What is it exactly that a man finds attractive in a woman? Is it one specific thing or is it a combination of things? What's the psychology behind man's attraction to woman?


When a man is attracted to a woman's face or body, what information is he getting about her that makes him want her? What signs does her appearance give off to him?

And what about makeup, why do women paint their lips and eyes? What's the significance? What is she trying to portray or communicate about herself? When a woman picks what to wear, what is she trying to communicate?


Do women naturally know what men find attractive, or is it learned?


Why are some physical attributes attractive to men, but not others?

To answer just the title.....biology.
As to all the other questions, the answers may be as varied as the people responding.

It's not psychology (in the macro) in as much as biology (and then there is sociological aspects). Have you ever taken biology?

I'd start with a biology then an animal behavior course, I had an entire semester in mating systems and social structures of terrestrial animals in undergrad, and that just scratched the surface.

OP, no one can say, any more than one can say why they like vanilla or chocolate...they just do. It is just natures way, unless your a homosexual. In that case, the homo man like hairy men's chests instead of women's soft plump breasts.

For me, women make my heart beat fast and my penis hard. (OK, not as hard as when I was younger, but still, something is better than nothing.) That is all I can tell you OP.
