Do Women Care About Looks?
This question confuses many guys because of the presence of contradicting facts. When guys read researches that explain what attracts women to men, they find financial resources, personality, and ambition on top of the list; however, when they deal with women, they find them chasing good-looking guys, and that’s it!
So how can this mystery be explained?
Research says that women are attracted to the most resourceful men because of the need for protection, and the desire to have a man who can take care of the offsprings is a hard-wired biological drive in women.
On the other hand, you find women talking about how amazing a certain man looks, and you find others madly in love with movie heroes just because they look good.
What’s going on in here?
Here is the explanation
Most women care about looks but not as much as men do, except for those who have low self-esteem because in such a case, they would want to prove that they can get a good-looking man.
Most women will get attracted to the resourceful man more than they get attracted to the good-looking man. Still, because looks are the first thing to be noticed, many women chase attractive men just because they don’t recognize resourceful ones.
In other words, if a handsome man and an average-looking man with high status went to a public place, then the handsome man will catch the attention of women first; however, if the high-status man managed to communicate his status, then most women will go for him.
Women chase attractive men because average-looking men don’t market their status and resources well. Of course, it’s much easier for the attractive man to get initial interest simply because his best is written on his face.
As for the resourceful man, his chance might be way better if he managed to demonstrate his status in a good way.
How can a man market himself?
Women get attracted to resourceful men, confident ones, and Alpha males. A resourceful man isn’t necessarily the one who has the money, but he can have the resources that can help him get the money one day.
An average-looking man must market these traits correctly to realize his full potential. Else, the woman will compare based on what she can see (looks), and he will lose the comparison.
In brief, women do care about looks, but there are other things they care about, and in most cases, those other things carry more weight than looks. However, when a woman can see nothing but looks because of poor marketing strategies that the average-looking man uses, the best-looking man will win.
