+1 ySexually? Yes, but that's simply because male visual circuitry is optimized for seeking opportunities to mate, whereas the effect is much less acute for females.
Aesthetically? That one totally depends on the culture.
Part of it is that the imagery (both literal and abstract) we associate with one gender or another biases us toward noticing the features emphasized in its respective imagery. Another part of it is that we commonly associate our value as a member of our own gender with how well we can emulate the ideals represented in its respective imagery, so therefore if one gender's imagery is more associated with aesthetics than that of another gender, it's only natural that the former as a whole is going to strive more toward aesthetics and consequently be more representative of aesthetics as a group. It's a bit of an illusion set up and sustained by a self-fulfilling prophecy.30 Reply

Women are 'seen' as more beautiful. Especially by men, ofcourse. But men have way more power than they could possibly imagine. The only problem is that 80% of men dont realize it and they unconciously give all that power up to women. And women get arrogant because of all the false power that they think they have (given by men).
Men are way more attractive than women. But they dont realize that power because no one thinks about it or know how its like from the other side.
Think of it this way. What does a man have to do to look good as hell? He just wakes up, wash face, and wear good cloths. And if he has long hair then just fix it a bit. Thats literally it. And just needs to remember to trim/fix facial hair every 2-3 weeks or so. Now think... what does a lady have to do to look good as hell?
A man is more attractive by nature.30 Reply
Honestly I sympathize with men more just because the girls I'm surrounded with are all full of insecurities and whatnot and everyone tears down each others throat. So it's no wonder guys would rather be single than in a relationship. Also, side note it seems like I've been having a lot more guy friends than girl friends.

Yeah see there's not a lot of faithful girls who would stay with a guy and a lot of girls around my age and whatnot are hormonal as fuck especially when they see a hot guy in the room and their basically drooling and being thirsty as fuck. And it's funny how a lot of the girls at my workplace were all in a relationship before they came to work and then all of a sudden they see a hot guy and oh their single now. Like seriously how fucking obvious is that?

@lenlenxyz Did you post that answer to this question by mistake? Seems unrelated lol
Heterosexual men and homosexual women will say yes, and heterosexual women and homosexual men will say no. So, what exactly is the point of asking such a question?

+1 yId agree with the studies that women are inversely proportionately attractive in relation to men. Men reach their prime in their 50s and women in their late teens early 20s for attractiveness. You can google this and there are several youtube vids on it. Most about women being pissed about the studies. Although after reading studies explains some of why older men go for younger women. What i find ironic is the multiple articles I've read saying thats wrong, but roles reversed its “you go girl”. Smh.

Men do not reach their prime in their 50s. Women peak somewhere between 16-25 and men between 25-35 generally. Although men can hold on longer than women because we have more robust bodies and skin.
But honestly MOST people peak at like 20 because they get fat and eat like shit. - +1 y
@glutendan just citing the studies. I think it also has to do with men being seen as success objects and women as sex objects.
+1 yBeing a straight male, I would obviously be inclined to say yes. However, I believe it's also objectively true that women are the fairer sex. I remember a study done by a dating site which found that when asked to rate each other's looks, guys gave girls higher scores on average than girls gave guys.

+1 yObjectively, orientations aside? I’d still say it’s the ladies. They generally put more effort into their appearance, and maybe I’m just scarred from a lifetime of lining up behind the hairy, sweaty asscracks of fat defensive linemen, but I’d say the average scarcity of body hair vs that of men alone gives women a competitive advantage lmao.

+1 yI'm a heteromale and its that's a definite Hell to the Yesss!
I love admiring the curves of woman. The arch in her neck. The way she walks and even the tone of her voice.
And most times its without sexual feelings. Just pure admiration and gratitude in Gods creation lol. I lol because it sounds corny but tis true.
I'm also 45 so my hormones are pretty much in check😎💯30 ReplyWomen are more attractive to me being that I’m not attracted to men. It’s kind of an easy win… I’d assume the opposite would be true for straight women.
