In fact, the moment a man shows a weakness or a vulnerability ie. crying, he gets scorned and get labeled crybaby or whiner by women. I see women in general as being very intolerant toward men's expressions of weakness, they expect men to show positive feelings all the time (like the one you mentioned, loving animals..etc but never weakness).

In my experience, every time I talk about some insecurity to a woman (whether female friend or FWB or whatever) I get dismissed by it and she would be like "be confident" , "it's in your head"..etc. Always very dismissive. Every time I regret opening my mouth about it.

Most of you want the typical manly men showing no weakness and no insecurity, stop lying to yourselves....

Maybe you're trying to justify some sour experiences you've had, but let me explain one thing...

Being soft and affectionate is cool, but you have to find the right place and time. If you start your introduction by showing your feminine side, you're going to weird people out. Similarly, if you remain cool and distant with a girl you like, you're not going to build a solid relationship that way. I and my girlfriend are affectionate with each other, and we both love it. What you said might be true about a man's outside appearance in front of strangers, but not about one's personality. No one likes a crying stranger, sure, but I don't think any woman would like Mr Ironface as her boyfriend, either.

So stop crying like a baby and calling people liars just because you're sour. It's insulting to say the least, and it doesn't justify anything.

P.S.: Why does every thread on WP turn into a rant about women sooner or later? :(

This.

Red hair is a usual thing in women for men to be attracted too.Hardly "unusual".

Though it might be that red hair in men is off putting to women.


It's something a lot of people are attracted to myself included, but red hair in the population itself is an unusual thing. It only naturally occurs in 1-2% of the population.

I understand that you've noticed that there's women that like manly men, but please don't accuse them of lying when they say they don't. You don't know me or anyone else in here that said they don't like manly men, so you have no room to accuse them of lying. I don't appreciate you calling me or anyone else in this thread a liar based on what you've noticed in your life. Please stop making comments like this. I understand it's freedom of speech on this forum, but all you're doing is causing trouble.



Fine, I am sorry, it was a rant.

Um...who wants tortilla chips?

As for the thread, there's none, I can't think of something so unusual that I find attractive.

So you're interpreting the question to mean what "minority trait is attractive to you". not "what trait are you in a minority as finding attractive"?

Which thing did the OP mean?

You're fine, Boo.

Someone reported it, so I was obligated to say something "official."

BTW, thank you for apologizing. I wish more posters had your level of class.

It's not a deal-breaker, or even close to it, but I find straight teeth with prominent eye-teeth (for a human, not for any other animal) a turn-on. Some people actually have their canines cosmetically reduced, and it's tragic in my mind.

I think i like woman with a athletic build .
Not overly muscular but fit.she should be able to hold her own in a fight . Strong yet femine too.Think holly holmes.i also like it when woman wear their hair in a pony tail . Women with a playful tom boy type personality are attractive to me. Warm and friendly. I dont like cold witchy women. I also like a certain way women laugh.
