For the last decade, American men have been inundated with the idea that women prefer men who are in touch with their feminine side, men who are not afraid to spend a little extra time in front of the mirror, and maybe even wear a little make up to highlight the features of their face. We are told that men like John Kerry and Barack Obama are what women really want. Men who are not only unashamed of their femininity, but men who will even go so far as to display such faith in their feminism in public as Obama has time and time again.
Well, please allow me to set the record straight, because it seems that Al Gore, John Kerry, and Barack Obama are really not the type men that turn the ladies on. I found this survey from a deodorant company that inherently, just makes sense to me. I had not heard of this survey before now, but I have read numerous reports in Australian and European papers about it. I'd link you to the survey itself, if only I could find it, but like many polls and surveys it has disappeared within a few months. As I stated, most of my facts about this survey have been gleaned from information I could attain from the many articles written about the results. I must admit that I'm delighted with the findings, for me they make total sense. My guess is that the MSM would rather the men of America continue believing that women desire the kind of feminine men that currently occupy the White House. However, the way companies advertise their products proves that the following results of this survey must be true.
In an independent study commissioned by Lynx deodorant, 2800 women from 14 countries ranging from the ages of 18-34 were asked what they like in men. It turns out that 80% of women would rather have a man who is capable of being "sensitive without losing his masculinity". Women it turns out, are not much into the sensitive new-age guy who is touch with his feminine side. They want a man who can light their fires and

Yup. That's attractive.
I'd flirt, Zircon, but I've already got one at home. He's been all mine for nearly 17 years.
The lemon law expired. He can't trade me in :)
Some men are handy.
If a man is none of the above, then be wealthy enough to hire someone who is handy!
ROFL! :)
Genuine women crave kindness and strength, in as close to a 50/50 ratio as possible. God made us that way in order to ensure propagation of the species.
The "John Wayne" type masculinity makes us feel safe, and the attraction is that we feel he will bedtter protect the nest from enemies and predators.
Being a man, it’s nice to know that the effeminating of men isn’t going to be encouraged by all women. I say let the women be women and the men be men.
The fact is that real men, like farmers, cops, service members, etc., are supposed to do the work for the Lefty elites and not intrude on their snobbish world where skinny effete bodies are signs of superior sensibilities.
“Heels on the Chief”
I strongly agree with your comment. A woman I know is a Rham Emanuel pseudo-stalker. She told me she sometimes hangs out at the ballet studio where Emanuel works out hoping to get a glimpse of him.
Sometimes I feel like an alien walking around here and that I have forgotten how to phone home. RESCUE ME!
It’s actually pretty simple. What men and women both desire in a mate is exactly the same (sort of). Men want a feminine woman and woman want a masculine man. A man with some characteristics which could be seen as feminine would be attractive to women whose sexual interest include an attraction in some way toward their own sex. The same can be said for men
“...yet still understands the needs of modern-day women.”
That’s very simple. Everything. Now.
How appropriate that the article should be accompanied by a picture of Rhett Butler. I always thought that character was the very definition of masculinity.
Some men are handsome.You sound like Red Green: "If women don't find you handsome, they should at least find you handy."
Some men are handy.
If a man is none of the above, then be wealthy enough to hire someone who is handy!
That's OK. He's got kids.
Real Men will never die out.
JOHN WAYNE in a heartbeat!!
