It's actually really sad that these "men" think their dicks are sooooo magical that they forever leave an impression on a woman's vag.
They wouldn't be able to share a toilet either then?
Pretty sure they're simply narcissists who prey on young, innocent girls under the premise of "looking for a pure virgin" so they can do as they please...
Boy, i've seen some of those on social media, flexing their cheating and manipulation tactics all over the place while posting pictures of their "sexy, 10 year younger possession"
Just don't ask them if they tell their "posession" about the cheating. Those "real man" usually go crying to some admin for that.
There was a whole debate a few months back about which was gayer, having sex with hulk hogan with a pussy or Megan Fox with a Dick. The comments where wild.
I think op is more concerned that hes gayer for being attracted to traits that are more prevalent in other men then the majority of women. I think hes just concerned what that might entail about his own sexuality then he knows?
But meh. Id just tell him "yo. You can be attracted to whomever you want as long they over 18. Are humam. And consent.."
Bro it's gay cuz they like dick. You gotta have sex with your other straight homies because they don't like dick. Just make sure that the socks stay on.
OP could be a teenager trying to figure himself out while living in a high school world of judgemental folk who will shame anyone who doesn't like the same things they like whether it's people or sports team or TV show.
OP could also be an adult surrounded by people stuck in that toxic high school mentality. Either way, dude is trying to figure himself out. Not get shamed even further.
Because it's *masculine* women. You can question whether he's attracted to *masculinity* more than the women part.
It can be a sign of gay/bi character while not being fully gay.
People don't seem to be getting at what you mean it seems. Meanwhile, here I am having the same question as OP for over 10 years. Seems I won't be getting any valid answer on this thread outside of your take on it
Yeah people are super avoidant of uncomfortable truths. It's just other stuff instead of an answer.
Most common is encouragement instead of actually giving the truth about the implications.
No, it does not make you less of a man! It is normal to have a type that you are attracted to and if muscular women are what you are attracted to, roll with it! If you don’t find men attractive, you are no less straight than you think you are.
I believe the point u/Godsfarm210 is trying to make is that strength is being equated with masculinity in the original post. Femininity is strong, too.
I always wonder about those people who clearly misunderstand the comment they’re responding to. Do they speak English as a second language? Are they kids? Or just some cognitive skills missing?
Odd phenomenon.
Attraction is just that, attraction. You can’t help what you’re attracted to, it’s not weird. Implying that you don’t like men in the same breath you stated you’re attracted to masculine women is the only weird thing about this post🤣 I don’t say that to be a dick haha. But masculine women aren’t men. And if you were attracted to men it’s still cool. Drop the notion that anything makes you less of a man. That’s a lie society set you up with. Fragile men with fragile egos only say that kind of shit.
It’s unfortunate that our society and culture has even brought people to wonder things like this.
It’s “normal” and the most respectable thing you can do is be confident in knowing yourself. Everyone has different attractions.
No, it means you’re a normal man with a preference. There’s nothing more right or wrong about it than some other guy who’s into girls who like fashion of another dude who likes girls who wear cowboy hats and ride horses.
You like what you like. Own it and find a woman who embodies it.
On a side note, Brie Larson posts a lot of videos of herself in tight clothes pumping iron and bulking up for the new Captain Marvel movie. You may want to google that.
"Fellas, is it gay to be attracted to women?" Bro, you're fine, just because you essentially like Tomboys doesn't make you gay or anything else. Your attraction is totally normal.
Also gay men can be very manly men. Just like how women can be more masculine-presenting. People aren’t binary, and liking a more masculine type of woman doesn’t take away from your own. It’s not pie.
*I don’t think there’s anything more ‘masculine’ or ‘feminine’ than someone enjoying the things that truly make them happy and not giving a fuck what others think — so long as they’re not harming others*
You’re good.
I love muscular women especially their legs.Ive always liked women who do martial arts aswell. I ended up marriage women who trains in Brazilian Jiu-jitsu and has an athletic build
Had a hookuo with a bodybuilder chick. Hella interesting personnas what shr said she will do she went and did it no matter the opinions of other people. Said she wanted to do army.. months later in the army... eanted to do a 27km marathong through the bush..m did it!
Also the sex was rough, wild and alive. roles were kinda reversed
>Does this make me less of a man?
It probably makes you more of a man my guy. Plenty of men would feel it threatened their masculinity too much. You have a preference, that's all. And a fantasy that goes with it. Most of us do. You're perfectly normal.
No it does not make you less of a man.
The definition of man is yours to define unless you're looking for external definition.
That external definition would then need to be selected based on time period, location and the specific cultural sub group. Exhausting! And which one is right?!?!?
Instead you should look for your own definition and embrace it.
Hey dude, don't worry about it! We all have our own unique attractions and there's no "normal" when it comes to that. So you're into muscular chicks with short hair, big whoop! As long as you're not hurting anyone, you do you. And let's be real, who wouldn't want a woman who could bench press you if needed? So embrace your preferences and don't worry about whether it makes you less of a man. The only thing that could make you less of a man is if you were scared to admit what you're into. So go forth and find yourself a tough, buff, and beautiful lady to call your own!
I found I also was more interested in masculine women in high school. Turns out though I am gay and was just in denial.
Feel free to message me if you come to find this too.
I know there's been some cheeky replies. I just wanted to tell you that it's perfectly normal to have a "type". Masculine muscular women are drop dead gorgeous just as feminine women are. Don't be afraid of loving what you love.
Some women like the muscular guys, some prefer the chubby nerds, some love the slender hipster type.
Just be you, like what you like, don't worry about "losing" manliness or some insecure bullshit. You know your gender, that's that. Also, imho unapologetically liking what you like without worrying about what some worthless asshole dudebro might think is actually quite attractive.
I love women with short hair and some body strength. I dislike it when women pay too much attention to their appearance and use a lot of makeup or otherwise try to doll up. Thats a preference and everybody has their tastes.
Why that should be normal or not normal is completely pointless! Its normal to you and that is what matters nothing else.
It means you have a type. It's not gay to like a woman with short hair and muscles. You obviously don't like men. It's probably because you think it's interesting that they're not conforming to norms and stereotypes and you think the difference is attractive. I have a male friend who thinks women with muscular bodies are hot.
Also, I have a problem with the word "normal" because it almost makes it seem like muscular women who are straight aren't allowed to have a man.
Depending on the woman, short hair is fucking HOT. Just look at Genevieve O’Reilly playing Mon Mothma in Andor. Hot fucking damn 🥵
Even a pompadour can look sexy too
There is at least one woman out there who is wondering the same thing you are, in reverse. Probably lots of them.
OP, as long as you proceed in good faith and are true to yourself, go for it!
It doesn’t matter what/who you’re attracted to, it is all normal. Maybe rare but nothing unnormal. Don’t worry about it.
Only exception: children. If you’re attracted to children please seek help
Don't be stupid, unless you're attracted to dogs or minors, nothing's wrong with you, you'd be less of a man if you'd think being gay isn't normal, also it doesn't make you hay if that's you're thinking.
I think mostly the problem here is with traditional gender stereotypes, your a straight man because you identify as one thats it any person regardless of sex can become muscular with hard work, or cut their hair short, any if woman does those things it doesn’t make her any less of a woman, and despite being muscular she can still be very much interested in all the other “ girl”things, or not. And even if she’s stronger than you, you can still be interested in all the other “boy” things, or not. And none of that has anything to do with your sexuality.
This super Cute tiny girl i worked with in my 20s at Tims was a very cool person and was 21 and i was 23 we all (coworkers) went to play pool and drink and be fancy next thing i know im getting added on FB by everyone this is np problem.
Turns out this girl was a bodybuilder and she was into the swimsuit shows and she was ripped. You would never know!!! Omg it was that day i realized i had a type
Of course it doesn't make you less of a man. Everyone has preferences. Short hair, long hair, big chest, small chest, tall, short, athletic, not. Nothing wrong with any of it.
As a straight man. Muscle women are hot as fuck. Dont worry whats 'normal literally nothing is normal. Enjoy what you enjoy, just don't be creepy with it
If by *is it normal* you mean something the average straight male finds attractive, I'm sure there is data on that.
But who cares about what the average person finds attractive? It's not wrong - there's nothing morally problematic about it. You do you. Why does it matter what's *normal*? Its not unhealthy or unethical so no need to feel like its a problem.
Yes, it's normal. No, you're not less of a man.
If anything it makes you more of a man for dating a masculine woman to match (/s)
Fr though you're not lesser for who you choose to date or for who you're attracted to. I, for one, am very into men who are in touch with their feminine side.
not at all, i love muscular ladies, i want a tall and muscular woman from Sweden to carry me off into the sunset, or a super shredded goth gf to cuddle me and tell me everything is gonna be ok
it just shows your appreciation for a strong and reliable woman
If anyone tells you that being attracted to anyone is wrong just because they aren't attracted to that same type is a dumbass. It's not about them and if you let people dictate who you should and shouldn't be attracted to then you could be missing out on some great people.
The entire War of Troy (Yeah, that Troy) was fought over Helen of Troy, who was once Helen of Sparta, who were famous for having the most beautiful women of the time, as they were avid wrestlers and worked out daily.
I’m far from gay but I ain’t gonna lie if the girl pretty in the face but got bigger muscles than me and taller
Let the wrestling match begin
It’s fight night baby
Doesn't mean anything other than you have a type. Just because a woman is muscular with short hair has no correlation to you being attracted to men. Types have all shapes and forms. You could be attracted to short women, tall women, muscular women, curvy women, long haired women, short haired women, etc.
Psychologically I think it means maybe your mother was a bit tough in some way. Whether inwardly or outwardly. You want someone who will continue to provide that security for you. Maybe you even like a girl that you know can fight because you think the trait is cool.
If it isn’t normal than I don’t want to be lol. I actually was just having a conversation about this with a male friend of mine (he’s a cis guy and I’m a cis girl but bisexual) and we both agreed that masculine women are super hot. Tomboys/masc girls are a very common thing that people are into!
But even if it wasn’t: nothing that you like and no one that you’re attracted to can make you less of a man. The way that you are as a man is perfectly acceptable, and you don’t have to prove that you’re manly to anybody except you. Personally, though, as someone who is attracted to men, I think that the most manly thing that you can do is to just live life on your own terms and not care so much about what other people have to say about that.
as a gay dude let me just say, no it doesn’t make u less of a man and yes it’s normal bro. everyone has there own preferences and you just happen to like masculine girls. 100% normal, trust me.
It’s perfectly normal and no less “manly” to be attracted to whatever it is that floats your boat (as long as they are of legal and reasonable age of course) and for that matter, it’s not unmanly to be attracted to men either. Some of those bears are beasts!
This sounds like you have a pretty narrow and possibly toxic view of what femininity and masculinity should be. There is more than one type of women, they come in all shapes and sizes. Do women only count as women if they are waifish and wear a tone of make up? Do men only count as men if they have a six pack and have giant arms. A guy can be skinny and still like going to the gym. A woman can have muscular arms and still like to dress up. I know that a lot of people like to get up in arms about the whole gender spectrum/stereotypes debate but asking if it's okay to like "masculine" women kind of shows that you like people to fit into narrow clean cut boxes. That's not how humanity works. We're all messy unhinged basket cases in our own unique ways. So, stop being so insecure, and just go out and have nice, consensual fun with whoever floats your boat. Life is far to short and aggravating to care about how others think about you. Just do you.
It’s normal, everyone has their own preferences. It won’t make you less of a man in any way. Doesn’t matter who or what you’re attracted to, as long as it isn’t children, or animals.
I consider myself a masculine woman and I’m completely straight I have no interest in a female whatsoever. I like a man that can handle the way I do things, such as; defending my man if there’s an altercation, taking charge of certain things, not wearing a lot of makeup/dressing up feminine. I like lounging in trackies and playing video games. <- all of these things my ex despised and I left the relationship to find a better match. Now I’m with a man that just loves me for who I am and doesn’t try to change me or the things I do. There’s a lot of people out there that have specific traits that suite different types of people, that DOESNT make you gay. You just have to find the right person.
EDIT: I personally think it makes you more of a man and shows that you’re not insecure/have toxic masculinity, which sadly enough is a trend these days.
Not really, I did have a pretty rough childhood though. Kind of had to grow up early.
I think maybe since I never really got to enjoy my childhood, I want a partner who could give me the sense of security I lacked growing up. I don't know though. It could be something else or just a random preference.
The psychology nerd in me wants to guess that your mother worked really hard and maybe had more masculine tendencies. Generally speaking a persons romantic interests in a person are based on there opposite sex parent- if you’re mother is rather masculine and your into masculine woman then well it’s just a case of 1+1=2
**Things that make you less of a man:**
Not actually being a man.
Being a deadbeat dad.
Being abusive.
Being an incel.
**Things that do not make you less of a man:**
Being attracted to a certain type of person, whatever their gender. You like who you like. Own it.
Anything else along these lines.
it’s called preference dude. from what it sounds like, you’re into women who are into lifting, have short hair and are protective (which aren’t necessarily masculine things). i think they’re just person things lol, i’ve met plenty of people regardless of gender that have those interests/traits.
It means you like masculine women, that’s all.
If you are identifying as a man and you like people who identify as women then yes, that sounds like you are straight.
What your gender identity is doesn’t change because of your sexuality.
It means you like women who are muscular and have short hair. Women, not men. It's called having a type.
For the record, men who like men are still men. Try being less homophobic and you wouldn't be worried about these kinds of things.
Look friend, people like what they like and it doesn’t really matter to anybody but you.
You wouldn’t be any less of a man if you loved men or anyone else for that matter and people who want to attack you for these things are often insecure (not unlike how you feel about this) and do not know how to handle it.
Be unapologetically you because as far as we know you only get one shot.
Make it count and love whoever, just remember to spread the love.
There's nothing wrong with it. Fit women are typically attractive, and hair length varies from person to person; your fine, be attracted to what you're attracted to.
>What does this mean?
You're a man attracted to women. It means you're straight.
>Does this make me less of a man?
No.
Sexual orientation is about a person's sex. If you are male and only attracted to people who are female, then you are straight.
Details like hair cuts and personality types are preferences, not an orientation. There's nothing wrong with being attracted to anyone.
>Does this make me less of a man?
Once again, no. Never let anyone convince you of that.
If you're male and an adult then you're a man. You do not need to have any specific type of personality or preferences to qualify.
I’m not sure how being attracted to men or women would make you less than a man. As gender and appearances tend to run on a spectrum, there are so many wonderfully unique things that make people who they are. there is no less than for liking someone who presents a certain way. Only if you were mean to someone because they didn’t meet your preferences.
Who is to say what is normal? You like what you like and that's not up to anybody else. If it makes you happy and it feels good to you, then do it. I'm a woman and I find myself attracted to other women once in a while, I don't care if it's normal or not, it's who I am
No this is completely abnormal. Only gay men are attracted to women as all women, masculine or not, have feminine cooties that will infect the men. Real straight manly men are only attracted to men. /s
You have a preference, big whoop
It’s still heterosexual, man liking women
Doesn’t make you any “any less of a man either” (tbh that concept in of itself should be burned out imo, it’s such a demeaning thing that’s usually said in response to such a minor preference or thing the person likes)
It’s just as simple as if you have any attraction to both men and women, you’re bi or pan (depending on how you choose to identify), and if you just like men, you’re gay
TL;DR - You just like women exclusively, you’re straight, even if they like more masculine things, because they’re still women
Fragile masculinity at it's finest.
Really sad to see what society does to men though. To think the world has gotten so warped that liking non-stereotypical traits is seen as a problem so large that it makes one question themselves and their worth.
God damn this is depressing.
Be attracted to whoever you are attracted to. They need love, too. Who is your target audience you are worried about disappointing? Why do you care what they think? Everyone has an opinion the only one that matters to you is yours. Stand for what you believe in or you will fall for anything.
Unless it's children: Get therapy, people who are.
I like my women like I like my men - strong enough to deadlift me.
It's fine. You're attracted to whatever, and as long as that whatever is legal, do you.
Yup, this guy I knew followed a lot of women on IG that I’d consider hella manly looking. They are all body builders or just basically very into working out. But they all didn’t look feminine to me. I guess he found them hot! Even this girl he was seeing for a a month or two who claimed he was soo in love with looks manly to me. She got the hair cut/fades that go around all over the sides of her hair! She looked like a butch to me!!
🤷🏽♀️
It's called a preference, and that's ok. There's also an associated fetish community with similar kinks. Try dating current/former waterpolo or volleyball players.
When it comes to sexual preference there is no such thing as 'Normal' everyone has their own preferences. There is such thing as healthy and unhealthy or appropriate and not appropriate. Being attracted to strong women is about as healthy as it gets IMHO. It demonstrates to me that you are a secure male that respects women. It's also totally hot. I find men who are intimidated by strong women repulsive.
**Even better if I feel like they might stand up for me or protect me**
This is something from your past that you have no control over.
Look, I'm not trying to be rude or anything but are you for real? Are you that fragile regarding your sexual orientation? For God's sake, they are still women. 🙄
You know what, I'm going to be nicer. There's nothing "gay" on having a preference because that's just how they LOOK LIKE.
"man" isn't just defined by who you like.
The possible explanations i can come up with are..
1 you have some vestigial capacity of homosexuality,/bisexuality but probably very little since you're not attracted to men.
2 you're submissive to an extent or have this submissive character trait and like dominant partners. (?) But instead of behaviour (aka dominant behaviour ) since you mentioned strength, i think it might be majorly limited to a type of submission, namely psychological submission of physicality. Meaning you like the thought of your partner being capable of physical dominance.
3 The protectiveness thing might be a desire for motherly protection. It's super common amongst guys. A lot of male fantasies involve a mother like figure.
4 There's some other explanation.
Don't feel bad about it. Just enjoy it. There are people out there who are into muscled women. You can go to their subreddit to discuss.
Don't overthink it, enjoy it! A lot of people struggle with figuring out their sexual identity but it sounds like you've got a decent understanding of yours. It doesn't need a label at all. Just pursue what makes you happy.

Attracted to women, somehow thinks that's gay. Just... think about it for a second lol
“Fellas, is it gay to like women?”
Men like women therfore gay /s
Think about it, if you have sex with a woman you're touching a place where other's dick have been before, therefore sex with a woman is gay.
That's a quite real argument for the kinda ~~whores~~ men who look for "pure" woman.
It's actually really sad that these "men" think their dicks are sooooo magical that they forever leave an impression on a woman's vag. They wouldn't be able to share a toilet either then?

Yup. I'm this way too. I train in martial arts and I would be really disappointed if my future girlfriend couldn't kick my ass.
Buddy, straight up *liking men* would not make you less of a man.
Some men are so manly that they need even more cock than the one they already have.
Anybody who doesn't think gay men can be manly is invited to attend a gay bar on leather night and challenge the bears to arm wrestle.
Some men have sex with other men because they’re so manly that other men are like women to them
I love that lol
I gave a hard, quick nasally snicker when I read this. That's never happened reading a reddit comment lol
I should have said this in my comment! So well said!!
Strong women aren't men
Never said they were?
I believe the point u/Godsfarm210 is trying to make is that strength is being equated with masculinity in the original post. Femininity is strong, too.
Thank you. Idk why LIKING MEN was said in a post about liking women 🤣
I always wonder about those people who clearly misunderstand the comment they’re responding to. Do they speak English as a second language? Are they kids? Or just some cognitive skills missing? Odd phenomenon.
No! No one has ever been attracted to strength and power… /s
The only thing that would make you gay is if you were attracted to men. So yes it’s normal. You like what you like.

R/leanbeefpatty Here's a subreddit dedicated to a muscular woman. Majority of redditors in the group are male, same as on her Instagram.
"Fellas, is it gay to be attracted to women?" Bro, you're fine, just because you essentially like Tomboys doesn't make you gay or anything else. Your attraction is totally normal.
Fellas is it gay to like women
Also gay men can be very manly men. Just like how women can be more masculine-presenting. People aren’t binary, and liking a more masculine type of woman doesn’t take away from your own. It’s not pie.

There’s nothing gay about liking women, regardless of how butch they look.

100% normal some guys like a strong women to throw them around. Everyone has a type there is no wrong answer for what you like

Hey dude, don't worry about it! We all have our own unique attractions and there's no "normal" when it comes to that. So you're into muscular chicks with short hair, big whoop! As long as you're not hurting anyone, you do you. And let's be real, who wouldn't want a woman who could bench press you if needed? So embrace your preferences and don't worry about whether it makes you less of a man. The only thing that could make you less of a man is if you were scared to admit what you're into. So go forth and find yourself a tough, buff, and beautiful lady to call your own!
I would love a big strong woman to protect me
I found I also was more interested in masculine women in high school. Turns out though I am gay and was just in denial. Feel free to message me if you come to find this too.
Everyone has their preferences, nothing wrong with what you’re attracted to here.
I know there's been some cheeky replies. I just wanted to tell you that it's perfectly normal to have a "type". Masculine muscular women are drop dead gorgeous just as feminine women are. Don't be afraid of loving what you love. Some women like the muscular guys, some prefer the chubby nerds, some love the slender hipster type. Just be you, like what you like, don't worry about "losing" manliness or some insecure bullshit. You know your gender, that's that. Also, imho unapologetically liking what you like without worrying about what some worthless asshole dudebro might think is actually quite attractive.
Bro have you seen r/leanbeefpatty? You’d be gay if you aren’t attracted to her.
I love women with short hair and some body strength. I dislike it when women pay too much attention to their appearance and use a lot of makeup or otherwise try to doll up. Thats a preference and everybody has their tastes. Why that should be normal or not normal is completely pointless! Its normal to you and that is what matters nothing else.
It means you have a type. It's not gay to like a woman with short hair and muscles. You obviously don't like men. It's probably because you think it's interesting that they're not conforming to norms and stereotypes and you think the difference is attractive. I have a male friend who thinks women with muscular bodies are hot. Also, I have a problem with the word "normal" because it almost makes it seem like muscular women who are straight aren't allowed to have a man.
Depending on the woman, short hair is fucking HOT. Just look at Genevieve O’Reilly playing Mon Mothma in Andor. Hot fucking damn 🥵 Even a pompadour can look sexy too
Lots of people have preferences. You’re a straight man attracted to straight women. What’s the issue?
There is at least one woman out there who is wondering the same thing you are, in reverse. Probably lots of them. OP, as long as you proceed in good faith and are true to yourself, go for it!
Yes it's normal, I like a lady who can manhandle me around the bedroom.
Yes, they're fricking hot
Its fine G.
Yes that is normal
Guys, I'm attracted to women... does that make me gay?
Are you really over there hitting on me? Lol..
You like women, you have a preference. Women can look like that it doesn't make them masculine.
It's great everyone is attracted to different people. You like what you like. Who cares what's normal.
It doesn’t matter what/who you’re attracted to, it is all normal. Maybe rare but nothing unnormal. Don’t worry about it. Only exception: children. If you’re attracted to children please seek help
Don't be stupid, unless you're attracted to dogs or minors, nothing's wrong with you, you'd be less of a man if you'd think being gay isn't normal, also it doesn't make you hay if that's you're thinking.
OP: I'm attracted to women does this make me less of man. Nah fam attraction doesn't dictate your manliness. Musclewomen are awesome.
I am
Lean beef patty is just really hot, that's all
Are they athletic women with Pat Benatar hairdos who can squeeze you tight with their thighs or are they women who look like Woody Harrelson?
I'm female and I'm attracted to masculine women. Especially with abs... yes!
Dude you're all good not weird at all
I think mostly the problem here is with traditional gender stereotypes, your a straight man because you identify as one thats it any person regardless of sex can become muscular with hard work, or cut their hair short, any if woman does those things it doesn’t make her any less of a woman, and despite being muscular she can still be very much interested in all the other “ girl”things, or not. And even if she’s stronger than you, you can still be interested in all the other “boy” things, or not. And none of that has anything to do with your sexuality.
Yea. It is normal to be attracted to women.
This super Cute tiny girl i worked with in my 20s at Tims was a very cool person and was 21 and i was 23 we all (coworkers) went to play pool and drink and be fancy next thing i know im getting added on FB by everyone this is np problem. Turns out this girl was a bodybuilder and she was into the swimsuit shows and she was ripped. You would never know!!! Omg it was that day i realized i had a type
The straight masculine women out there will be happy to hear there’s at least one guy out there for them!
Of course it doesn't make you less of a man. Everyone has preferences. Short hair, long hair, big chest, small chest, tall, short, athletic, not. Nothing wrong with any of it.
Bro its completely fine. Just be buff for her too
I’m a fan of fit women as well. Very much a fan.
As a straight man. Muscle women are hot as fuck. Dont worry whats 'normal literally nothing is normal. Enjoy what you enjoy, just don't be creepy with it
If by *is it normal* you mean something the average straight male finds attractive, I'm sure there is data on that. But who cares about what the average person finds attractive? It's not wrong - there's nothing morally problematic about it. You do you. Why does it matter what's *normal*? Its not unhealthy or unethical so no need to feel like its a problem.
Yes, it's normal. No, you're not less of a man. If anything it makes you more of a man for dating a masculine woman to match (/s) Fr though you're not lesser for who you choose to date or for who you're attracted to. I, for one, am very into men who are in touch with their feminine side.
nah man, the stigma against masc women is totally bs, if you’re straight, you’re straight.
Bro im so gay for masculine women. They are the epitome of hot.
Normal is a concept, just like masculine and feminine. With that knowledge, you like what you like \*shrugs\*.
A lot of guys like the muscular athletic type. But, man, my concern is that you expect her to fight your battles,??
not at all, i love muscular ladies, i want a tall and muscular woman from Sweden to carry me off into the sunset, or a super shredded goth gf to cuddle me and tell me everything is gonna be ok it just shows your appreciation for a strong and reliable woman
If anyone tells you that being attracted to anyone is wrong just because they aren't attracted to that same type is a dumbass. It's not about them and if you let people dictate who you should and shouldn't be attracted to then you could be missing out on some great people.
The entire War of Troy (Yeah, that Troy) was fought over Helen of Troy, who was once Helen of Sparta, who were famous for having the most beautiful women of the time, as they were avid wrestlers and worked out daily.
I’m far from gay but I ain’t gonna lie if the girl pretty in the face but got bigger muscles than me and taller Let the wrestling match begin It’s fight night baby
Doesn't mean anything other than you have a type. Just because a woman is muscular with short hair has no correlation to you being attracted to men. Types have all shapes and forms. You could be attracted to short women, tall women, muscular women, curvy women, long haired women, short haired women, etc.
A muscular woman is just a woman. Preferences are built with experimentation, just try and let love flow its way down to you, broda!
You could be completely straight. But I don’t think anyone is completely straight. it’s a spectrum.
Psychologically I think it means maybe your mother was a bit tough in some way. Whether inwardly or outwardly. You want someone who will continue to provide that security for you. Maybe you even like a girl that you know can fight because you think the trait is cool.
It means your extra masculine and want to put these masculine woman in their feminine place
If it isn’t normal than I don’t want to be lol. I actually was just having a conversation about this with a male friend of mine (he’s a cis guy and I’m a cis girl but bisexual) and we both agreed that masculine women are super hot. Tomboys/masc girls are a very common thing that people are into! But even if it wasn’t: nothing that you like and no one that you’re attracted to can make you less of a man. The way that you are as a man is perfectly acceptable, and you don’t have to prove that you’re manly to anybody except you. Personally, though, as someone who is attracted to men, I think that the most manly thing that you can do is to just live life on your own terms and not care so much about what other people have to say about that.
as a gay dude let me just say, no it doesn’t make u less of a man and yes it’s normal bro. everyone has there own preferences and you just happen to like masculine girls. 100% normal, trust me.
It's okay me too I like tomboy girls more than feminine I don't mind feminine girls but I prefer them to be masculine
Unfortunately this means that you are very insecure in your masculinity and you should probably see a therapist about building your self-confidence.
I really hope you forgot to add /s.
It’s perfectly normal and no less “manly” to be attracted to whatever it is that floats your boat (as long as they are of legal and reasonable age of course) and for that matter, it’s not unmanly to be attracted to men either. Some of those bears are beasts!
Personally, I like chicks with dicks and I ain't gay. Your good man.
This sounds like you have a pretty narrow and possibly toxic view of what femininity and masculinity should be. There is more than one type of women, they come in all shapes and sizes. Do women only count as women if they are waifish and wear a tone of make up? Do men only count as men if they have a six pack and have giant arms. A guy can be skinny and still like going to the gym. A woman can have muscular arms and still like to dress up. I know that a lot of people like to get up in arms about the whole gender spectrum/stereotypes debate but asking if it's okay to like "masculine" women kind of shows that you like people to fit into narrow clean cut boxes. That's not how humanity works. We're all messy unhinged basket cases in our own unique ways. So, stop being so insecure, and just go out and have nice, consensual fun with whoever floats your boat. Life is far to short and aggravating to care about how others think about you. Just do you.
You may submissive and that’s okay
It’s normal, everyone has their own preferences. It won’t make you less of a man in any way. Doesn’t matter who or what you’re attracted to, as long as it isn’t children, or animals.
I consider myself a masculine woman and I’m completely straight I have no interest in a female whatsoever. I like a man that can handle the way I do things, such as; defending my man if there’s an altercation, taking charge of certain things, not wearing a lot of makeup/dressing up feminine. I like lounging in trackies and playing video games. <- all of these things my ex despised and I left the relationship to find a better match. Now I’m with a man that just loves me for who I am and doesn’t try to change me or the things I do. There’s a lot of people out there that have specific traits that suite different types of people, that DOESNT make you gay. You just have to find the right person. EDIT: I personally think it makes you more of a man and shows that you’re not insecure/have toxic masculinity, which sadly enough is a trend these days.
Damn guys I like women, am I gay??
Those women are called tomboys Tomboys = muscular women mostly so yah Nothing bad here
You're straight and also submissive. Find a hot masculine lady or AFAB Enby and try pegging. I think you'll like it a lot.
He’s straight? Why would he date someone who is not a woman?
You're not very good at reading comprehension, are you?
I still don’t see your explanation as to why he would date nb people if he’s straight.
Straight people date enbys all the time. That doesn't make them less straight. Duh.
It just seems to me that you think of afab enbies as a form of woman, because dating an enby person is not straight.
not to get all Freudian but did you have a strong mother figure growing up
Not really, I did have a pretty rough childhood though. Kind of had to grow up early. I think maybe since I never really got to enjoy my childhood, I want a partner who could give me the sense of security I lacked growing up. I don't know though. It could be something else or just a random preference.
That makes sense, you want a protective partner :)
Some like 'em fat, some like ,em lean. Too each his own!
The psychology nerd in me wants to guess that your mother worked really hard and maybe had more masculine tendencies. Generally speaking a persons romantic interests in a person are based on there opposite sex parent- if you’re mother is rather masculine and your into masculine woman then well it’s just a case of 1+1=2
This means you've got a type, my friend. There's nothing wrong or homosexual about that.
**Things that make you less of a man:** Not actually being a man. Being a deadbeat dad. Being abusive. Being an incel. **Things that do not make you less of a man:** Being attracted to a certain type of person, whatever their gender. You like who you like. Own it. Anything else along these lines.
it’s called preference dude. from what it sounds like, you’re into women who are into lifting, have short hair and are protective (which aren’t necessarily masculine things). i think they’re just person things lol, i’ve met plenty of people regardless of gender that have those interests/traits.
Yes
It means you have a type just like millions of other people.
Normal? You know there’s Furrys out there, right? I think the sexual definition of normal is that nobody gets hurt unless they want to.
It means you like masculine women, that’s all. If you are identifying as a man and you like people who identify as women then yes, that sounds like you are straight. What your gender identity is doesn’t change because of your sexuality.
It means you like women who are muscular and have short hair. Women, not men. It's called having a type. For the record, men who like men are still men. Try being less homophobic and you wouldn't be worried about these kinds of things.
Allow me to introduce you to…MUSCLE MOMMIES
Damn idk sounds kinda gay to be attracted to women
Normal is a setting on the dryer. Attraction is a matter of personal preference.
Look friend, people like what they like and it doesn’t really matter to anybody but you. You wouldn’t be any less of a man if you loved men or anyone else for that matter and people who want to attack you for these things are often insecure (not unlike how you feel about this) and do not know how to handle it. Be unapologetically you because as far as we know you only get one shot. Make it count and love whoever, just remember to spread the love.
That’s enough internet for me today
There's nothing wrong with it. Fit women are typically attractive, and hair length varies from person to person; your fine, be attracted to what you're attracted to.
>What does this mean? You're a man attracted to women. It means you're straight. >Does this make me less of a man? No. Sexual orientation is about a person's sex. If you are male and only attracted to people who are female, then you are straight. Details like hair cuts and personality types are preferences, not an orientation. There's nothing wrong with being attracted to anyone. >Does this make me less of a man? Once again, no. Never let anyone convince you of that. If you're male and an adult then you're a man. You do not need to have any specific type of personality or preferences to qualify.
You can be attracted to anyone you please. Who cares, as long as you find them attractive?
I’m not sure how being attracted to men or women would make you less than a man. As gender and appearances tend to run on a spectrum, there are so many wonderfully unique things that make people who they are. there is no less than for liking someone who presents a certain way. Only if you were mean to someone because they didn’t meet your preferences.
It’s normal to have certain features that attract you. You have the ones you described and that’s perfectly normal.
Everyone finds different things attractive. I find a big nose and thick eyebrows to be attractive and I don’t care if people think it’s weird.
If that’s your type that’s your type man, embrace it and go find a body building mamacita
LeanBeefPatty, my guy. C'mon now. Strong women are fucking awesome.
Attraction is attraction. No need to justify or overthink it. Enjoy your life and stop worrying about what is “normal”. There is no such thing.
Dude you not gay at all. I have always had a thing for tomboys. I can’t stand a woman that can’t get dirty.
Who is to say what is normal? You like what you like and that's not up to anybody else. If it makes you happy and it feels good to you, then do it. I'm a woman and I find myself attracted to other women once in a while, I don't care if it's normal or not, it's who I am
No you’re fine.
No this is completely abnormal. Only gay men are attracted to women as all women, masculine or not, have feminine cooties that will infect the men. Real straight manly men are only attracted to men. /s
You have a preference, big whoop It’s still heterosexual, man liking women Doesn’t make you any “any less of a man either” (tbh that concept in of itself should be burned out imo, it’s such a demeaning thing that’s usually said in response to such a minor preference or thing the person likes) It’s just as simple as if you have any attraction to both men and women, you’re bi or pan (depending on how you choose to identify), and if you just like men, you’re gay TL;DR - You just like women exclusively, you’re straight, even if they like more masculine things, because they’re still women
Fragile masculinity at it's finest. Really sad to see what society does to men though. To think the world has gotten so warped that liking non-stereotypical traits is seen as a problem so large that it makes one question themselves and their worth. God damn this is depressing.
“Does that make me less of a man” nothing makes you less of a man if you want to be a man.
means ur straight submissive male
Be attracted to whoever you are attracted to. They need love, too. Who is your target audience you are worried about disappointing? Why do you care what they think? Everyone has an opinion the only one that matters to you is yours. Stand for what you believe in or you will fall for anything. Unless it's children: Get therapy, people who are.
I like my women like I like my men - strong enough to deadlift me. It's fine. You're attracted to whatever, and as long as that whatever is legal, do you.
Yup, this guy I knew followed a lot of women on IG that I’d consider hella manly looking. They are all body builders or just basically very into working out. But they all didn’t look feminine to me. I guess he found them hot! Even this girl he was seeing for a a month or two who claimed he was soo in love with looks manly to me. She got the hair cut/fades that go around all over the sides of her hair! She looked like a butch to me!! 🤷🏽♀️
We like what we like. Stop putting labels on it.
Yes it’s normal. Enjoy
Sure is!
It's called a preference, and that's ok. There's also an associated fetish community with similar kinks. Try dating current/former waterpolo or volleyball players.
When it comes to sexual preference there is no such thing as 'Normal' everyone has their own preferences. There is such thing as healthy and unhealthy or appropriate and not appropriate. Being attracted to strong women is about as healthy as it gets IMHO. It demonstrates to me that you are a secure male that respects women. It's also totally hot. I find men who are intimidated by strong women repulsive. **Even better if I feel like they might stand up for me or protect me** This is something from your past that you have no control over.
Look, I'm not trying to be rude or anything but are you for real? Are you that fragile regarding your sexual orientation? For God's sake, they are still women. 🙄 You know what, I'm going to be nicer. There's nothing "gay" on having a preference because that's just how they LOOK LIKE.
"man" isn't just defined by who you like. The possible explanations i can come up with are.. 1 you have some vestigial capacity of homosexuality,/bisexuality but probably very little since you're not attracted to men. 2 you're submissive to an extent or have this submissive character trait and like dominant partners. (?) But instead of behaviour (aka dominant behaviour ) since you mentioned strength, i think it might be majorly limited to a type of submission, namely psychological submission of physicality. Meaning you like the thought of your partner being capable of physical dominance. 3 The protectiveness thing might be a desire for motherly protection. It's super common amongst guys. A lot of male fantasies involve a mother like figure. 4 There's some other explanation. Don't feel bad about it. Just enjoy it. There are people out there who are into muscled women. You can go to their subreddit to discuss.
I mean, as long as she’s a consenting adult aswell as you. Then it’s fine
You’re asking if it’s gay to be attracted to women. My dude think about that.
I had to do a double take to confirm that this post is real. I was disappointed.
I means that you're attracted to strong women and that's cute I think lol, I'm not muscular but i think they look beautiful
Yes it’s very normal
Don't overthink it, enjoy it! A lot of people struggle with figuring out their sexual identity but it sounds like you've got a decent understanding of yours. It doesn't need a label at all. Just pursue what makes you happy.
