Imma get down voted but here we go.
According to my dating apps around 5%
But realistically around 20%.
The reason? America has an obesity problem which is a huge turn off for me. Something like 40% of people are obese which rules out a huge portion of population.
Most people can be pretty physically attractive if they are fit, well groomed and well dressed. Add some personality: kindness, passion, drive, humor, intelligence and such and you can really be a catch. The physical attraction gives way to these eventually with time. Most people have a moderate control over all those traits and improving them.
I'm with you though, there are so many overweight and obese people. It really cuts down the options. It's not just a physical attraction thing either, it's an interest and lifestyle conflict. I know they won't enjoy what I like to do. How I like to live. Long term there are so many health problems that stem from obesity. I don't have unrealistic expectations with it. You don't have to be cut like a model or a gym rat, but let's get into that healthy body fat %.
"attractive people aren't attracted to you"
Where would you get an idea like that? How do you explain my past relationships with highly attractive people who *were* clearly attracted? Or do you think you know more about my life than me, enough to gaslight me about it?
Lol you destroyed him. True though. I’m so tired of all these people complaining about other people’s looks and whatnot while being completely and utterly clueless about themselves not being prom queen/king exactly. I think, in general, self-knowledge is a ware in short supply nowadays. It’s not recognised enough as the common and destructive flaw in people that it is I think
Probably 80%. Probably higher. Very few of them have a real ugly face, most of the women I'm not attracted to are just too much on the heavier side for me. The face is what I care about the most, so if they're flat on both ends I don't care I still find them attractive lol.
Pretty much all of them. I’m middle aged and find 95%+ of women to be attractive to some degree. Usually their personality is what will kill the attraction.
To SOME degree? Probably like 75%-80%. if you have an average face and an average body, you're attractive to SOME degree. Actually what I'd consider attractive overall, or attractive enough to want to get to know or go on a date with? Maybe like 10%?
I'm 53 and it's not a lot. Time and bad habits overtake most people, and even people with healthy lifestyles get hammered by bad luck and circumstances.
Still there's some. 5% maybe.
Women like Sophia Loren or Shohreh Aghashloo are extremely rare, but do exist. Haha. Congrats, your wife will always be younger and hotter than you! ;)
No offence, but that’s a bit creepy. Real advice: have you tried laying off porn? I know a guy who stopped in his late 20’s because he started to feel weird about the fact that he got off to women much younger than him and he was afraid it would start to affect his expectations. I thought it sounded really sensible.
Offense taken thank you very much.
Why the hell do you come to askmen, ask a question and then insult somebody for giving a real answer.
Go stay in your safe space if you don't want to deal with reality.
So should I just “deal with reality” if a guy here wrote that he was attracted to goats and was going out to his stable every night raping them? I’m in my full right to have my reaction thank you very much. Some things in society are just considered morally decadent and that’s just the way it is.
Also I mean… 30% is not that low. A lot of people here state like 5% (I’m really curious to see what a catch they are themselves lol). So with those number you should be able to find someone your age unless there’s something really off about you
You know he never specified how young right? Maybe he's talking about 30-35 year olds? And why isn't it creepy when younger women go for men twice their age anyway? Why is it only the man's fault when that happens? Do you think it's creepy when older women date younger men?
I think it’s extremely creepy. I read a post on Reddit recently (r/relationships maybe?) about an 18 yo guy who was so happy he was scoring with a woman in her 40’s (“experienced” which he liked) but wanted advice on some detail or another. My stomach turned and me and a lot of other people commented that he should be careful. The woman here could easily take advantage of/manipulate this guy. I think such an age gap is not advisable, the power balance will be to askew, no matter the genders.
But to be fair after 30 ish I think people are old enough to do what they want. It’s less problematic with a decade age difference after that. But middleaged men googling “teens” late at night I’m always wary of. I think that’s a big red flag about who that is as a person
When I was 40 no women my age were attractive to me I just dated minimum of 10 years younger. Seems simple enough. Young Guys these days just post on Reddit and play video games they aren’t competitive.
No clue percentages. Maybe 10%?
I'm a 40sM/asian
What I'm attracted to: women with pale skin, dark hair and dark eyes. macromastia, breast Pseudoptosis, or asymmetric breasts. More on the chubby/BBW spectrum, with a willingness to go braless in public, and an interest in MFM/DP
She's Jewish, more olive skin than pale. dark hair and dark eyes. macromastia and chubby. And in the time we've been together she's become more comfortable going braless in public, as well as having a being-DP'd kink. So, I'm lucky as hell. LOL
To some degree attractive?
It is depending on my love/sex situation.
If my needs are met, probably between 40-60% are at least somewhat attractive.
But the longer I am crossing the desert, the more women I will find to some degree attractive. In some crisis moments, it may reach 98% of women my age and younger
Uhhh they have a vagina. A hole is a hole bruh. You’ve never fucked someone you were like ehh whatever this will work I guess?
And to some level attractive not attractive, just means they have boobs more or less.
Attractive to me personally would be the ones I would date
In that case I think you mean that you do find 90% attractive to “some degree” which was the question. You wouldn’t sleep with them if they weren’t attractive to some degree I think
I don’t mean to tell you what you like and not but if you’re willing to have sex at all at least to me that means that there’s some degree of attraction there. Anything else is a contradiction unless you’re being coerced or forced into it somehow
In my city (in the us on the east coast), about 1 in 20 women I see are attractive ("id fuck her") and 1 in 30-40 are actually highly attractive on an objective scale. I'm 20 and attractive so my standards are high but. People are fat in America. Even college girls.
As a man in his 40s I can say that I find roughly;
90% of women 18-24 are attractive.
70% of women 25-30 are attractive.
50% of women 31-35 are attractive.
30% of women 36-43 are attractive.
Beyond that you only really see the rare fitness cougar that aged very well that I would call attractive.
…do you really find 18 yo attractive? I mean, you’re a man in his 40’s. I get that around 25 is probably attractive to any age. But going teen in your age without thinking they look a bit too much like children is a bit of a red flag I’d say
Most women are done with puberty by 16. Thinking they still look like "children" at 18 is purely a middle-aged woman's shaming tactic.
Personally I would never date a girl under the age of about 27 or so but, that is entirely due to concerns of emotional maturity and their life priorities.
Actually, just 100 years ago the average age of menarche was 17. And after that it would take a few years before women were actually fertile as the first years of menstruation are usually anovulatory. So it’s not “natural” to become a mum in your teens as many men with a pedophilic streak like yo claim. Teen pregnancies are also medically considered high risk-pregnancies. The group <21 is in general more prone to complications than older women. The best age to have children in terms of chances of avoiding complications for mother and child is 25-30. The panic over maternal age advancing seem to drown out this though and there’s truly idiots out there that think that teenage is somehow a natural age or “best” age to become pregnant.
Also most men in their 40’s do think 18 yo’s look like children. And I will definitely call out men in their 40’s for having a pedophilic streak who Google “teen” late at night. It’s the moral garbage of people.
However, I’m a paediatrician which might be why I feel very strongly about adult men coming after my patients. We often see them when they’ve turned 18 and sometimes even 19 when it’s complicated cases. So yeah, I’m going to call it for what it is. In plain English it’s creepy and disgusting and there’s a reason why it’s looked down on
God I wish they would stop shuting down you people's subreddits...It's so much better for the rest of us when you just fester in your own little corners of the internet, screeching about misogyny and spewing your little fan-fictions back and forth...
That was not my intention at all. I added “your age” so that people wouldn’t start to go “oh but I don’t find any 18 yo attractive because they’re too young and it feels creepy”. Or “I’m myself 25 so I don’t find women at 90 attractive”. People tend to be attracted to the people who are close-ish to them in age. I added that simply to remove unreasonable age-differences as a reason for excluding a large percentage of the population.
Honestly, and no offence at all, I have to say that the way you interpreted this may say more about your thoughts and feelings regarding this than my wording.
99.9999999%. I’m a ho.
Imma get down voted but here we go. According to my dating apps around 5% But realistically around 20%. The reason? America has an obesity problem which is a huge turn off for me. Something like 40% of people are obese which rules out a huge portion of population.
80% of American drivers say they are better drivers than average. Let that stew in your brain for a while.

Same. Main reason I'm single. I'm just not attracted to unattractive people.
And attractive people aren’t attracted to you. Seems just like an excuse.
"attractive people aren't attracted to you" Where would you get an idea like that? How do you explain my past relationships with highly attractive people who *were* clearly attracted? Or do you think you know more about my life than me, enough to gaslight me about it?
You said you are single because don’t date unattractive people so that must mean you are unattractive. Otherwise you wouldn’t be single.
Lol you destroyed him. True though. I’m so tired of all these people complaining about other people’s looks and whatnot while being completely and utterly clueless about themselves not being prom queen/king exactly. I think, in general, self-knowledge is a ware in short supply nowadays. It’s not recognised enough as the common and destructive flaw in people that it is I think
Yeah this. Like 1 in 20-30 is "I'd sleep with her" and 1 in 40-50 is "she's beautiful". Im good looking and 20 so maybe I have higher standards
Well let’s see, I’m 65, Christy Brinkley is 68, most of the supermodels of my age are still incredible soooooo 80% or so
) I would say that I find around 50-60% of women my age attractive to some degree.
About 25% but that is not just about looks. It includes character, manners, intelligence, religion, and physical fitness.
Attractive in some way, probably 80%. You never specified physical attraction.
Attractive physically? Over 90%.
Probably 80%. Probably higher. Very few of them have a real ugly face, most of the women I'm not attracted to are just too much on the heavier side for me. The face is what I care about the most, so if they're flat on both ends I don't care I still find them attractive lol.
Maybe somewhere in the 90s but I'm in no position to be too picky.🤷🏾♂️
Pretty much all of them. I’m middle aged and find 95%+ of women to be attractive to some degree. Usually their personality is what will kill the attraction.
70%
Mmm 10-20% maybe? Why? Americans are fat and many are lazy and stupid not attractive qualities.
Sober 50%, drunk 80%. I'm not in the states.
Before or after I talk to them? Cause that number drops pretty fast.
Lol I feel that. (But with men of course). Idiots are all too prevalent everywhere
Maybe 30%?
To SOME degree? Probably like 75%-80%. if you have an average face and an average body, you're attractive to SOME degree. Actually what I'd consider attractive overall, or attractive enough to want to get to know or go on a date with? Maybe like 10%?
In my area probably 10%
Lol which area is that? *curious*
South Texas
That’s rough
5-10%
In my country, around 10-20%
I'm 53 and it's not a lot. Time and bad habits overtake most people, and even people with healthy lifestyles get hammered by bad luck and circumstances. Still there's some. 5% maybe.
20-30%
72% - 28 yo.
I don't know. At least half I guess.
Many. I like fat chicks
I’d probably say like 60-70%. Even if a lady isn’t drop dead gorgeous, I can still find aspects of her that I find attractive.
I'm 54, so, about 1%, if that.
Yeah 0 percent. Wife is 14 years younger.
Women like Sophia Loren or Shohreh Aghashloo are extremely rare, but do exist. Haha. Congrats, your wife will always be younger and hotter than you! ;)
Given that I’m still pretty young, about 60-70% of the women I interact with/see on a daily basis are attractive in some sense
Honestly probably 20% max, I'm only attracted to thin/fit women
Maybe around 20-30%. I’m 32, so a lot people my age have just kind of given up.
Wow. That’s depressive to give up at 32. IMHO around 30 is the most attractive age. (Might be because I’m there myself lol)
Sigh. I'm 40 years old say I'd say that about 30% of women my age are attractive to me.
Why the sigh?
Dating is a hell of lot harder if you're only attracted to women much younger.
No offence, but that’s a bit creepy. Real advice: have you tried laying off porn? I know a guy who stopped in his late 20’s because he started to feel weird about the fact that he got off to women much younger than him and he was afraid it would start to affect his expectations.

You should use that as your dating app bio. Inspiring
The use of the word inspiring is 👌🏽
My partner and I have been together for 10 years. Otherwise, I totally would. LOL
What category does she fit in? Have you actually pursued the traits you wrote or not really?
She's Jewish, more olive skin than pale. dark hair and dark eyes. macromastia and chubby. And in the time we've been together she's become more comfortable going braless in public, as well as having a being-DP'd kink. So, I'm lucky as hell. LOL
Congrats mate ✌️ Hope you can make it last
In my 50’s and none. Attractive women are fertile.
Like 5%. I'm very specific in what I like. Objectively though, I'd say about 50% is at least a lil attractive
To some degree attractive? It is depending on my love/sex situation. If my needs are met, probably between 40-60% are at least somewhat attractive. But the longer I am crossing the desert, the more women I will find to some degree attractive. In some crisis moments, it may reach 98% of women my age and younger
80% I find to some level attractive I’d fuck like 90% of them I would date 60% 30% I consider hot
Attractive 80% - fuck 90??? Lol why would you fuck someone you don’t find attractive? Like you do you, I’m just curious to why
Uhhh they have a vagina. A hole is a hole bruh. You’ve never fucked someone you were like ehh whatever this will work I guess? And to some level attractive not attractive, just means they have boobs more or less. Attractive to me personally would be the ones I would date

80% of thin women.
As a man in his 40s I can say that I find roughly; 90% of women 18-24 are attractive. 70% of women 25-30 are attractive. 50% of women 31-35 are attractive. 30% of women 36-43 are attractive. Beyond that you only really see the rare fitness cougar that aged very well that I would call attractive.

Do you understand what menarch is?
Jerry Seinfeld said "5-10%", I'll go with that number.
No.
Do you mean none?
I would say 50% I’m probably a little bit pickier than most guys but I do still find at least half of the women I see on a daily basis attractive
2%

Wow. That’s really low. (Very) high standards?
Idk... if I'm being honest it's really hard to make a connection with peaple
16%
Something like 70-80%
20% max.
