DISCLAIMER: The information in this video are generalities and should not be taken as a fixed rule. Although many of the studies show certain results, there is no way to test and observe ancient humans. So, the conclusions in a number of papers are theories as to why humans may behave the way they do from an evolutionary perspective. This is done by observing other animals and modern day humans. As a result, evolutionary psychology is often reductionist and can fail to take into account social factors. My point is don’t go using evolutionary psychology as an excuse to cheat or something LOL. Additionally, although "Male Gaze"/"Female Gaze" are terms coined by Laura Mulvey, we will be discussing both terms from the perspective of the Tik Tok trend.
The beauty and personal care industry for men and women is a multibillion dollar business. While some of that is spent for reasons of self satisfaction, a large amount is spent to attract a mate. There’s just one problem. Unless you date the same sex, sometimes what you think is attractive about yourself isn’t what the opposite sex is attracted to. This phenomena is commonly known as the male vs female gaze. The male gaze describes what men typically view as attractive in men and women. The female gaze describes what women typically view as attractive in men and women. This has sparked discussion all over the internet about what causes these differences in opinion. Today we will be examining the possible cause of this difference by analyzing the male and female gaze from an evolutionary perspective.

I'm seeing new comments about the audio being not synced up. The reason for that is I had to trim a few seconds off of the video, using UKposts's trimmer because someone copyright claimed it. Monetization is back on, but I guess trimming the video has affected audio syncing? The video has been processing for a day. I'm hoping that after it's fully processed, it'll be back to normal.

I honestly think the reason the girls (possibly women) talked so much about TC’s acting skills and personality is because they didn’t want to sound shallow. I know plenty of women who feel the need to highlight the non-physical attributes of a romantic interest specifically for that reason.
@filipradojcic461
@filipradojcic461 9 місяців тому
I'm thinking the same thing, TC is attractive in his own way. Maybe he is not muscular, big or appears as a dominant, leading male but his whole face is still attractive in unique way, hence why he is an actor in first place. Many guys can try to mimick his hairstyle but they still wouldn't be perceived as attractive as they want to be. Regardless, this video did good thing portraying how attractiveness is measured by media and how people form their perception of attraction based on it.

One thing that I see other comments mentioning is that it's easy to say what you think you find attractive, but what you actually find attractive is something more real and hard to grasp. A thing that I find has helped a lot in understanding why women like the pretty boy types is seeing them in motion, hearing them speak, because a lot of the time there is both a tenderness and an intensity of presence. Similarly, what I find myself desiring in a partner is not the sort of shallow charicature we often get from sexy lady characters, which even in full cinematic context is more like the static image of those gentlemen actors the ladies like. I find myself wanting that intensity of presence and gentleness. In a sense, what people want is to be seen and heard, not merely as leaders or authorities, but as equals, and to see and hear their partners in turn. Or perhaps this is senseless.

The day I learned that one of the most common body parts women find attractive is the hands, is the day I began learning to accept myself and stop trying to conform to what the media says I should look like. It sounds silly to say in retrospect, years later, but learning to love your body and stop chasing this fantasy ideal that the media says you should seek after, allows you to be in control of the goal posts for yourself, instead of chasing the impossible and ever-changing goal posts of someone who profits off of your misery.

Many women have said that what parts they find most attractive on men vary a lot, but for most men, breasts, butts and curvy hips on women are what causes the most sexual response for us. It discourages me to think that the parts on the same areas on men aren’t as commonly thought most attractive to women because of how attractive those areas on women are to most men. It's always made me angry that there's been so much more interest in seeing the female body displayed in a sexually enticing way than male even by many women. That just leaves more people of one genders sexual desires less satisfied more often. That and many womens curves being largely fat makes it difficult for me to enjoy female beauty as much as I want and has caused me depression. Fat isn't a material that gives a stable body shape, but very loose material stored in it and meant to be absorbed. It isn't a body part. It upsets me to think there isn't as much of a butt on men compared to women and often much less in the chest area of men compared to breasts for women to enjoy seeing. I have depression because of how much people enforce this idea that it's more dependant on the hormones that make men the way we are than anything women have as much of. I don't care to ever have a girlfriend or be married anymore because of them. How do they not think it very depressing that there's been more sexual interest expressed for one gender compared to the other!? They have no problem with such a passionate desire not being mutual most of the time!? Are they crazy!?

Ryan Reynolds is actually someone who fits both the Male and Female Gaze. He’s masculine and well toned, has a lot of interests in male dominate fields. But is also carrying, charming and has a sensitive side to him catering to female audiences. I believe that’s something that many top actors hold and that’s why they on top.

I have mixed feelings. I think that it has lots to do with expectactions. If the most attractive person in a room doesn't like me because i'm not the most attractive person in the room , maybe means that i have false and unreal expectations. And also there's a huge trend to "bear" and "chubby" guys in the gay community. We have a tendence to run away from what women find attractive or what straight man thinks women find attractive. Before , gays guys were the clean, shaved guy with too much perfum ( lavender!) But now that straight guys have adopt this behavior, gays wants hairs, daddy bodies and not parfum.

The videos on evolutionary biology are especially notable because they take a look at the whole "tournament species/pair-bonding species" thing that is often touted for this topic and show how it isn't that simple for humans.

Then why was there a difference between “going to my apartment” and “have sex with me”, which could happen at any location the girl chooses? Danger levels would be at the very least similar but possibly lower in the sex question bc they could just do a quickie in a public bathroom or something. I can see how women not feeling safe alone with a man can be a confounding variable but the fact that they included both implied and explicit sexual propositions controls for that aspect and reveals there’s more to it than that. Also, on the flip side, they found differences between those conditions when men were asked by women.

@adc1222 2 роки тому
There's actually a decent amount of research looking into this. While not directly addressing if attractive people cheat more, The Investment Model scale is one of the more commonly used measures for examining whether people will continue in a relationship. The three main factors are satisfaction level, quality of alternatives, and investment size. So if you're very attractive, and you know that you're hot, you probably have a higher quality of alternatives to your current partner. Therefore you may be more likely to break up with them when compared to someone that is less attractive, or at least believes themselves to be less attractive, and so thinks they have fewer other options out there.

Edit: I’ve been getting a lot of hate for saying this , not sure why so since it’s a personal preference. 😀?

As someone who is Asexual, I always found these male vs. female gaze things very interesting because, while I did want a relationship and love, I mostly wanted a partner who would support me yet also influence me to grow and become a better person and essentially make my life great whilst having wonderful personality traits. Body and physique meant nothing to me because I didn't care for wanting children. It still baffles me that people try to 100% say every single member of a species is the same because of biology because a lot of people I know have never looked at dating, relationships, love, sex, having kids, etc. in this way. This video was interesting and pointed out things I have noticed before in society, but I gotta wonder if they'll ever consider other factors in people's decision making for a partner besides "biology and wanting the best mate based on appearance" because this just makes every single human look horrible when not everyone is.

I just told them they weren't my type-- you can reject someone gracefully without hurting their feelings.

It is also key to note that if 54% fit on one side of a dichotomy, the other 46% sits on the other, making generalizations, well, broadly generalized. Each person has their own needs, wants and preferences. I had a roommate that would go to the gym every day and when he came back, he would often ask me, "What do you think? Will girls like me now?" I had to remind him that different people have different preferences, and he would only attract girls that have physical health as a high priority, and that ultimately, since he planned on being monogamous, that he just needs to be attractive to one key person.

This is sensationalism. 77% of murder victims are men. Women simply scare easier and demand more security than men. Because a male life is more expendable. If you have three men and three women, you can kill two men and still get three families. Kill two women and you only get one family. Women have a psycho-sexual attraction to dangerous men and have a habit of spreading it onto all men with studies created to make sensationalist headlines.

I think there’s also the aspect that for a lot of women, enjoyable sex takes more work and partner engagement than it does for a lot of men. Like a dude can be really hot, but if he approaches me for sex and I know absolutely zero about him, even if I negate the safety aspect and the social stigmatization, I could go to have sex with him and end up totally unsatisfied. I know this is possible for men, too, but not to the same degree. Like I’m not going to risk it for mediocre or terrible sex, even if the dude is hot.

Honestly, the way men think what women find attractive vs what women actually find attractive is so vastly different. It was always interesting to see whenever I told my male friends what I found attractive, or what other female friends of our age found attractive was "shocking" or "weird" to them. Men who groom themselves, and are open and sensitive. Men generally tend to think that being like one of those Alpha Male videos that are on UKposts is what is attractive to women, but it isn't, really. In all my years of watching western media, the first time I found a male character attractive was Newt Scamander of Fantastic Beasts, he was vulnerable, he was sensitive (I recommend watching the video the fantastic masculinity of Newt Scamander on UKposts) . Which is why I think Timothee, Tom Holland, or in general South Korean (I should probably clarify I am talking about Kpop celebs where the male celebs do present themselves in a more "prettier" way, not that all S.Korean men are feminine or effeminate) men being popular among women had a negative reception among men. It went against what they thought was attractive to women all this time. This was an interesting watch. Edit: Some people seem to be taking my comment out of context, I never said women don't find or can't find buff or masculine men attractive, of course they can. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, and to each to their own. I said 'Alpha' males on youtube who treat women lesser than men are definitely not something women find attractive. That's not the type of dominative behavior women find attractive, which men tend to think women do. The reason I mentioned feminine men was, it has always been widely believed that feminine men are unattractive to women. Which is simply not true, femininity is attractive to women. Not that buff or masculine men aren't attractive. Edit 2: If you are having a bad day, don't open the reply section. I won't be replying anymore because it's full of people twisting my words even after a long and elaborate edit, lol.

As a European male I feel like this is such a American take. Everyone in the US is soo afraid of strangers. People carry weapons, they avoid going outside at night. Kids aren’t allowed to be in public on their own. People are terrified of hitchhiking and terrorism. If you look at the statistics, (even tho the US is like the most violent country ever) this makes no sense at all. None of these things that Americans are so afraid of are actually realistically dangerous at all. Crime rates have gone way down since your parents generation, yet they didn’t have any of these fears growing up. It’s just a cultural thing in the US to be so terrified all the time.

@TheFlypaste
@TheFlypaste 2 роки тому
Commenting before watching the video. But: There is an actual reason for this. From a strategic perspective, the goal of being strong is so that you can enforce your claim over a woman by physically separating her from other men. So the purpose of having large muscles isn't to impress the woman, it's to intimidate competitors. In this fashion it is true that being highly muscular helps a man reproduce, and it's why men instinctively focus on muscular men: he's a direct competitor with the intention to get in your way. The problem is that we don't live in a tribal world anymore and a man can't just beat the shit out of any weaker guys that are interested in the woman he wants. So to reconcile this they convince themselves that "I have the instinctual understanding that being strong helps me reproduce, therefore it must be the case that women are attracted to me when I'm strong." Even though that's not true and not actually how it works. Additionally an argument could be made that huge muscles are actively unattractive to women because it implies at an instinctual level that the man intends to remove her freedom of reproductive choice.

iq has been correlated with birth order (later being better) on basis of women's hips getting wider post giving birth allowing for larger children - I don't see why this would not apply to women with wider hips initially. There is also going to be lower chance of death during childbirth (from a subconscious perspective based on childbirth historically). Breast size can be correlated with milk production which again can be correlated with lower infant mortality and higher infant growth rates (somewhat historical). Nice looking hair can be correlated with health directly, in terms of protein production, access to protein (historically in short supply) and nutrient levels. Fat depositions (ass) can be correlated with ability to continue to term/breastfeed in adverse conditions, eg a famine or food shortage (historically). BMI can be correlated with increased health directly and in most cases self control. Fashion/Style and general hygiene can be correlated with ability to recognise social norms/trends and self implement them. A lot of these are antiquated but as they are subconscious they still survive. If predispositions like this exist, it is because they are evolutionarily advantageous or were at one time - tbh its pretty egotistical to think you know better than trait preferences developed through evolution over millions of years (that they are/were baseless).

i've seen a lot of ppl (who are now v dedicated to their wives) cheat. i think it stems not necessarily from a lack of love, but from a general discontent with their lives. i think it's not necessarily unfair for ppl to feel jealous. after all, there's nothing you can do to prevent your partner from cheating, and even if they do, it's not really their Fault per se. they often don't even realize when they're emotionally cheating, and will grow incredibly upset with you if you point it out to them. and yet, after you break up, they'll end up marrying the person they "were not emotionally cheating on you with" when you spend less time with your depressed, emotional, postpartum wife to commiserate with an understanding female colleague, who's to say you're more than just friends? who's to say the wife's not just being overly possessive and jealous?

@@XZ-III Honestly it took me a long time to accept myself, even now still kinda sacred to be fully myself at times; it's a process. I noticed people tend to have a "reaction" based on how I identify. When I was acting out the ideal masculine (via society standards), I was lonely, depressed, only until I truly embraced my feelings, did I notice a positive change in how people interacted with me... Thats why I identify as non-binary now, bc I no longer focus on male or female aspects, it's just genuineness/vibes that's truly attractive, regardless of gender or sex. It's tough tho, societal standards really messed everyone up. Most of my depression and anxiety was due to my focusing on being the "ideal male" instead of being just me....life is counterintuitive

I find this video to be quite encouraging, and I think other people should to. I often feel that for both sexes, we tend to pressure each other to fit gender stereotypes much more pervasively than the occasional bout of mate selection. Men will tear down other men for not being sufficiently athletic, productive or promiscuous, while women tear down other women for not sufficiently materially independent, emotionally vulnerable or coy around sex. Keeping both the male and the female gaze in mind, I feel like the pressure is taken off of both. Women like men who are a bit goofy, awkward and sensitive, and men like women who are forward with their desires and interests, even if they are not materially well-off or forthcoming with their emotional vulnerabilities. I think the social pressure is honestly kind of a crabs in a bucket mentality: sensitive men's greater appeal threaten the self conception of manly men, who wants to believe can win love without emotional vulnerability, while a sexually available woman undermines what many women believe to be the greatest point of leverage to secure a relationship with a man: sexual exclusivity. This is seems likely why the male/female gaze ideal partner provokes such emnity to both parties. Actual love involves vulnerability, which means putting yourself on the line and being willing to risk a bad outcome and this is the truth regardless of gender or sexual orientation. Those who are unready for the risk of real love recoil at this truth and anyone who reminds them of it. As for health and status weighing the scales, I think that this is natural enough, and should neither be condemned nor unduly elevated. Health and status are just general goods, attractive to anybody for their own sake. For that reason, I would argue that you should focus on cultivating these for you, not for other people, as it is easier and more practical. In the same vein, I don't think we should belittle people for having standards. Nobody is entitled to anybody's attraction, and if your health or status is really that much of an impediment for you, you'll find it more rewarding in the long run to focus on cultivating those first. Take the L and keep moving forward. As we've seen, you probably don't need quite as much as you think

I meant to just play this video in the background while I folded my laundry but the argument was so fascinating I stopped and my eyes have just been glued to the screen. I love how you took a pretty rounded approach here - considering not only what males look for in females and vice versa, but what each gender likes about themselves and how these ideas might manifest in homosexual relationships.

I liked the explanation of what the male and female gaze are. I'm not sure that it's mainly biologically innate though, a few of the papers linked in the description don't seem to rule out socialisation as a factor in the preferences studied.

Also from personal experience, I have done a lot of self-introspection and studied others around me, all aspects of male and female attraction is solely social. To me, excusing everything as biological doesn't fix anything, and it keeps a lot of social problems intact. Yes, it's innately biological to want to be sexually active, but, that cannot be defined by one thing or another. The only thing that's innately biological is interesting sexual intercourse, and that's it. How you're attracted or what you're attracted to whether on a physical or spiritual level, is completely independent person by person, or how society affects them and their opinion. Although, I have to say though, and this is something very very important we need to keep in mind as a society, since so many young people these days are so confused about their sexualities, we need to make a starker line between the differences. What I mean by this is, I know I have some point was confused whether I was perhaps even bisexual or even a lesbian, but eventually I realized that, biologically speaking, heterosexual intercourse is largely focused on the woman. That being said, it is completely healthy and normal from a heterosexual standpoint for a heterosexual man and a heterosexual woman to be equally sexually aroused and or affected by seeing a sexualized woman. On the other hand, it is somewhat unnatural to be equally aroused by some random dude who happens to be sexualized, especially when it comes to muscles and such. Not to say that a heterosexual woman cannot be sexually aroused by a man, it just needs to be specifically her man and in a bedroom circumstance. A woman definitely can be sexually aroused visually speaking by a man, but it's purely contextual and relationship-based. For example I would be very much attracted to my man in that context, but I would not be randomly sexually aroused by some random dude who decided to take his shirt off in the street. In fact, I find that an extremely annoying situation, like bro, I don't want to see your man boobs LOL I don't like being stared at by bare nipples But anyways, society teaches us that heterosexual sex is purely male oriented, when it's actually pretty equal without social standards, but in a way kind of prioritizes women. In fact, and a lot of ancient religions, women are considered prioritized when it comes to sex. In fact, in the old testament, also known as the torah, it is mentioned that, a particular woman, named tamar, married three brothers each separately, and one of them died as a punishment by God because he refused to have sexual relations with her give love to his wife in that manner. So, that being said, if there has been ancient writings that speak of prioritizing female sexual pleasure, and also the fact that millions of women get sexually aroused by seeing another woman and trying to avert their gaze out of respect of that other woman, and also despite this sexual arousal that she might feel towards another woman, she would never ever ever actually want to be sexually active with another woman, just get sexual arousal from it. This proves this point, the fact that both heterosexual men and women are equally sexually aroused by seeing another woman, it does not render her bisexual. This is an important distinction we need to make, and I remember actually talking to a teenage girl about this, and for reference, I myself am in my late teens, so it wasn't anything strange or anything, I just happened to be later in adolescence then most of my peers, but anyways, I remember her talking to me about how she feels sexual arousal when she sees an alluring woman, but yet she doesn't actually have interest in having any sexual relations with a woman ever. She said that she was afraid of being lgbt, meaning that it didn't really fit with your personal identity, but she was afraid to be put into that box and it just didn't feel like it was authentic to her, but yet she didn't know what to do with this sense of sexual arousal towards the same gender. I assured her, as someone who has experienced the same thing, that it's perfectly normal for a heterosexual female, and it has nothing to do with lesbianism or bisexuality. On the other hand, if there was genuine interest in wanting to actually have sexual relations with a woman and not just so happens to be aroused by the appearance of another woman being naked, then that would be completely different and she would have to accept the fact that she was lgbt. This is why we need to make this dark differentiation, because so many kids end up feeling forced into a label that isn't them, because of these standards we have made that sex surounds a man, and so therefore believes that, if a woman doesn't automatically feel that same sexual arousal that a man might feel towards a woman, then therefore she must be gay on some level.

@@otakumangastudios3617 How interesting. I haven't seen someone put this into words quite beyond "all women are bisexual" which just never quite rung true with me or what I observed from other women. My personal take has always been most every time you see a female's body is in a purely sexual context. Meanwhile, male's bodies are more often presented in a neutral or comedic context, something not to take seriously. Or as something to admire when optimum physique is in question. So, I blamed my near automatic arousal to seeing a woman's body only on I've been conditioned to see it as inherently sexual. Not saying "tv turned me gay" as the joke goes, but would you consider that technically true given this context? (I am heterosexual, I never was sexually attracted to a woman before. But only just recently I realized I've never been sexually attracted to a man either, for I'm actually asexual... Problems in my relationship of 8 years make more sense now, but this is kinda besides the point of the original topic.)

Several other studies look at promiscuity and factors of attraction across the animal kingdom, and it’s always the same. The sex that dedicates the highest biological investment in reproduction is almost always less promiscuous. There are several examples where males actually take on the less promiscuous, highly selective role because of their high reproductive investment. Socialization does play a role in humans, but the behavior is definitely innate (I have a PhD in biology and evolution)

@@jesssterling5915 I' m certain that 99.99% of sexual preferences are locked down since birth. Though, attractibility on other hand, seem more fluid somehow. Some transverstites are higly attractable to heterosexuals, until they revealed their biological sex, then repulsion started.
