Mostly what u said it's true. I am skinny for my 38yrs n yet women don't get attracted. When I like sm1 she always goes for others. N i don't hv car. This too is a big problem
I think people just need to calm their shit. Everyone gets mad about everything people do. Just move on
I think it's unfair that one (type of) person would criticize another and not hold themselves accountable for their own criticism. That's called hypocrisy. But life hasn't been fair for a long time.
That's actually a really good point
It is unfair. We apparently can't have preferences but guys can?
No one is arguing that. The argument (which the asker agrees with, but still chooses to perform mental gymnastics to justify everything) is that it's naturally more difficult to meet female preferences as opposed to male preferences.
(this is purely generalities as everyone is different but for the sake of argument...)
Women not only want men that are taller than her, but often times want a specific threshold of height (let's say 6 feet tall) that guys have no control over. At worst, men might want a girl that is just shorter than him but most don't care, really.
Women tend to have an expectancy of salary from a man. Whether it be more than them or double/triple them or whatever. Some women obviously want true wealth. Men will date women that don't even have a job or are actively looking to be a housewife.
Women often expect a man to maintain a muscular physique. Men mostly just want a girl to not be obese.
The difficulty levels in achieving these preferences is what is questioned
"it's naturally more difficult to meet female preferences as opposed to male preferences."
lol You must not know how to read very well.
@HorrorFan I disagree. Often men want women who are x weight, x boobs, x ass, x facial features, x hair. Manipulating your body to a specific exact man's needs isn't possible like that. I'm not saying I even want a guy x tall with x money. But I am saying, it's ok if certain women want that. Guys say all day "preference, preference" women have those too...
@Asker Would you like to have a contest in reading comprehension? You might have to stop hiding behind your little shitposting troll anonymity, then.
You would also have to take a break from being a passive aggressive little crybaby.
@vishna Both genders have laundry lists of preferences. However, often times, things like height and salaries are straight deal breakers for women. Many will straight up not date a shorter man. Or date a man that makes too little or less than them. Those guys straight up do not exist to them.
Everyone is free to want who they want. If a guy is THAT picky and expects perfection he deserves to be ridiculed just like the women that want Prince Charming.
My argument would be that instead of people complaining about ridicule, they understand that people expecting near perfection from a partner are being a bit silly and ridicule is a natural social reaction.
@HorrorFan I definitely agree on that bit, everyone should at least expect most people to think it's silly.
Men tend to be taller and stronger than women, so it would be kind of limiting if a man wants a taller woman, for instance. I'm around 6 ft tall, so if I were to look for a taller woman that would kind of limit my possibilities.
This is just basic stereotyping all men and women and these was the views up till the late 70's but times change and so do people
It's a miracle men and women ever get together in the first place.
I don't think so, as we clearly like what the other has to offer..
but both sexes are ineffective at communicating it.
What makes you think women are being ridiculed for having these preferences?
You must be new to GAG...
Yes, please forgive me. :)
Well, i'm NOT new to GAG or the internet in general so... citation please.
www.girlsaskguys.com/.../q2314799-where-are-the-good-women-are-there-any-good-women-left
It was just asked today.
I can only speak for myself, but I definitely prefer being the breadwinner in the relationship so I'm fine with it if she expects me to earn more than her.
I'm not sure this is at all accurate from a man's perspective.
it´s not unfair cause men are also ridiculed for their preferences in women xD
no more than men are ridiculed for. most men would even agree that some of their preferences are shallow
aside from the money, those are all my ideals for a woman tbh. i think if women focus on money then they should be ridiculed. if its for those other things, then its a matter of sexual preference
yes true but if its not meant to be then its not meant to be
If this were true there would be stop height shaming campaigns and not stop fat shaming which are always directed to help fat women.
Tall women aren't shamed, they become models. But... not because men prefer taller women than themselves.
I'm talking about short men.
There aren't any type of campaigns for men... probably because men don't spend as much time caring about their beauty and their looks.
They do care about their appearance. Guys rage all the time on the internet about being undatable because they're short.
There's no campaigns because no one gives a shit about them like they do with women.
No, it's because beauty has always been more of a woman thing. There have always been more magazines on women's beauty, while almost none on men and their looks... even when fat acceptance didn't exist.
I agree with the opinion owner on this one. It amazes me that some fatty slob will reject a short man who is otherwise amazing because she thinks that she "deserves" better.
All she's doing is shooting herself in the foot at the end of the day.
That's why a lot of us ridicule women - because they see things "in the now" and not in the future.
And because I know someone's going to say that I am an angry short guy - I'm actually 6'3" and fit + college educated. And it amazes me how poorly guys who have other physical traits are treated.
A better question
*Do you think it's unfair that people are ridiculed for their preferences in a partner?
I like tall women who earn at least as much as I do and are dominant.
Taller than you?
Either way, there's always exceptions.
no, not necessarily taller than me, just tall.
I feel like men get criticized plenty for being shallow
Why would you think guys PREFER a girl to be broke ass, over having and/or making money?
No, definitely not broke ass, just less money than him. I think I made it clear by putting "more money/less money.
Even that is odd. More money is better, no? Or at the very least, no worse.
Which is exactly why I put that men may make an exception if it means they get to live a better life, and why some men on here are okay with the woman making more money. However, if you take those things out of the equation, most men would want to make more than women..
half of those are true for me the other half are not for me
Women's preferences are their preferences, they can choose whatever they want in a partner. I'm not the one who gives birth and bleeds, so I don't care.
Everyone has preferences but having a society set standards of what a girl or guy can look like is stupid
MEN are the ones being ridiculed for their preferences in women, not the other way around.. you're not even living the same world.
I don't care if she's taller, makes more money or is dominant. It would be really hard to find one stronger though. I don't prefer them but it won't matter if I like her.
women deserve to be ridiculed for everything.
it keeps them in line, otherwise, they'd been weapons of mass destruction.
I hope you're joking 🙃

Ummmm
voted no but immediately regretted it and want to vote for yes now -_-
I guess in a way but what you said does make sense though
That's because women's preferences are beyond men's control. Men's preferences for women can be fixed and controlled.
what the neck does that mean?
@ImACowgirl women's preferences are height, above average dick size, high social status, wealth, and assertive personality which is out of control or hard to obtain. Men's preferences are more about looks but looks can be changed especially weight and looks are subjective.
ok not all women think like that and tell me how height and d size is any different than looks? it is part of looks. you're not gonna tell me you don't have a preference of huge boobs or a big ass. On top of that most of you guys prefer short women. especially you talker dudes.
most of both genders seems to be more about physical stuff than they are about the real stuff that matters. But more men are about sex than women. Like that's their main priority.
@ImACowgirl I have preference but I won't reject a girl because she's not what I prefer unless I'm just simply not attracted to her. It's a bigger issue for men because women are much more picky so guys who are on the lesser side of average and below will struggle.
That's not true. You should read the opinions in my questions. It depends on if the individual is shallow or not. Its good to be picky but not good to be unrealistically picky. Most of both genders have certain things about them that are ridiculous and cause this type of division between men and women because they are socially conditioned. Women go by women stereotypes and men go by men stereotypes.
if men and women can't get along when were meant to then I guess everyone should be gay since both sides think they're correct in their behaviour and mindset
@ImACowgirl yes and a lot of women are unrealistically picky. Guys can't afford to be picky like that even we wanted to, unless we have a lot of money or really good looking. So guys get frustrated and it creates tension.
I disagree. Anyone can be very picky, it has nothing to do with their gender. Its the individuals choices and preferences that will determine if they're a picky person or not. Maybe you're not but there's a good amount of men that are. If they weren't I'd be in a relationship right now.
@ImACowgirl you're wrong so just be quiet. Women are more picky than men by far without doing anything to deserve being so picky. So women are in the wrong here, either admit men are superior so thats why more is expected from us, or lower your standards and date a guy on your own level.
lol hush. I'm only picky about the things that actually matter, which would make a good relationship. Calm down. I think you're coming out of the closet.
@ImACowgirl Yes anyone can be picky but women especially are a lot more picky. Guys are the ones who are expected to approach and impress you to give us a chance. We get rejected by almost every woman we ask out. We have lower yet more realistic standards than woman. Plus most women just want the same guy. Tall, dark, handsome, 6ft+, muscles, money, powerful. Those guys can get any woman they want. Take an average guy like me and I have to put in maximum effort just to get looked at.
no we don't and maybe because you're not attractive? maybe that's why you feel that way. What's your ideal woman look like? and then you say don't be fat. You do realise women tend to get fat as they get older and when they have babies so saying that is unrealistic and picky at a level that is ridiculous.
@ImACowgirl I'm not that good looking but I'm not ugly. I'm just average like I said. Yes men tend to be more strict on looks I get it but I don't see women drooling over fat men either so what's the point? Being fat is a deal beaker in both genders. Except men can make up for it by having a bunch of money of course.
there you go. quit going after women out of your league. Have you not seen good-looking women with no so good-looking men? so tell me how there more picky.
@ImACowgirl Both genders go for people out of their league but guys are more accepting of someone "below their league" girls who date guys "below their league" do it because the guy makes up for it with materialistic possessions. Ever heard women date "up" and men date "down"? That should prove who really is more picky.
Not true. Most women don't care about money. explain how these bums and thugs get so many women? they don't have jobs and as immature and ugly. Like I said its the individual, it has nothing to do with your gender.
If you wanna say all women will only date ugly men because f money then that means all men will only date ugly women for sex.
@ImACowgirl The women they get are very trashy and usually like thugs/bums but most women don't unless he's really really good looking they might hook up with him. Google hypergamy if you don't believe me.
@ImACowgirl stfu, i dont care about you personally because you can claim anything here on the internet without being able to prove it. Most women have unrealistic standards when compared to what they themselves can offer in return. And most men would be fine with that if we didn't try to pretend the sexes where equal, which we are not. And stating that fact doesn't make me gay, i still sleep with plenty of women. Enjoy being a lonely cat lady in the near future unless you change your attitude.
@ImACowgirl at least an ugly guy compensates with money for his looks, what does an ugly woman do to compensate her ugly looks? when people have sex that is something both genders give each other so it cancels out.
@alphadoggystyle Ain't nooobody talking to you so mind your business. You act as if I was having a conversation with you. You sound very unattractive so I'm glad you will be a "lonely cat lady"? Wtf? Now you're a woman? foh. Grow up and get over yourself.
you can't say they're trashy women. You put all women into one category so don't try to put those types of women in another.
@ImACowgirl I can say they're trashy because I've physically seen them before. I've seen their look and behavior.
you said all women are the same. now you're saying some are trashy. which is it? You don't like women but you wanna talk about certain women like they're lower than most women to you?
@ImACowgirl I said most of them are. They're the same when it comes to the type of man they want but some are trashy and some aren't. I never said I don't like women, I just don't like how ridiculously high their standards are.
their standards aren't that high. maybe you are just of low standards and well of course most women don't want a man of low standards.
@ImACowgirl I don't have low standards I have reasonable standards.
sure. that's why women don't want you.
@ImACowgirl You don't even know what my standards are.
you told me
@ImACowgirl What we're they? Since I don't remember.
you said reasonable which sounds closer to low than high.
@ImACowgirl Not even close. Reasonable means respectable. If I had low standards I would've said it was low.
then why don't women want you?
@ImACowgirl I wish I knew.
well it's probably you cuz I don't know a decent woman that wouldn't want a decent guy.
@ImACowgirl I just don't fit their really high standards probably.
We'll probably because you're messing with the wrong women.
@alphadoggystyle "too"? Fix your English before you talk to me. You wouldn't know attractive if it were in front of you. I don't see how I have a bad attitude just because I disagree with someone saying women's expectations are too high.
But I can't understand half of what you type. Just calm down. You're making a fool out of yourself.
@ImACowgirl well I guess there's a lot of them.
You're not ridiculed. We are.
Everyone is ridiculed both male and female.
Both genders are shamed for their preferences.
yeah but everything you wrote is ridiculous
I agree with you 100%
never looked at it that way to be honest
Everyone has the right to their preference
Stereotypical.
No..
That's generalising
