This sub is all negativity and debate. Post what you admire, appreciate, and enjoy about the opposite sex.

Bubbly_Pension4020 · 2024-05-10T20:22:56+00:00

This is going to get push back from my fellow men, but I find that women tend to be a lot less rigid and dogmatic in their thinking than men, and I prefer discussing new ideas with women for that reason.I know I know, church ladies, and radfems, but amongst normies I’ve found this to be generally true.

So far most of the positive statements about women are just about sex and relationships.

Barneysparky · 2024-05-10T21:49:34+00:00

We think husband has long covid.

Back when we were newlyweds( 25 years ago), we watched the movie Boxing Helena. After I said to him that I kinda want to do that to him. I also used to say to him " you know, it's totally OK if you want to quit your job and we could just hang out in bed all day".

Today I walked into the bedroom after and saw him reading in bed again. I smiled.

He came out later and I said to him," remember the movie boxing helena, my dreams have come true".

He's my person. I don't "value" people based on their sex, I value who adds joy to my life.

BrainMarshal · 2024-05-10T22:11:17+00:00

I found a diamond in the giant landfill that was the Gen-X dating scene. Smart, ambitious and ride or die. I feel so sorry for Zoomers that Tinder hit your world like a nuclear holocaust.

Professional-Yam601 · 2024-05-10T21:45:54+00:00

In my experience, if I want to be calmed down and given realistic advice I’ll go to one of my guy cousins or my boyfriend. If I want to cry and wallow and just be supported/ hyped up I’ll go to my girl friends.

Gotta have a well rounded support system 😂

Lift_and_Lurk · 2024-05-10T20:08:36+00:00

Sometimes when I’m drifting off to sleep I’ll feel my wife whisper to me “I still fucking love you, so much!” And it’s the best feeling in the world.

bzl33 · 2024-05-10T21:06:34+00:00

women are more thoughtful if they like you (not even in a romantic sense)

Fast_Stick_1593 · 2024-05-10T22:02:52+00:00

I admire soo much the kindness and caring nature of my fiancé. Her kindness, her love for animals like I have, she goes above and beyond to make sure I feel content and she’s beautiful with or without makeup on.

I’m sure most girls are like that with their partners too. My fiancé is 29 weeks pregnant and will be a fantastic mother. Her and I are great with kids.

MongoBobalossus · 2024-05-10T21:02:32+00:00

I like how soft my old lady’s skin is. Mine is so rough, but she always feels like she just slipped out of a bathtub of lotion.

Flightlessbirbz · 2024-05-10T23:50:22+00:00

I appreciate that male profs and bosses tended to be more relaxed and less likely to nitpick and micromanage, and I also like that men are less likely to notice and judge me negatively for being and little weird and messy. I’m neurodivergent and was homeschooled, and in the past I had a hard time making female friends since girls/women are more perceptive of when you are a little different. It’s not malicious usually, just natural. My only female friend in college was an immigrant, and I’m sure it’s because she was different too. I’ve since met a lot of weird and wonderful women, and do prefer to have female, gay male, and nonbinary friends, since often straight men end up wanting a romantic/sexual relationship. This is usually not malicious either, just causes issues.

Of course these are all just generalizations, there’s a lot of individual variation. There are men I like and don’t like, and women I like and don’t like.

superlurkage · 2024-05-10T21:06:58+00:00

Giving, generous men are rare but awesome, and so much more effective than women. Because rare

Male skill/innovation is the best

Stupid male humor is great in small amounts

And the way most men prioritize themselves should be emulated by women. They don’t make a big deal of it, but also don’t apologize or rationalize

Adventurous-Fox-62 · 2024-05-10T20:56:46+00:00

I don't get along with guys well. Men are extremely closeted and man-to-man emotional talk is a unicorn thing.

Almost all, maybe all even of my good friends are women and girls. I appreciate them a lot. They're all absolute queens and I love being a part of their lives and they like to be part of mine too.

Girls are awesome. They're soft and nice. And they smell good. Hope I'll find one I could call mine soon enough.

envious1998 · 2024-05-10T22:00:14+00:00

I like how women tend to be better caregivers than men. They also tend to be better coordinators of activities, whether that be study groups or a night out it’s usually my female friends that are the ones figuring things out beforehand and I appreciate that about them.

Hydra-Sagaria · 2024-05-11T00:42:49+00:00

I still see ALOT of people bitchin a bout the opposite gender by saying offhanded stuff

M3taBuster · 2024-05-10T21:44:56+00:00

I like that women are less prone to physical violence... like, by an insane margin.

I'm astronomically more likely to be randomly attacked by another man just going about my day than by a woman. (Nb4 anyone says anything tho, I'm even more likely to be attacked by a bear if I encounter one).

Also, the silver lining of women being so picky and less visual is that if you somehow manage to find one that likes you, she's not gonna be as tempted to fuck every decent looking stranger she sees, and thus likely to be more loyal (compared to men). It's like the saying goes "men are easy to get but hard to keep, and women are hard to get but easy to keep".

HolidayInvestigator9 · 2024-05-10T22:28:38+00:00

im glad the women i know IRL are actually chill and empathetic. if they acted like the average conceited woman on ppd acting like every man was delusional while they themselves have the perfect pure perspective of objective truth id definitely be MGTOW.

seriously yall if your only interaction with women is on this sub please get out more. its not healthy interacting with these people as your only perspective on how women are. if your views towards women are already negative enaging and taking the women here seriously is one of the worst things you can possibly do to yourself

aslfingerspell · 2024-05-10T23:00:15+00:00

I love how women support each other, or at least more often than men do each other. I get that it's not always a "sisterhood" and women can be vicious to each other too, but the point is that there's a lot of support amongst a lot of tearing down, whereas us men seem to either be mildly friendly at best towards each other.

Straight women can have the kind of emotional and even physical intimacy that men wouldn't expect from anyone short of someone they're married to. I've seen straight female friendships that have left me wondering if they were closeted lesbians, whereas I practically wouldn't dare hold hands with even my closest male companions.

I love how socially aware women are. Having to do "emotional labor" is a burden, but at least it's something they're really good at, and I wish I had that kind of skill in being able to anticipate and handle people's wants and needs.

mrs_seng · 2024-05-10T23:44:17+00:00

What i find awesome about men is how they act when they are faced with good homemade food. Hovering the plate, happiness in every bite / spoon, the satisfaction after they finish.

maybememaybeno · 2024-05-11T00:53:03+00:00

Men have the ability to make a woman feel safe and protected. This might just be because I’ve always had a good relationship with my dad but a lot of men give off that dad/hero energy.

I’ve always felt men are less judgmental and I can be myself around them quicker than I can around other women.

Men seem more level-headed, less ruled by emotion.

Men do tend to have a better sense of humour. All of the funniest people I’ve ever met have been men.

Men balance out the shortfalls of women and vice versa. We are different in a lot of ways and similar in a lot of ways and we need each other. It’s nice to see a positive post on here for once.

Dankutoo · 2024-05-10T20:02:57+00:00

Boobs.

(I’m kidding, I’m kidding!)

Women make life worth living. I’m a better version of myself and live a much fuller life when I’m in a serious relationship. It’s a simple as that.

wtknight · 2024-05-10T19:59:43+00:00

I like that there is a woman out there who I liked enough to marry and who liked me enough to marry me. I don’t really care what every other woman is like.

Currentlycurious1 · 2024-05-10T20:30:47+00:00

I feel like I'm the only incel around who actually likes women. Their emotional eq is generally higher, they can point out all sorts of facets of personalities based off a half second of vibes, they're generally more empathetic, they can be easier to talk to about frivolous things. I think, this will sound weird, their souls have a lot more depth than men's... there's a lot more going on underneath the surface.

GojosLowerHalf3 · 2024-05-10T19:56:26+00:00

I appreciate the fact most men outside the internet are actually pretty awesome and don't subscribe to this weird red pill bs

RevolutionaryEye5320 · 2024-05-10T20:47:27+00:00

Women, what about men do you like? Is there anything special or unique about them? What about them do you appreciate?

Also, try to avoid making it dirty.

Full disclosure, that second part does make it a bit difficult for me.

I'm attracted to what society calls masculine appearance and behaviour, but the thing is those absolutely can be and are sometimes replicated by women/females who are inclined towards doing so . Also because my taste in "masculine" covers multiple extremes, I'm into big buff hunks AND sleek beautiful anime prince types not to mention any number of other stops in between, so it's a bit hard to raise anything which is non-sex-organ-related that's truly specifically 100% exclusive to the male sex.

GunR_SC2 · 2024-05-11T01:02:20+00:00

Women's ability for decoration and style is unrivaled. Like, half of my artistic style can be attributed to an ex.

Necessary-Ask-3619 · 2024-05-11T06:23:32+00:00

The power that women hold over men. That is something to be admired. The way they can influence, manipulate and control narratives is impressive.

Their loyalty to the sisterhood. Family, friends etc all come secondary to that.

Maffioze · 2024-05-11T19:43:51+00:00

There are a lot of things I appreciate about women:

1)ability to talk about emotions as concepts more easily than men, less closed off and afraid when it comes to serious conversations about such topics.

2)unconditional kindness to certain people and animals, that almost comes of as naive to someone who was socialized as a man. It warms the heart and makes me feel better to see it.

3)once a woman likes and respects you she will usually try to help you with things as much as she can. Even the ones who don't look favourably towards your gender, or who don't pay attention to issues you face as a man. To some extent its cognitive dissonance and it could be even better but still.

4)their voices make me feel better

5)their focus on people over systems. I both like and dislike this. Sometimes it makes me a better person by broadening my perspective, sometimes it drives me up the wall because I feel misunderstood and unfairly judged by them.

6)intelligent women have a different way of understanding the world than intelligent men. I find it valuable to learn from them.

7)women can be very considerate friends and partners. They do all kinds of small things to express their love. I think it's adorable.

8)women seem to be better at writing atleast on average. I generally don't have to deal with the worst written communication known to man when I'm interacting with a woman.

9)if they trust you, they usually become somewhat submissive with you. This is the best confidence boost as we men don't always trust ourselves necessarily.

10)their ability to organise and plan is way above my level lmao.

damaggdgoods · 2024-05-10T22:09:24+00:00

There is evidence women are actually smarter than men, and I’m not just talking about emotional intelligence. Girls have been outperforming boys in the classroom for a while now. It’s partially cuz they tend to do better with traditional auditory & visual learning whereas men tend to be slow learners in these environments.

Also I find women to have a unique hypnotic charm that I can’t even describe with words. It goes way beyond lusting after certain body parts

TRTGymBro1 · 2024-05-10T20:30:31+00:00

Women smell good.

TheGreatBeefSupreme · 2024-05-10T20:13:09+00:00

I really admire women’s capacity for empathy and compassion. I’m an empathetic person, but I think women just have a greater capacity to be emotionally present with someone who is suffering.

happy_discus · 2024-05-10T22:27:26+00:00

Women are so cute when they are excited. 😍

Jazzlike_Worth_9908 · 2024-05-10T23:35:04+00:00

I love how passionnate they can be and how it makes me see things in a different way. I love when they're outgoing and push me to go out of my comfort zone. I love how they smell the way they Laugh i love their body their softness the way they move. I fucking love women

Different-Total3557 · 2024-05-11T00:30:04+00:00

Things i like about men:

I think overall, men are better at compartmentalizing.

I think men, overall, can be better at "direct" problem solving, whereas I think women are more intuitive with "relational" problems solving. This is just conceptual so don't come at me about accuracy of details, but one way I would put this is....say the problem at hand is cancer. Men are more like "how do we kill cancer cells?" Attack the problem in a direct way. I think with more women entering medicine, we'll see more "relational" approaches too. for example, possibly testing interconnectivity of bodily systems to see if say, diet, supplementing another organ in some way to see if that slows the cancer growth in a different way, etc. For complex problems, the answer is probably a combination of both approaches and ways of thinking. I think of these ways of thinking as complementary

I love that guys can fix stuff. It's really helpful. I actually fell off my bike about a month ago and 3 guys immediately cam to my aide. 1 fixed my bike, the other wrapped up my leg, and a third gave me an unopened gatorade. (I wiped out near a busy gas station so it was very public.

In my personal dating/relationship experience, and what I have told my girlfriends very often, is that most men, at heart, are eager to please women, especially ones that they have feelings for. They want to help, be needed, and wanted. This is a good quality, and when a woman can play to this well, she can be quite inspirational to men in profound ways

What they actually want from women isn't that hard either. They want softness, beauty (and the larger definition of this word, though physical is high on that list, but also, someone who makes places warm and pretty, maybe helps them connect to their emotions through say...art), inspiration, and "meaning." I'm kind of on the "new age spiritual" side of things, like crystals, astrology, etc, and while the guys I've dated kinda teased me about, I have found over time they actually secretly love it. They want to believe there's "more," so that sort of...."spirituality" is something they thirst for. It

Intellect7000 · 2024-05-11T01:03:12+00:00

I like how women are more in tune with their emotions and have good level of emotional intelligence.

Awkward_Show_7463 · 2024-05-11T02:02:22+00:00

As a man. I can seriously do anything with the faith and inspiration from a woman.

bluepvtstorm · 2024-05-11T13:20:02+00:00

In the professional work space I have found that men have always been my biggest advocate for my career. They have always been the one to tell me when I am being underpaid. They speak highly of me when I am not in the room and they generally are willing to help when I have a problem at work.

Men are also super creative at problem solving. My dad could figure out ways to fix things that just made sense.

Planthoe30 · 2024-05-11T13:49:31+00:00

What do I like about men in general? Usually if a man sees me struggling even if I don’t know him he will help me. Last Christmas a man paid for my groceries randomly with 0 expectations, I had the money but he was just passing on a kind act.

My husband is very loving, supportive and lives by his morals.

grown_folks_talkin · 2024-05-11T14:12:20+00:00

Women experience the world in more emotional color ranges than men. It’s good to get their perspectives to help me appreciate the little things in life.

On my own I experience day-to-day life as uneventful.

ModsDontRespond · 2024-05-11T16:52:08+00:00

It’s prolly just me, but I hate that most of the qualities that seem to be appreciated in women all have to do with emotional, “soft”, kind or empathetic .

Basically reaffirms that a woman’s only value stems from being gentle and “motherly”

womandatory · 2024-05-10T22:47:35+00:00

What I love about my guy: - he’s stoic and strong, rolls with adversity and doesn’t easily get derailed, but he’s not afraid of being vulnerable with me, admitting fault, crying or expressing other emotions. - he’s strong, can lift heavy things and doesn’t mind doing manual jobs, genuinely gets pleasure from helping me do physical tasks. - he’s in great shape for his age, eats well and works out without being obsessive and he doesn’t have a ‘mirror boy’ physique. - he genuinely loves spending time with me without it always having to lead to sex, eg quick catch ups for coffee or swing past my place on his way somewhere, or meet at the shops for a hug and kiss. - we are each other’s first person to know the highs and lows of our days, to share the joy and ease the load of disappointment. - he’s funny and smart in ways that I’m not. - he’s learned the way I deal with conflict and has responded well to it - I face things head-on, I rarely get angry but I refuse to back away from an issue if it needs resolving and will not move on until it is, but when it is resolved, it stays that way and never comes up again. - he’s incredibly kind and will go out of his way to help a friend in need. - for him, sex is a mutual act, not something selfish, so he always centres my pleasure, which is awesome because I centre his and that makes it so much better. - he is much more outgoing and sociable than me, and I’ve benefitted from that hugely by growing my circle of friends to include many of his friends wives and girlfriends. - he’s a genuine grown-up, who takes care of all the necessities in his and his family’s lives and doesn’t see responsibility as a burden. - he loves surprises, giving and receiving them and takes great joy in selecting thoughtful and personal gifts for his loved ones. - he is always willing to acknowledge and respect that there are things I know more about than he does, and he goes out of his way to show that respect. - he’s not into gaming or watching TV, so his time is spent productively - he will teach himself how to do something he hasn’t done before and I find this a very attractive masculine trait - everything from fixing something on his house or car, to learning a new recipe, he researches things carefully and invests the time to see things through. - he is very disciplined and ordered, not easily distracted from whatever plan he has - another very attractive masculine trait - and that discipline and order extends to keeping his home clean and tidy. - he always smells nice and tends to his hygiene. - he makes me want to dress up nicely and look good for him (even though I do this for myself, I do take extra care of my health, appearance and grooming because I want to be attractive to him). - he is flawed, but so am I, and we both work on being the best version of ourselves for each other that we can.

I know these are specific to him, but they are characteristics that all men have the opportunity to nurture. It’s possible to be very masculine without being a jerk or a chad or whatever stupid name people want to give it. Obsessing about women and sex and winning and money and biceps and that sort of shit isn’t masculine, it’s raging insecurity. Truly masculine men are confident in their masculinity, they don’t need to advertise it by beating their chest or trying to prove themselves to each other or women.

Give me a guy who will roll up his sleeves and change a flat tire without being asked, or notices and quietly fixes a wonky cupboard door, or adds 30 minutes to his journey to pick something up for a friend over a guy who thinks he a prize and acts like it any day.

Keep_Forever666 · 2024-05-10T22:57:37+00:00

I like that I can feel physically safe around women. There is pretty much a 0% chance any woman I meet can beat my ass.

januaryphilosopher · 2024-05-10T20:19:08+00:00

There's nothing special or unique about men other than a couple of body parts and that's what I like. They are humans like everyone else and some of them are humans I like very much.

TheRedPillRipper · 2024-05-10T21:11:52+00:00

My wife snells amazing. Doesn’t matter if it’s Coco Mademmoiselle or Gypsy Water, I love it. That, and she’s the perfect size for cuddles. She is just the best.

MikeArrow · 2024-05-10T22:12:33+00:00

I admire and respect 'soft power'. The ability women have to be subtle and to influence indirectly. It requires a certain elegance and emotional intelligence that most guys couldn't even dream of having.

PriestKingofMinos · 2024-05-10T21:34:58+00:00

I guess as OP I better give this a shot.

Women are often very motherly, irl basically all of them are pretty agreeable and amicable, at least at first. I don't always feel comfortable around them but they do usually want people to feel safe and secure. You never feel like you are in any physical danger around them. There was one time at an old job where I think a girl was flirting with me because she kept trying to knee me in the groin and laugh about it. I kind of just awkwardly smiled and avoided her.

Also, seriously?

Ayaka_Simp_ · 2024-05-10T22:17:45+00:00

I like how squishy and soft women are. They are like marshmallows.

Choice-Substance-183 · 2024-05-10T20:15:10+00:00

Men? Like the overall gender of male? Don't really care one way or the other.

I don't really think about "men" in the abstract.

I can think of things I admire, appreciate, and enjoy about my husband. But that's just one man.

What characteristics in the opposite sex do you genuinely find enduring?

None that are specific to a certain sex.

throwaway164_3 · 2024-05-10T22:34:09+00:00

There are few greater pleasures in life as a man than having an attractive woman moan your name in pure ecstasy writhing underneath you as you’re fucking her brains out

Kinky and sexual attractive women are a gift to the world.

Tight_Lawfulness3206 · 2024-05-10T23:38:34+00:00

I enjoy men's intelligence and exciting conversations with them. They are often good friends and can be less drama sometimes than women.

Alfred-Adler · 2024-05-11T01:33:27+00:00

Sex with a woman who is good-looking and enthusiastically enjoys it, is absolutely mind-blowing.

xenogamesmax · 2024-05-11T23:58:37+00:00

MBTHVSK · 2024-05-19T15:44:14+00:00

I like that women are charmed by men being incredibly driven by their hobbies, without much nuance to it. But let's be fair, men all wish they could get laid the way they can play video games, simply by choosing it. SO it's all fucked.

GridReXX · 2024-05-10T20:19:46+00:00

I admire the male physique. I think it’s quite beautiful and hyper functional especially wrt the external world. Watching men play a sport or do something physical (shirtless espesh 😉) is amazing! But no seriously the athleticism and physical capability is so dope!
on one hand I find some men’s lack of “considering things and others” hyper frustrating, but on the other hand it does allow them to be very chill and unaffected which is grounding and a reprieve when you yourself are stressed (as long as his lack of care isn’t the source of your stress lol)
they are strong! One time I went hiking and one of the people twisted their ankle pretty badly. Us ladies created a makeshift stint for them. But it was the 6’3 broad guy who was our own handy strong man who was able to carry them for a while. I don’t think I’d want to exist in the wilderness without a man.

Think_Day_8061 · 2024-05-10T20:49:08+00:00

There's nothing I like or dislike inherent to men or women. It feels weird to think about an entire gender in that way.

I love you all, people of PPD!

I think they cause me to do better. Even if sometimes through nagging. Like I'll make more money and try harder to work out or lose weight.

They tend to be more organized. You see it in just our writing in grade school.

Direct-Alternative70 · 2024-05-10T21:56:55+00:00

Is there really anything that men or women have that could be complimented only about that one sex?

Unless you talk about anatomy there’s nothing special about either that the other couldn’t have.

I understand the want to keep it clean as it should but that’s impossible to do when there’s nothing else to differentiate

ThisBoringLife · 2024-05-10T22:58:23+00:00

I have female members of my family that I admire and respect for their character and actions.

pop442 · 2024-05-11T00:42:12+00:00

Honestly, I view both genders in a more individualized or subgroup sense. There's awful men and women and amazing men and women.

I appreciate the amazing women in my life and in general.

Dull-Laugh-4037 · 2024-05-11T01:11:59+00:00

I can be very negative about the opposite sex in this sub, but that is becuase I value how beautiful women can be as people and feel that our current day society is gradually degragating them. Women are no longer motivated to be the best version of themselves, internally speaking. They have men fawning at their feet and in the comment section of their instagram.

With that said, I think women embody some of the most beautiful traits such as being selfless, nurturing, loving, kind, empathetic, humble. There is nothing greater than the love of a mother. Having seen many young women become mothers it changes everything about them into a better human being. Women see the small actions. They make life more joyful. They love deeper. They laugh more enthusiastically. They believe in people when others wont. Etc, etc.

badgersonice · 2024-05-11T01:36:57+00:00

These don’t apply to all men, but they do to an awful lot of men.

I like the way men’s deep voices sound. There’s so many guys with like, soothing, interesting, rich voices.

I love the way men can move with strength, grace, power, athleticism and precision all at once! Like, everything I do is clumsy and weak and lame. It’s awesome to watch how men who are good at something move their bodies. I love watching my husband walk, or run or swing a golf club or a racket or whatever. Anything I do physically seems like an embarrassing awkward joke in comparison. I don’t get how he moves so fluidly.

I like how men tend to be better at doing fun pretend-mean banter and having it be no big deal without taking offense (yeah, not all guys, but it’s more common).

I’m low key jealous of how male friendships are without women around. I can tell I’ll never be a part of it, or trusted or welcomed with the same warmth or ease or trust that men give each other. It seems like such an easy going, fun relationship, and it’s kinda sad I’ll always be unwelcome. But they’re relationships I still think are endearing and cool.

bluestjuice · 2024-05-11T02:31:49+00:00

The women that I see around me spend a lot of time and effort considering their lives, working on living with more intentionality, authenticity, and grace. I see them pursuing their dreams; publishing books, earning law degrees and masters degrees and medical degrees, handling really complicated family situations, tackling the Appalachian Trail, studying martial arts. They inspire me to show up more fully for myself and keep striving. I feel really lucky to be part of a group of people who are plugged in to personal growth, community-oriented, and working to make their corners of the world a better place.

I admire the men I know. I love the way they give each other shit with the same heartfelt ferocity that they bring to moments of deeply-felt vulnerability. They cheer us on and spend time celebrating our wins. They take us seriously and really listen to our points of view. Men care deeply and really want to do a well, and it’s endearing as fuck.

A majority of women seem to be very good at multitasking. I couldn't do it to save my life.

Apocalypstik · 2024-05-11T03:00:34+00:00

Generally; dad jokes. Their protective nature. And the fix-it attitude.

Specifically; I love that my husband is good at planning but not so rigid he won't be spontaneous with me. I like how he is possessive without being controlling; more so in a protective and 'cherishing' manner.
I love how hard he applies himself to what he does and I admire his work ethic. I love the way his brain works, where he can 'see' things from different perspectives and how curious he is.
I love that I am not afraid of him, even when he is angry or upset about something. I love how strong he is, even when he is in pain--but he lets me comfort him. And I love that he is my best friend

obviouslymoose · 2024-05-11T04:05:43+00:00

Woman here.

Idk I find men to be even more honest than women earlier on when you make them feel comfortable. Women tend to judge easier and are wayyyy better at being nice but surface level. Men are more likely to be quiet and walled off or very real.

Women are real too it just takes more time.

CarAlternative1801 · 2024-05-11T04:52:31+00:00

There are individual women who I love as friends or admire, but that has nothin to do with their gender, thats just who they are. I can’t think of anything for just “women” as a whole.

SlothMonster9 · 2024-05-11T05:49:35+00:00

I feel like men are a calming presence, they're chill and don't over-dramatise stuff, they take things as they are, are more honest and don't hold on to grudges.

If i'm having some issues, men can just dissipate my worries within seconds in a brutal way like "if it works it works, but if it doesn't the worse thing that could happen is X, Y, Z, so pull yourself together cause it's not that bad". Women usually like to dig deeper when talking about problems, which also is very helpful, but sometimes you just need a cold shower that only men can give.

They're also very fun to be around. They crack jokes and make fun of themselves, they break tension with humor.

I admire their constant effort to make themselves better. Me and my husband have a pretty good life together, but he can't relax for more than 1 week because we could be even better, so he looks for projects to do, things to invest etc.

So yeah, i've said multiple times on this sub, men IRL are awesome.

moldovan0731 · 2024-05-11T06:02:10+00:00

The energy a feminine woman can give off. Video example: https://youtu.be/3wXgF-y2hm8?si=xO_BXahgvxUe-bo1

ArmchairDesease · 2024-05-11T07:28:52+00:00

This is a bit stereotypical, but I think women are a lot more attentive to people's feeling. It's nuanced and hard to describe. The general vibe with my male friends is just more rough and competitive.

flextov · 2024-05-11T07:42:24+00:00

The women that I know are nice to me.
The men that I know are nice to me.
I don’t know any bears. I have no opinion on them.
A chihuahua ripped my throat out and ate my left leg. I hate those little bastards.

TallFoundation7635 · 2024-05-11T07:43:05+00:00

In my experience, good women have made me happier, more empathetic and a lot calmer.

i_have_a_semicolon · 2024-05-11T10:26:39+00:00

I am extremely fortunate to have a loving and wonderful husband. My husband is the best person I know. He's always there for me, he's competent, driven, kind, respectful, loving, great in bed, I could go on. I wish I could write a novel about how great he is. But you caught the drift, lol

Timpstar · 2024-05-11T12:31:07+00:00

Women have an uncanny ability for empathy. I consider myself empathetic, but very competent in the ways of showing it or acting appropriately according to people's emotional needs. All of the women I know are absolute wizards at this, and that makes them very good for talking to when you need "real" talk.

kitterkatty · 2024-05-11T12:58:40+00:00

Poetry, rough gentleness, technical mind

Ok-Situation2395 · 2024-05-12T03:47:08+00:00

I like the fact that my sense of humor is more in line with a lot of men. I also appreciate that I feel less afraid of judgement when I’m talking to a dude. Plus, I am the first to want to crack a joke instead of automatically deferring to “what is the right thing to say emotionally?” My friends now are much more like me; moms that occasionally call other kids pricks.

Ill-Consideration208 · 2024-05-12T18:10:46+00:00

children. full stop.

Dorkology · 2024-05-10T20:23:07+00:00

I said this in another Q4M post.

"I think life without women would make living pointless for men. They are literally the perfect compliment to us. They can make a high two fold better. They can make you keep going when you're trudging through a low point. They've been the inspiration for so many amazing developments. The inspiration for some of the most beautiful musical pieces ever arranged. And they have the most amazing superpower. The ability to foster life in their body is absolutely phenomenal. Seeing the life my wife created has made me feel degrees of love I didn't know were possible. I can't look at our baby without feeling gratitude and wanting to give her a hug and kiss."

In that post, I also pointed out the other side of the coin (because that was part of the question).

"Anyone who can bring such amazing highs can obviously do the opposite. Humans are flawed beings. So, I'll not ascribe negative connotations to a whole demographic for the sins of a few."

It's the nature of people who feel strongly enough about a topic to post about it to also take to extremes. Negativity is easier to latch onto than the positive. So it's no surprise that guys skipped my negative points to assume me a simp. And it's no surprise that women call me an insert shame tactic here when I point out unflattering true about them as well.

There's no point trying to appease the fringe 🤷‍♂️

full_brick_package · 2024-05-10T23:40:00+00:00

Well, I'm becoming so bitter from this sub, other subs and TikTok at this point that I'm becoming an actual misogynist. I'm really trying to resist that but it's causing me a lot of distress because women and the feminist ideals they generally hold even when claiming not to be one, are so incredibly harmful and antithetical to everything I am as a hedonistic man.

But I suppose their ability to nurture, bring out the best in their partners, they're often very intelligent and look at things from a different perspective that can help foster growth in certain types of research.

i love grandmas. Generally when women get older, they can just be way sweeter and more dependable. They become like a best friend, even if they're not related to you. Heck, I could go into a nursing home and just share stories all day. Just absolute sweethearts.

RosieBarb · 2024-05-10T20:13:07+00:00

My boyfriend smells amazing and he rocks my world.

Unhappy_Offer_1822 · 2024-05-10T20:33:23+00:00

Most men are alright. I don't have a negative opinion on them.

The ones I really admire are the ones who are intelligent and think differently and don't fit the mold

AngeCruelle · 2024-05-10T20:51:28+00:00

Their hands. Easily the most beautiful/attractive thing about men in general imo. My BF's will always be my favorite though. I could touch and kiss them all day if he wanted it and time allowed.

spanglesandbambi · 2024-05-10T20:59:42+00:00

My husband is the best Dad ever (yes I might be a bit bais).

I posted about this on askwomen, but I was using an old phone to play music and searched something about the baby. It showed all the things he searched while the baby was asleep from activities to milestones.

He wants ehats vest for our child and knows I'm a bit busy at the minute (baby still has some breastmilk) so doesn't ask me despite my MA in Child Development he goes out and tries to find the answer himself.

He is also so kind and patient with our little boy and really tries to emphasise. He also really patient with me as I lost my Mother many years ago and being a Mum without your own is something you have to grief a bit too.

Endgame2648 · 2024-05-10T22:37:02+00:00

I love it when she gets possesive about me. Makes me really great to feel that there is someone who wants me all for herself

AdEffective7894s · 2024-05-11T06:11:03+00:00

Sorry to be a party pooper but there is nothing that I see.in them worth emulating.

Maybe it is negative sentiment overide in my case.

But I would struggle to come up with anything even back when I was not a ragjng mysoginist.

YuYuHakusho23 · 2024-05-10T20:00:23+00:00

I appreciate that the “female women hate all male man and are afraid of them” TwoX mindset doesn’t really seem to apply irl (at least in instances where I am interacting or talking to them). Most seem pretty chill and welcoming (once again in my experience).

GreatSmashPlayer · 2024-05-10T23:07:15+00:00

I like big butts and I cannot lie

AstronautExisting230 · 2024-05-10T20:38:47+00:00

I admire women's ability to effortlessly manipulate men into doing almost anything for them. It's actually insane.

MelodicCrow2264 · 2024-05-10T20:38:11+00:00

I am truly impressed with how easy women’s lives are in comparison to men.

Imaginary-Being8395 · 2024-05-10T20:50:12+00:00

woman have the potential to have the closest thing to unconditional love. The love of a mon for her child

alwaysright12 · 2024-05-10T20:45:42+00:00

Big dick

fifththrowaway · 2024-05-10T20:47:16+00:00

Women are more empathetic
Women excel at inflicting social damage. A good fitness trait for a time in society where physicality matters less.
Women are more conscientious about their health, and are more proactive about taking care of themselves
Women play as a cohesive group very well. This is why they'll rally to defend random women they don't know from male criticism, and why 'pick-me's' (defectors) arouse contempt.
I like women because of their boobs

Friedrich_Friedson · 2024-05-10T21:12:55+00:00

Long legged goth girls with red hairs and black eyeliner/s

One-Preference7122 · 2024-05-10T22:59:18+00:00

My mother and grandmother are are true strong women that work hard and love their men and children, they've have been transparent with me in regards to how young women think and I'm thankful for that. It's saved me a lot of potential heart break.

Franc3n35d · 2024-05-10T23:24:05+00:00

Women will have much more depth to their relationships with friends. A woman will meet someone they vibe with in the wild, talk and exchange numbers to meet later. I tried that with another man the other day. Turns out he was just trying to sell me on a pyramid scheme

TopEntertainment4781 · 2024-05-11T01:18:46+00:00

I like men’s rough and earthy sense of humor.

Green-Quantity1032 · 2024-05-11T03:04:10+00:00

I suppose you meant endearing, cuz I think most personality traits endure.

I don't think women in general are aspiring the same that I don't think that about men.

I do like the average woman MUCH more than I like the average man.

The interesting part is when you don't talk about the average, but specifically about ones I like/liked:

I like that they're beautiful, I love it when they're beautiful and still manage to be funny and outgoing and not stuck-up.

tbh I recently realized I can borderline fall in love in 5 minutes with the right girl, kinda scary, I thought I'm way beyond that by now. Those kind are very rare though.

Also recently found out I really like it when they're smart - math-smart.

But it's always conditioned on them being attractive - and the more beautiful the more everything else compounds for me.

Ok I'm rambling @ 6am, time for bed

Comfortable-Wish-192 · 2024-05-12T04:59:07+00:00

I think many men are downright chivalrous. I have never had a flat tire where I wasn’t helped. Or pushed my car by myself. My husband saved me from an abusive ex.

Men ( except those with a temper) are calm under pressure. They are great problem solvers too.

They help me think of things in different ways. Conversations with educated men on politics is especially fun as fewer women share my interest. Medicine and finance are fun as well. They expand my thinking.

They don’t gossip! I love this! It’s the thing that most annoys me about some women. Hate caddy.

I’m the handyman in my house but in general guys are handy and often mechanically inclined.

Also I know NOTHING about cars glad men do. My husband is a car savant.

Men are PROTECTIVE of those they love. My husband (when we were dating) would get very upset when I slept in my backyard. Afraid someone would get me (as if anyone knew I was back there with a 6 foot privacy fence). It was sweet. A surgeon I worked with would get upset I didn’t get a ride to my car. Hospital was in the hood I was young and dumb. He waited and scared the crap out of me one night ( my shift ended at 11:15 pm) and it worked. I stopped doing it. When I was showing my condo to prospective male tenants my teen son would insist on being there if my husband couldn’t. I was being strangled by a patient once ( crack is bad) lol. Trauma surgeon walked in the unit and ran at him full force knocking him down. Then he paralyzed and intubated him with minimum sedation to teach him a lesson. Left him tubed 24 hours. 🤷‍♀️ Not fun. Men are amazing!

They often have a good sense of humor. Women aren’t often funny.

Physically I love their giant hands. I’ll take a nice chest and arms too lol.

Love_on_you0422 · 2024-05-14T09:32:50+00:00

IntrepidRisk3433 · 2024-05-10T20:10:36+00:00

I admire women who can give good blowjobs. Except I’m yet to meet one. 0/50. I know they are out there. I admire them, and I hope to meet one someday

Silver_Switch_3109 · 2024-05-10T22:27:29+00:00

Boobs.

Tokimonatakanimekat · 2024-05-10T23:04:44+00:00

They are human too.

kongeriket · 2024-05-10T21:04:17+00:00

Men, what about women do you like?

ability for multiple orgasms
boobs
ability for social manipulation

What do you think they give to the world that men don't and perhaps can't?

Ability to birth children. It is literally the only thing. Until we perfect artificial uteri, that is. Which is very unlikely anytime soon.

Do you find anything about them inspiring?

About women in general? No. I also don't find anything inspiring about men in general. Or about [insert demographic here].

About certain women? Of course. The life of my great-grandma who lived 100+ years and been through both World Wars is highly inspiring to me. She was also the first to feed me the first Red Pill. And warned me warmly about other women. I'd probably ended up a bitter incel for a while without her, may God have mercy of her soul.

Electric_Death_1349 · 2024-05-10T20:40:23+00:00

BIG TITS!!!

soontobesolo · 2024-05-10T20:00:42+00:00

You're right! I have some positives:

I adore being loved/appreciated
I love cuddles
Obviously sex is awesome with a partner that truly desires you
I love their curves, soft skin, all the feminine beauty.

Aside from that, I don't see a whole lot of differences in ability, or what they can give to the world that men can't (and vice versa). They're people with a huge range of talent and skills, just like men.

I guess they can carry babies. LOL

CompetitiveTennis112 · 2024-05-10T22:50:18+00:00

men like pussies and women like dicks isn't this the whole thing... it's called being straight

Ok-Assistant-1220 · 2024-05-11T02:24:26+00:00

I enjoy breasts a Lot.

forking_guy · 2024-05-11T02:53:55+00:00

Well, I certainly enjoy having sex with women.

Sure_Tourist1088 · 2024-05-11T00:37:05+00:00

I like that women universally despise short men, saved me thousands.

Mascara_N_Lipgloss · 2024-05-10T21:43:22+00:00

I enjoy a man holding the door open for me, speaking gently to me, paying for me. I enjoy real men.
