Q4M: Do women in powerful positions turn you off sexually?

lollygagyo · 2017-03-25T01:51:19+00:00

It turns me on actually. I would enjoy the contrast of seeing someone who is normally in control turned into a wet pile of lust. Would I date such a woman? No, but only because I am a CEO of a small company and I barely have time to think about anything or anyone else. I want my partner to care about me more than her job (if she even has a job). That's would be impossible for a woman (or man) in a position like that.

Not really. Mostly I'm indifferent. Being the CEO of Microsoft doesn't make her tits and bigger or firmer. On the other hand, great tits are great tits, and if they're sitting on the CEO of Microsoft, they're still great tits.

lol, no. Career women do not turn me off sexually. Its exciting that a woman is able to thrive in a world of Man and express herself and find her own voice in a world full of guys that want to prove who has the biggest dick.

wub1234 · 2017-03-25T01:48:13+00:00

Would you ever date a female CEO?

Show me the money.

Seriously, I would date any woman of any status to whom I was attracted. But I do believe that relationships tend to work best when both parties are of relatively equal status.

wtknight · 2017-03-25T02:20:39+00:00

The status of a woman doesn't make me perceive her differently sexually one way or another. It depends upon what her personality is like.

reepbot · 2017-03-25T02:21:27+00:00

It depends on how they use their power.

DaThrowaway808 · 2017-03-25T03:00:27+00:00

Doesn't bother me at all.

YetAnotherCommenter · 2017-03-25T04:43:54+00:00

Are we talking about someone with power over me specifically or power over others?

Now, if she's an evil hateful manipulative shrew, well frankly I play System Shock so I can kill women like that. And men like that are no better.

CEO/corporate position? I'm indifferent to that. Its certainly not a turnoff.

FairlyNaive · 2017-03-25T07:52:06+00:00

Is she hot tho?

[deleted] · 2017-03-25T10:15:57+00:00

Nope, doesn't turn me off in the slightest. It doesn't affect sexual attraction at all. As long as they don't want to dominate me in the bedroom I'm good.

[deleted] · 2017-03-25T10:54:00+00:00

Do women in powerful positions turn you off sexually?

No. As long as she is submissive to me I don't care. If anything it makes it hotter for the reason /u/mtndewlover said. A girl who is usually super powerful but melts for me? That's a lovely thing.

[deleted] · 2017-03-25T02:11:37+00:00

No, it makes me want to conquer. Like nail her and temporarily remind her that she's a woman so she can get back to being a powerful person after.

Where it's a turn-off is more that I probably wouldn't want to date them because I'm not equal to them at all

MustNotFfff · 2017-03-25T02:55:05+00:00

Usually. Because they have huge egos. Women do not realize that man do not find them more attractive because of their career or personal accomplishments. Men care about looks and personality, when it comes to attraction. Career success is impressive, but not in a sexual way.

Not if they got there on their own, and weren't "leaned" in. A brainy and competent woman is a turn on.

However, that is as far as it would go. Given that I have a high stress job, such a person wouldn't be a good fit for me.

[deleted] · 2017-03-25T07:07:00+00:00

Yes, as that woman will have an inflated ego.

SeemedGood · 2017-03-25T08:21:08+00:00

I think a woman's corporate-position, job, career, etc is irrelevant to most of us. We aren't hypergamous and most of us aren't intimidated by women (despite what some women want to think in order to perpetuate their victimhood status). What we do care about is a woman's vitality and feminine strength and some careers can simply devastate both in a woman.

I spent most of my career working on fixed-income trading floors and we had a term for women who had spent more than a few years in that environment - "bond-hag." Imagine taking an attractive 23 year old woman who decides to become a high-volume prostitute and enjoys a successful career as such for 15 years then quits. Put her in a $2mm apartment, giver her a $400k wardrobe, a $1.5mm bank account and a $100k car. She's only 38, but she probably looks like she's 50 and has no soul left - a walking skeleton ('cause she'll have stayed thin due to an eating disorder). That's what 10 years on a trading floor will do to a woman, turn her into a bond-hag. (Link: NSFW) For those of you who can't follow the link, it's not a pretty picture.

Investment-banking isn't as harsh on women, but it too has deleterious effects on them. My wife was a banker for six years before she stopped to become a mother and raise our children, and it was taking a toll on her. Not only did she regain a ton of femininity after devoting herself to the work of motherhood, but she also became a much stronger woman - both of which resulted in a significant increase in my sexual attraction to her.

[deleted] · 2017-03-25T08:27:24+00:00

Innately no, but generally the personality is a turn off.

KrispyMcSockington · 2017-03-25T10:41:31+00:00

The career is great and all, but if she doesn't have time for the relationship or she has a terrible attitude (independent woman who doesn't need a man) then no. Her career status is a bonus but primarily she needs to stay in some attractive shape, be pleasant to be around (don't be a bitch) and be enthusiastic when it's sexytime.

IIHotelYorba · 2017-03-25T11:31:06+00:00

Nah she's still a girl.

EchoZeroEleven · 2017-03-25T20:10:25+00:00

It sorta turns me off, but not in any sort of manner that actually makes me perceive her to be sexually unattractive.

I just no longer view her as sexual, despite her appearance, beautiful or not.

I'm more apt to look to her as a leader, and I feel no need to sleep with the leadership.

[deleted] · 2017-03-25T20:13:13+00:00

Not me. I used to stories from the White House news claiming that Hillary took it over "lock, stock and barrel" as FLOTUS. And Hillary at that point made to my #1 spot and booted Jackie O out as most beautiful FLOTUS. I used to love how hateful and riled up everyone with hate and she didn't give a rats behind.

And I mean the "ice queen" Sharon Stone-esque years when she had the white house decorated in the blues (95-96 when he was running again). They did a special there. And after Monica Lewinsky she was smirking at him thinking, "soon..." I was in shock as to why he chose Monica over her.

She was not just the trophy wide she was the one that the UN sent to China for that speech or who was Obama's bulldog as Sec. of State. Now I am not a fan of everything political on either side but we all know he picked her just to say to world leaders, "well, I am sorry you disagree with me. Hillary will be over.. " She kind of got that "war queen" reputation now after the Qaddafi thing. But FLOTUS Hillary is the best to me.

I secretly hoped for a "Hillary/Liz Warren/Pelosi" thing. And I am apolitical but just the rush I would feel. I like dominant women but live submissive guys. The impact THREE women in charge would have done. Better than any Femdom I can dream up.

On the one hand, my wife is CEO of a business she built from the ground up. She's toiled, fought and clawed for everything she's got up to and including myself. She jokes about being clearly not a vampire, because she was staked once and she didn't die. She orders, others obey. Come to think about it, she could be a good poster child for feminism if not for the little detail of her disdain for certain nutty parts hijacking the movement.

On the other hand, a woman with the position and influence to do so screwed me thoroughly. A petty, spoiled princess whose ego couldn't withstand the idea of a worm like me to comment on her beauty. If I ever were to dramatically profess my hate to someone, that would be her.

So power and ambition do nothing for my libido; at most, they amplify personality traits which, in turn, arouse or enrage me.

[deleted] · 2017-03-25T21:59:51+00:00

If I work with them yeah. If not, not really as long as they know how to switch it off in their downtime .

HumanSockPuppet · 2017-03-25T22:38:48+00:00

No. The masculine personality traits that got her there do.

williesmokes · 2017-03-26T02:59:59+00:00

No. It's very sexy when a woman can work hard and succeed opposed to crying about it being a man's world and resorting to giving up and making spiteful Internet posts about it.

SmeggingRight · 2017-03-26T05:35:39+00:00

Seeing as women in those high positions would be older and out of my age group, yea, I'm not attracted.

Ask me again when I'm older, too.

Entropy-7 · 2017-03-26T06:32:14+00:00

All things being equal, it would be a turn-on, but rarely would it be equal because certain personality traits come with achieving positions of power.

funkless_eck · 2017-03-26T09:25:35+00:00

Some would argue that whether or not you are turned on by something shouldn't have any bearing on a person's work environment.
