This is my 10

So I read a friend's post about being attractive to men and other relationship issues and it made me think. Woman always feel the need to fit the description of what men want. But men don't seem to be as obsessed with meeting our desires. It's a media, societal thing I'm sure. But it's still crap. So I decided to make my own list of my ideal guy

from what i understand, guys DO feel a lot of pressure to look and act certain ways. most of this is coded in proving masculinity, being the alpha male, stupid shit like that. guys "need" to be tall, buff, square-jawed, wealthy, powerful, assertive, funny, very straight with no hints of effeminacy, sexually adept (ie large in the trouser-snake department)...and must have women falling all over them at all times, especially hot ones.

the difference is that in our culture, a man's sense of worth and importance is not anywhere nearly as tied to bodily appearance as it is for women. "unattractive" men with good jobs can still be respected, while unattractive women with good jobs still get hassled and ridiculed for being unattractive. far fewer people hate on Chris Farley than on Roseanne Barr. Sarah Palin is somehow more popular than Hillary Clinton, even though the latter actually does a decent job and doesn't resign her positions or make up words and pretend she's Shakespeare.

in any case, i <3 you, and also i'd like to point out that
