While it’s important to find a man that you are attracted to, it’s just as important to be with a man that is attracted to you as well. There are many things that cause a man to become attracted to a woman. There’s all the emotional and personality traits as well as the physical. Today I’m going to focus on the physical characteristics that men find attract because I think there are a few things that need to be put to rest. Don’t worry, I’ll be discussing the more important internal characteristics that men are attracted to at a later date.
What is it that men are physically attracted to?
I know you think all men want super thin models but actually that is not the case at all. In fact for every woman there is in this world there is a guy that thinks she looks absolutely beautiful. Perfect in every way. While it is true some men love skinny women, just as many men if not more find curvy women more to their liking. It doesn’t matter what size you are, or what your body looks like. If you are a woman there are men that find your look to be exactly what they are looking for.
The only reason its believed that men want very thin women is because those are the types of women that are being displayed in magazines, tv and movies. It’s the media that is warping the concept of what men want, not men. Marilyn Monroe wore a size 14 and even today you would be hard pressed to find a man that doesn’t find her attractive. Yet with our current media frenzy I doubt if Marilyn Monroe would even have had a chance to model today.
While each man has his own personal taste and unique criteria there are six things that all men instantly look for appearance wise when it comes to women.
1) Hip-to-Waist Ratio: I know when you hear that you instantly think that means I have to have a 24 inch waist with 36 inch hips. That is not the case at all. Men are not that specific when it comes to women. We don’t walk around with a measuring tape trying to figure out if you fit the bill or not. Its not the numbers or the ratio that matters. Its the fact that you have a smaller waist that leads into your hips. You could have a 31 inch waist with 45 inch hips or a 40 inch waist with 50 inch hips.
Men need to see your waist lead into your hips. When men start becoming serious about the idea of marriage and having children they become picker about the women they choose. They become picker because they need a woman that will be able to bare their children. Whether a man wants children or not, nature as ingrained this thinking deep into a man’s brain.
Subconsciously a man’s mind is telling him to look for this waist hip ratio because a woman with a good waist hip ratio is an indicator of health, youth, strength and good genetics that will allow her to be able to bare strong children. Helps to explain why corsets are so popular doesn’t it.
I know that doesn’t sound all that romantic, but subconsciously selecting a suitable partner with good genetics that will give they children combined stronger genetics is a major driving force for men. You can fight nature all you want, but it will always be in the background trying to work its magic.
The most important thing is to remember to love your body and be comfortable in it. If you don’t like your body then no man ever will. If some guy doesn’t like you because of your body, move on. He is not the man for you.
Keep coming back as we’ll be giving more updates on what men find attractive about women. This is just was just the tip of the iceberg.
