I can relate to that... Girls that wore the same size clothes as I did were a lot more attractive than all those skinny ones!! Lol.

Ya I do think culturally womans worth is looks while guys is pocket books.

Luckily there are plenty of people who can find value in a few more internal traits (nothing wrong with being rich/good looking, just hopefully not the only reason someone would pick a partner).

 
Although guys claim they prefer natural beauty, I just don't believe it.

For instance, look at how many men consider Megan Fox one of the most gorgeous women to ever live. No offense to the actress of course, but the woman wears TONS of makeup. No one has ever even seen her without it.

I remember stumbling across an article in which a guy was raving about how pretty Megan looked without makeup when in the picture she had a full face on. Guys just don't know what is natural and what is natural makeup.

 
Guys Say Whatever They think girls want to hear in hopes of getting some lol plain & Simple!!!!

If asked by a Girl "What type of girl do you like" There not gona say "Fake boobs, big hair, high heels etc"...... & have you feel insecure or think he's an A$$hole

I believe The men who say I like Natural Beauty in a woman really mean They LIke natural Beauty in THEIR Woman guys want to look at the "fake boob porn looking girl" But dont want Their own chick looking like that for every other man to stare at!!!

I wear the fake lashes alot of makeup long hair all teased up & I've never once been told to tone it down!!!!!

I have to agree that some men and maybe most do see it this way. It's complicated and I don't think we'll ever know the truth behind it all.

 
Guys are such hypocrits! I read a study in Men's Health that was about guys supposedly not liking girls that wear a lot of makeup, in which one girl was given 3 looks, no makeup at all, very little makeup (foundation and some chapstick), and a full face of makeup. The guys were shown pics and told which girl they would like to date. The overwheming majority 85% went with the girl with the full face. I think 10% went with the no makeup at all, and less than 5 went with little makeup. Guys just make it seem like they don't like makeup, but it's total b.s!

Prolly half the men I have known are metros anyways so they are starting to understand about the time spent. Obviously not to the level most women do but a little more.

I like the metrosexual guything going on. The thought of they have tried to make an effort is very delicious.
 
I think men are simplistic. A lot so more than we might think. That's the problem though. We are complex emotionally driven women [some] and men are simple logically driven [again, some].

Men want a simple distinct line, a woman that can be dolled up, and a woman that can do those things with him, like hunting and what not. They like a woman to be able to diversify because simply enough, they feel like they can so we can as well.

It really depends on your man though, but as for your friends saying all that, I think that is half lie half truth. Guys like what it looks like, but had they ever got the chance to bed those said women, they would feel cheated if they were deceived to see her completely different out of her clothes.

Great topic

He's also far more emotional than me.

Haha this is a really interesting thread! I personally think mens claim to hate 'fakery' stems from two things. Firstly, as much as they love a gorgeous put together woman, they worry that a woman who puts too much into her appearance will infringe on their life. It may be good fun going out with a stunner but not so much if you've had to sit there debating the finer details of wardrobe and makeup with her for 4 hours before you were able to get her to leave the house. Men in general find makeup boring and so if it is really obvious how much time you put into it they will assume that applying slap is all you do all day.

Secondly most men are simply clueless. They want you to look good and naturally made up but as people have said have no idea how much time effort and practice that 'effortless' makeup requires. In short they think women can look fab but not take any time to do so. Hehehe... I remember the first week my fiance moved in. He found my eyelash curlers and spent a good hour trying to figure out what they were! Bless...

 
Ita with Leticia. Honestly, most men just aren't aware how much effort goes into the "no makeup" look. I remember one time I had very natural looking makeup; my skin looked radiant, my eyes were subtley smudged with a bronzey e/s and I had nude lipgloss. It had taken me about 30 mintues to do it and my husband tells me, "See, I told you you looked fine without makeup!" I quickly told him I DID have makeup on and he didn't say much else about it.

According to them foundation, concealer, powder, eye liner, eye shadow, mascara, and lipstick is au naturale. In fact, the natural look requires the most products, and so men are gladly fooled.
 
Men want to have SEX with "fake" girls : Heidi Montag, Pam Anderson, Playboy centerfolds,etc. Men want to MARRY the girls next door: Sandra Bullock, Jennifer Anniston, Hilary Swank types. I had a long discussion with my fiance about this!

I had a long discussion with my fiance about this! Ha i love this, cause its true! Every guy is this way. They will look at a "fake" woman and say, "man, i want to get with her!" and then thats it. Men look at the rest of us and say "man, i want to get to know her!" haha. i would SO much rather be that girl.
 
i Agree to a somewhat degree BUT I'd much rather be the Girl my Guy wants to get to know & Fantasises about not one or the other!!!!!!!!!!!! Id much rather lean toward pam anderson than jen aniston though

yeah thats true! but i guess what i was trying to say when i said i'd rather be that girl is i dont want my guys reason behind talking to me being "i wanted to get in your pants!" kind of a thing! ha ya know?? i mean, i want him to want to be with me, but if he is coming up to me first time in hopes of banging me, i must look slightly slutty. or else that is just the kind of guy he is

haha

 
this reminds me of my own experience with my boyfriend. when I first started dating him he told me he liked me better when I didn't wear any make up. So for about six months I did the totally make up free look and he didn't say anything bad about my looks, but then I personally got bored and missed my make up so I started wearing it again whether he wanted me too or not. After seeing how smoking hot I got after wearing make up though he's totally on board with me wearing make up again!

 
I had an issue with not wearing enough makeup to please my man.. lol. I was goth and so was he. The more makeup, the more he liked it. It was to the point where I couldn't fit anymore eyeliner on my face and the white makeup got everywhere. Then there are guys like Marilyn Manson that wears makeup and is attracted totally to the girl next door, Evan Rachel Wood. Another goth guy I dated loved goth girls, but he had posters of blonde, tan chicks in his bathroom.
