I think the underlying reason is that they aim to be the most attractive to the men that they come into contact with on a night out or whatever.

On the other hand I don't think men bother so much about getting ready to go out. They don't take ages with their hair and clothes and tend to automatically think they look good without making a huge effort.

I wonder if this is because in humans the female has evolved the instinct to attract the mate, rather than the male.

I know this sounds academic but do you think there is truth in this?


It's really as much or more about improving (or maintaining) one's social standing as anything else. Well groomed and attractive people tend to do better in life for superficial reasons. Other people like people who smell nice and are nice to look at.

It's to do with self confidence and standing with peers including other women. Personal pride. Some others enjoy fashion.

Attracting a male, unless a woman is actively doing so in her life at that point in time, is really last on the list.

Ive highlighted a few of the quotes I wanted to address in this process of elimination to be sure ive quoted accurately what it is others are saying.
Firstly I know why women put on makeup before we go out, its mainly to feel good. enhanced beauty can create optimal illusion but for some reason or other, girls do it because they are not confident within themselves and want to mimic women older than them.
Stuff related to hairdos is a myth as not everyone can pull off a beehive or the blonde bombshell look, whilst people who don't feel natural with their body parts try to create more awareness of their own development to categorise a look within themselves.
Like I used to have long hair in my early teens and im brunette but I grew weary of maintaining it as split ends were costly and so was the shampoo so ive been short bobbed for well nearly ten years and it has paid off as I believe in heightened masculine feminitnity.
Do men put in the same effort required of status quo or not? most men ive seen tend to slick back some gel in a car whilst driving with one hand mobile in another and then realise that no one is driving at all, whilst some do it shortly before a date and others would rather feminise their appeal whilst putting in maximum effort to pull off a stiller foundation.
The last bit sounds like men have evolved to not repeat the same mistakes whilst women do their best now to avoid having any, so the real question is Have humans evolved intellectually and can women and men stage their own charisma in this day of age that attracts wisdom to both of the sexes or- is their more life on venus than mars in this day of evolution.

You can only do so much with your body type,all the dieting in the world will not give me a wasp waist or longer legs.I am not built that way.


Just the same way I'm not going to start having 80% of my food intake be supplements and taking illegal growth hormones to reach the body level that schneekugel and others talk about. Not only is it not healthy i don't think it is attractive at all.
the only reason i said ryan stopped using roids was because he kept harrassing me on fb. truth is once you use roids at all you can never claim to ever be natural again. He has used roids in the past at huge doses, and barely put any effort into lifting..and still didnt really make gains. It gets annoying because ipost my status updaes on fb to log my workouts and he keeps trying to compete with me, but im natural, and im way stronger than him, and he jsut psoted vids today using terrible form and said he iss tronger than me lol.

in his first vid he is using a smith machine which is way easier than free weights, he also fails the lift at the very bottom, and the bar on the smith is way lighter. he couldnt do 205 if he used a free weight bar, and didnt have the spotter.

in the second vid he is squatting 450 on a smith machine which is wayyy easier, an dhe goes down one inch lol.

he claims he benched 270 and squatted 450 but he couldnt do 205 and 225 on real bars by himself to proper forms.
he also uses steroids.

it annoys me seeing him talk s**t to me when ive been lifting the proper way for so long, and i can bench 320 with perfect form on a freeweight bench, and my squat is about 320 as well bc i herniated my back a long time ago.

if i used his form i could bench 385(im not even using hyperbole i literally could) and i could squat about 600 lol.
ive never used a roid in my life, and in fact i have low testosterone levels and if i wanted to i could get steroids prescribed.
here are his vids.

Looking thick, solid, tight.

Also has a bright future if he makes his own powerlifting fed where only he himself competes and 1/4 squats and half benches are counted and done on Smith Machines. Maybe dreams can come true after all. I wish him luck in this endeavor.

I'm happy I have natural mesomorph privilege. But it's hard to get mega ultra ripped abs that way. But at least I look hyoogzors with a tshirt on.

mesomorphs can get ripped and BIG easily, you prob are endo if you have trouble getting ripped especially because your diet is healthy.
