Why do women prefer grunts?

Mad Mike

What is is with women and physical labour or rather men doing physical labour?

I am a professional who earns a good living from non-manual labour. My wife is also a professional lady who works in an office. Recently I have been doing some work around the house and garden - nothing very skilled mainly lugging concrete blocks and such. I wouldn't win any prizes for body building but the effect on my wife's general level of randiness is unbelievable. Its not just my wife, I have been getting comments and the female equivalent of wolf whistles from lady friends and acquaintances of all ages.

Its enough to make me think about jacking in the office job and signing up at the nearest building site

Probably something along the lines of -
strong dominant male = protector and provider.

Its in their genes.

Try beating your chest and grunting in the front garden and see what the reaction is then ?

That made me think... Why is that???
I suppose seeing a bloke in a suit sitting at his desk in an office hammering away at his keyboard is just not as attractive as a bloke wearing casual clothes (or even no shirt... sorry getting carried away here) doing something physical.

for the same reason that i find my gf more sexually attractive when she's dressed as a tart than when she's in a suit

OSiriS

Tell your gf to find a better tailor so;)

Physical work makes you flex your muscles. Flexed muscles look better than relaxed ones. It's kind of like women wearing high heels to make their calves look more toned: it kicks off a primal instinct.

me and my friend were actually discussing this recently. wew were driving up south mall in cork where all the offices are and we were casually looking at all the lovely boys in their suits, but when we got to the end of the road there were some road works going on and we bacame alot more attentive.

we both agreed that we love men in dirty clothes , messy hair, and just the general look of a man working on a building site.


we also agreed with eachother that there is nothing like the ass of a man in those snickers pants (the blue/navy pants worn by construction workers and the likes)

jcoote

well if we don't do the manual labour we'll have to do the housework so its fair enough really...i'd prefer gettin dirty and havin a few cans while doin it than puttin on a pinny and havin a cup of tea after it

come on you'll love the black

there dear enough pants too.

Femelade

yeah, black'll do, havent seen much of them though.
love the blue

Loobz

I just dont get it, lol.
How can a man, mucked up to his eyeballs, wearing dirty old pants, sweating like a pig on a treadmill and smells just as bad, no top on, unshaven and scruffy dirty hair make a woman feel horny enough to mount the nearest horizontal object? All i know is if I turned up like that on my girlfriends doorstep wanting to do the business, she'd puke all over her pyjamas.

It definitely must be in their genes, cos its deffo prehistoric or somethin'.

Sparky

i suppose women always liked the attention they get when passing by building sites, its usually on ours that every 5 mins there a pause for a while to have a good look, and some women hate it and others just love it by giving us all a good smile.

The reason is that after 10,000 years of social evolution we're still at heart primal creatures who'd rather be building huts than writing computer code. We spend 24 hours a day kidding ourselves as to what we are and denying our roots that we as a result make ourselves feel miserable and lost most of the time.

Our current transition from an industrial based economy to a service based one is the final nail in our evolutionary coffin and we're not happy chappys about it.

Although no one will care to admit it (and there's a million reasons to believe the contrary) I think we'd be a lot happier as a race back living in caves and chasing our food with a spear.

Bah - why am I training to be an electronic engineer. WHY !! WHY !!

I cant remember which comedian said it but -

College is that great place where you meet loads of people who you can have sex with

Unless of course your studying engineering

Guess engineers just arent sexy enough.

Hold it there a minute - "Engine ... eer" surely lots of opportunity to get your hands dirty with a bit of physical labour there. Even electronic engineers build machines - By the logic of the previous posters to this thread an engineer should be a whole lot more attractive to women than for example an accountant.

Sleepy

Are accountants attractive to anybody?

Ah only if you want raw sex. Accountants are a lot better for conversations. (note, I am an accountant)

pickarooney

This thread and Kiera's sig should remind us all that a freshly sweaty lass is a beautiful thing.

Why do I automatically imagine that every gal with a JessicaRabbit avatar looks like JessicaRabbit? I really must stop doing that!

I dont sweat much - for a fat girl

angeldelight

No I disagree. Give me a guy in a suit over builder type any day. Although guys in uniform aren't bad either!

I don’t actually have red hair but couldn’t see an aviator that suited me. Is there one with a fat sweaty girl carrying bricks??

weemcd

On the other side of the coin tho, why are certain women then attracted to the new breed of "metro" (for lack of a better word) men?

They are a completly diffrent species and are altogether less masculine, so whats the fúckin deal bitches?

newgrange

I believe current research is that at different times of the cycle, women find different types of men attractive.
Blame hormones.

Sweaty filthy beasts at fertile times, metrosexuals at others.

Did you really have to go down that road

larryone

The metrosexuals. Annoying pricks as far as I'm concerned.

I used to do alot more rock climbing. Have lapsed in the past few months, will be getting back into it soon... get back into shape, etc... Was nice when I had a good shape, my gf certainly wasnt complaining

and why the grunts? Probably the whole "rough and ready" thing. I dunno.

tch - did you not know that every thread that has the words "women", "why" and a question mark in the title always come to the same conclusion - Period.

Well to be fair, women use it as an excuse for almost everything mad that they do. Sure there have been murder cases where women have gotten off on temporary insanity due to PMS :rolleyes:
