Guys versus Girls

<p>First, stop! This isn't the typical "what do girls/guys look for in guys/girls" threads. My question is, what is it about guys in general that girls like (and vice versa). For example, I'm a guy. And I see why girls IN GENERAL are attractive to me:</p>

<p>-they are more beautiful than guys (physically)
-they are more compassionate than guys
-they are more forgiving than guys (usually)
-they are more willing to help others than guys
-they are more intuitive than guys</p>

<p>What is it about guys/girls in GENERAL that turns you on? I ask this because, as a guy, I genuinely don't see why girls go for guys and not other girls :)</p>

<p>hahaha good stuff.</p>

<p>Your screen name is awesome. </p>

<p>I play guitar but I'll never reach his level. </p>

<p>Anyway, what I like in guys? Very, very simple:</p>

<p>EVERYTHING. </p>

<p>Guys are completly charming. Their nature is lovely. It's hard to explain... but guys are just so freaking handsome (some of course) and i dunno the way they act. Like they are always sort of like curious little boys (I mean this in a cute way) and are easy to persuade and will always look at you more than necessary and notice when you look pretty. And a bunch of other things. </p>

<p>They are just lovely. :)</p>

<p>I know, Paco is phenomenal, I have his CD and I don't even know how to play the guitar. And I like your answer, can you be more specific? I just find this strangely fun to talk about. To add to my response maybe, we have a protective instinct to protect girls, and even to possess girls I think. Sometimes I feel that we dwell on girls, and girls like to be dwelt on (?), I'm not sure. I also think girls are really cute when they get angry...</p>

<p>Is this like a "describe your ideal guy" kind of question, or is it more general like a "what do you like about guys in general" question that doesn't really ask about the specifics of the guys that turn me on? Did that even make sense? lol... I'm very picky about the guys I date, so my list of traits for the ideal guy would be quite long... lol</p>

<p>This is NOT about your ideal guy...it's about what you like about guys in general</p>

<p>i love how guys are willing to give everything when they're in love. both partners obviously have to give in a relationship for it to work but eesh, the way guys bend over backwards for their girlfriends is so cute</p>

<p>I think hormones and instinct are a big part of it too... pheremones and all that... plus, don't forget that some ppl are homosexual.</p>

</p>

<p>That is totally subjective. My girlfriend (who is really fit) and I hang out naked all the time, but I don't get turned on at all.</p>

<p>More specific.... Mmm... that's kinda hard...</p>

<p>1) Well as someone already mentioned, it's adorable how guys would do anything for girls. A guy has the potential of working all summer just to buy his girlfriend a diamond ring because "she deserves it" and make her happy. It's not the fact that's expensive, it's that they are willing to work so bad just to make you smile. :)</p>

<p>2) Body. Need I say more?</p>

<p>3) How they's stop midway WHATEVER they're doing to watch you if you're taking off your clothes and then look at you like a baby who got a new toy. Not sexual, but like a curious little boy. It's adorable. </p>

<p>4) Their instinct is to protect us and it's wonderful the lengths they would go to achieve this purpose. </p>

<p>5) THEY ARE FUNNY!!!! Us girls are not funny. </p>

<p>6) How they are so easy to persuade. </p>

<p>7) How they get jealous over small things and say: "you're mine and only mine." :)</p>

<p>8) Guys are just generally much more fun to hang around with than girls. i.e. who was the class clown in high school? It was never a girl... But there was always a group of jocks who were hilarious....</p>

<p>9) Deep voice.</p>

<p>10) How they actually tell you all their feelings and such once you get to know them really really well. I think in a way, guys are more sensitive that girls. </p>

<p>And a bunch of other things.... :)</p>

<p>interested in hearing more from both guys and girls...and even if you are gay, just tell me what you like in general about the same sex</p>

<p>I'm repeating this from the College Confidential Cafe forum, because I think it's actually pretty neat:</p>

<p>"Us girls are not funny."
This line annoyed me more than ANYthing I have ever read on CC. It makes me want to punch myself in the face.</p>

<p>of course these are generalizations. with that said, i (a girl) like these things about boys:</p>

<p>-emotional simplicity/less dramatic than girls
-endearingly competitive with each other
-interested in talking about ideas and things more than nitpicking/overanalyzing about interpersonal relationships</p>

<p>Omg Im So Sorry!!!!! I Didn't Mean It In A Bad Way Lesos!!!!</p>

<p>Roflauren. /<em>comment</em>/</p>

<p>as a guy, i gotta say i agree that girls aren't usu. as funny...i mean, there aren't as many girl comediennes (sarah silverman, margaret cho), but the one's that are out there are hilarious...i think part of it is that maybe ppl think humor is more attractive in guys than girls? i think sarah silverman is strangely hot.</p>

<p>anyways, maybe to add to this list:</p>

<p>-girls are vulnerable and it really makes us love them (i don't know why)
-girls can make fun of us, but they can also take being teased by us (most guys get more offended)
-girls send mixed signals, which is kinda cute...like they might say we're being obnoxious but sometimes they like it :)
-girls judge us, so we want to show off for them
-girls are hard to get in some way, that makes it funner?</p>

<p>haha yeah see as a guy, all that stuff would **** me off (maybe thats partly why i'm straight and why i do all that stuff :) ? )</p>

<p>anyways, more stuff on girls:</p>

<p>-they smell good :)
-they are vulnerable, and somehow that makes me want to protect them
-they can take being teased and don't get too offended
-they send mixed signals...like they might act like they think we are obnoxious but really like us, and that mystery kinda makes them interesting to me</p>

<p>guys have more muscles</p>

<p>i think guys are more sincere than girls
a girl, she'll act all nice to you and when you're gone she'll talk bad behind your back
a guy, if he has a problem he'll beat you up and get it over with</p>

<p>guys are less emotional than girls and they're not always crying for stupid reasons and making you feel uncomfortable</p>

<p>also guys are better looking than girls, imo
girls just spend more time on hair, makeup, and clothes- that makes them appear to be better looking</p>

<p>I totally agree with that!!!</p>

<p>That's SO true. I don't know one girl who doesn't do that. But its baaaaad. I mean they not only talk bad but scheme and do all these things. Myself included. Guys if they don't like you, they tell you and that's that.</p>
