Depth and the ability to talk sounds like woman, but it's just intelligence. I can't really say women like masculinity when it's transparent and one-dimensional, lying constantly and witless to that in complete self-unawareness. A multi-faceted guy they seem to like, certainly not the guy to pigeon hole himself.
If you don't mind behaving like a girl you'll seem the most masculine in the same way that if you don't mind looking gay you'll seem the most straight.
Now I'm not totally convinced of the above merits, but it's not without them. The rugby club is full of emotionally irrational men, the gym is full of narcissistic sports pimps. What with willpower being on the inside power doesn't try very hard to look like power, the masculine-looking are not necessarily, or even very often, leaders.
LeeCharming: You could pick up a guy like, that at most universities in the west...they might wear a piny and heels also
I prefer a man who looks like a man, speaks like a man and does like a man. And when he says "Don't worry, everything will be alright..." I know he is there for me in any possible way...and that makes me stronger and I am there for him in any possible way...

Seems to me you want a traditional man, but the question is would you become a traditional woman

Tradition shouldn't be clung to just for the sake of it. Times change and what used to work doesn't always carry on working, people have to adapt. You may as well get used to it because you're not going to turn the clock back.
Prometheus1: ...Women are very selective today and they have many options they did not have in their parents day. 60 years ago the man went to work and the woman stayed home to raise the kids. Today those days are over. Since it takes two incomes to support a household women found by entering the workforce they learned they can micro manage the boys in industry as well as at home. The roles have changed a bit and women do not need a man to support them nor be subservient to them.
Many boys here may wonder why its so hard to find a woman here or any dating site because women do not need a man anymore they don't need that masculine role. Its a matter of want not need. To be in a position to decide if you want vs need is empowerment.
Prometheus, You made several true statements. You have an understanding of the present state of affairs more so than most.
I would like to make a couple comments... 1. Many people believe that it takes two incomes to survive. But it is quite feasible to live on one. If the value of the woman is based upon her bringing in a paycheck, then the quality of home life deteriorates. Society has lost its understanding of a woman's value. It isn't something tangible... It is the atmosphere she creates around her that determines her value. How has she developed her character? Is she consistent, reliable, loving, trustworthy, nurturing?
2. Want vs Need We need the opposite gender in order to survive. While women may *think* that they don't need a man, the truth is, if she wants to live a long and quality healthy life, she must have a true man around. The consequences of our decisions can't be escaped.
Prometheus1: Both male and female have their preferences of personalities and its all a matter of searching for self and understanding self and purpose. Its not so much of preference of masculine or feminine energy for both male and female have both.
Your conclusion is excellent. It is a matter of preferences and what we believe to be lacking or to be the definition of the self. Many have lost their "purpose" in a world were we are treated as a disposable part of a machine.
