What a Woman Really Wants from Man?

Meet her Emotional Needs and she will Meet your Physical Needs

What a woman really wants from her man may not be what her man thinks she really wants. A woman’s needs are emotional as to where a man’s needs are physical. Women are more sensitive than men and a woman’s needs are easier to be met than the man may realize. The man may think he is taking care of all of her needs, when in reality; she is feeling very empty and lonely. I have composed a list of some ideas that a man can use to make his woman happier.

A Woman Likes for her Man to Listen

A woman likes to know that when she is talking her man is listening. Not only that he is listening, but also that he cares about what she is saying. However, in most cases, the man comes home from work and has had a long, stressful day. All he hears when she is talking is “blah, blah, blah.” He tries to tune her out and goes to his favorite recliner and grabs his handy remote control. He loves his television more than anything in the world.

She stands in front of the television and he leans left and right to see. Finally, she gives up and eventually, communication is lost, thus the relationship goes bad.

Communication is very important in a relationship. There is a way to stop your relationship from falling apart due to lack of communication. I know you men are tired when you come home, but I have a few suggestions:

• When you first get home, ask your woman how her day was. When she answers, actually listen to what she has to say and respond. This will let her know that you care about what she went through during the day and that you want to know what she has to share with you.
• Tell her about your day. Ask her for advice on problems you dealt with during the day.
• After you communicate for awhile, then you can go and watch television.

I think communication is the most important factor to a healthy relationship. If you always know what your partner is feeling then you will always be close to each other.

A Woman Loves Compliments

A woman loves to be told how good she looks by her man. When you get home in the afternoons and she looks like she has spent hours getting ready to go nowhere, she did this for your attention. Tell her how hot she is. This will make her feel that you notice her and will help to keep her self esteem at a peak.

I know a lot of times you are exhausted and may not pay much attention to the fact that your woman is wearing make-up and has on that hot dress. However, if she does go way out to look good for you, you need to make an effort to let her know how fine she looks to your eyes.

If you fail to do this, the beautiful woman that you love will either quit trying to look good anymore. She will have her pajama’s on and her hair will be sticking straight up on top of her head at 5 in the afternoon because she knows that you will not notice if she does dress up for you. Or, she will dress herself up with the hope that someone else may compliment her. If this happens, you can tell your relationship good-bye. Someone else will notice her and she will like the self esteem booster. So men, just take a few minutes everyday and tell your woman that she is HOT.

A Woman Loves Romance

I know that most men are not very romantic. However, most women like a little romance. You do not have to spend your whole paycheck to romance your woman. There are simple things you can do to “knock her off of her feet.” Here are some things you can do to romance your woman:

• Send her off to the store and fill the bedroom with candles. Put rose petals on the floor from the front door to the bed. Put rose petals on the bed also. Turn on some soft music and wait for her to get home. The rest is up to you.
• Take her on a surprise picnic. Take some food in a basket, a blanket, a radio, and some wine if she likes wine. Find a secluded location and park your blanket in that spot. This will bring you closer and can be very romantic with little cost.
• Go for a hike together. You could hike to a waterfall or just hike through the woods. This is a wonderful way to bond.
• Take her out dancing and to her favorite restaurant
• Surprise her with a romantic dinner one night

A Woman Loves to Cuddle

Women love to cuddle and be held. Men are usually thinking on different terms. Maybe you could just lie in bed and watch a movie together. Give her a gentle massage, hold her close to you and cuddle with her. Do not do anything more than this for a couple of nights. Just be close to her and let her be comfortable in your arms.

If you do this along with some of the other tips in this article, your woman will be “so into you.” If you can meet her emotional needs, she will meet your physical needs.

The five types of Men that Women will go for

The Bad Boy—He may not have a pot to p*ss in or a window to throw it out, but, if he’s a thug or some other type of bad boy, women will want him. BAD. They’ll wanna fight other women for him. They’ll wanna be his baby mama. They’ll wanna be the one that he settles for. Guess what? This dude’s not gonna settle! He loves the attention and he’ll play a woman as long as she lets him. And if you leave him? So what. There’s another woman waiting around the corner to take your place. Turns out he’s been seeing her on the side anyway.

The Brainiac—Women are turned on by a certain part of a man where the bigger, the better. I’m talking about his brain, of course! We love a man who can challenge our intellect and enlighten us on a few subjects, whether it be politics, mechanical engineering, or whatever subject matter we’re lacking knowledge in. It’s sexy when a man can hold a stimulating conversation and actually look us in the eye. It doesn’t hurt when he can answer a few questions while playing Trivial Pursuit, either.

The Charmer—Charisma is extremely important. Nobody wants to end up with someone who will bore them out of their skull. It’s important to us that our man is appreciated by our friends and loved ones. He should have the wit and charm to hold folks in awe for hours on end. We want to hear them say “What a great guy! I like him. When is he coming around again?”

The Knight in Shining Armor—Let’s face it, women don’t like wimps. We want a man to protect us from danger, defend our honor, and carry our heavy groceries (not necessarily in that order). We want a strong man in our corner. Not that we’ll test him, but we basically want him to be able to kick someone’s butt if it comes down to that.

The Perfect Man—Does he exist? Some seem to have found him. This is the guy who fits a good chunk of the checklist items of what we want in a man. Handsome? Check. Got a job? Check. Watches chick flicks without complaining? Check. He may have some little quirks that we think are cute, but overall he’s all that, and then some. Sometimes he’s right in front of us and we don’t even realize it.

Five types of women that men go for

The Slut—It’s no secret that men are driven by what they see. The chicks that prance around in barely-there outfits and put themselves out there like walking sex billboards will definitely attract a man, but not for long. These women are the “Promiscuous” girls that Nelly Furtado sang about. They think it’s cute to get sloppy drunk and flash strangers. They feel empowered by having one-night stands and getting attention from as many men as they can. Without the shenanigans of these girls, Joe Francis of Girls Gone Wild fame would have been forced into another line of work.

The Knockout—She’s beautiful, she’s confident, and she knows how to get what she wants. All eyes are on her when she walks into a room. Mucho points for a man’s ego. Other men wish they could have her and women are slightly intimidated by her (although they won’t admit it).

The Challenge—Men love the thrill of the hunt. They want the woman that is attractive, smart, charming … and out of their reach. The woman who doesn’t fall all over them when other women do. The woman this is nonchalant or even slightly aloof regarding the fact that this man wants her so bad. She may even be his friend, but he just can’t quite get there.

The Submissive—These are women who will make a man feel like a man. She likes for him to take the bull by the horns in the relationship and she will cater to him no matter what. He won’t have to clean/take care of the kids/cook or do much of anything because she’s like his own personal servant.

The One You Can Take Home to Mama—This woman is just an all-around great catch. She gets along with his friends, understands him like no other, makes him laugh, shares his interests, stimulates his mind, maybe even lets him watch a game in peace every once in a while. She’s a keeper!

Women’s attractiveness judged by software

According to Haaretz, an Israeli team of computer scientists has developed a software that ranks facial attractiveness of women. Instead of identifying basic facial characteristics, this software has been designed to make aesthetic judgments — after training. The lead researcher said this program ‘constitutes a substantial advance in the development of artificial intelligence.’ It is interesting to note that the researchers focused on women only. Apparently, men’ faces are more difficult to grade. But read more…

The picture on the left shows how the system is initially calibrated: “Facial coordinates with hair and skin sample regions as represented by the facial feature extractor. Coordinates are used for calculating geometric features and asymmetry. Sample regions are used for extracting color values and smoothness.” (Credit: Amit Kagian, Tel Aviv University, Israel).

This software has been developed by Amit Kagian, a Tel Aviv University (TAU) student, for his master’s thesis in computer science. He has been supervised by Gideon Dror, an associate professor in computer science at the Academic College of Tel-Aviv-Yaffo and Eytan Ruppin, a TAU professor who manages the Complex Network Systems Lab.

Here are some details about how the software was tested. “In the first stage, 30 human participants were asked to rate from 1-7 the beauty of several dozen pictures. Participants did not say why they ranked certain faces as more beautiful than others. The pictures were then processed and mathematically mapped. ‘We came up with 98 numbers that represent the geometric shape of the face, as well as characteristics like hair color, smoothness of skin and facial symmetry,’ Kagian explains. Participants’ rankings of the pictures were also input in the computer.”

But what was the second stage? “‘We input new pictures of faces into the computer and it graded them based on the information it had.’ Human subjects were then asked to rank the new pictures too. ‘The computer produced impressive results: the rankings were very similar to the rankings people gave.’ According to Kagian, the key achievement is that the computer operated according to certain perceptions of beauty that were not input into it, but learned by processing the data it received.”

For more information, the researchers published their latest results in Vision Research, an Elsevier journal, under the name “A machine learning predictor of facial attractiveness revealing human-like psychophysical biases” (Volume 48, Issue 2, January 2008, Pages 235-243).

Here is a link to the abstract. “Recent psychological studies have strongly suggested that humans share common visual preferences for facial attractiveness. Here, we present a learning model that automatically extracts measurements of facial features from raw images and obtains human-level performance in predicting facial attractiveness ratings. The machine’s ratings are highly correlated with mean human ratings, markedly improving on recent machine learning studies of this task. Simulated psychophysical experiments with virtually manipulated images reveal preferences in the machine’s judgments that are remarkably similar to those of humans.” And here is a link to the full paper (PDF format, 10 pages, 625 KB).

And here is a paragraph excerpted from the conclusions. “Our analysis has revealed that symmetry is strongly related to the attractiveness of averaged faces, but is definitely not the only factor in the equation since about half of the image-features relate to the ratings of averaged composites in a similar manner as the symmetry measure. This suggests that a general movement of features toward attractiveness, rather than a simple increase in symmetry, is responsible for the attractiveness of averaged faces.”

The same researchers presented their previous results at the Neural Information Processing Systems (NIPS) conference held in Vancouver, Canada, on December 4-9, 2006. Here is a link to
this presentation called “A Humanlike Predictor of Facial Attractiveness” (PDF format, 8 pages, 78 KB). Here is the first paragraph. “This work presents a method for estimating human facial attractiveness, based on supervised learning techniques. Numerous facial features that describe facial geometry, color and texture, combined with an average human attractiveness score for each facial image, are used to train various predictors. Facial attractiveness ratings produced by the final predictor are found to be highly correlated with human ratings, markedly improving previous machine learning achievements. Simulated psychophysical experiments with virtually manipulated images reveal preferences in the machine’s judgments which are remarkably similar to those of humans.”

As you can see, there some shared words between these two works. The figure above is featured in both papers.

Finally, why did the researchers limit themselves to women? Haaretz says men’s faces are more difficult to rank.

What women want? Mr Long Legs

London: It’s not only men who are attracted to the physical attributes of women. When it comes to finding Mr Right, a new study has revealed that females too prefer long-legged males than their stumpier counterparts.

Researchers in Europe have carried out the study and found that taller people are more physically appealing to the opposite sex — in fact, people whose legs are five per cent longer than average are considered the most attractive,

regardless of their gender.

“There are good evolutionary reasons for the preference. Long legs are a sign of health,” The Guardian quoted lead researcher Boguslaw Pawlowski of University of Wroclaw in Poland as saying.

The researchers came to the conclusion after asking 218 male and female volunteers to rank the attractiveness of seven men and seven women from digitally altered images.

The team found that regardless of the volunteers’ own body shape and leg length, people whose legs were five per cent longer than average were rated as the most attractive.

The next most appealing was an average leg length, or those that were ten per cent longer than normal.

According to Prof Martin Tovee of the Newcastle University, longer legs are one of many subtle cues that suggest good health, especially in women. “Leg length is a good indicator of childhood nutrition in women because their legs stop growing once they reach puberty.”

“So if a woman has long legs it suggests she grew up in a good environment and that has a positive effect on fertility. The effect in men is more subtle, because their legs continue to grow beyond puberty,” he said.

Previous research has linked shorter legs with a higher risk of cardiovascular disease and obesity-related type II diabetes in both sexes.

Shorter-legged men are also more likely to have higher levels of triglycerides, which are linked to arterial disease and strokes.

So, moral of the story is If you got long lags then start impressing girls NOW……… I am sure they will not resist you…
