Why do people think men don't care about looks?

All the men I met said they care about a woman's looks when it gets to sex, and most refuse to have sex with overweight or old women (past 45). I think people put too much emphasis on minority of guys here.

  • It depends on their age and what they are looking for in a relationship. Everyone has different tastes and preferences.

    I will say that appearance was always important to me. I wouldn't date someone whom I didn't find physically attractive according to my own standards of feminine beauty.

    Funny story. I had high school girlfriends from the time I was 16. They were all fully developed with really nice boobs and curves.

    When I was about 19, a friend's dad was entering his Pantera in the Newport Concourse d'elegance car show. There were supposed to be Playboy bunnies there.
    I was excited to see real Playboy bunnies.
    But when I did see them, I was less thrilled than I had anticipated. They were more filled out and "womanly" than the girls I was used to. LOL
    That had to do with my age at the time. And I'm sure they thought I looked like a kid.

    Years later, when I was 36, I met a 30 year old who turned out to be the sexiest woman I had ever seen, according to my idea of the feminine ideal. She was a super cute German with natural, bouncy-curly, blond hair, 5'2", around 34", 24", 34" or so. She was my idea of perfection. Is that every man's ideal? No. Because people have different preferences and there is no cookie cutter standard for ideal.

    I don't know how any heterosexual guy who's into sex can say that he doesn't care about looks. But there definitely are factors like mannerisms, personality, values, etc. that can make a man overlook mere physical beauty.

  • People care about what is compatible for them. For instance, I'd be highly unlikely to be open to a relationship with anyone who isn't a senior citizen. Heavy guys generally don't mind being with heavy women. For every type of person, there are people who are drawn to that type of person.

    You'll be more successful in relationships if you make the most of what already exists rather than pretend you're something else. No one likes to discover they've been given a bait and switch to hook them. Reality always comes to the surface, and we'll resent them for lying.

    • So basically guys do care about looks

    • This has nothing to do with girls or guys. Unless you're blind, you'll respond to visual cues, as well as all other cues. You'll respond differently to someone wearing a tuxedo than someone wearing dirty torn baggy clothing. The key is to understand that everyone has preferences. Preferences are not judgments of you... they're what the person has discovered tends to work better for that person. You'll end up happier if you clearly show the real you rather than pretend something you don't see yourself maintaining. Joining a gym or going to college (in order to attract a higher quality partner) will generally backfire, unless you plan to continue that pattern indefinitely. We all respond to cues. Some people have wider ranges, but all people have limits. Unfortunately, because people tend to feel free to blast others who don't find them attractive, people choose to be vague and general. By not committing to what's real within them, they are less likely to invite the barrage of criticism people feel entitled to spew on others. We would probably experience more truthful communication, if people showed more consideration rather than entitlement.

  • Who ever said men don't care about looks? People make up these statements as if they were facts and then ask baseless questions about them.

    • Literally most people here when I last asked it

  • I know plenty of guys who have no problem dating and fucking plus sized women, including women who are older than their mid 40's, but generally speaking, there's probably some truth to that.

    • I bet those guys are below average

    • Thanks for the compliment girl. There's a lot more to people then looks.

    • Oh, I'm sure they are.

  • men and women both care about looks. that's never going to change

    our eyesight is our strongest sense for reason, more so than our hearing, her sense of smell, our touch and taste

  • At 31, I had sex with a woman at work that was 60.

    • Good for you but I don't think most men would do it. Was she fat?

    • @lenanolena Sent you a PM

  • It matters a lot but we have different tastes.

  • It's probably because men have been known to do most sex crimes. And those target literally anyone & anything. So if men can fuck a dead sheep like 90× more than women can, well they must not care what something looks like right? Ofc many men don't think this way. But it's effected the genders reputation.

  • If she's over 140 lbs. (and that's MAX) I won't even get hard. So it would be pointless to have sex anyways, because I wouldn't be turned on.

    My BDSM Sub is in her 40s though and her body looks better than most bytches half her age. See below (5'3 / 110 and double Ds)

  • Personality and attitude mean more to me.

  • Ofc they care about the looks. Thats one of the highest priorities.

  • and i think men who say they don't care about looks are full of shit, because if they really didn't care about looks then they would date plus size women or other men.

  • If appearance didn't matter then heterosexuality would not matter either, all these guys would be bi. Clearly people saying appearance doesn't matter are lying.

  • I will have sex with someone past 45, because she'll be my wife

  • I guess people don’t take into consideration that they too will be over 45 someday! Then they give up sex?

  • nobody thinks this

    • Lot of people do

  • Looks for both sexes are the initial attraction but if you meet somebody that you don't have that initial attraction too but get to know them and really like their personality there us an attraction that builds from that and you overlook the outer beauty for the other qualities that are necessary for a long term relationship.

  • I think past 25 is old

  • I'm not certain who thinks that men don't care about looks.

  • I would not refuse sex with overweight or older. I can get really personal here

  • They unrealistic

  • Past 45 is old? I'm nearly 49.

  • We care about looks
