    I don't like women with too much make-up or any at all less is more

    This is all so ridiculous. A friend of mine has chicks hitting on him every time we go out. He's handsome and 6'5'' in fairness but I don't think he's ever been in a gym. Any guy I've known like this who is a natural with the ladies has not been a gym guy. It's not about the gym lads, it's charisma and lucky genetics.

    it's far easier to initially attract someone by your appearance.
    most of the women on the thread have admitted to being attracted to muscles, the lean type guy preferable. he'll do that in a gym.
    if he reads a book or two on rests days all the better.

    If you look half decent, a bit of charisma is all you need, even more so now with so many generic dickheads about.

    I feel sorry for the generations now with Taylor Swift to admire. We had Skin.

    It varies. I know women with big tits, small tits. They are attractive because of their manner and how we get on, not because of their body shape. OP thinks spending all his hours in a gym will make him attractive to women.

    Wrong.

    Spending some time reading a book would be more beneficial.

    Give it up, girls don't give a **** about this. Be handsome that's all that matters

    What's wrong with Taylor Swift? She's naturally pretty, hardworking and talented. It's the ones bowing down to Kylie Jenner who I fear for.

    A handsome face sadly and height is paramount, the gym don't change facial structure

    Ok. Well, either I'm a wedding planner who's taking this rather personally, or you're a loud mouthed ill-educated, misogynistic waste of space.

    I'll go with you being a wedding planner so.

    I wouldn't mind if you hadn't gone out of your way to cross quote me from another thread.

    To quote one of my personal heroes : "What a nasty, nasty woman."

    I do. Well read over handsome.

    That's nice but your not reflective of the majority

    Women are complex and whilst it sounds crass so be it. Women are attracted to different types of men for different reasons.
    Women see in men the future of her and the health of her offspring so while she may at one point of the month being romantically drawn to a softer man-boy with dazzling eyes, she will, when ovulating start to be drawn to gorillas who can provide strong if dumb babies. Most women like the soft bear with a brain, think Keith Wood. When the looks and body inevitably fade she still has an old lion who wasn't just a steroid shag.

    What a beautiful lesson to all our sons. "Be handsome that's all that matters"

    Pardon me, if I teach my 5 year old boy to ignore these stupid, ignorant ****witted morons.

    Well, you said girls feel x way, I am a girl, therefore your statement was inaccurate.

    you shouldn't just rely on the luck of the draw to 'look half decent' though.
    there's nothing you do about that but you can get a decent haircut, dress better, get fitter.
    same with non visual, educate yourself, make good money, have interests other than the gym :D
    plenty of things you can do to become more attractive, the more of those you can tick off the better your chances will be.

    handsome & 6'5 there you go, easy as that :D
    he's natural with women as he's likely always had attention from them

    It's a cliche but confidence is really important, for both men and women I think.

    ****ing hell women don't just throw themselves at confidence, this lad is a handsome tall guy, he has women throwing themselves at him, it has **** all to do with confidence


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,184 ✭✭✭✭Galwayguy35


    Body like Caroline Morahan and I'm happy out.

    Height too though. A lot of women don't like shorter guys. I'm perfectly average height but I'm grateful I'm not short.

    doesn't hurt, no. you'll see a lot men that are confident are 'natural' with women, same as the guy above it's usually the ones that have had a lot of attention from them. can be a bit of a catch 22 for certain people.

    ime women are really attracted to a guy that other women/their friends want

    I like a woman with a big ass but I don't like a big ass woman.

    Ok maybe I shouldn't have used him, the 6'5'' thing is always going to turn heads. But other "womenisers" for want of a better word, that I've known, have not been in great shape, just not weedy, or fat.

    Height ain't much use if the guy is ugly though.

    It really is much use though. Anecdotal I know, but I've known a few guys who weren't good looking at all really, but over 6'3'' and they never had problems getting girls.

    Likewise I know some short good looking guys who have no problem getting girls. A few even have girlfriends who are slightly taller than them.

    I love how we're all on here telling women what they like lol


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,401 ✭✭✭Mister Vain


    I think Margot Robbie is absolutely perfect. Slightly petite but well proportioned which is exactly how I like it.

    What do you consider is average height for a man?

    It's actually 5'9'' in Ireland. I'm 5'11'' and I thought I got a bit of a raw deal!

    My figure is like hers but I wouldn't be as toned and am bustier on top. I'd prefer to be much slimmer.
