Looks are far less important to women, in general.
Facts say otherwise.
I stand by my statement.
I agree 100%. Of course great looks help with at least the initial attraction, but most women care very little about guys looks. Or his money for that matter.
Hispanics are more likely than the general population to develop diabetes. It is estimated that 2.5 million, or 10.4 percent of Hispanic and Latino Americans aged 20 and older have diabetes. Hispanics also are more likely to have undiagnosed diabetes than non-Hispanic whites and non-Hispanic blacks. Nearly half of Hispanic children born in the year 2000 are likely to develop diabetes during their lives. Risk factors include: being overweight; having a parent, brother, or sister with diabetes; being older than age 45; having had diabetes when pregnant; and being Hispanic/Latino, Alaska Native, American Indian, African American, Asian American or Pacific Islander.
Study finds unattractive men most likely to incorrectly think women dig them. (http://blog.chron.com/momhouston/2011/12/study-finds-unattractive-men-most-likely-to-incorrectly-think-women-really-dig-‘em/ - broken link)
From my own experiences I find this hard to believe. I never thought for one minute that anyone ever was interested in me.
You mean NEVER EVER? I find that hard to beleive or do you mean the people that were attracted to you wouldn't have wanted regardless?
I mean never ever. I really didn't think anyone had ever been attracted to me until I was well into my 20s, and it seemed as if then it was more because of my job, degree and other achievements.
A guy once told me 'you're the kind of girl to f***, not the kind to marry'. So yeah, some women are treated better than others. I will never be that cutesy girl sipping lady drinks at the bar, giggling at all the silly stuff the men are saying. I tried that once and got plenty of attention, but it just felt fake.
I sip cutesy lady drinks at a the bar, it would help if I were cuter though. So this is a moot point, LOL. Anyway, that is really freaking rude what that guy said to you geez! I had a male friend tell me I would be prettier if I "wasn't so fat." He just flat out said that. Have men (or women) ever told you that you're intimidating? I can understand what this means if a man says it about another man or a woman says it about a man. But I do not understand what it means for a man to say that about a WOMAN. IMO I think he means the woman is big and ugly.
Agree with this. I'd say the 'study' is flawed somehow.
It's gotta be. Ugly dudes have no delusions about their appeal to women; experience shows they have none. Most likely men who have had even a bit of success with women probably have a higher opinion of themselves for two reasons. First, if you're batting .010 with women (you hook up 1 time out of 100 attempts), you're still successful. Second, women do have bad taste.
I mean never ever. I really didn't think anyone had ever been attracted to me until I was well into my 20s, and it seemed as if then it was more because of my job, degree and other achievements.
There was this really attractive guy that I used to think liked me at some point, but I still beleive he either didn't really like me and I was exaggerating it or he liked me but for sexual purposes only (which is what all the other instances amounted to). My point is, there was probably some woman that actually liked you and you chalked it up to something else, since it's so hard for you to beleive it could've been true. Like the other poster said, you're a 'flawed' source for data, LOL
Edit: FYI, unattractive women don't have any delusions about our attractiveness to men either.
