Nope. You just have to grow up, get beyond appearances, and look for a complementary mate. Working on being able to love unconditionally helps.
Took me forty years to grow that much.
I’ve thought that women’s hormonal shifts offer them at least the opportunity to be aware of what their hormones are doing to their minds, and to take that into account in regulating their behavior and making decisions. Not that all women are aware, or that the ones who are aware, make the extra effort.
Men, OTOH, without the same degree of fluctuation, might find it easier to deny that they are under the influence of their hormones.
ALL THIS STUFF IS IMPOSSIBLE, ABSURD, AND.... EVIL! IT'S EVIL!!!!
Don’t forget to mention you’re a Doctor...
Women will show in public what they won’t show at home. Go figure. My girlfriend was very reluctant to wear her bikini inside the house. Something about when she was at the beach, male attention was diffused among all the other women present, but at home she assumed my eyes were constantly glued to her (she was right).

George Clooney - that’s funny, the is worthless.
In high school a million years ago bad boys where chosen because they were the only ones with cars.
Goes totally against how the liberals are trying to pussify men.
Now the world is run by people with estrogen poisoning, and testosterone deficient males who kowtow to them.
Man the doomsday bunkers!
Totally irrational and bassackwards. One would think that in contemplating children a rational woman would want a man who exhibits stability (they CAN still be sexy).
They do want to stable, nice guy to RAISE the child but want the bad /masculine./test filled guy as the gene carrier.
I could have told them the same thing after the check cleared from the person funding the study.
“As a male I have seen it(as in dating) women who have tat’s/piercings. Let’s say there is no comparison. More open to try anything..lot more open, outgoing, carefree, let’s leave it at that.”
I would add to that (at the risk of major flameage) women who smoke cigarettes. Just my personal observation over the last 54 years - they project a “sure, I’m easy” vibe.
Gulp...
“Because Modern Women are BLANKED in the head.”
Riiiiiiiiiight. It’s just the women.
Men NEVER select for looks. Never, ever.
Men look for more important qualities. They inevitably go for the smart, stable woman with the good job and sense of humor who’s five two, 160 pounds, short brown hair and glasses.
“Women choose to have relationships with bad boys because they dont like themselves very much, and were raised either without a close relationship with their fathers, or with an unhealthy relationship with their fathers.”
My personal experience directly contradicts this: my elder daughter and I have always had a terrific, close relationship in a biblically run Christian family and she got involved with an atheistic, tattooed, pot-smoking a$$hole in college. She finally figured out he was worthless, but not before our entire family went through hell dealing with her poor choices.
But now that they offer paternity test kits over the counter at pharmacies.......
Maybe not so much anymore!
Not finding George Clooney particularly sexy anymore.
another one from scripture, tis better to live in the corner of the attic than in a house with a quarresome woman..
Beautiful woman and wealthy men is older than the hills. It’s not just good looks, a la Clooney, it’s “the look,” i.e., piercings, tattoos, etc. “Edgy.”
Some women will be attracted to a homely man with the ‘bad boy look’ more quickly than to a handsome, solid/sober/responsible guy.
Women are most attracted to men who display an attitude of “If you won't sleep with me, that's fine, I was getting tired out from all the other girls anyway”.” PapaBear3625
You hit that nail on the head. Women are notorious “mate poachers” - they want a man who already has a woman. He is vetted, domesticated, and desired.
They did a study where women answered questions and then were told that based upon their answers they were emotionally compatible with THIS guy (the same picture of a male model). Half the women were told that he was single, and would they like him to contact them? The other half were told he was in a relationship, but would they like him to contact them?
Of the women told he was single - only 60% wanted him to contact them. Male model, told that he was emotionally compatible - and 40% had no interest in him contacting them.
Of the women told he was in a relationship - 90% wanted him to contact them.
That is why men's sex lives seems to be either feast or famine. When you are hungry - nobody wants to feed you. When you are satiated - women all seem to want to whip something up in the kitchen to tantalize your taste-buds.
