Why do men only date women they’re attracted to?

Same here. Everyone is doing their best to date people they are attracted to, women included. This is hardly new news.

This, in a nutshell. That being said, I have seen the most handsome, successful men with the what appear to be perfect women, ditch that woman after many years and marry a rather homely looking woman in place of the perfect woman (not in my eyes, but in many). Go figure, you just never know what is the true attraction between two people. I guess it really is not all physical.


What good is attraction if there is no sex between them? Perhaps the hot women were tired of effing them. Perhaps the men went from 6 packs to 2 pack and the perfect beauties lost their attraction for the men.

Average/ below average women like myself find men hotter and attractive for much longer. Beer gut, no problem I have one too.

Tall dudes, choose average women: we will give you more sexy time

Oops. I guess this is pick- me behavior on my part.

JFC, dating is something that has been around for a very long time, and somehow, people seem to find their matches and move along happily. Maybe Op and others should look in the mirror and not look at their physical image but at what lies underneath to understand why certain men might not be interested in dating them. A man does not have to date you because you thing it makes everything fair.


Yes! There should be an office of diversity, equity, and inclusion governing dating and guaranteeing equal outcomes for everyone. It would be only marginally more stupid than the DEI offices that we have at many companies and universities right now.

Also, imagine growing up as a short girl and into a short woman. People treat you patronizingly for decades because they assume you're younger than you look. You are told that tall men are the physical ideal according to society, but you should not date them because you're short. You should not date tall men because only tall women deserve to date tall men. You should stick to dating the men that average height and tall women refuse to date. How would you feel? And then you enter the real world and discover that men of all heights are perfectly happy to date you, and may even prefer to date someone of your height.

FWIW, I married someone of average height because I know the pain of being short and didn't want that for my kids.


I'm a 5' tall female and I have no idea what you're talking about. I didn't experience any of what you're describing. This is clearly a very individual situation. The pain of being short?? That sounds almost satirical to me.

5 foot 8 woman here.

A 5 foot 7 man would have to be perfect: Handsome, kind. Sweet, lean, neat etc.

A 6'3 man could be missing an arm and a leg, and have one eye. and I would pick him first.


Quite happy to be a 6’3” man with both arms and legs and two good eyes. The dating pool is terrific. Seriously.


And I'm the 5'7" guy. It's rough out there for me. I guess I need to get rich.

This country is addicted to getting attention by being a victim. If you’re not a victim first you have no voice.
