What Do Men Want?
Men are visual creatures and it is a given that an attractive girl will definitely get their attention. When men want to get into a serious relationship, they would start thinking beyond that pretty face. They would start wondering about your personality and how you two can get along.
But it takes some eye candy to catch these guys’ attention. They may not show it readily but men like women who look good. This tells them that these women know how to take care of themselves. Here are a few things that can catch a guy’s fancy:
- A pretty face. This is the first thing they see and when they like what they see, they start paying attention. Keep your face clean and keep the make up light and simple. A guy would notice if you put on too much makeup. Most of them prefer a natural look.
- A graceful body. A well-proportioned body coupled with graceful movements is just the right mix to grab a guy’s attention. Hitting the gym once in a while and sticking to a healthy diet of fruits, grains and vegetables will help you stay fit. Keep those arms and legs toned and practice a little spring and bounce in each step.
- A nice smile and warm laugh. A nice warm smile and appreciative laugh make a woman’s face glow. A smile is always infectious and it never fails to catch a guy’s attention. A smile suggests openness and confidence. So if you want him to take a second look, flash him your brightest smile and loosen those vocal cords as you win his heart through your laughter. Show him you know how to enjoy life!
- A confident personality. Some guys like some zing in their women. They may be intrigued by such confidence and would want to know more about her. So get him to ask for your number by acting a bit more pleased with yourself.
- A positive attitude. Who wants to be with a dark and gloomy person? Men want their women strong, confident and positive. They need someone who can support them and believe in their dreams. A woman with a bright and cheerful outlook in life is a dream come true for these men.
Men and Sex
Do men have a higher sex drive than women?
Guys may spend more time thinking about women and sex. They usually start feeling this way when they are around 11 or 12 when the male sex hormone testosterone begins to surge. The high levels of testosterone lead to changes in a young man’s body preparing him to be the alpha male that he dreams to be. As his body grows and changes, he also begins to be more aggressive and his desire for sex may heightened during this time.
Women may feel that their desire for sex heightens during the middle of their cycle when they’re ovulating. During this time of the month, they may crave for some cuddling and touching. However, they may not be as aggressive as most men are when trying to express their sexual desires. Men have more intensified sex drives because of the right ingredient in the form of testosterone.
Why do men masturbate a lot?
Men have been shown to masturbate more than women. Sexual urges are felt more by younger men due to higher testosterone levels. This does not mean guys are sex maniacs. It’s natural for them to feel this way once in a while. Men may feel a bit tense when their sexual urges are not met. If they have been sexually excited and they are not able to ejaculate, they may complain of a fullness and pain in their lower tummy, get irritable and moody and even complain of headaches. Masturbation can help ease the sexual tension that comes with this. During masturbation, the milky white fluid that builds up inside the prostate gland is also released. This is good for the prostate since a build up of this fluid can make the prostate swell. With a swollen prostate, a guy will feel pain and may start urinating often. Prostate fluid may also contain substances that can actually cause prostate cancer. Release of this fluid from time to time “cleanses” the prostate by flushing these cancer-causing toxins.
My boyfriend is still a virgin. Does that mean he will have problems with sex later on?
A man may refrain from having sex because of certain reasons. It may be because he does not feel ready yet and he is aware of the responsibilities that come with sex. A guy may feel a bit self conscious if he does not feel adequate in bed. He may be shy about this and may not readily tell you. Guys are conscious of their bodies too and some of them may not feel comfortable with how they look and may wish to postpone sex till some other day when they have hit the gym and look better. Staying a virgin does not mean your guy has problems with his sexuality. Although, problems with sexual function like failure to get an erection may actually exist. You need not worry about this. Just try to be more open with your partner. If he feels ready and comfortable, he will share his thoughts and feelings with you.
