Guys, Why do guys like girls who look innocent/have an innocent face even if they are or not?

[Miassjis]

I’ve been told by multiple guys that one of the reasons they are attracted or turned on by me is because I look innocent/sweet.

[CaptainOverthink]

It's not something we have reasons for, it's a preferrence we have inherented since ancient times.

Evolutionary.. it because..
The men who where attracted to youthful and innocent traits had a better probability of having babies that survived and passed their genes forward and replicate the process.
Meanwhile those who where more attracted to older and rougher didn't, probably because, among other reasons, the older they where the worse fertility and much higher chance of death. Remember, for the most part of our ~3 million years of humanity's existance you only lived to about age 30. And if you didn't have a kid early chances are the kid might be a parent or two short in the early stages, which obviously affected chances of survival greatly.

With this perspective in mind it's not strange at all that what we're left with are preferenser for softer and more innocent traits.

I realize this awnser might not be what you where looking for as you seem to have a more personal situation at hand but without knowing the guy.. this is the best explaination.

Cute and innocent kind of go together. They look youthful.
Cute is physical appearance and innocent is mannerisms. Innocent mannerisms are feminine and alluring. It can look demure or playful.

I don't care about virginity at all. Some guys are all about it. Some of those guys suffer from Madonna/whore complex, but some fantasize about their little virgin turning into their very own porn star.

Personally, I always preferred cute - short, fit and flexible, but soft, with cute, sexy legs, and proportions similar to the classic 34", 22", 34". Soft, not sharp, facial features.

Innocent in the way she tilts her head up to gaze searchingly into my eyes, likes to hold hands and snuggle. She wants a man who makes her feel safe and secure. She's honest and sincere, tender and vulnerable, but she's also a courageous little bad ass who can stand toe to toe with a man and stick up for herself.

She's sexually knowledgeable, comfortable with her body and knows what it's for. She loves being female and loves sex.

So, even though I like cute and innocent appearance and mannerisms, I prefer that she isn't sexually innocent. I'll take orgasmic with a strong libido. I do, however, like women who are honest, loyal, monogamous, have self-regard, and healthy values.

Subversion of expectations

[MrOracle]

Both men and women have very strong, instinctual reproductive strategies that were vital to the survival of the species for thousands of years. Women chose men who were physically big and strong who could protect and provide. Men chose women (and we are specifically talking about serious relationships/marriage) who were:

Young (innocent, pure, and fertile)
Fit
Feminine
Friendly
Family-oriented (as opposed to career-oriented)
Cooperative
Submissive
Peaceful

Youth (and innocence) is at the top of this list for a reason. It cannot be overstated how much men value youth and innocence WHEN they are looking for a serious relationship - and you MUST keep casual situations separate from this.

One of the reasons for this (and there are many) is because it has been proven that the woman's youth and innocence is a big factor in the long-term success of the relationship. When a girl has had so many first experiences with her husband, she is far closer to him than she is if she had dated around and done everything first with a bunch of different men before her husband.

There is also the issue of paternity - men wanted virgin, innocent women so they could be assured that the children they were investing time and resources in were their own children - in many other mammal species, when a new male takes over a family, he kills the existing young so that all future children are his own. That's how deeply males care about paternity.

Cute, innocent is a big attraction because you see her as pure. Someone who has never really experienced things. Not that you want to manipulate her but you want to be the first in a lot of things when it comes to her. Not just sexually either. I mean sure if she’s pure then she changes into a little freak in the sheets because of her experiences w you that’s wonderful. But like I said I don’t just mean sexually. I want to be a girl’s first in taking her places, like to Hawaii, or Italy, etc. it’s not the same if she’s already been there, especially w an ex. You want to show her that you’re willing to give her the world. So women who say men just want younger women cause they can manipulate them easier, not always the case. Yes some men may do that but a lot of times for one it’s purity, if she’s still a virgin, fertility, but also being able to show her a lot of things, do a lot of things for her w out all that animosity toward men that older women tend to have. It makes you happy as a man to make her happy by doing a lot of first w her in her life.

Why do guys like girls who look innocents? you are perhaps trying to say why do guys use girls whose face looks innocent! First, Guys have different taste, some Like attractive women for happy social life, some lean to ugly women for happy sexual life. because, let's agree ugly women and men are good when it comes to sex, attractive women and men are good in appearance when it comes to social life, and they are a center of attention. but why using a girl who has an innocent face? it is easy because men are dominants. attractive women like to control thing because they are confident which is is so bad for men as they like to control things as well, so men escape and look for that naïve innocents girl even ugly girls are a problem because they can arouse men sexually, but they can't make men happy in a relationship due to their ugly looks like thunderstorm. using a girl with an innocent face is like unleashing your evil powers that you can't hold for too long. that sexual desire, that behavior like an animal your true nature! if you say an order, that innocents girl would just carry the order without arguing or demanding an explanation. so, to me, A girl whose face looks innocents will be used by men, and not loved.

Because we are very visual when we see a beautiful girl , and she has the innocent look or face we already pictured what she would look like when we fuck her , Most men like to be dominate to a girl and they want a girl that will be submissive to him , When a guy feels his girl is submissive to him and she is loyal and respectful to him and only has eyes for him , he will cherish a girl like that , when a girl doesn’t look so innocent he has a hard time trusting her and thinking she will cheat on him and think she is probability a whore, He might duck her but he won’t comity to her

[mattclark242]

maybe I don't know I have to see a pic. I like sweet girl but maybe I want look affter them and make sure they are ok. Maybe I think I am too mean and mess up to be with anyone nice and know one would like who I am right now I just a butthole. I kind want stay way from all people and just work.

If a girl to nice I feel like I mess up by being with her. I would want her to be with someone more nicer than me.

Translation: youthful and sexy
Which forever will be a top factor in attraction subconsciously because youthful sexy appearance is directly tied to child bearing.


Full lips, hip to waist ratio, glowing skin, full lush hair, high voice.


Show me a woman/girl who is attractive that doesn't have these traits, they're nonexistent.

[serious]

Well, it is true that there are people who are innocent, have innocent face and are very sweet also.

Of course guys like girls who are innocent, sweet, nice, kind and caring.

Yes about those who fake like that then I cannot say.

[Berethor]

Moe trope, if she not truly innocent then it the fake cutie trope, guys like youth and virginity.

[PointTaken]

Maybe that's what they like. Everyone has different qualities they like. The guys that tell you that like that quality and maybe they're wishing that you look innocent but maybe you're not that innocent.
