What do women like better, macho tough guys or sophisticated gentlemen?

I'd prefer sophisticated gentlemen. Physical appearance can only last so long but fine attitude and personality will definitely last much longer.

it depends upon how the man can deal with it. but i think a man with a loving heart, caring, understanding, faithful, loyal, honest, tidy in terms of his outfits, fresh looking, one woman man, and relationship oriented. if you have this all, then you can easily atract a woman

well i like the sensitive guys who are funny but  I like a strong guy who is serious 2.. It has 2 be a combination  for the different moods people get. Every guy is all those thing some just show a different side  to the ones they love. Mine shows all of them which is what makes him so special to me  but best thing is combination of all of them and showing one side @ a time to see which one fits them best.

Guy:\n\nSomeone who is independent, enjoys and appreciates life genuinely. Someone who is secure with himself (not in the macho-sense, but in the self-accepting sense).\nSomeone who likes women. (Someone who doesn't see women as the ultimate goal to achieve and works to attain her, but rather takes delight in her as a person and chooses to be with her)\nSomeone who WILL not revolve his life around hers.\nSomeone who WILL not allow himself to be led by her.\n\nBottom line: A woman wants a man who can be the one to take her along for the ride and not the way around.\n\n^ If you need clarification to that last line, just ask.\n\nAnyhow, everything I described above is the source of attraction. That's why there's those people that seem to raise attention when they enter a room. \n.

Women look for protection and maturity from men . They find these 2 qualities in older men .

An honest, mature, faithful man is what most women like.

The two are not mutually exclusive.  There are other attributes in women men appreciate such as kindness, intelect, talent, humor, poise, the list continues....

We want them to have intelligence, more intelligence than we have.  We love women who don't look like they spent 23 hours and 45 minutes woking on their wardrobe, and hair.  We want a woman who has a life outside of guys, shopping, and friends (like reading, writing, drawing, painting, working out, etc.)  We want a woman, who knows her strengths, her weaknesses, her faults, who knows who she is how sexy she is, but at the same time never verbally owns up to it.  This, what I describes for you, is a real woman.

Humor - a guy has to make me laugh, and be able to laugh at himself, or at least not take himself too seriously.  My boyfriend is really funny, and everywhere we go, he can make people laugh...even angry grocery store clerks.  Intelligence is equally important - including overall knowledge of what's going on in the world, politics, and also problem solving skills, objectivity.  Caring about other people is also a big one - compassion and eagerness to help others by volunteering or just helping someone with directions.  And with all of this, he's got to be "manly" - as stereotypical as that sounds, I like a guy that isn't too emotional, is physically strong, knows how to fix stuff around the house, and helps me do things that are easier for him - like carry heavy luggage, etc... \n\nI just realized that I've described my boyfriend perfectly...so I'm suddenly very happy to realize what I have!  Thanks for asking!

women have more heart than men. they are soft, caring and god loving. not like men , we are tough, cruel, more practical and strict. That's why men are great leaders than women. a good example is queen Cleopatra of Egypt, who fell in love with Marcus Aurelius of Rome.

I agree. Let men be men I say. Sexy, virile, stubbly, messy men. With big hands.

most important....a great sense of humor..I can't handle a guy who doesn't have one..\n\nalso, I like guys who are witty...smart...I don't mean book smart, though that's ok too, I mean someone who can figure things out..that I don't have to explain everything to..someone who loves his family...is good to his friends, loves animals..someone who believes in being faithful...compassionate, loving...

to me a perfect guy will be:\n1-intelligent\n2-humourous\n3-assertive\n4-kind/sensitive\n5-romantic\n\ni could go on but i think they cover the generic wishes of women.  As for looks every woman has her idealistic look but usually ends up  with something completely different.  Personality will always win over looks but women do appreciate a man who grooms, makes an effort and has good personal hygiene.  If in doubt be urseld cos we love confidence, never be fake. and u know what if she doesnt appreciate what uv got or tries to change u - go find someone who'll love u for what u are. good luck in love.

I cannot speak for most of the women out here, but what i like is a guys personality and they have to have a good careing heart. Maturity also plays a factor. The way they look and dress is not that all important, you have some people that are less fortunate than others. Hey some of the women are not up to par themselves. That's basically what i look for. Even if they are less fortunate, still i like a man thats very clean about his hygiene. They also have to show me respect, and treat me like the woman that i am. They also have to have a sense of humor.
