Just curious to see if this is as accurate as it’s been said to be since the beginning of time. I’ve heard both sides of it. I’ve heard with enough confidence there is no such thing and I’ve heard the opposite, that no amount of confidence will win the girl. My experience personally has always been zero so I’m on the accurate side of the statement pretty much. Any thoughts?
There are different leagues. Men typically focus on looks first then other things like personality.
Women typically look for other things first, and looks are second or third or lower depending on the woman.
A guy on a first date might think the girl is out of his league, based on looks. But the girl might think he’s out of her league due to socioeconomic standing and education/intellect or humor. Even if he’s a bit funny looking or overweight, that can actually add to his charisma if he’s little confident.
Guys think girls want gym-bod, girls actually want dad-bod. Because girls see gym-bod and think he’s a muscle-bound idiot who spends all his freetime at the gym. Dad-bod is way better because that means he’s not hyperfocused about being away from home during all his free time. Plus snuggles are nicer. Dad-bods don’t mean weaker either, just look at strong-man competitions.
Obviously this is generalized based on conversations I’ve had with my wife after reading articles or topics that arise. YMMV.
Last 20 years kinda proving this wrong tbh… Women go for looks as much as men a least for casual
When marriage is on the table looks still matter but class and status are likely more important more so for women tho
That’s fair. Could be a generational thing or an age thing too. I’m a married older millennial. I can see where a girl just looking for something casual would prioritize looks higher.
It’s a practical thing. If you have no information on someone other than their looks and general demeanor, then how else would you decide who to get to know? If you already know them enough to have a gist of their personality, then looks would probably go way down the list for both men and women.
I have a dad bod but want a fit bod in all honesty. Feels better to show when at the beach or pool
