Understanding How Women are Attracted to Men

Video Transcript

"Hi, my name is Reka Morvay. I'm a psychologist, and I'm going to talk to you today about what attracts women to men. Now, this is a very misleading question, because obviously different women will be attracted to different kinds of men for different kinds of reasons, so it is impossible to generalize about what attracts women to men. Think about this; a sixteen year old high school girl who is, you know, just getting to know dating and is just into partying, and wants to go out and have fun will be attracted to the cute boy who dances well at the nearest party; whereas, the twenty five year old who is new in her career and wants to start establishing a family will be looking for a different kind of man. Whereas, the thirty five year old woman with two children who is recently divorced, and is a single mother will be looking for somebody to help her, support her; maybe financially, and maybe with raising her children. And then, there's the sixty year old woman whose husband passed away who is looking for maybe companionship, and some low-key activities to do for the remaining days of her life. I mean, it is very, very obvious that women in different situations, different life situations, and women who have different personalities will be looking for different things in men. You cannot generalize. Individual differences in taste cannot be overemphasized. So, there are some women who are attracted to gentlemen. There are some women who are attracted to macho guys. There are some women who are attracted to the strong, big burly type who will take care of her and protect her if some, or if anything happens. Then, there are those women who are attracted to somebody who's really intelligent and does really well in their profession. So, you cannot really come to a generalization about what a attracts women to men, because everybody is different based on their personality, their family history, and based on where they are in life."
