It looks like my other post about masculine women is getting some interest, so lets reverse the question and talk about straight feminine looking men.
What do you think of men who want relationships with women but are not the masculine ideal? In fact they look and act feminine. I am not talking about a cross dresser or transgender person, but just a man who has lots of female traits.
I am thinking of Mr Rogers. Soft, gentle, non athletic, small bones, weak chin, skinny, weak voiced and non assertive. Though really nice, supportive, communicative, easy going and pleasant. All the negative things associated with macho and manliness is gone in this person.
Would you want a relationship with a clone of Mr Rogers?
Mr. Rogers wasn't effeminate!
He was just a humble, soft spoken fellow.
I agree with others in distinquishing between the girly acting, prissy dudes and the ones like Fred.
I find them/the difference to be night and day.
P.S. I'm assuming it is okay to give an opinion regardless of one's gender??? LOL!!!
I'm married to a "feminine" man. He's not rugged, his voice is feminine, I thought he was gay for a long time because he is feminine, but he's not. He doesn't know how to work on cars, but he is a good handyman around the house. He isn't a good protector because he won't stand up to another guy because other guys intimidate him, but he won't take a second thought to hit me or my kids. He has a self esteem issue because of his femininity. He is a womanizer and DOES check out other women in my presence. He is NOT a good provider and is very selfish. I would take an old fashioned man any day!!
Agree! Totally different....we like Fred. He was real and comfortable.
Fem guys are annoying....and I cannot seem to admire a "metrosexual"either!
But I tolerate all...

i'm very attracted to feminine men. Someone actually suggested to me that as far as guys go, the feminine ones are my "type." i'm also attracted to very feminine women, so there's a pattern, i guess? Lol
a lot of times when i'm attracted to a guy, i wind up finding out he's gay. Of course feminine guys are not always gay...i just have terrible luck!

So true
Ps.Confident man to me is a man who is comfortable with him(real)self and has courage to express himself freely in an authentic way that doesnt include any kind of pose,play or pretending. Man who is vunerable,open and able to show his true ways,needs and feelings is not "not-manly" in any way.This is a sign of strength

I don't like it. Raises that question of just how feminine are you?......bi-sexual, metro sexual, experimental.
I like 100% men. No questions necessary.
Reducing qualities such as kindness, gentleness, softheartedness, and soft-spokenness in a man to simply being "feminine" (to the exclusion of other so-called masculine traits) is a massive injustice to men as a whole, IMO
