Do you think women are attracted to men without good looks?

I had more women hit on me than guys even though I am gay.

Oh absolutely. Women are a lot less visual than men. But being decent looking doesn’t hurt either.

It’s possible. Not all women are looking for a pretty face. My husband is the most handsome man I’ve ever met, but my friends don’t find him attractive. They’re CRAZY! He is a perfect manifestation of the perfect male!

Maybe it’s because I don’t have any fears around women and tend to prefer them as friends.

Nope. I assure you, we are very visual!

For me, personally, though, a less good looking man will become good looking based on other traits. This is where men might differ. IME – and only mine – they put looks as a top priority.

It might mean that you are physically attractive. Take it as a compliment!!

Thanks speedy. Some of you have seen my picture, and I am not very attractive.

Well I haven’t seen your picture. I doubt that you are not attractive if women have been hitting on you. Women have never hit on me! :frowning:

It’s ok. I’m trying to improve myself so perhaps someone will like me.

It also may be the fact that you aren’t pushing for any kind of sexual contact and that can be refreshing for many women, also you may be more open to your feelings and willing to share them than most straight men

Yes.

Some women like pretty boys but generally speaking I don’t think they are as superficial as men when it comes to looks, in fact a study suggests women are happier with less attractive men…

Certain people outgrow those kinds of vanities.

It’s certainly possible, I ended up with an attractive woman.

I can honestly say I’ve never found myself all that attractive.

True, I’m not sexually attractive to women. I did have sex with a woman when I was 19 and still a virgin. I was more attractive when I was younger than now that I am 62.

One straight woman I’m friends with kinda likes me sexually, but she has a boyfriend already. She’s 60 and I am 62, while her boyfriend is in his 50’s. She probably thinks I haven’t noticed.

From what she has said, he doesn’t always satisfy her. She didn’t say that directly though. She said some of the stuff he likes hurts her arthritis, but that was after I said the same thing about the boyfriend I had last winter. It’s not hard to figure out if it hurts it isn’t usually satisfying unless you are sadistic.

Sorry I can tell, but that’s just me. I always like to make sure my partner is happy.

Yo same. Ive even hooked up with a girl in a swimming pool when i was really drunk, but never got anything like that with a guy. I think it’s just because women are more sexually forward than gay men. If you’re very straight-presenting like me, that’s probably a big part of it.

That’s true we used to call it straight acting, but I’m not sure if that’s an offensive term now.

You wouldn’t know that my friend is gay unless he told you which is what he did with me. I didn’t have a clue he was gay too.
