Ladies do you understand manhood or no?
September 16, 2004 - 06:17 AM

Can you honestly say you understand manhood. Its specifics, its vast sphere of interaction with environment.

Men saay they dont understand women: Would it be so hard for you to say: This is what i want: So what do You want, my dear MAN?

Not to forget: u'll need tolerance, as we are all very different and good understanding (knowledge).

Why dont just start:

First question (plz be sincere there is nothing you can do to shake me up,lol):

We like tall men with strong arms because they are handy for putting up shelves and carrying in the shopping. And scrawny men with weak arms can't carry you over puddles like Darcy in Pride and Prejudice!

I don't 'understand' manhood. Is there much to understand? I thought we were all pretty much the same really... except for the strong arms thing.

QUOTE: " WHY DO YOU LIKE TALL MEN WITH STRONG ARMS?"

My theory: because we are genetically programmed to like tall men with strong arms, just as men are genetically programmed to like women with big boobs and broad hips.
It is instinctive and primal, and it dates back to the days when we lived in caves.
The purpose of human existence, on a primal, instinctive level, is perpetuation of the species. It is the same as the purpose of any other animal: simply to procreate.
Therefore, men are subconsciously attracted to women who appear healthy, fertile, and as if they'd be good for childbearing (broad pelvic structure) and nurturing babies (large breasts).
And likewise, women are attracted to men who look large, healthy, and strong... subconsciously they are seeking someone who can #1 make healthy babies, #2 protect and defend their offspring, and #3 provide for their families (ie, hunting).

Of course none of this is applicable anymore in today's society, where intelligence is far more important than physical strength. But I believe that subconsciously, the majority of us still select our mates based on this archaic criteria, at least to some degree.

PS this is not my own original theory; it is something I learned from Carl Sagan and my studies of cultural anthropology and the history of the species.

I agree.
Even though I would rather have a relationship with an intelligent, driven guy, I still find myself physically attracted to "tall men with strong arms" Men that I would have nothing incommon with.
Smaller guys seem insecure about this, but I would guess no more so than some of us girls do about our bra size and the supposed "sex appeal" that goes with it.
And no i would not say i understood manhood smile

hmm..
February 11, 2005 - 05:18 AM

Why do girls like tall men with big sholders? I think it has something to do with a level of security and feeling safe. Generally speaking females are looking for someone who can protect them from harm, their safe keeper. And I guess a larger 'muscular' man produces more of that safe feeling. That would also have a lot to do with why a lot of women have issues dating men shorter then them...Just as a lot of men wouldn't feel comfortable dating a girl taller then him. Maybe, men want the feeling of being in power, while woman like the feeling of knowing that someone 'has their back'. But thats just my opinion. Thanks

I have been in a few relationships - and am in one now with a lovely young Russian girl from Moscow - she does not have big breasts - frankly that is a matter of taste. I work out and proportionate to someone my size 6'0" 185 - I have pretty big arms and broad shoulders - but there are plenty of guys who are much bigger than I am - I don't find girls going for them.

Actually there are a number of other factors - such a status displays and the like.

you think about it male sex idols like Leo Dicaprio is hardly big and strong, neither is Tom Cruise - or any rock star I can think of.

Likewise it is only certain kinds of Guys that want "amazon women" - think about stars like Natalie Portman, Nicole Kidman, Penolpe Cruise.

Men may like to oogle Pamela Anderson - but not marry her.

Anyway - it just seems to me that there are girls who like jocks and football players (like my sister), and those who go for the "artistic guys"

ITS SIMPLE
May 7, 2006 - 05:19 AM

I believe it's pretty simple....Although us females are extremly stong willed, strong physically, mentally, and in all forms, we love to be protected. The thought and feeling that someone is going to protect us and keep us safe, is something women want. Women want to feel protected, and secure. Thats what I believe.

Well, i respect your all ideas and views.

What i think about manhood and womenhood is that they are an organ of contemporary society. So, the issue shouldn't be like : man with big shoulder and arms will keep you safe or woman with big breast will attract you!

There should be gender equality and women should be able to keep them safe by not thinking that they have a man with great hieght and arms. They should start protecting themselves and won't rely on man or manhood.

Women should never feel that they are weak and man should never feel that they are strong and physically fit.

The perspective should be changed in mind and the way we all think about opposite sex.

"man and women are the two sides of the coin"

Personally, it is not a prerequisite for my man to have 'strong arms'.

True, we humans are conditioned to be attracted to the most physicaly male dominant character, and men to the most physically attractive female species, but primal character can be overridden.

In todays society which comprises more independent women, it is not unusual for us to go for the new age man who is moderate in physical strength, but greatly articulate and more soft. (yes, the cavemen have evolved into creatures who nowadays prefer the finer things)

As for understanding manhood, do we actually need to? Should we design formulas and equations to get a better understanding? Is it detrimental?

Why not mull over issues of poverty and (social justice and human rights) instead?

Interesting opinions
I agree with xxxivy I think its mainly a subconscious thing. The media has played a huge role to promote that too. Like one of the signs of manhood is smoking Marlboro with his cowboy boots & horse!!
Personally I like tall men with strong arms!! Yea that was easy to predict huh, Im tall so I like my man tall too. I like strong men because they come in handy, no really I feel there should be a difference between him & I.
however that doesnt cancel intelligence, knowledge, sense of humour, responsability ...etc. People have to see beyond that physical beauty which by time will fade away.

Luke, Leo di Caprio ewww he is too girly!

" WHY DO YOU LIKE TALL MEN WITH STRONG ARMS?"

Because we want someone to carry us and hold us and hug us =D

but other than I like anyone who I can have a good conversation with...there isnt many shocked

Whats there to understand about manhood?
Everyone brains in their pants =D
haha joking!!!

I dont think anyone can understand manhood or womanhood for that matter..its just a thing that you dont simply understand.

"Would it be so hard for you to say: This is what i want: So what do You want, my dear MAN?"
we always say what we want but how often do you men listen?

Ah its late pointless rambling =D
