Matthew briggs: I respect the choices of others especially those that are afraid or detest confident women.
But I would like us not to confuse confidence for stubbornness or pride. once again I respect your taste and choices.

Personally I love women with a fine blend of confidence & humility. A woman that believes in herself, her ideas , convictions and dreams, she's hardly swayed by public opinions. A woman that is very comfortable in her own skin. She is goal driven and takes initiative.

Confident women are smart. They engage your mind, They bring ideas to the table, They add value to a relationship instead of taking it, they make you sit up as a man. They are have strong character and will.

She will be a Michelle to your Obama, she can hardly fall your hand any place but instead take you higher.

When a confident woman loves you, She truly does, Because in the first place she can do without you, but chooses not.

Blessed is the man that can Tame them. Moreover if you are not a very confident, intelligent and of strong character you can't handle or tame them.

Three core things that I find attractive in a woman is Confidence, intelligence and sex-appeal with her being God fearing by default.

NB:- The sad thing is that majority of people (men and women) mistake proud, stubborn and assertive women as confident women which should not be so.

pleep: Then the 'confident' ladies should go for the shy men.... that way the equation would balance.

However, yall would rather get with confident men and complain. Confident men generally want submissive women...thats not our fault. You have a million shy men who are dying for some play, why dont u get with them?

There is a solution to every problem if you would just stop complaining and take it

Raggedy_Ann:

A confident man knows his self worth and does not need to debase a woman to validate his masculinity. There's no inferiority complex. Confident men can handle a woman`s intelligence and big personality.

The confidence I mean is borne out of intellectual excellence and not the one that comes from swinging a d*ck (that would be chauvinism). Chauvinistic men want submissive women

I got a confident man and he`s given me absolutely no reason to complain.

simdam500: An ideal woman, a girl friend or a life partner must exude confidence. Gone are the days when men crave for anopportunity to be a knight in shining armor. They don’t like weaklings or delicate darlings, but smart, street intelligent and confident women who know what they are doing and what needs tobe done. A confident woman is determined and head strong, and it’s what guys look for beyond looks or sex appeal. Here are 6 reasons why men like confident women.

1. Confident women are decision makers
A confident woman who takesdecisions on her own alwaysattracts a man. A man doesn’t like if a woman always depends on him for making any small or big decisions, he would respect and appreciate her if she takes advice, but listens to what her mind and heart says and make decisions in life.

2. Confident women have a great personality
Confidence is a factor that always adds on to a person’s personality. It creates a certain charm about the person. A confident woman would carryherself with grace and style. With confidence a woman looks charming and strong, and this really attracts men.

Logicboy03: Nonsense,

Infact there are many men who like shy women. A confident woman might have gained that confidence from being a village bicycle.

Confidence does not equal brave, courageous or being a good decision maker.

oleku baby:
Nigerian Men hates/ dislike a woman as confident as the op described. Only real men, and I mean real men who can subscribed to dating / marrying confident women. Some Nigerian men are just full of braggadoo n not depth. Sorry to say.

van bonattel:

Another class of men not afraid of confident women are brutes, those who will slap the jezebels out of her eyes and kick some sense into her butts

OLE-BRUKU:
If u as a guy no get confidence in u, den u nid get a confident lady to make u complete. Bt make sure say d lady no dey TOO confident cos u myt b forced to beat d TOO out of her one day...

tintingz: yes... a confident man will always recieve a daily dose of headache from his over confident wife

Odenigbo Aroli.:


My first post in this thread was "most confident women makes bad wives" and I still stand by my words irrespective of how you people try to twist it around. Confidence can be good in the work place, its an asset, but at home its a vice. I am yet to see a confident woman at work that is not a terrorist at home, except she is married to a more deranged man who will intimidate her with more madness should she try anything from the office at home. Most confident women end up divorced, do you agree?

solidbroda: Confident women are good on bed

kulyie: so getting violent is a 'brute's' way of displaying confidence.hahahaha the brute is one lucky guy,you know why?because he didnt marry any of my female relatives because if he did and had violent and aggresive tendencies like you stated here,he will most likely have been locked in the guard room with heavily built soildiers beating the living day light out of him for a long time,at least that one will make him experience raw,first hand violence and like yorubas will say every mad man has his own oga,he will meet them plenty for guardroom

kulyie: i dont agree so all not to confident women at work are excellent wives at home abi.if that is the case the likes of ibukun awosika should have been a single woman or single mother for life na

kulyie: if a man is not suffering from insecurity,inferiority or superiority complex,a wife's confidence,progress and sucess in her field is supposed to make him proud of her and himself and not having headache,the headache indicates a sign of jealousy,anger in her confidence and fear,so....fill in the gap yourself :p

van bonattel:

Na lie, the success will bring out the beast in the woman, and she will come to see her husband as slow and stuupid. Next she will keep the man at home to be feeding the babies and washing her panties.

kulyie: hehehehehhe wonderful,how can you be seeing your wife's success,confidence and high status as a threat to you and think she will be doing that to you.anyway all this boils down to the reason why you got married to her in the first place.if you married for the right reasons you will be proud of her confidence but if you marry for the wrong reasons you will see her as a competitor,rival and her confidence will be a threat to your ego and manhood.meanwhile all those fears are figments of your own imaginations or what you are capable of doing

van bonattel:

Have you ever seen a successful and yet humble woman? Name her?

van bonattel:

You don go her house?

kulyie: i have not gone to her house but a family friend invited me for her wedding anniversary and during the celebration,i saw where she knelt down in public for her husband thanking her husband of giving her the opportunity of being who she is today,i dont see an arrogant woman being able to do this,so for her to kneel down in public for her husband,even though i dont live with her,i know she is the kind of woman that will 6old her husband in high esteem despite who she is finacially in the society

misterseed: And they make great mothers too. Happy mothers day.

pleep: according to the standard definition that is not a confident woman.

Most "confident women" accoridng to modern societies definition would consider that degrading. patriarchal oppression lol

pleep: kulyie you love confident women to death.

Get you one already! stop trying to justify it

van bonattel:

You are forgetting something, the guy could be an army colonel, sorry.

Okiki_Oluwa: Yawns! I like confident women.
