I prefer her to not work and maintain the home and kids... That's just me tho
What happens when the kids are older? I'm not arguing this...I have a totally different lifestyle. But I often wonder about this as quite a few of my acquaintances are moms of teens and college kids, but have never worked.
At that point... It's really going to be up to her...
I'd like to see her do something that she loves to do or work on school or something... Rather than go to work doing something she would hate...
Like a side business or something
To circle back to the latter part of the question posed by @nooshi713 , are you really ok with doing 50% of the housework or just hope your woman will end up doing most of it......:
I.e., after the kids have left the nest and Mrs. Healthy is now happily busy doing something she loves - do you envision that you would be sharing housework chores at that point?
The kids will be doing the housework 🤷🏽♂️.... 😂2 -
I want to know what the women of MFP think on this one. If you had to be shallow, which one do you prefer. Below average height men or above average height men
I'm apparently right at the average height for men (5'9") so I have to say above average height. The SO is 6'9" so I think he qualifies in that category.1 -
Do you really mean it when you say you prefer girls who don’t wear any makeup, or are you trying to sound down to earth?5

Ok, fellas, here's another one for you:
What do you think of a woman being forward or assertive? This could be in terms of flirtation and dating, asking for a raise/promotion, or whatever you think fits the question. And, do your original thoughts/feelings ever change over time as she continues to exhibit this trait?
To frame things a bit - I'm not talking about overtly outrageous behavior that would be inappropriate in front of your grandmother/boss/priest/authority figure of your choosing. More like, a woman who initiates conversation first & asks you out. A woman who stands up for herself when a male gym rat tries to usurp space or equipment. Make sense?0 -

No I honestly have a weakness for a bare face2 -

I realize everyone is different so I'm curious to see what you all have to say...
Do you prefer someone who is... Shy and awkward (not creepy), or confident and cocky (bordering arrogant)?
Shy and awkward. Probably because I am.1 -

i prefer makeup personally
not like kabuki theater/youtube tutorial/caked on style. that looks absurd.
but when it's done well and she looks hot then it's good
idk if some guys "fake" not being into makeup looks. personally never known any guy who would or did at least so it prob is just personal preference.6 -

This one’s tough. Personally, I prefer less makeup, however some women just like using it so whatever makes her happy.2 -

personally i prefer quiet librarian types.
but if a woman is assertive it's usually kind of funny to me. most women used to being chased and if they arent, and they have to do the chasing, they're usually not super good at it and end up getting mad at the guy because he doesn't respond how she would. or how she thinks he should.5 -
And another because I'm feeling greedy today
Belly button piercings on pudgy tummies (stretch marks optional): men still find them attractive, or not so much?0 -

long as it's clean i guess. some girls don't clean it good and then it smells like sweaty pocket change2 -

If he’s the type who can’t be gotten, he’ll probably make me feel jealous at some point. But jealousy isn’t a bad thing. I kinda like the heat of it
As for the flip: nothing is more attractive than a guy who doesn’t feel jealous1 -

Nope and nope.
Just no need for it, really. His mind can go where it wants, and if he physically cheats, then she can keep him, because why would I still want such a creep?
And jealousy is based out of weakness, IMHO - why would I like weakness in him? Jealousy is simply not attractive to me.1 -

I don’t have any decent story, but I was horrified with a guy I had to work with one time. His mind was latched to perversion and dark chit. Kind of a dodgy guy, but he probably wasn’t even as bad as some others out thereGettinLean19 wrote: »
I despise this kind of guy who just puts on a facade, and not only that but is manipulative.

This is very true. It is not that women don’t want guys who are nice. They want someone with a cool personality who they are attracted to. Some guys are just all around unappealing but try to label themselves nice to blame women for their lack of success.
Exactly.
That's manipulative and narcissistic. Can't be his fault, must be all the women he dates not seeing how great he is.
Any guys who uses "nice guys finish last" when I am dating him, I immediately second guess my decision to date him further.....
Same! It they are truly nice, then their actions will show it.
Sounds like there might be a backstory and I’m here for it
Uh huh, sounds terrible. Do you have his number?
I’m just kidding 🤗0 -

Hmm... interesting take on the flirting/dating side of things, had never considered that before.

I like this kind of woman- tbh I’m often oblivious to a woman flirting with me cause I just assume she’s being friendly and I’m likely right 9/10 times - so I have no problem if she spells it out and says hey - you’re cool let’s grab drink 🤷♂️3 -

Answered this before I think - but as long as it’s not overly done as imago eluded to - then I’m all for it - But no make up is cool too - I tend to attract a non make up wearing woman - not sure why lol2 -

OH GEEZ I had no idea that was a thing, pardon me while I tidy up the mental vomit
A new acquaintance keeps flashing hers and boasting about how she picks up guys at the bar with it. My issue with it is -- besides her being generally just annoying about it -- what if you pull up your trousers too quickly and tear the sucker out?2 -

Do you find that attractive?
Most woman smell good - if they don’t it’s a bad thing lol

No I honestly have a weakness for a bare face
Perhaps you are an exception to the rule, but I feel men that say this actually like the no makeup makeup look more than an actual makeup free face.7 -

Then again I'm a guy... So do I really have a clue what is no makeup... I know what I like tho...
Also note that I'm not saying I don't like makeup... I just think no makeup is hot... It makes you look vulnerable and that's just hot lol2 -

A small dose of jealousy can keep you striving to become a better person. It’s when it consumes your thoughts and actions that it becomes unhealthy and unattractive.2 -
