Guys, is it important for you to be macho for the woman / man in your life ? As you develop in a relationship, do you find yourself becoming more "new age" ? Personally, you take you as you find me and I don't change, but many of my male friends are macho at the start of their relationships... but suddenly lose it as they get into the comfort zone. Seems like us guys have the image first, and then the real thing. Do you think women prefer macho when they meet you the first time ?
i would have no clue about what women want in a man, nor can i rember being macho at the start of my relationship. if you would like an idea about what women like about men, go to this site http://www.hipforums.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=40.
I don't think women know what they prefer. They just go for pre-conceived notions of status for the most part. Anyway, I'm not beyond some banter. But I'm mostly uncomfortable with macho. My brand of masculinity is closer to the tragic than the socially prescribed.
The strange thing is that here in Ireland, women want a macho solvent guy..... but want to be best friends with the most effeminate gay men possible
i dont even know what ya mean by macho but in a relationship i'm just the way i am, from beginning to end i cant tell ya what women want cause some just dont know what they want, and every 1 wants something slightly different if a girl likes ya she likes ya for who you are, not for any act ya put on for her benifit..if ya are macho, whatever that means then be macho and a girl whos into that will be into you, if your not thenwhy try to be/ cause no matter what way u are, there will be some who are into guys just like u i always laugh at these is it important to be.... threads cause theres only 1 important thing to be...yourself
:agree: macho is normally used in a negative way. I think most women want a strong, masculine man but the finer points of attraction are greatly varied.
No, women dont prefer macho men. I personally like guys that can be my friends. I wouldnt even start a relationship with someone who is über macho. In that way, if he shows his macho side later in relationship, I ll be more than impressed. But guys shouldnt be too emotional either. I cant stand that.
i figure i am the way i am. if any woman wants me for that.. im all for it. That's one thing i cant stand when talking to girls - we flirt and what not, become an item... then a couple of weeks down the road shes someone completely different from when we first met! it gets annoying.
I'll take that as an invitation . Macho is good in the sense that a man should be a man. Masculine, yes. Not a brute though.
