Ocee102: I think men's opinions of what attract's women will be affected first by what they think of their attractiveness to women, and what have or or not, or feel they have or not to offer.
If they feel they are attractive to women, they look to what they feel they have to offer as the reason, and if they feel unattractive to or over looked by women they'll look to what they think they lack, that others offer as the cause.A poor, ugly, jerk who feels overlooked has money, looks, and personality as possible reasons to blame for his state of lack. He will most likely choose the trait which is least injurious to his self esteem as the cause.
Most would blame lack of money. Under that paradigm they get to be good people, and the women are cast as gold diggers.
Second would be looks. They get to be genetically disadvantaged(something they don't have to take any personal repsonsiblity for) and women are shallow.
Last would be recognizing that they're just jack asses no one want to be around. Oddly enough the people most likely to choose this as the reason, and problem those in the group it's least likely to apply too. Men who feel they are attractive/interesting to women will look to the traits they posses/feel they posses that are drawing women to them.A clumsy wealthy erudite who feels attractive to women isn't likely to think athleticism is more attractive to women than intellect.
Ive never complained about none of the above.. My only concerns are with their eyesight
mollybaby: There is nothing to add to that Except to look out for the number of men here who say that women are only gold-diggers
I find, the men most likely to make that complaint are old as methuselah chasing 21 years olds. They're also the one most likely to complain all the women here are scammers, and or stuck impolite for not replying to them.
If ya stick yer arm in a catfish hole, don't complain

serene56: Dating sites are full of those But many times their confidence diminishes in direct proportion to the distance from their keyboard
So you end up meeting a beige guy in brown paper packaging lol
I'm the opposite.. I feel more confident when I'm face to face with a person. Eye & body contact can tell more about a persons feeling towards you than a thousand words.

But I guess if we don't change what we are looking for, then we deserve what we get?
Boy are you 100% correct. The thing is, we have to believe that we deserve better then what we had before. At least that's the conclusion I've come to.

Yes, self-belief and introspective thinking goes a long way towards getting what we need and deserve.
