Both but mostly prettier.

 

Like he has better hair than you do, his eyes sparkle.

 

And he doesn't need makeup.

So...he's Edward Cullen? No, I'd get a mother****ing wooden stake.

No because pretty is very feminine. I'm not into like burly football player guys, but I'm also not into feminine guys. A pretty guy prob has really swishy hair and wears skinny jeans. lol. No thanks.

If he wears make up he is not a man.

I have dated and married a better looking woman, than average but it was because they were intelligent, sweet and funny not because of the looks department. I always made fun of how super pretty girls do not get asked out by nice guys just players and such.

 

Now I have 2 sons who are "Off the scale" handsome and they cant date women because they get so nervous and weird so they are being asked out by older women and wild ones!!!

I cant put a pic of them here they would kill me but it would be fair to say that Robert Pattinson would be like the ugly brother to them ( teh older actually is kind of like Robert Pattinson )....

 

But back to topic.... yep if they are smart, funny and intelligent there is no problem if they are pretty too... (but it takes a secure guy to have that kind of women)

Don't really care if he just happens to have a feminine face.

 

If he puts a lot of time and effort into looking feminine (long shiny hair, makeup etc), then yeah, huge turn off.

I don't know a single woman who likes an effeminate man.

Exactly. I'll just be with a woman if that's what I want at that time. Being bisexual is awesome.

Some women will marry a man who's prettier...right up to and including a cross dresser or drag queen.

 

A prime public person who's a good example of that would be Alexandra Billings. She is a male to female transgender woman, non-operative who has a wife and I think three children. All of that happened after testing positive for HIV way back in the early 90's. I've actually met this person in person a couple times and we have mutual real life and FB friends. She is a real peach in person.

 

She is on the lower left of this picture back in the I think 1980's or early 90's.

 

Chicago Gay History

Married, to a woman who was a long time friend since highschool, since 1995.

 

This is one good example of an out transgender woman, who performed as a drag queen, who's wife knowing everything still married them. This is more common than you think. Even among people who were "closeted" before being married to women then came out as CD TG or even TS better than half stay married or find other relationships once they are out.

 

What does this have to do with the original question.

 

If a man who can dress as a woman, and pass well enough to be taken for a woman can marry a woman so can a man who's just "pretty".

 

If a transgender woman who's somewhat attracted to women, can marry a woman, so can a man who's just pretty.

 

These things won't be every woman's cup of tea. Weather your pretty, ugly, short, tall, fat, thin, or whatever you only need to be one woman's cup of tea in a lifetime.

 

There isn't a biological male on this earth who is every single woman's type.

 

TL;DR. YES. Furthermore, just stop worrying about what "most" women like you aren't trying to have sex with the whole world.

Sure, if you're a girl.

Read the above. No judgement on you but perhaps you need to try to get to know some non-straight, non-gender conforming people as people. We don't bite.

 

Edited to add I wrote a really detailed post about just such a person here.

Of course some of them do. Statements like these are the reason why so many boys who don't necessarily fit some narrow masculinity norm created by society are being bullied growing up.

 

Look at the music industry for example, lots of pop and rock stars are very effeminate looking and yet have millions of girls and women sexually attracted to them. Same goes for male models. I'm into figure skating and a great number of the male skaters are feminine looking and/or gay and most of their female fans would sleep with them in a second. I have female friends who find the more masculine looking men a lot less attractive than an androgynous boyish looking guy. The less extreme examples are all the "metrosexual" men and a lot of them are famous actors, footballers etc. Then you have all the hipster/indie/goth/emo type of guys. It also depends on the culture - in countries like Japan or Korea it's actually the desired physical ideal for men. And even if you go to Italy for example a lot of the guys would be considered feminine by American standards and I don't think they have any trouble finding girls.

 

Everybody should look and be what they feel is comfortable to them, being happy in your own skin is the biggest turn on and gives you charisma. People are attracted to so many different things so I don't see why men should strive to be someone they're not just because "no women will want to be with them otherwise" when that's not even true.

Prettier?

Um

 

U wanna rephrase urself?

Posted
Just curious.

 

Well, real question is, does he love me? Do I? Then yes, I would

Posted

I'm going to repeat myself.

 

*I* don't know a single woman who likes an effeminate man.

 

I never said NO women do. I just don't know any.

Posted

No. I'm married.

 

Hahaha, I'm funny, too!

 

Yes, I loved to date a pretty man. In my wild youth in the music scene there were plenty of men prettier than most of us girls - they wore makeup if they wanted, too - and they had their pick of the ladies around.

Posted

I am not into feminine men. So no.

Posted

I lived with a cross-dresser for 2 1/2 years and damned if he didn't look better in make-up with his hair done than me.

 

 

 

I am serious.

I dont think women who are average or above average would have a problem with it but the really pretty women dont want competition. I dont think women want to go out with a guy who constantly has check himself out in the mirror.
