10 Qualities Women Really Want In Men by afonjaman: 7:41am On Mar 14, 2021
For thousands of years, what women really look out for in men has not really changed. The same set of qualities the cavewomen found incredibly attractive is very much the same city girls look out for in men.
The cavewomen desire men who were strong; who could hunt; who could protect them among other things. The modern-day woman looks out for the modern-day equivalent of those qualities.
The world has evolved from the stone age all the way to this age of technology but the basic instinct to choose mates out of a desire for self-preservation has not changed for women
At the back of their mind is the desire for safety, protection, and survival.
It would be too simplistic and quite frankly ignorant to assume that women only care about a man’s financial status before dating the man. There are tens of important qualities women look out for before opening up their hearts but we would be discussing only ten of them.
These qualities have varying weights or relevance when it comes to making a choice from an array of suitors women have to deal with.
The following are ten of those qualities:

Confidence
Most women associate masculinity with boldness, courage, and charisma. It's tolerable if a woman is shy or timid but it almost unforgivable for a man to be timid.
Confidence is one of the few qualities a woman notices almost immediately she meets a man. Every man that intends to have a place in a woman’s world is expected to have the barest minimum. This confidence could come in different shapes or forms. It comes in the man’s ability to face difficult situations; ability to speak in public places; ability to lead among others.

Women are literally mesmerized by confidence.

Good looks
Even though most people including women try to downplay a man’s physical appearance, the truth is this construct is false. Most women consider a man’s physical appearance before giving him a chance. If you don’t believe it, I will prove it to you.
Have you noticed in most relationships the man is taller? Why?
Simple, physical appearance is important.
Most women will not date nor marry a man shorter than them.
Other qualities women consider are muscular build, facial appearance, and facial hair.
Women associate facial hair with masculinity, strength, and dominance.
High social standing
Belonging to a higher social class is very important to women because of their strong desire for self-preservation.
Secondly, women naturally ‘date-up’ i.e they date men have a high social and financial status because such a man is assumed to bring more value into the relationship is able to provide for them what they cant provide for themselves.
Thirdly, Men with higher social standing are believed to wield a significant amount of social influence that benefits the relationship or the women in one way or the other.

High Income
All women without exception want a man that is able to provide at all times.
This has become more relevant than ever thanks to the uncertain economic and financial realities around the world.
A man with a low income is not even expected to be in a relationship let alone a man with no source of income.
Generally, it is assumed the higher your income, the higher your perceived social status, and the higher your chances of getting a high-quality woman.
Based on these facts, there are three types of men: High quality, medium quality, and low quality.
High-quality men earn over $80k per annum. They are able to afford basic needs, luxury and are never under any financial pressure
Medium quality men earn $25-$80k per annum. They are able to afford their basic need and occasionally able to afford the luxury.
Low-quality men earn less than $25k per annum. They struggle to meet their basic needs and have no access to luxury at all

Good social network
This is a measure of a man’s influence in his social space. This depends on the number of important personalities in his social space and how much power he wields.
A man’s social network is an index social wealth/capital that many women consider before giving him a chance.
This is very important in the business world and it determines how successful a man has become or would become.

Intelligence
Most women love and want men with high functioning brain capacity. This is more relatable to students who are still in school who have to navigate several academic hurdles. It is assumed that his intellect would add value to her.
In the business world, an intelligent man is an asset to his company and his social circle because he is able to provide meaningful insights into conversations and provide relevant solutions to problems. This feeling is very reassuring for most women.

Problem-solving ability
This is a skill that is not apparent at the beginning but that man would need to prove at some point during the relationship.
Women want someone they can talk to about their personal problems. Some they can trust to provide solutions to their problems consistently.
Women by nature like to share their problems with someone they love and trust. This is why it is important to them to have a listening ear and a problem solver in a mate

Emotional stability
Empirical facts suggest that women are more emotionally expressive and labile than men. They want to the exact opposite in men.
Women associate emotional stability with masculinity. A man who is too emotionally expressive comes off as needy and frankly unattractive.
The man is expected to find a wild balance between being measurably affectionate and being overly emotional.
Women hope to find emotional stability in their men

Responsibility
This is another quality that attracts women naturally. The ability to take responsibility in a social group is one that several women find ominous in their potential suitors.
The woman scrutinizes the man's level of responsibility in his family, his social group, and at work. This is a likely predictor of what a relationship with him might be.

Leadership
This is a bit controversial but I hope to weave my words carefully to please everyone.
Who leads in a relationship? Are couples partners? Is the man the head of the family?
Well, some women think so while others don’t.
While some women think men should lead they maintain they should have a voice and a stake in every decision making.
Others outrightly reject the idea of men leading. For them, it’s a partnership. The power dynamic is 50-50.
I am not sure what your answers to those are but what thing certain is women are naturally attracted to men with leadership qualities- they love men that can take charge.
Being able to lead means being responsible, decisive, organized, informed, and proactive.
A man who comes off as weak, indecisive, and confused is everything a woman despises.

Girls appreciates a focused man with determination, and hates a man been emotional. An emotional man is like a boy to them, no matter how old the man is. Secondly, Man needs to be able to support her financially and strategically.
