Many women say they are looking for romance. But a truly romantic man seems to be regarded as a wimp or a closet gay.
It appears women prefer cynicism, sarcastic humour and the old Macho approach.Am I wrong?

Not much

Women prefer a rough guy with a soft side for them

A man can be very much in touch w/ his romantic side and not be emasculated, but there has to be a balance. JMHO.teddybear

you are dead wrong in my opinion.

as a woman, I really don't like cynicism, sarcastic humor and I certainly do not like macho approach...it is venom in a bond between two people

perhaps young girls like it....but I guess they don't know any better with all these cynical, sarcastic and macho men on MTV...
I bet when these girls get older, they start to appreciate the romantic type of man much more....

so, don't give up.....stay romantic and true to yourself, the right person comes along...

Excuse me, but why do you think a person who has the ability to combine humor with sarcasm and look at life with a cynical eye when it's appropriate is automatically not romantic? roll eyes

I'm romantic ... I also have a great sense of humor that often employs sarcasm and am an optimistic realist (meaning I look at things cynically when they deserve to be).

I am not 2-dimensional and I don't want a man who is either. People can have many facets to them... the most interesting and fun ones to be around do. No reason a man can't fit that description.

Who are these women? confused

Yes, I think you are wrong. Trying too hard to please can be a turn off. Just be yourself, but certainly a woman likes to be courted, to be complimented (when you are sincere, she'll sense if it is just words), and she wants romance. I don't honestly think most women like a cynical, sarcastic macho man. Am I wrong?dunno

Maybe you are moving to fast,a relationship takes time to develop.You need to get to know each other first.You might find out after spending time with that person that they were not right for you after all,or you might fall deeper in love,Rome was not built in a day my friend.
