If a man sees a woman and finds her unattractive, would he choose to go on a date with her, in order to get to know her personality?
Do men give women they find unattractive a chance to get to know them better (i.e personality), or do they only go on dates with women in which there is initial attraction? As a woman myself, I won’t dismiss a man who I find unattractive, until I find out what his personality is like. Do men think this way? |
Just as you shouldn't generalize about men, don't generalize about women.
I'm a woman and would have a hard time going out with a man I had zero initial physical attraction to. There has to at least be SOMETHING there; otherwise it's hard to imagine him being more than a friend. |
To me absloutely yes...no way I will f$$ck an ugly chick, especially for the rest of my life locked into a marriage. But I know more than a few guys who have married a women for their resume or professional earning potential. These women were low on the looks dept across the dept. Looks like it goes both ways....men do marry women for $$. |
Has to be a physical spark. Great personality isn't going to make up for it if there isn't. |
Boredom affects decision making. |
Physical attractiveness varies. One person's average is another person's hot. For example, Kate Middleton is objectively pretty but does nothing for me. I like ethnic looking women. |
What are his other options? Does he have a bunch of hotties lined up to go on the dating app? |
I've always felt this way about Jennifer Aniston. No, not interested in dating a woman I'm not attracted to. - A man |
Woman here. Same goes for some men for me. I can recognize that they're attractive, but they don't do much for me. Then there are other men who might not universally be considered attractive, but they drive me insane. |
Yes, initial (sexual) attraction is absolutely essential to men! The good news is that most men are sexually attracted to most women. So this is a relatively low hurdle to clear. |
Why does no one ever ask this question about women?! Sexual attraction is important to us too! |
It's not important to women, women look for caregiver not looks, it's science |
Oh give me a break. As a woman, I 10000% disagree. I assume you also think we're frigid prudes? |
Um, no. The science on this is social science, anthropology, specifically. Qualities that physically attract women are thought to be linked to an ability to protect and provide, but physical attraction is a thing. |
