In the world of boy meets girl, you ever wonder how the
points of attraction changes. What matters? According to Dr. Joyce Brothers, in
her book, WHAT EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW ABOUT MEN, she explains how the initial
physical attraction works and why.
Ever wonder why the girl who developed breasts first suddenly
became the most popular girl at school with the boys? Most of us thought it was
because she was easy or at least that was the rumor, which may or may not have
been true. This particular girl epitomized the basic differences between male
and female by being the first to display secondary sexual characteristics (i.e.
boobs.) No matter how dweeby the boy he
felt more manly around her. That was her allure. Boys still somewhat confused about their sexual
identity found some clarity standing next to her.
Dr. Joyce Brothers believed that instinctively the men were
drawn to the breasts on a primitive level because they felt she would be able
to bear and nurse children.( All thirteen year old boys think this.;)) On the
other hand, they felt assured of their masculinity by just standing beside someone
who wasn’t male. In short, men who need to compensate for their lack of true
manhood prefers only to date your D-cup girls.
Psychology Today magazine also shows a parallel that the better socially
adjusted a man the less he needs to date a supermodel-like woman for esteem
issues.
Dr. Joyce Brothers explained that women used to be drawn to
big shouldered men with powerful, hairy chests. On the primitive level, this
man showed he could protect her with his muscular physique. His level of
hairiness demonstrated a high level of testerone flowing through his body
indicating he’d have a decent sperm count. You may have noticed women don’t
really like the big, hairy-chested guys anymore. Wonder why?
The media influences tastes by showing slender, hairless men
in commercials, magazines, and movies. Hairy guys are getting waxed in droves
in hopes of finding a mate. Many guys are shaving all over convinced that hair
is the opposite of attractiveness. This explains all the bald men currently
walking the streets.
What do men first notice about women? According to a survey
taking in South Florida, it is their butt, their legs, their eyes, their face,
and breasts. The survey taker pointed out because of a strong Cuban presence
that the men preferred a fully rounded derrière. There is no mention of hair, but in all other
Southern states, long hair is the number one attraction. One man described long
hair has hiding a multitude of flaws, everything from jughead ears to a lack of
a firm chin line. As far as color, men want what they don’t have. If they are
brunettes, they prefer blonde, but all like redheads.
An unusual study in Australia, showed single men pictures of
women that had their arms photo shopped. No matter what the woman looked like
they always picked the women with the longer, proportioned forearms. It appears
the men were responding to symmetry in nature. That means when my hairdresser
told me I had great forearms that really was a compliment.
What do women want in men? The number one item is height. If
your sweetie or husband is around your height or shorter, than you are a rare
woman that netted a great guy that other women overlooked. On dating
sites, women will put 6’ or taller as their first requirement. Only 13% of the
US males meet that standard. Some of those men are married, old, gay, or just
plain jerks.
Another thing women still like is hair, a full head of hair.
Bald men are more popular than men with thinning or receding hairlines.
What do you think the third most desirable male quality is?
Is it his smile, his eyes, his trim torso? Nope, it’s income. A woman can tell what a man is approximately
worth by where she meets him at. Plenty of money guys hang out at the county club,
golf course, or opera house. She notices what he wears and is very cognizant of
labels and tailoring. By the company he
keeps, he tends to hang out with other high wage earners. Before you classify
the woman as a gold digger keep in mind she might want to start a family and
needs a good provider. Income is the new broad shoulders and hairy chest.
After the wallet test, a woman likes a man who smiles. He
makes her feel good about herself. He also gives the appearance of having
things under control, and that’s attractive. If he can manage his world well
enough to smile about it, then he can also manage their world.
Trends change as noted by men engaging in waxing, and full
figured women coming back in style. Yes ladies, men are saying they prefer
women with meat on their bones. A rather odd change is coming about due to the
youth-oriented culture that is rather narcissistic in nature. Think of the
thousands of pictures your son, daughter, niece, etc. has posted on Facebook,
or the endless videos they posted on Youtube.
These are people who enjoy looking at themselves. It makes sense they’d
prefer someone who looks like them. Enter FaceMate, a dating service that
matches up your face to the most similar face it can find of the appropriate
sex.
Apparently seeing your face on someone else’s body
encourages trust, comfort, and happiness. Just take a gander at Jerry Seinfeld
and his wife. Makes a person wonder.
