The one thing that makes men the most attractive to women

Very true. All the women I have dated (including the wife) have come from times when I just stopped looking so damn hard and put energy into other things I like to do. I have always thought this is why after you get a woman (and are thus, not trying at the moment) you find that a lot of women are attracted to you.

BIG BUCKS , SMALL BRAIN

1. Being gay makes some guys attractive to women, too.

2. Some women like to be treated like crap and ignored.

3. Others like guys with a sense of humor.

4. A small portion like married or otherwise unavailable men.

5. Others like guys in uniform.

6. and on and on...

Being completely happy about being single? That falls into number four... happy about being single makes you appear "unavailable".

I would say there are two reasons why the original post works for attracting women.

1) Women want to be challenged. Rather than following them around like a needy lost puppy dog, you want to appear that you are the sh*t and could care less. Make her chase you, not the other way around.

2) When you forget about chasing women and lead the life that you desire, you become more attractive. When you care passionately about something, it becomes contagious and that makes others drawn to you. This is why musicians get laid a lot, because they are passionate about what they do.

wow total bs.

woman are attracted to attractive men.

anything else is strictly individual taste.

$$$$$ makes me look better

1. Being gay does not make a guy attractive to a woman. Usually, gay men are good looking, more sensitive, etc. so that can be attractive, but then once we find out they are gay we aren't going to pursue anything.

2. I don't think anyone likes being treated like crap or ignored, but some insecure women can fall into bad relationships.

3. A sense of humor is very important. I cannot stress this enough. Even if you have average looks, a sense of humor will boost your appeal.

4. The reason we like "unavailable" men is that they do not act desperate. I'm not attracted to married men, but I suppose some women might be.

5. Guys in uniform? I guess it portrays power, discipline, and responsibility. I'm not really into it, but dressing well is important.

6. Money is only important in that a guy has a decent job and doesn't still live with his parents. Having "a lot" of money does not make someone more attractive. Anyone who is attracted to more money is shallow and not every woman is shallow. I don't care how rich Hugh Hefner is, I'd never consider him.

Well, yeah. This is true by definition. Yes, attractiveness is attractive. The point of the thread is that "attractive" is subjective and different people find different things to be attractive.

This is completely true. Not only will your pursuing of your interests attract women and friends with similar tastes, but it will weed out women who don't have compatible interests and also weed out women who just want attention and don't have a life of their own. If you've changed yourself and the things you normally do to attract a woman, you'll both end up disappointed.

This is exactly what I have observed. Spot on.

Incredible insight. It never occurred to me that women are attracted to what they are attracted to.Thanks bro.

Runners are just as passionate about what they do, but they don't get laid as often as musicians.

Why are women more attracted to musicians than to runners?

I used to believe that too, and surely would still like to believe that. And maybe we could argue about the precise meaning of "likes" or something. But stick around another few decades, tRg, with your eyes open and you'll probably come to agree that there's a depressingly large number of people, predominately women I'd say, who demand to be treated like crap.

4. The reason we like "unavailable" men is that they do not act desperate.

Unavailable men have other appeals for other women too. An obvious one is potential for having some fun without the danger of deeper entanglement.

The "not desperate" thing is clearly a big part of why a dude's more attractive when he's not looking so hard. It registers as confidence. That seems pretty much a universal: chicks dig confidence, whether it's "I'm happy with life, content with independence, not desperate for a women" or "I'm a total badass" or some other variety.

I think most women are more attracted to musicians than runners because they are playing music for others, while running is seen as a more selfish activity.

- playing seven or more gigs in a week doesn't zap yr sex drive like triple-digit mileage

- musicians, depending on their instruments, develop lots of skill and strength with their fingers and/or mouths plus impeccable rhythm

- hey, who says runners don't get laid?

- or that all musicians do? I know some that'd be long shots in a bordello!

Having been a reasonably decent musician and runner, I'll try to answer that question:I would do a race, cooldown and go home or if it's a team based meet, do something revolving around helping the team. Maybe it involves interacting with some members of the girls team but that's it. There's not much chance to mingle with non-runner spectators.As a musician playing at parties and bars, there is much more chance at interaction with more women. During breaks or after playing, women would always come up and talk. Or I'd go out in the crowd and talk. Also, as a musician women get to see more of you for a longer period of time--especially they get to see a more creative, sensitive side (which they groove on). Most women aren't even paying attention to a race lasting longer than 2 minutes. They can admire your finishing kick and stamina but it still doesn't compete with playing up on a stage.

Or maybe women find something inherently "cool" about a guy being on stage. If he appears confident yet sensitive and can wear tight jeans, then women are all over him.

I think it definitely has to do with the fact that you need confidence to play on stage.
