He looks like the sh!tty new oompa loompas:

As a 30 something woman I can definitely see the attraction of Zelensky. He’s brave, humble, a great leader, has a lovely accent and is very easy on the eye. I certainly wouldn’t kick him out of bed.

Where anyone is getting the idea that he can be associated with toxic masculinity I have no idea. He’s the farthest thing from it.

Yeah , he should have contrived to have himself blown to bits. Then he'd be the greatest kind of hero of all - a dead hero.

In fairness, nobody is suggesting anything he's doing is toxic. Its just handy for some people who want to absurdly try to equate anything masculine with toxic masculinity in order to render the whole idea moot.

I've never used the term 'toxic 'masculinity' except when discussing the term itself. I don't really know what it means. I think it could have some meaning when someone tries to use traditional ideas of masculinity to exhibit toxic behaviours. Trump is a pretty good example. The puffed-up, macho idea of masculinity, bullying, aggressive lying, meeting the slightest criticism, no matter how valid, with aggression, all ego and absolutely no humility. Poundshop machismo. Some people fall for it and think it looks like genuine strength.

Zelensky doesn't seem to exhibit any of those behaviours. He wouldn't really have time as he's quite busy exhibiting some really positive behaviours as a man such as; standing up against an aggressor, defending the people he's in charge of defending and not making it all about himself.

@FintanMcluskey - Same in everyday life, women love a "hero" who can fill them with absolute ****.

I wonder what's the word you've asterisked out. I've an idea.

We've sure seen plenty of that around these parts . For many decades Irish people ascribed inadequacies in our socioeconomic performance to something the British did many moons ago . Now Johnson and the Tory Eurosceptics try to deflect blame for their screw-ups to the machinations of the EU. These tired old tropes die hard and the politically gullible always fall for them.

AttractiveAndSingle

It might surprise you OP but women are not a homogeneous blob that all like and show interest in the same things. Bit patronising and old fashioned to be honest. Take a look at yourself.

AttractiveAndSingle

Plus the dude is a manlet. Are you also a five-footer OP? Might explain it.

Yeah much better to send your underlings out to be killed. That is real bravery.

From people who don't understand what toxic masculinity is.

Women are 100% are influenced by a man's prestige/wealth etc. Men are in no way similar and don't judge women based on their social status(we would on things like if they've kids etc which women also do).

Most Irish women wouldn't pass him a second look if he was packing shelves in Aldi.

Another who stands out to me is Peter Crouch, if he hadn't been a footballer and packed shelves in Tesco his wife wouldn't have passed him a second glance.

Crouch shows that height isn't everything or it is possible to be too tall/too beanpole like.

If Peter Crouch, Zelensky and Vitali Klitschko were packing shelves in Aldi, only one would have women interested in him and it wouldn't be the manlet or the beanpole.

I'd wager Zelensky's got a lot more balls than you'd ever have.

Lads, ye have it all wrong... it's quite simple really to understand why the average woman wants to sleep with a man who can do this:

Would it occur to you that personality and behaviour have a lot to do with it? Maybe he's exhibiting some pretry attractive and admirable qualities over the last few month; leading his country, standing up for the people he's charged with protecting. Leading his country to resist an aggressive invasion and advocating vehemently for his cause. Successfully convincing the world to back him and send weapons, and doing it all without an apparent sense of ego or asking for appreciation.

But you seem to think its all about his status and nothing to do with behaviour or personality traits. This is incel thinking.

screamer

I don’t find him attractive but for sure I like traditional qualities in a man as well as a hint of more modern thinking and he surely embodies that. A smart man, a brave man who is defending his family and his country, a caring man, an eloquent man. These are definitely traits that I think many women would find attractive, and unfortunately are very lacking in a lot of men. Anyways, all that aside I don’t envy him the task he has before him, a hard place to be and he is aging before our eyes, poor guy.

Women attracted to money and power? Hold the front page.

Comments here verging on 'if only (insert something pathetic) I'd be a lot more successful at dating the wimmins' thinking.

Putin underestimated Volodymyrs abilities and strength. Putin thought he was sparring with a kitten. What he was faced with was a roaring lion, doing everything in his power to protect his pride and territory.

Similar to how men are not a homogenous blob.

Yet media would have you believe “women are just not safe” from any man. Think of the Gillette add campaigns to try and inspire men to be better. **** off Gillette.

Shite media and social media where the loudest voices are assumed to be the majority is the issue. Most women feel safe and are not victims the whole time. Most men are not toxic rapists who need to try suppress their urges daily.

You hardly expect him to be on the front line. Of course he is being kept safe.

His role is negotiating supplies and support from the west to win the war. He is not directing the military.

What if ‘crouchie’ was doing the robot dance while packing the shelves? Would that sway the odds in his favour? 🤔

Why wouldn't they? He let all the female citizens of Ukraine leave the country and go to safety while he's holding the male citizens hostage in the country against their will and forcing them to sacrifice their lives in this war.

He doesn't have much empathy for all the Ukrainian men that died in the war because he violated their basic human rights by holding them hostage in the country and refused to let them leave. The blood is on Zelenskyy's hands, he's a murderer.

This is like the Titanic movie, where the guy sacrifices his life to save the womans life

Women like men who behave like men, simple.

The insecure / Feminists / Mentality deranged go on about toxic masculinity (a hateful term) because they had some issue with some guy once upon a time and are not mature enough to separate one person from all.

"Women like men who behave like men, simple." But what does that mean when the women themselves left the country. They love the men who stay and fight like men, while they escape out the back door. I understand there is a need for people with children or the elderly etc to leave, but alot of healthy single women left. Its abit of a contradiction. And never talked about in the media.
