Yeah, I think different men look for different appearances in women at different times. Some guys like tiny bodies, others like dramatic curves, others like a little fluff, others like a hard body athlete, etc. And because it's a relationship, the person and personality inside the body can become even more important (and sexier) than the appearance. And then there's just a quick fling, where maybe the standards are a little different from what a guy would want otherwise. Either way, most men aren't nearly as picky about female appearance as they seem to tell their wives or girlfriends. And that's fine - they're not animals who can't control themselves.

Most men universally do seem to find a relaxed, low key type who seems unlikely to flip emotionally to be appealing. I think that's a lot of Kate Upton ' s appeal. Although she has the same body type as Leticia Casta to me, and both got the same response from men even though LC is definitely not the American girl next door.

It's funny, the things that men will admit to a platonic friend vs what they've been trained to tell their gfs/wives. I brought up this Kate Upton debate to my bf and he automatically defaulted to "you're way hotter"... Like dude, relax. You're not in trouble, and we can have a conversation about another woman without me flipping out.

Most men aren't super picky but I have definitely seen enough of them sitting around the table with their guy friends dissecting a woman just like females do.

My bf would pick Kate Upton apart. I think she's hot but she's completely not his type. He 'hates' blondes apparently. She's definitely not someone all guys find hot. I've been on male dominated forums where the guys are horrible to her.

I know, right? I've never met a guy who doesn't pour it on kind of thick and a different side comes out after a few beers with the guys (and any women there who act like one of the guys). In a way it's good - you want him to realize when saying something would be hurtful or disrespectful, and a lot is just stuff I wouldn't want to know about my husband. But I also assumed all women knew that men did this and took their guy's opinions with a grain of salt and have been shocked to learn that's not the case at all. Like one of my best friend is always saying that she was her husband's first real relationship (they met when he was 34) and he never liked blondes before her (she's the quintessential peaches - and cream southern blond belle) and he doesn't like porn, etc. But I've been to happy hours where he and my husband and their friends are on a roll and it's all total bull. But I guess this way they are both happy? To each their own, I guess. I grew up with brothers and male cousins and their friends and mostly-boy classrooms, and forget that not everyone was that - lucky? Cursed? Lol!
 
That is so true. Men have two very different faces. One around the wife/girlfriend and one alone. I've had ample time studying this phenomenon at work happy hours or traveling. Of course there is this unspoken code of silence among coworkers so the S.O.'s never find out.

1. Agree with the whole no one body type when it comes to actually guys. Ideals pushed by the media/fashion different story.

2. I like the white dress and blazer look.

3. I finally figured out what bugs me about her look. It's the eyebrow. Cindy Crawford's eye brows drive me bananas as well. Yes I fully admit I'm weird, but I have a thing about eyebrows. It's not just restricted to models or females either in the past I turned down dates from guys based on the same thing. Shallow maybe but true.

Yes. Men can be ruthless and are incredibly picky, they know what they like. She's not universally attractive. Some of the things men say about her face and body are just...:push:

They'll say that about a women..about a 'type' they aren't usually attracted to, until she's flirting and batting her eyes at them...
men are suckers for who ever is in front of them, smiling and giving them her attention..
their 'type' will change depending on how available the girl is making herself to them..it gives them the illusion they have a chance..
she comes across as flirty and approachable..
and someone that would feed a man's ego.
She may physically not be everyman's type, but IMO
the majority of men like this type personality..
add big boobs and model into the equation and
it's hard to imagine a guy turning her down in real life
because she isn't his type.
What he says on forum's and to his GF is another story..

Lol, totally agree with you! I would never underestimate the power an attractive woman has over men, whether or not she's his "type" generally speaking. Most men's type boils down to an attentive, flirty woman. Sad, but true.
 
This is so funny to me that some of you women are so absolutely positive about how men "work" and how they lie to their gf's/wives. You must have some real honest guys in your lives, or serious hang ups, that a husband or boyfriend wouldn't feel comfortable being up front w you about a female model! Lol!! That's ridiculous. Instead of generalizing and saying all men are the same, take it for what it is and understand that all men are NOT the same, just like all women aren't.

My DH and I have been together since high school, but he never dated a blonde girl no matter how much she "threw herself" at him. He doesn't find blondes attractive just like lablewhore04's bf doesn't. Not all men are that transparent and weak.

I'm not saying this as a direct attack on either of you ladies; however, it's getting a little annoying that when coming into this thread nothing is really being talked about that pertains to Kate personally, it's all about how everyone is sooooooo sure how men view her. To me, she's not attractive. Esp now that she's gained some weight bc I think her figure is very odd and not at all modelesque. That's my opinion and I would wager to say that it's just as many other ppl's opinions (male and female), as well.

Not everyone thinks Angelina is gorgeous, Scarlett, Jen Aniston, etc, but these ridiculous debates over what men think and how other women don't like them is because of our own "jealousy"! Lmao...please.

Wow..
Im thrilled you have all men figured out as well, especially given your vast experience with only one man.:smile1:

Everyone's entitled to their opinion, mine is based on 30 years of dating. I do agree that ALL men aren't 'weak and transparent',
I'd say 85% are, and predictably so.

I don't think all men lie to their girlfriends, about their taste in women anyway. I'm saying what they say can change depending on what's in front of them and how available she is to them.
A women's taste can change as well..

I stand by my opinion, on topic, about Kate Upton.
Attractive, or not, she is approachable and gives out a positive vibe and I think these qualities are pretty cross
the board appealing to men (and women), no matter what hair color preference or 'type' a guy has..
