If you are a lady and consistently wonder what exactly men find attractive in women, then this piece might just be able to solve that problem for you…
1. Wide hips
Wide hips are a sexually dimorphic trait. During puberty, women’s hipbones widen to facilitate childbirth. Hips don’t lie—wide hips in a woman are a strong signifier to men that she’s a mature adult who’s very much capable of reproduction. (She can push out little critters with ease.) Since we men are all about putting our seed in fertile ground, it’s not uncommon to see us fawning over Iggy Azalea and her ilk’s “parted like the Red Sea” hips.
2. Big, full, and red lips
Big, full, and red lips are a strong sign of good genetic quality. Full lips are often a sign that your jaws have grown correctly without misalignment—a very good indicator of genetic health. It’s no coincidence that people who have a perfect teeth and a perfect bite often also have full lips. But what of the redness? Lipstick doesn’t exist in nature, so why would men find red lipstick attractive? When women apply red lipstick they’re unknowingly mimicking a big sign of arousal in primates. Upon arousal in female primates blood rushes to their lips, creating a red sheen. Naturally, male apes are going to want to get with someone who’s putting her willingness on display. This is no less true in Homo sapiens. Red lips are universally attractive because they signal arousal and willingness to engage in secx. So ladies, perhaps you should be a bit more careful with what you smear on your lips if you don’t want to look like you’re actively looking to get a piping.
3. Slim waists
This one goes hand-in-hand with the wide hips. Estrogen, the female hormone, dictates fat storage in women. High estrogen levels in the female body often mean that fat will congregate around the breasts, the hips, and ass—NOT the stomach. So when men see a woman with a bit of a gut—she’s telling us “My estrogen levels are not very high”—men love high estrogen, so she’s not going to be a big hit with the lads.
It’s simple—if you have a big belly, we’re not going to find you as attractive as we would if you had a slim waist. DUH. Testosterone, the male hormone, dictates fat storage on the stomach. That’s why you don’t see many women with beer guts.
4. Maternal instinct
Women who display a maternal inclination and all the traits that this entails are very attractive. Qualities such as kindness, empathy, and warmth are all the offspring of the maternal demeanor. They are also the antithesis of the typical feminist qualities, something that may explain why most men find feminists repulsive. Personally, I find that seeing a woman coddling a pet or a baby with love in her eyes stirs something deep inside of me—it awakens primal attraction. I remember finding Disney’s portrayal of Snow White to be incredibly attractive as a child. Looking back on it through an evolutionary lens, I’ve come to realize that it may have had a lot do with her cuddle sessions with forest animals. I will often look at how women treat children and small animals. It is a good way to determine whether she’s girlfriend material or pump-and-dump material. Embodying maternal qualities tells men that you will be a good mother to your potentially shared offspring.
5. Submissiveness
