking at you, it just means they find you particularly physically attractive.

Maybe you're familiar with this scene from Terminator 2, where the Terminator cyborg, who is naked because only things fully contained within flesh can travel through the time machine, is scanning guys at this biker bar looking for clothes that will fit him. He literally takes 7 or 8 measurement "snapshots" and determines the guy is a match.

(Skip to 2:00 in - the relevant part of the scene is only 10 seconds long).

That's pretty much what guys do in their heads: they scan your body parts and build a mental image of your naked body in their brain, admire it, and in most cases, move right on with their day. If that mental image is REALLY attractive, then they might linger a little longer, but that's really what's happening.

And much like a Terminator, when it comes to men mentally undressing a woman, you cannot bargain with them, you cannot reason with them, and they absolutely WILL NOT STOP. Half a million years of evolution has made our drive to analyze and evaluate women's bodies so strong that we do this all day long without hardly even noticing that we're doing it in most cases. It's simply what it is to be a man.

They are thinking or already made up their minds that they would fuck you if they had a chance. So if they would fuck you because they find you attractive enough, then they are thinking if maybe you would be the type of girl they would want to date or just hook up with.

If they keep staring then that means they would definitely be interested in having sex and maybe more with you.

If they look away afterwards, that means they were just looking to look... as in admiring your body but had no serious intentions as far sex or dating or asking you out. Or it means they are nut less wonders and have no balls and got embarrassed that you caught them looking, or they are just shy.

But any guy you ever find that is willing to date you, as already took up the endeavor because they have decided that they would definitely want to have sex with you at some point. Guys randomly stare at women all the time with no intentions of approaching you they just like looking to look... but if look back and smile, well then they might actually approach you.

There is no thought involved. At least not at first. The look is an involuntary behavior. Males who don’t look for mates don’t mate. Therefore those kinds of males are bred out of existence. There are no bloodlines on earth known for passive males that wait for females to choose them.
If a woman’s behavior syncs up with his desire to mate, he may have a thought or two. But he’s not really THINKING. He’s reacting. This is why so many guys say nothing at all or we say something stoopid.
This is half of the reason that i never cold approach. In order to not look like a complete fool or a creep.

We are not ‘thinking’ when we are checking a girl out, we are simply having a naturally masculine physiological reaction to a sexually appealing female. There is little to no thought going on in those moments, which is why guys sometimes get caught by their SO looking at another girl - they aren’t thinking! Most guys are not ‘creeps’. We all look at women. It’s completely natural and it doesn’t usually mean anything at all. It’s just a part of the primal instinct for procreation hardwired into all males.

Well. For one not necessarily thinking naughty thoughts at all. I appreciate a female form and if there's a beautiful woman walking towards me I may well look her up and down and check out her ass when she has passed. Merely an appreciation of her beauty. Men by nature are attracted to the female body so don't be offended please. I don't continuously stare either just a glance, otherwise it is rude and creepy.
If I see a pretty girl in that circumstance I'll look her in the eyes and every time the girl/woman has smiled. Some have even looked me up and down too. It's kind of a 'you look beautiful' compliment without saying it. Can't ever remember thinking dirty thoughts in these scenario's. Just momentary attraction.

When we look at your face, we're getting tons of information like age, disposition, your impression of us (Yes. We get that, as insensitive or dense as you may think we are...) and we determine how attractive your face is contrasted with your body.

You're guessing right about us checking out your body. That's a given, and as creepy as you (18 -25 ; 30, even) may think it is, older cats like 45+ are still attracted to the visual of your physical body. Handle it, or not. Creepy to stare. Natural to find you hot. I look, and look away. No eye-contact =no chances.
(I don't agree with that. Just saying.)

They're waiting for you to do something to give them the green light to approach you. Smile, wave, look down then back at them, toss your hair, look over your shoulder, give them the bedroom eyes, bite your lip. Do something. But most women just stare blankly back at the guy or immediately look away.

Not everyone stares. Most don't have "dirty thoughts" in mind but still perform a quick evaluation - face, body (ass, boobs, belly, legs, complexion), physical fitness, hair, grooming. Its the way we're wired.

by the way - Girls do the same thing with guys.

itsmegrave · Answer

When looking at a girl, my mind behaves in two ways. If she wears a traditional dress, I like her with my heart and worship her, if she wears a revealing dress like that, my soul doesn't like her but my body likes her that too just to get a momentary pleasure.

If I'm checking her out, I'm thinking she's pretty, I'm thinking she's sexy, I'm thinking she's got great tits, I'm thinking she's got a great ass. I'm thinking she's beautiful

TroyDT · Answer

It could mean I think she's attractive. It could mean I think something about her is odd or out-of-proportion. It could mean that she looks like someone I know.

VaasMontenegro · Answer

Most of the time I just think: "She is probably a slut."  And don't cry about that guys are staring at you. Once you get older and more unattractive you will wish that guys would look at you again😂

"Pretty." And that's honestly the end of it.

How tight her pussy is, how good she sucks dick, if she knows how to fuck, what she looks like naked

Anonymous · Answer

I don’t get dirty thoughts if I check someone out now but now I will simply just think “that’s a good looking person” or, I will check someone out if they have something a larger than usual body part and then I’ll comment to my wife.

BLP11520 · Answer

It is not always dirty thoughts. You may be the best-looking lady a guy has seen all day. If you look perfect to him, he may just be thinking WOW!! Or wish I had a girlfriend/wife like her?

Andres77 · Answer

I wonder how she smells and tastes. That’s just where my mind goes.

If I'm having a bad day and a nice looking girl walks by it brings a smile to my face.

Usually the girl is wearing clothes specifically selected to get sexual attention from males. When we look, we are usually thinking of what she looks like while fucking.
