Most guys don't, myself included. Some very feminine guys however, love em because they are really compatible together. In general terms, a more masculine guy will seek our a more feminine woman and vice versa.

If two such individuals pair up, the sexual tension (spark) is non existent and the relationship will fail. Todays men are more feminine than ever and todays women are more masculine than ever before. This creates a problem of incompatibility.
i'll dig this up since i heard it a few times recently.
alpha chads dissing shy guys saying they are feminine (sissies).
and saying girls that ask guys out are masculine (dikes).

the venn diagram is outgoing women and men can pull outgoing and shy men and women.
shy guys and girls are too shy to ask anyone out; so, that leaves outgoing persons to pull their digits.

If you mean "masculine" as aggressive, brash, intrusive, gym rat, party person and so on (common steretypes of supposed masculinity of city-data!), then no. These types of people literally tend to "stack together" and it's definitely a given that such women DO gravitate towards such men and vice-versa. And it's definitely a given that 'shy guys' tend to avoid such women.

I'm attracted to guys on the shy guys. When I first met my current fiance', he wrote me letters/notes at first to communicate what he wanted to because he was shy. We were in our early to mid-20s. That was perfectly fine w/ me.

The type of woman I am is shy too. I definitely don't like attention-starvers, sarcastic types, brash, domineering, etc. guys.

I didn't used to be shy, but, I think I qualify now. In my late 20s I know I wasn't shy. I was confident and outgoing, talked to people. I had lots of energy. That's how my friends were too. We surfed and skied, traveled. I even helped two of my friends build their company from the ground up. I got married. I felt like I could conquer the world.

Probably around 5 years ago, things changed for me and I just stopped being that person. It wasn't natural for me anymore. It was sort of a problem for my wife(now exwife.) I didn't want to go to parties, I didn't hang around my friends as much, I wasn't social. She was adamant that it was my testosterone levels so I went I had it checked. They were a little low but still within normal range for a guy pushing 40.

I didn't feel like I should get HRT because, I didn't want to be the old me. I liked the mellow me. I still do. So, maybe it was just a natural thing. High testosterone, lots of confidence and aggressively achieving my goals. Now, I'm just chilled out. I take it easy and that's cool with me.

I've always been told I'm shy, and I guess I considered myself that way also because I didn't talk to people I didn't know, but I came to realize I don't want to talk to people. I dread social interactions. So, I think it's not a shy thing, so much as I'm not a person who likes people.
