Men Tend to Be Clueless About Unattainable Women

There has always been the perception that regular Joes (those that don’t have the good looks of Brad Pitt or the financial resources of a hot stock broker or big time lawyer for example and the confidence of Donald Trump) tend to still think they have a shot at landing super babes that may be way out of their league. 

Most women I know say they’ve been approached by numerous men who definitely wouldn’t be approaching them if they had the sense to know that they are approaching someone who was out of their league and flat out was not interested.  In past posts, we’ve even talked about how men tend to misread physical and verbal cues from women when they are not interested, and tend to think they are interested when either they are not interested at all or are just being nice and not interested in the romantically. 

What does this say about men?  Not necessarily that their egos are huge, but that their sexual desires are such a driving force that they tend to ignore common sense and go for those women who may not have one lick of interest in them romantically.  They tend to overlook their own unattractiveness in a physical sense or their profession when hitting on women, and it’s a tendency that more men have than don’t have.

The funny thing is, the less attractive a guy is, the more likely he is to fearlessly pursue a beautiful women, perhaps because he perceives he has less to lose than the GQ model guy, or that he really has no shame and is extremely modest.  Ladies, this should be a tip for you to give these average shmucks a chance maybe, you may end up with someone with a heart of gold instead of a preening shallow ballerina, right?

It may also be because men perceive that while men are more geared toward looks and are more likely to overlook a woman’s personality or intellectual flaws (at least at first), women are more likely to look for men who have other attributes other than just good looks such as integrity, financial security, a sense of humor, self deprecation and other factors that women tend to think of – oh, and maybe whether the guy makes a good candidate as that father of their children some day.
