writes: First things first, I'm not gay nor do I have anything against them. I have very a feminine outlook on things and I am sexist to my own gender. When I tell girls this, I get the feeling that they think I'm saying it just to make them attracted to me or I'm just gay. This hasn't effected me much yet but I think it will in the future. Should I be honest or act more masculine about things? Reply to this Question Share |
Fancy yourself as an agony aunt? Add your answer to this question! A

Otherwise girls may like you, but be put off if they don't know you very well, and wonder if you could be gay. I'm not saying you act gay! Far from, I'm sure. I'm just trying to say that there is a happy balance of the two, and it's just finding it :]

So don't offer this information. If she asks you a question pertaining to these issues or a situation happens to come up, tell your honest opinion and don't be afraid of what she will think. As she gets to know you, she will see that you are a man with a feminine side and she will love it!! Let her learn your ways instead of offering it to her. In the end, you want someone who is going to love you for you, and not for the dishonest man you are portraying.

You will find women will only be attracted to you in a friendship capacity. Like a gay friend that gets to hear all their relationship problems. I think its important for you to work on your assertiveness if you want viable relationships in the future. Few woman wants a shrinking violet.
Good luck.

Your type has its fans, it's just usually gonna be a much smaller group than the masculine type though.
Hey, what is so wrong with masculinity anyway?
I hope you realize that most of the female gender is only TELLING guys to be more modernized & feminine. That doesn't mean the girls will actually want the guys like you when they come across one.
A lot of girls will thank you from the bottom of their hearts for being so much "better" than most guys. But they will go right on sleeping with the masculine guys instead of you anyway.
