When I'm not thinking about relationships (and the troubles I have in finding any) I tend to, as a policy, try not to make judgments about people based on their sex. So, for me, making a list of things I like and dislike about women in general would be impossible and meaningless.

The only way in which a question "What do you like about women?" means anything to me is how it differs from "What do you like about men?". What women have got that men haven't is that I am sexually attracted to many of them, and that's about it. It changes the dynamic of everything, and can be a negative as well as a positive in certain circumstances (for example of the attraction is only one-way) but that is the only difference I'm taking into consideration here.

I really like the quirkiness of some of them and the ability of some of them to just go from topic to topic in a conversation and not really have any coherence. The best way I can describe it is that some girls have these kinds of circus minds that are pretty entertaining to dig into. I also like how light-hearted some girls are.

What I really dislike about girls has been covered in many of the posts in this thread, so it doesn't need to be mentioned again.

Something uniquely female that I like in women? The first thing that comes to mind is that, by nature of how a woman's attention to world around her works, women do have a certain type of pragmatism and practicality about things that a guy can't easily emulate.

As an Apsie woman, I hope you guys realize that we say what we mean, and mean what we say. I have found that my bluntness is welcome among the men I've crossed paths with. I thought every woman did that, but apparently not.

The wording of the statement by the OP is kind of problematic, in that anything especially female, whether a guy likes or dislikes it, could be called "femininity". So while there are things I like in women other than femininity, they are more "things I like about people".

It's also complicated by the fact that what I like romantically is somewhat different from what I like in just a sex partner and friend. But in most circumstances, it's like this:

I like:
Their beauty, especially their smiles, and the fact that they have different body parts.
Their general depth and intuitiveness in the interpersonal area, which balances out my "thing" focus.
Their nurturing qualities.
The fact that they tend to be more flexible than men.

My dislikes should be clear from many of the other posts I've made on here.

Of course, none of these are universal to all women and absent from all men, except for the body parts.

What I like
1-Long hair
2-Narrow, Gracefull necks
3-The swing in thier hips when they walk-Having a waist
4-They normaly smell nice.
5-The are soft
6-They are not men
7-They make better friends
8-Soft kisses
9-Hugs
10-Breasts. No idea why. But I love those things. I'll try to stop staring now.
11-They are everything I am not.

What I don't like
1-Living with them. I drive them nuts, they drive me nuts. But then again, it's the same with males.
2-Not living with them. A woman makes a home...a home. If there are no women in a house, it becames cave, a tent. an animal den

you what?
my prev (ultimately unsuccessful) longer term relationship w a chick went to hell BECAUSE of her absolute inability to be blunt. EVERYTHING was packaged into something else. everything was camoflaged and falsified, i used to get desperate and BEG her to simply BE BLUNT ffs :D

so yes, i can believe that your bluntness has been appreciated :D

Yes indeed! I always wonder if they really know what that walk does to us ... *sigh*

Good insight. And very true.

:lol:

To me it seems like a huge waste of energy, brainspace, and words to operate like your ex-gf does.

My other huge pet peeve is passive aggressiveness. Can't stand it.

Well as long as I don't have to waste brainpower trying to figure out what you really mean (assuming you're being blunt, after all), I wouldn't need to be all passive-aggressive to compensate...

Hmm I've been observing something pretty interesting. It seems that the most optimistic Aspie men are the older ones. You all seem to have had relationships, or have a wife or gf. As where the younger aspie guys have trouble. Could this be because it's hard to fins an understanding woman, and women become more understanding as we get older?


Dunno about older, but I do know that being a single mother with a young child or two will totally change their perception of me...

Which is not to imply that they were necessarily just looking for a meal ticket. My perception is that suddenly quirky and weird are not nearly as important as reliability, being unflappable and not having a roving eye.

Alright, I'll grant that social reinforcement plays some role in gender personality. But I don't think it's entirely responsible.

What might be silly is if the positive and caring qualities of women are being 'negated' for men, who are encouraged to be stupid and destructive in our culture for the purpose of sexual dimorphism. "Oh, look, he can blow people's heads off! He's a man!" Just because we're not the ones nursing babies doesn't mean we need to take our personalities to the ridiculously opposite extreme.

Just something for 'macho men' to think about. ;)



U might notice that as culture and race evolves the physical properties of an individual looses their influence on his character and "traits"
for instance
Big muscles lost their function in the industrial and information age and it is no coincidence that this development and other like it encouraged the feminist movement
the same things applies for breasts as a factor in woman behavior or properties
evolution is also an endless process toward equality between male and female and this process is built on us defining ourselfs byound or above our fysical properties
some of us are left behind
a macho would look for and would attract to the "feminine" properties of a women
what attract me in a women is her creativity,independence,truthfulness... etc
i don't look for and i don't need the so called "feminine" properties in a women as i'm not a baby and I'm not a child and doesn't need nurturing or caring
what i need is courageous and wholesome person that is equal to me so we can create and observe and learn together on the basis of our mutual attraction to on another
women are my main and only obsession but it is an obsession of a grown man

BTW
Many AS women and man are considered androgynous by the current society standard and i feel lucky to be on of them as part of my lacking the so called "social skills" is my rejection of what is considered appropriate for man or a woman
yet
i know and feel that I'm 100 times more "man" than the average macho and i know that my detachment from what is considered appropriate in today society brings me much closer to true love
i had plenty of confirmations to strengthen my altitude toward this painful and complicated subject
most of them from a women who were like me
"autistics" that didn't give a cr#p on what society deemed apropriate for a man or a woman
only equality can enables the level of interaction and depth need to sustain love as the stereotypical limits our life to a vary narrow repertoire of acts,com channels and perceptions/
