And don't think I'm ugly...On the contrary, I' m quite bored by all men's compliments about my exterior aspect...But are not men able to go beyond..?
Is it possible that when men discover that behind the "angel's face" that attracted them so much there's a strong and assertive character they finish to escape like rats...?
Is it possible that the dialogue between sexes has to be reduced to "Me Tarzan, you Jane"....?????

Intelligence in a woman is very attractive, I think.

But in some woman it is combined with a kind of hardness and arrogance, which I find absolutely detestable.

Why the question not to be simple in conveying the meaning stright, to seek the answer meaningful to the measure you desire?
If I had understood correctly, you are beautiful, they make comment on your body features, which you didn't like! You ask why they can't go beyond! Beyond what? why you feel that they would run away if they know your assertive character? To top them all, you made the last line asking something really funny! Why we have to reduce or stop the talks between genders and on what grounds?
The man and woman are complimentary to each other by way of natural selection through evolution for millions of years of human living on Earth! It is impossible to stop the love and attraction to each other and hence there cannot be simplified
procedure for knowing each other! You must develop your attitude to accept and get along with people who likes you!

A very biased question to begin with. If a man finds a woman attractive and a woman finds a man attractive but only the man has guts to compliment the woman, does that make him shallow?

The likely answer is no. Depending on the kind of men you meet and attract, some may be afraid of intelligent or semi intellignet women, but it would be unfair to stereotype men in general. For example I am only attracted to women who are intellignet.

There are two kinds of men who don't mind a woman being intelligent.
1. Men with no will of their own.
2. Men who are intelligent and want more than something to look at, but also want someone to discuss things and get ideas from the women.
Only the 1st group is going to let you "rule the roost". the 2nd group will probably not mind assertiveness as long as it is the kind that stands up when you think a mistake is being made but not the type where you are trying to be the boss.
Other than that, most men want someone who is unintelligent because they are unintelligent and want to look intelligent.
Only stupid men need to be with stupid women.
Only weak men need to be with weak women.

I am a man and I do like assertive women. I like to discuss intellectual topics and, unlike most of the men you've met, I am actually close to finishing an associates degree in general studies within a week. Pretty soon I'll be on my way to earning a masters degree in chemistry as well as a masters degree in business. There are many people in the world who are like me, perhaps you just haven't looked in the right place.

Here. Since you set the framework for your query in the realm of generalities of large groups, I will go there and speak for ALL men, by making all men images of myself, hows that.

I am attracted to the outside of women first. Women are generally hot. I like that. It gets me excited, probably like shopping or talking with girlfriends excites you, not sure there though.

Intelligent women will keep my interest as attractive women can only get my attention. I will always consider intelligent women as sexual partners regardless of appearance as it is a huge turn on to mesh with a mind as well as a heart.

As far as a relationship goes it would have to be an intelligent woman who I also found attractive.

I think focusing on the physical is a lifestyle choice and can also be a symptom of a lack of development or a different set of priorities. None of these things are bad by definition but can be thought of as bad by the person excluded from them.

Now arrogance is a turn off though which is what I feel coming off of you. That is when someone feels they are superior to others and they promote that idea when in actuality they are not superior by measurable criteria.

I cite your use of 'rat' and 'bored of compliments' and 'angels face'. It is quite one thing to say that someone has an angels face. It is another to say you have an angels face yourself.

Further your thesis is fixed question which supposes superiority and generality, all of which intelligent people do not do. They do not do those things because those things are ignorant.

The only way this could be intelligent would be if you intentionally masqueraded as an arrogant débutante in order to be rebuked in hopes of finding an intelligent rebuke and hence, find what you are looking for, a intelligent man whom you will no doubt have to decide whether he is attractive or not.

Cheers!

they're probably not on your maturity level...but not all guys are like that.....

they get scared of how strong and independent the woman is, since they probably expect the woman to be a damsel in distress that is always vulnerable....but that's just me......

my dad is one of those guys that's looking for a strong and intelligent woman that can hold her own from time to time....so not all guys are like....maybe you're attracting the wrong type of guys


try reading "The Manual" by Steve Santagati
it tells you about men from the man's point of view....it's a manual about men for women

hi claj- moderation is the key to success. If you overplay any personal asset - beauty, intellect, appearance - it tends to turn people away as they may suspect arrogance / a desperation to be noticed. So i agree - perhaps don't overdo the intellectual debate bit on the first meeting - hone up your social intelligence skills for the first couple of meetings perhaps? Hope that helps.

I'm not a betting man by nature, but I'm saying it's a safe bet that your emotional roller-coaster takes you to a spot from time-to-time where you feel like a good healthy work-out with a Tarzan would definitely help you with whatever you're dealing with! Baby.

isnt it the same for women? the first thing most people look at is appereance and not the personality of that person. When you meet someone you started to talk to them just because or was it some type of attraction..

men and women do the same thing..dont act like you dont
