OK, I thought I was going to sign out and just continue in a holiday haze, yet, the lure of that wicked Facebook drew me in again, drat!!!!!
I had to share this with you all as it infuriates me!!!!!!!!
What is this??? Window shopping for eye candy or a side show in non-reality (male equivalent fairy stories)??????
Does this person exist, erm, well the title is surely a give away; ‘Anatomy of a Perfect Woman’! As though one of those exists outside the realms of Photoshop!!!!!
Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but women are human too!!! We have spots, bad breath, have hairy bodies, wrinkles, saggy bits, have periods, we sweat, we get angry, we diet and dye our hair, we apply make-up and we don’t laugh at inane jokes! WE ARE PEOPLE NOT OBJECTS like manikins in shop windows, if you don’t like that REALITY then sling your hook!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I DON’T want to put down ALL men! I am aware there are PLENTY of GOOD GUYS out there who are lovers of ALL WOMEN and don’t treat woman like objects! Not all men think like Men’s Health magazine think they do, nor are they all idiots who only think in such shallow terms.
However, there are men out there who do.
I suppose I am fed up with hearing SOME men’s scrutinising perspectives and assumptions on women.
I wonder if, and what the Woman’s Health magazine say about their perfect man????? Nothing I suppose, because woman aren’t supposed to want one of those, we should accept a man as a man. ALSO, a perfect man doesn’t exist, there isn’t one out there!!!
The reason for this is REALITY; WE ARE ALL PEOPLE, men AND woman alike! We are different and more than just what we look like!!!!!!!! I mean Prince Charming doesn’t exist, us ladies learn that one quick enough. I just wish some men would learn that Princess Charming doesn’t exist either, it would do them a HUGE favour!

I have to agree. 🙂
Thanks Ken, appreciate your comment as always 🙂
why are men and women obsessed with how their other half looks!? if it’s too much trouble, they should remain single, i mean why should I have to turn myself into a living barbie to be some blokes arm decoration or why should i expect some living ken doll or a steroid addled douche to be my arm candy? if i want to be with somebody, i want to be with a human being who has a great personality , not some boring multi millionaire!
Hi Shelley,
Thanks for your comment and input into this topic. I appreciate it.
I’m not sure why; I suppose people are obsessed with ‘looks’ and what they appear like to others. It seems to be in this society all that truly counts or matters!
I too feel the same; I am a human being and more than the sum of my body parts, and face. I like to be valued for being me, not for what value I bring to the table with my looks. Looks mean nothing in the grand scale of things!
Agreed, money cannot buy personality, or anything else – yet, some people think it can, and are happy for it to. Money helps people sell themselves short – or for a Gucci handbag or whatever other price tag they have in mind.
Thanks again for your comment,
Bex 🙂
return.
a perfect woman/man is in the eyes of the beholder. its a shame that the world these days is so image based. i for one teach my children that using your manners and being polite will get you many places. that there are mean people in the world that will always put you down no matter how big your boobs are or how tiny your waist is. true beauty comes from within. looks wont last forever. ive found that some of the best looking men dont treat you so well seeing as they think they can always find better. thankfully not all men are like this and more and more men seem to be opening there eyes and seeing woman for what we really are……… real.
Thank you once again Annie for your input and considered response. It is good to know you are not instilling ‘image is everything’ into your own children. Beauty does come from within, you are totally right! It is a shame the world is based on image though; an all that glitters IS gold culture! I know not all people or men consider appearance as everything, yet, there are plenty who do. Pursuit of this above and beyond any other quality is a shame, as people are missing out on everything above and beyond fragile beauty. Looks don’t last, that is true!!! Whether you are a model or a lawyer you will always require more than your looks to truly succeed in life.
Thanks again Annie!!!!! Bex 🙂
Well, she’s not my idea of a ‘perfect’ woman. That’s the thing; they’re generalising it for every man, when I’d like to think that each individual with have their own individual preferences.
I don’t get too hung up on superficial things like looks. I seem to be drawn to women who dye their hair red (three in four years!) but I’m really not too fussed beyond that. As long as someone takes pride in their own appearance and has a nice smile or eyes then, it’s enough for me.
I guess articles like these also draw the question of what ‘average men’ want from women…. :-S
I’ve flicked through one of those Men’s Health magazines while waiting for the GP before and I realised I was clearly expecting far too much from the publication! 😛
Hey, thank you once again for your comment 🙂
Yeah, I think that is true – over generalisation, and I would think too that men, like women have their own individual preferences.
Well good looks are nice, but not all that glitters is gold (so they say)! I think there is usually one thing that initially draws your attention to another person, and I think hair colour and eyes are no doubt the first things. Well, some men will no doubt disagree and say breast size.
Average man – what does he want????? Average woman what does she want???? What is average????
Definitely, it is quite corny and a very commercial publication, where the health aspect is definitely lost in this article!
pflead73 I retract my last reply, I feel I need to explain what I think more clearly or face feeling I am letting myself down 🙂
I don’t live my life in reference to check-lists, I NEVER have!
If people do, well then that is up to them.
I don’t apply value in just one thing about a person though, I look at the whole package!
Appearance is great, but neither that nor intellect can con me into selling myself short. I value a ‘good’ person, a genuine, kind, caring and loving person. They for me are the ‘perfect’ person!
Even attractive people can be arse-holes, but then I suppose if people are only looking for sex they don’t care so much about the person inside the body.
Bex 🙂
Being ‘genuine’ …you nailed it there 🙂
Yup,people who are genuine and confident about who they are.
And yes, the ‘good’, genuine people ( imagine a genuine asshole who is confident about himself 😀 .. )
Yeah, you have to be genuine or there is nothing but charade!
Confidence also is something that cannot be measured as a physical quality, but it can definitely attract a person.
Yes, I can imagine that one; I have seen quite a few of these and not just men either 🙂
lol….that pic is so funny 😀 …btw I don’t agree with point 2….I feel more attracted to women who are elder than me!
Thanks for your comment, appreciate the feedback as it is interesting to know what the men think about this!!!
I thought it was funny too 🙂
So, only point 2; does that mean the rest you do agree with?????
Bex 🙂
Not completely…they may be valid under certain cases 😀 ….but I have never felt attracted to gal who is younger than me!
Hey, thanks again for your comment 🙂
OK, so they will remain on your check-list of wants then, bar the credential of youth!
Well, I suppose check-lists in certain circumstances are the way forward. I know I use them too for personality, and I am not adverse to stipulating what I find attractive in a man also, well, admittedly I am not the type of person to dismiss people because they don’t fit a check-list either!
However I will say big breasts aren’t on my male check-list!
Bex 🙂
Girls with these traits do attract attention…No man would deny that…
But just like u said even I don’t tend to dismiss girls just because they don’t fit the check-list….
Abhi 🙂
Hi Abhi,
Yeah, tall dark and handsome; oh, sorry that describes a man! Seems as though most men want exactly what most women want; no wonder there is so much disappointment in the world, hehe!
Well, that is good to hear!!!!
Bex 🙂
ha ha ha true, Savy 😉
Thank you Nafees!
welcome Bex 🙂 women worth, I’ve my own awesome quote vitality of women, ll post soon.
OK, well I hope it won’t be anything like Men’s Health magazines version!
Maybe something about personality and intellect would be a nice change, instead of ‘breast sizes’!
Bex 🙂
ha ha ha yeah, you’re so funny Bex, and I like that 😉
Ummmmmm……..is this what “culture” has come to?
Who is this “perfect” woman being marketed to?
Where is the arrow pointing to her brain saying “intellect?”
ugh
Thanks for your comment!!!!
I agree Paul! Ridiculous really, as who knows some man out there might decide he should only date that woman, if he can find her!
I just think it is something that shouldn’t be endorsed by a ‘health’ magazine. What has this got to do with health???
Yep, again intellect doesn’t matter so long as the sexual bits and smile are intact! Why do they not then just purchase a doll!!!
Thanks again!
Bex 🙂
well, some people do purchase a doll! (not i though haha).
Talk to ya soon,
-Paul
Yeah that is true, BUT some people should use dolls!!!!!
I am glad to hear YOU prefer the real woman though, hehe!!!
Talk soon, take care!
Bex 🙂
