Do you men really want a low maintenance woman?

I mean, really? Whether it's the monetary cost or time savings, do you really think you'd be happier with a low maintenance woman? All I hear is complaining about how much a haircut/color costs or how much time it takes to straighten hair, put on makeup, etc. I'm just wondering. Only about 2% of us can get away with being naturally pretty. We all need a little help.

Thoughts?

    Yes, yes, a thousand times yes. Luckily for me I found a wife who is naturally pretty and is low maintenance in general. Otherwise I would lose my mind.

    In almost every single "poll" I've read in magazines and what not, the "favorite look" men seem to gravitate towards is their woman with little/no makeup on, a tee shirt, and sweats or jeans. Just au naturale.

    Alos, I think a lot more than 2% of women can get away with being low-maintenance, but they don't believe they can, so they spend hours and hours being high-maintenance. And some of them come out of it looking worse than without all the makeup and super-processed hair.

    Just sayin'.

    What guys say they want "low maintenance girl who likes sports" blah isn't the same as what they will actually put up with in real life.

    I'm sure 99.9% of dudes aren't going to break up with their girl because she takes too long getting ready or something.

    And I agree with this -
    it doesn't take make up, hair color or clothes to make a woman pretty. Hell, all we wanna do is get ya naked!!!!

    Most dudes just want to get to the boobies haha.

    I don't think you understand what a guy means when they say high maintenance.

    You can do all that beautification stuff and still be low maintenance.

    Being low maintenance means the guy doesn't have to be doing a lot of the care. As in the woman can handle a lot of her own stuff.

    Simple answer: Yes

    We don't object to you having a haircut, but one of my friends for example pays for his GF to have her hair done at Toni and Guys, she insists on it. Now that would be a nono

    I think men prefer low maintenance. My husband can't stand to shop with me, and he says that when we met, he was most attracted to me because I wasn't really a girly-girl; I was more sensible than most women he knew. He also likes that the time I save by NOT putting on makeup/styling my hair (I prefer a pixie cut) can be put into our kids.
