I agree. It's much too sweeping a statement to be true. I think men cultivate the image though, not just women.
I agree.
I find it extremely ironic that the same feminist man hating pinks on here that are accusing “men only want sex” are the same ones that spew the most sexual content on here and by far the biggest perverts. Look, the one’s that say this don’t even qualify as decent-human themselves and are by far the biggest damn hypocrites in existence so you should pay no mind to a damn thing they say. The hypocrite feminist man haters have the social skills of a two yo so just treat them that way.
Men do not only want sex but it is a large share interest in why men get with women. The main motive for men is sex when it comes to being with women. Hence, why so many men these days move on when you do every other girlfriend activity with them other than drop your panties within 3 months of knowing them.
Disagree guys usely that are goid want a relationship first some 1 they can share moments with an time together it fills a part of. Each guys an girls if you look at the, norm most people rather be in a goid relationship even if it. doesn't have much sex ever than in 1 just about sex
Naaa. I agree. The only difference is whether or not the guy deludes himself into thinking it's not about sex. Which a lot of guys do, because they know that women are skittish about sex; and, they learn early on, usually, that the only way they're getting laid is if they pretend that that's not the main thing they're looking for.
That said, men and women want the same things. We just have different priorities. It's just nature. Women want comfort and security; men want sex most. But, men still enjoy comfort and connection and all that bullshit; and, women still enjoy sex. Reversed priorities.
yeah but you aren´t straight, so you are a bit closer to girls point of view. I don´t say ALL straight men only want sex, mabe 80% only want sex, but sure 100% want sex and if they talk to a girl 99% that is to try to fuck her
I agree with the being closer to a woman's point of view, but I genuinely believe that there are more men that want relationships out there.
yeah totally
Wanting sex and other things aren't mutually exclusive, I'd say most guys want sex and relationships. It should be obvious that they correlate quite a bit.
@AllThatSweetJazz maybe with 27 yo, being 21 ask any boy from my age and they will tell you they just care about hook ups
I didn't want just hookups at 21. In my experience most guys don't just want hookups. And I don't really see guys changing their mind with time. All my friends basically want the same things they've always wanted. Most guys will probably say yes to a hookup if the opportunity presented but that not the same as only wanting hookups.
Yes and just as many women want the same exact things. The difference is that they tend to be less vocal and more insecure to voice their sexual side. Sadly 😞.
Well even for guys who want just sex. Some can be callous, but I think women can mistake and think guys don't care if they hurt the women they have sex with or all are just conceited jerks. There can be so many layers to why a man does things, and doesn't want a woman to feel used, but feels he's in a catch 22 in his life.
Well most of time these types of comments are made with huge generalization, which is a common mistake made regardless of gender. I do agree that it is dehumanizing a bit, because somehow this notion goes hand in hand of the other unfair social perspective on men.
I do think that generalizations play a role in the misinterpretations.
If your need for sex is greater than your need for a relationship then yes, that’s really the only thing you want (unless you are capable of having a sexless partnership)—applies to both men and women.
It's a terrible narrative and ridiculous double standard - women want sex as much if not more. And by the way - neither gender should be shamed for wanting sex. Of course you want sex! You're a fucking human being! Aside from our survival instinct (need for food, shelter, etc.), your sex drive is the most powerful biological force you experience.
And you're right - particularly for the guys who are very relationship oriented which is MOST. MOST men want families.
the amount of guys I see that only care about sex is pretty ridiculous obviously it's not all men and people know this but I'd say it is the majority. Obviously I don't know every guy but I see it a lot and you can't deny that you don't see it either which is why this stereotype exists.
Guys that just want relationships exist I mean I'm one of them but women are constantly objectified by guys just wanting to use them which is again why this stereotype exists because of the mass of experiences.
All men want relationships but won’t reject a hot girl for sex. That’s different than ONLY wanting sex from women. People just confuse these two.
I'm just saying it's ridiculous when men constantly message women and straight away make things sexual that's more so my point. I've seen it a lot and when I say a lot I mean a lot. Also not all men want relationships I don't know if you actually meant "All" but thought I'd point that out. I see your point but there are guys out there or even women that only want sex
I know but human beings have a natural need for intimacy. So that would mean that all people really do want someone to love them, but sometimes they don’t know how to express it.
Also they usually make their approach sexual because that’s how they’re expected to behave these days.
And... let’s face it, women also look for hookups. Most college girls are
(When I say all people I mean all people who are capable of empathy)
The real problem is pornography, I constantly see women being objectified, constantly getting sent dick pics like they are just some toy and that's why I have less sympathy for guys nowadays despite being one myself. We do have a natural need for intimacy but that doesn't mean common respect should be thrown out the window and yes women do it too but if we do look at it then it's most common in men... I don't have an actual statistic to back that up but from what I've seen it does seem to be that way. Just with the way this world is now it's like everything revolves around sex.. not for everyone but some treat it as the most important thing, I even had one guy here who said if there is no sex then there is no point for a relationship 😂 that's one of many.
It’s weird but you’re a guy so you see guys behave this way more often. I don’t. Seriously. I see this more in women. I get along with both guys and girls and the guys keep telling me that this girl was randomly grabbing his dick (oh wait that was MY EX). But the fact is that he told me about it and that is harassment. But people don’t take it seriously and ignore it and females downright deny it ever happened so that’s why you don’t hear of females doing this as often
And many other instances where the girl randomly sends nudes or asks for a dick pic but they don’t TELL their friends or anyone. The only one who knows about this is the recipient
Hey it goes both ways dude. Thinking women only want money is dehumanizing women.
I love how men are the ones who make up these stereotypes and then complain about the stereotype
@navyrobin ikrr?
Think "Dear Future Husband" and "Santa Baby." As long as songs are made of it, some guys will see us as gold diggers. I offer endless love. I'm sorry I'm incapable of sex.
@DakotaNorth Women want money. It's been proven that women have stronger orgasms the richer a man is [Dr Thomas Pollet and Prof Daniel Nettles, of Newcastle University]. More, most often, when a woman commits homicide, it has a financial motive. Getting insurance money and such.
Chicks want money about as much as dudes want sex.
I mean. Both statements have elements of truth. People just tend to vary in how much that influences them. Women don't "only" want men for money, generally. And men don't "only" want women for sex, generally. But there is still truth to it.
Dudes wanna bang; and, women want a man who has power.
A good amount of women are gold diggers; and, a good amount of men are players. One way or another, money is a sexual characteristic to women; and dudes like pussy.
@ChurchOfIron of course, we want a guy that earns money. The real question is, how much? Cause for me, as long as he can afford a family I'm good, and I seriously believe that you don't need a lot of money for that. In other ways, you need a lot less money for that than how much we think we need because people these days spend so carelessly. I definitely want a man who spends his money wisely.
In other words**
@CubsterShura Right. Reasonable. And most guys want reasonable amounts of sex, as well, and are satisfied with that. My point was in regards to whatserface saying "as long as movies and songs claim women are gold diggers, they'll think that about us women."
I was saying it stems from very real things, not just songs. Money being a sexual characteristic to women--and some women being gold diggers--is what convinces men that women want money. Because some women only want a guy's bank account numbers. Just like some men only want a woman's pussy.
My point was just that it's based on real shit. But also that, yeah, most people are reasonable with their expectations.
Oh so is that why women lie about hating when men only want sex? Thanks for the reveal lol IDIOT 🤡
Most women are clueless about what men want. You can see 1000's of examples of that on this site especially from females under the age of 25. They just assume most guys just want sex and like most assumptions it is often totally wrong.
Hit the nail on the head
Thanks as I do miss a platonic relationship with a women or wemen! I think most people need love and the ones that don't are a kinda: in denial an hurt, or something; I think!
we do want to be emotionally involved. to love, and care. yet we are very sexual in nature. one is not mutually exclusive to the other. if our partner shows little interest in sex this is usually a major letdown.
You do know that mostly men are the ones who say this right? 😆
I mean you're essentially right but..
Since when do women care about the dehuminization or suffering of men? Not like that is going to change anytime soon.
Most guys only care about looks.. Personality is irrelevant about them
When they say they want a woman with a nice personality, they mean that they want someone who doesn't challenge their authority
I'll take "loads of horseshit for $1200 Alex"
@Partywithtom Women who respect themselves aren't gold-diggers..
How did you know my ex's name though? That's an evil coincidence
As if women don't care about superficial shit like height. Personality is irrelevant to a lot of women if the guy is 6ft 3.
@Lord_Thy_Gawd a lot of tall guys are ugly. Face>height
That depends on the woman. To some women, a lot actually, height > face. Anyway this argument is irrelevant because ugliness in the face or anything else is also judging by looks.
Lol at all guys here who downvoted this
Well you *are* projecting a stereotype that isn't true. Or at least isn't true exclusively to men.
@Lord_Thy_Gawd just look at most answers in this site and you'll see it's true. Lookism and ageism (especially for women over 25)
Look at how many women are okay with dating a guy shorter than 5'8".(hint, not many)
What's the difference?
@Opinion owner exactly.
Somehow true. But those men who look for a nice and confident personality never get tired of falling in love with her. Looks, sex, and physical attraction do not last long, but an attractive personality takes miles dosntamce
correct, I agree fully
Personality is irrelevant? I don't care how beautiful you, if your personality isn't compatible with mine it's not gonna work. This might be a more outrageous stereotype than the one OP even talked about.
Are looks important? Yes! I'm not gonna say they aren't. Athletic build is great, but having an intelligent or deep conversation, being extraverted, and being in control of your emotions are way more important to me.
@hype105 yes so you're asking for the moon. She only has to look like Adriana Lima, be as intelligent as Stephen Hawkins, be a party animals, have lots of friends. Anything else? 😂
Lol at all the hypocrites who thumbed down this!
@hype105 I can understand if you don’t wanna date a hot girl who is bitchy. But would you date an unattractive chubby girl who has an amazing personality? That’s how you test how shallow you are.
@Partywithtom
Epic response! You made my day. 😂
Okay... can I also call this bullshit? First, your generalizing which just pisses me off all on its own. Second, you'd be surprised how many men get just used for sex and feel shitty about it because they want something more. When men love, they love hard, they usually say what they mean and were the ones who overanalyze everything. I get frustrated when men generalize women as only out for their money. What bothers me is when someone posts something saying we're not all about this and someone just sits there and says yes you are, it's pretty crappy. Just something to consider hun.
Funny. Women usually talks about the expensive things they want. So that means all the standards for men are irrelevant too?
And FYI, there are women who gets turned off if their boyfriends don't want sex. I think your using the word hypocrite the wrong way but I sense irony. We only care about looks at first because it gives us the first impression but if we know how bitchy she is, that's a turn off. You just don't know how to differentiate what having a crush and falling in love means. We don't fall in love with looks but rather have a crush on.
Lots of girls say dick size matters and breaks up with their boyfriends just because they have small size yet they say "guys only want sex" "they only care about look"
I thumbs up this opinion, i agree it's true and freely admit it,
@malegender Under your circumstances
Thank you for sharing this.
obviously men want more than just sex but just sex is sometimes all they can get so yeah. lack of choices.
It annoys me thar girls think this because I'm not like that
Girls don’t think this. Guys do
I think most good guys do want a relationship but it's girls who Beleive he won't stay if they dont give sex right away then they set them selfs up for heart break an excellent post
