Why People Believe Women Are More Pleasing to the Eye Than Men

Every single society has erotic depictions of women in media, art, entertainment etc. Whether it be a Victoria's Secret model, or even a simple fast food advertisement that depicts women in an erotic manner. Men are never depicted like this, why?

Well, because it's assumed that nobody wants to see a partially clothed man showing erotic mannerisms. It's been stated by many women that men don't look as good as women do, especially naked. I can't think of one instance when a man is depicted in such a way.

Why People Believe Women Are More Pleasing to the Eye Than Men

We straight men get extremely nervous around random beautiful women because we find women physically attractive even if we don't know them. Women don't feel nervous around men because according to various people and so-called experts, women don't find random men visually attractive. So why would they be nervous around men? Even if it's a handsome man, she still won't find him attractive. She needs that infamous emotional connection.

Why People Believe Women Are More Pleasing to the Eye Than Men

When women call men "sexy", unfortunately it's not based on his looks. They only find his personality, mannerisms and scent attractive. I hate that so much because it's deceiving. The farthest they seem to go with visuals is to find his smile and jawline attractive, nothing else. They don't seem to find the rest of a man's face or body attractive because according to various "experts", men have no beauty.

Even straight women find women better looking than men. To them, even the most unattractive woman is still more attractive (physically/visually) than the most handsome man in the world. When's the last time you noticed a woman ogling or checking out a random man on a street? Oh that's right, it probably never happens. People say; "they are more subtle about it" or "women have better peripheral vision than men" and while it's true that women have better peripheral vision, I'm not sure if they use it to check men out.

We straight men get so happy when a random woman flirts with us; women on the other hand, will feel offended or creeped-out. They will say, "ugh get away pervert" or "stop looking at me". It doesn't really matter if he is considered handsome by other guys. This is why I wait for women to make the first move.

Something else I just loathe is how a woman needs to know a man to be sexually aroused by him. Women don't get turned on by looking at a random man in swimming trunks. Even the media goes along with this; commercials and movies show men checking out women in two piece swimsuits while the women don't even care if a guy is shirtless, just like in real life. Here is a picture of what I think of this infamous emotional connection.

Why People Believe Women Are More Pleasing to the Eye Than Men

While I'm not sure if one gender has better-looking bodies and faces, people sure like to think that women are more aesthetically appealing than men. Don't forget a lot of women use beauty products like makeup to make themselves more pleasing to the eye. I'm a straight man so I wonder if that's why I don't think men are pleasing to the eye.

While I can still appreciate both genders as a piece of art, I still think women are more beautiful. It just seems that women only care about what men can do with their bodies more than how men look. I don't want to date a woman that only likes me for my personality or what I can do for her. I want her to like me for how I look as well. I'm still skeptical that women even find men attractive (physical/visual).

  • As a man, I don't care.

  • Can you stop hating on women already. Just because no woman Let you put your Dick in her, doesn't mean they all suck. It is you who is the suckey one sir. It's so easy to blame someone else, or heck, half of earth's population for your problems. But you and you alone are to blame. If you'd spend half the time you spent writing this take on actually working on yourself, you'd get laid more often.

    • I'm not hating women white knight.

    • The reason why I haven't gotten laid yet is because I'm too nervous to flirt. If you want to be a white knight then that's your problem. I think you're the one that called me ugly on one of my earlier takes.

    • White knight? Seriously? Man what kind of pussy are you? You're too nervous to flirt? Bullshit. Grow some balls or be forever alone. And I'm 'the' one? With your attitude I doubt I'd be the only one.

  • Women dress better, smell better, they have boobs, they have ass, they are better at accessorizing.

    • Well having boobs and big ass on man would look ridiculous, men have different beauty standards, in many areas, like being tall and muscular, but having an pretty face is good for both sexes.

    • @Berethor Women are tall, too. And, muscular if you're into that.

    • I can be into that to some extent, but like most men, I am not willing to be with a woman who is taller then me and/or more muscular then me, so it's not the same for women, also men tend to be more taller and muscular as part of their gander, that's why it's seen as manly, very tall women is much more rare then very tall men, and the same goes for women with a lot of muscle mass, it's naturally harder for women to get more muscular, because of being smaller and because women have much less testosterone.

    • Ah, now I understand.

    • No, I just worry a lot.

  • i have a feeling this guy is really depressed for some reason

    • I just worry a lot.

    • I want my future girlfriend to like me for both looks and personality not just personality.

    • Don't expect that unless u look nick Bateman tier. She will always want better

  • beauty is subjective. there is more variety in female beauty ideals and they are more represented than male beauty ideals in our society thus people put a bigger emphasis on female beauty thats why you think and keep making questions about male beauty, because it is so underrepresented that you think men aren't beautiful at all.

  • Interesting theory. But there is really no certainty in life.

    • What do you mean?

  • Women DO find men sexually attractive. And what? We find the ugliest woman more attractive than the best looking guy? Are you insane? The only reason women are sometimes viewed as more sexy is because half naked women have been pushed on us since childhood and it's messed up how we see things. Women do check out men and honestly men in my opinion are way more attractive than women.

  • "Even if it's a handsome man, she still won't find him attractive. She needs that infamous emotional connection."
    "When women call men "sexy", unfortunately it's not based on his looks. They only find his personality, mannerisms and scent attractive."
    So you really think you know women better than they know themselves?

    "When's the last time you noticed a woman ogling or checking out a random man on a street? Oh that's right, it probably never happens."
    Except you see it LITERALLY ALL THE TIME. It's impossible to go through a day without seeing it happen.

    This take is just really offensive and filled with generalizations. It seems to me like you know absolutely nothing about women so you're assuming stuff about them to make yourself feel better.

    • No, I just worry a lot.

    • But it's true. How often do you see women staring or whistling at men in the street or getting aroused every time a young man goes out in a pair of shorts? It's extremely rare. You're way out of touch with reality.

    • So you are going to deny that women don't think that women look better? Don't lie to me, I've never seen a woman check out a man.

  • People are dumb. I am more pleasing to the eye than most women are.

  • cos you're a poofter, that's why.

    • I don't speak slang.

    • well yeah, i called you gay. and slang? well yes, many use it. possibly you're asperger's too, since non-asperger's people get social looseness.

  • What? Your myTake is right to some extent. But I actually caught myself looking at some guys and admiring how they look even tho I don't know them. So that means that there is a part of us that's visual too and that is why handsome actors and singers are popular with girls. But that doesn't mean I'd be in a relationship with them just based on that.

    • So you think women are better looking?

    • Also why did your admire how the guys look? Is it physical attraction or is it just appreciation as if they are pieces of art?

    • I think some men are better looking than women and vice versa. But even if a girl was more good looking than a guy, as a straight female, I would have sexual feelings for the guy while I don't feel anything for the girl. I'm not sure but there were some few instances where I found some guys really handsome and I felt nervous around them. Some of these times were just me admiring their looks and some of them I actually thought they are hot. But I still didn't want to do anything about it because the emotional connection matters to me more. I need to feel relaxed and comfortable with him.

  • Well I agree with you mostly about women not being visually attracted to men, the only part I raised my eyebrows is when you say that they like certain kinds of jawlines. Like... what?

  • Unfortunately being a man sucks :'(

    • I'm not sure about that but i doubt women even care about how guys look.

  • I like looking at women for their soft features. I ain't gay but i can appreciate a mans jawline or nice muscle definition.

  • Dude, where do ya live? XDDD

    • In the U. S.

    • Maybe you need to get out more or somethin'. XD

  • you are delusional lol

    i find men attractive to the point i want to jump their bones. i could stare at some guys all day, i even fantasise about guys. we are just more discrete (apart from now) about it than men are with their attraction for females.
    personality is important, looks are important. for some people more than the other, for some both go hand in hand. why do men on this site always want to make things a battle of the genders i really don't get it lol

    • you need to understand not all women are like this but there is a group of them that are that's why you hear this from guys so much cause its true where not complaining we just speak the truth

    • Wow , for real?

    • Why is it that women are never seen ogling or checking out men? Why is it that women don't really make a big deal if a man is shirtless? Why is it that women think men are not as pod looking as women?
