Honestly, who doesn’t want a guy who’s willing to stand up for them? In my experience most men have that urge to protect women, even gay guys, I always get surprised by how protective guys who are my mates are. But they just don’t all want to punch someone out to do that. And honestly I really don’t like that either.
You sound like a good guy just trying to do what’s best, but to me it feels like gorillas running around beating their chests and facing off with each other. It feels more like defending your pride, rather than her honour. Sorry!
Guys with muscles do absolutely nothing for me, I mean kudos to them for all that work they’ve put in, it’s impressive, but…nah!
What I love is a clever guy, smart men that are quick and witty, thoughtful and kind, who have a twinkle in their eye and make me laugh. A happy guy who smiles a lot and someone I can talk about anything and everything with. And I honestly would rather have a man who can tease me and doesn’t constantly flatter me. A man who keeps me on my toes, in a fun way.
As my guy friend jokes I like them “.. tall, dark and lanky…”.

ehhhhhhhhhhh fights are stressful and dangerous ESPECIALLY when you're up close
i want him to stand up for me or him but he doesn't gotta go all macho and fight when there's no need. if he's mature, said his piece, and walks away then im more into him
The world has changed since it was fists at dawn, even when it was acceptable to hit someone, it was only as a last resort when talking had failed or if it was severe enough to warrant it.
I do not know anyone who would resort to being happy to knock someone out, society has zero place for that type, same as the other scum.
Yes you can protect a girl, be defensive but to jump straight to violence is a bit pathetic, also that violence is often not far away from being turned on the girl if his dinner is not ready etc.
The other reality is a 46 yr old guy trying to knock someone out these days, is going to be bleeding out from multiple stab wounds, as it’s often knives that are used more than fists.
I've managed to get into all sorts of shit without having to resort to the ‘I’m going to knock you out’ , life is not binary.
They think if a man is strong enough to protect a woman he is also more dangerous than bears and therefore a threat to her 🤷🏻♂️

Ah, the timeless allure of the protector! It's quite the love potion in many romantic tales. There's something magnetic about a person who radiates the vibe of being able to guard and protect the ones they cherish. It's not just macho; it's about feeling safe and valued. But remember, the knight in shining armor comes in many forms nowadays. Some wield emotional intelligence instead of swords, offering protection through understanding, emotional support, and respect. Why do some fall for those who don't offer protection? Well, attraction is a complex potion brewed with bits of mystery, personal history, emotional needs, and sometimes, a dash of wanting what we think we can't have. Everyone's love story is as unique as their fingerprint. But no matter the type, the core ingredients of respect and mutual care are timeless classics!

Yes I prefer that and I’ve only dated one or two guys who were either afraid to do that or simply couldnt fight. Thank goodness i could. However it feels good to have someone again who can throw hands. I actually have to talk him down from it cause he's always trying to scrap. he's rowdy but me likey
No. People like you disgust me. The rest of civilisation can navigate life without knocking people out yet your type is always looking for an opportunity to prove what a big man you are. No one's impressed at you for punching a guy because you disapproved at the way he looked at your girl or his comment.
If only men could read the room and act only if it is really needed, I would probably enjoy it... unfortunately, they mostly do it to show how manly they are, which leads to more unsolved problems than solved.
so, living in reality, I definitely don't want such a man... I have such a best friend, and I'm fed up already...you can't love the same a man that gets shot for getting impulsive and stupid instead of being smart, so he dies...
depends on the contextProtect? Yes that would be nice. Knock out? Not my thing, no.
LOL I mean I wouldn’t encourage violence, but I do love a man who’s protective over me ☺️🥰 it’s very attractive, hot, and warm feeling~
if it's an emergency situation then i'd be glad i have a strong SO but in general i do not like quarrels it gives me heart attack
Yes but knocking people out sounds like he lacks self control and will end up behind bars. Protect me yes but if u have to put your hands on everyone that's a problem.
Yes, but not very problematic, it's just indicates Moments por situations
No. That’s not a trait I look for
