"Top 15 hobbies that sound attractive to women"

[–] [email protected] 8 points 9 hours ago (3 children)

It's a bit of both. I can see these hobbies leading to a healthy relationship, but anyone who thinks the answer isn't "hit the gym" is coping.

(Btw I'm no gym rat, but this is a fact)

[–] [email protected] 6 points 8 hours ago

Too much generalisation for my taste.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 8 hours ago (1 children)

Hitting the gym can't hurt but it's very low on my list of priorities.

Being chill, open with one's emotions, able to communicate reasonably, willing to help around etc are way higher.

Usually being a woman helps too but life's life.

I had 10/15 of these when I was single, and I was single for a very long time. That is how I had the time to learn all these hobbies/skills.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 10 hours ago (3 children)

Right? Just the other day I was thinking about how many hobbies I dropped once I started seriously dating, and then later how many more when I had kids.

My guitar hasn't been touched in years. My books have gone unread. My 3D printer is getting a workout making organizational tools and little toys for the kids though lol

[–] [email protected] 7 points 9 hours ago (1 children)

If you see my kayak and fishing poles tell them I miss them and I hope I get to spend more time with them when my son is a few years older.

The musical instrument thing is transitory and depends entirely on the instrument.

Pre-relationship; in a popular band playing a more traditional instrument like guitar with a bunch of also attractive people (or at least part of a cool local scene) = hot

In a relationship and/or solo bedroom producing any kind of electronic music and/or buying lots of synthesizers, drum machines or grooveboxes = not hot

Also note how low "clubbing" is on the least attractive list, so no, DJs and electronic musicians who perform live don't get a pass

[–] [email protected] 7 points 7 hours ago (2 children)

If you have a banjo, it's straight up unattractive.

Source : I have a banjo.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 7 hours ago

seriously? I've known several women that fucking love banjo. I would say I've heard more women talk about how cool banjo playing is compared to actual guitars (then again I think it's just a known thing with guitars that doesn't need to be brought up). It might also depend on where you live I suppose. Roll into an Appalachian town stringing a banjo and you'll be the pied piper of the mountain women.

Unironically, women are hot for the handyman. Fixing a friend's sink has gotten me laid more than once.

Judging by what I see on dating sites, fishing is near the bottom of the list. So many women's profiles say something like "I don't want to see a picture of you holding a fish"

[–] [email protected] 19 points 11 hours ago (7 children)

It’s that men don’t take a lot of pictures of themselves. Then they refuse to take any specifically for their dating profiles. Taking pictures specifically for a dating profile would show that they actually care about finding a person they would do other things specifically for.

I wonder if it is fishing itself that they don't like, or if it is the prevalence of fishing photos on dating sites. I know that a lot of guys post fishing photos on their profiles (probably because most men don't take many photos of themselves but will take photos with a nice catch), so maybe it just seems unoriginal or low effort. I'm honestly not sure, but my only point is that it may not be the hobby itself.

[–] [email protected] 16 points 12 hours ago (1 children)

Agreed, I really don't think it's the fishing itself.

Half the problem on any dating site is the classic: 1. Be attractive 2. Don't be unattractive.

If the dude is holding a fish but looks like Chris Evans, she will probably still be interested.

On top of that, dudes holding the fish will overwhelmingly tend to look like the wrap around sunglasses wearing, goatee having, overweight, Trump voting cliche. Women probably build an association to not being compatible with dudes who love fishing after enough times of seeing that and connecting these dots.

"traveling" yikes.

That is one way to say, you think wealth is attractive.

I have traveled quite a bit and I like it a lot, but it is no hobby. For it to be a hobby, I would have to have a lot more money.

Once or even twice a year, is hardly a hobby.

It could also just be women thinking, "I'd like to visit _____ when I'm able, I want my partner to go with me." Working in a passport office, I've met a shocking number of men who have never left the US (or sometimes even the state) by choice. Then their wife or girlfriend wants to go to Mexico or something, and they come in talking about how they're only doing it for her and they'd never travel if it was up to them.

Anyway, I'd consider traveling one of my hobbies even though I can't afford to do it often - plenty of time is spent planning and looking at things to do, so it goes beyond just the few days of the trip.

No one should undertake hobbies because they are attractive to someone else. Unless you want to join groups where you can meet people you’re attracted to, then the activity is just an excuse to mingle. But you are more likely to find a hobby rewarding if you are genuinely interested in it, no matter what others think.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 hours ago* (last edited 6 hours ago)

I've read manual for my new 3D printer but it was in a foreign language so I had to cook up a way to understand it, luckily I travel a lot so learning languages is not that difficult for me. I hope that this writing paints good enough of a picture on how it went. I forged up some way to accelerate my learning process so that I could get trough it swift like an arrow. There certainly were some steep inclines which I had to overcome but in the end it all went swimmingly. The only issue was that I could not muster any courage to approach my crush. I just stood there like a stump and stared at her eyes that glistened like stars. In the end it turned out she was a hoe so I dodged a bullet.

What do you mean Linux is not in the list?

[–] [email protected] 65 points 15 hours ago (2 children)

It's there right at number one, reading. Nobody reads more wikis or man pages than a Linux enjoyer.

Woodworking 94%. Right.

Try ordering a new lathe after you’re married.

[–] [email protected] 85 points 15 hours ago (3 children)

That’s because the deal has already been sealed. They typically wanna keep you off the market, not increase your “resale” value. Unless you’re into that kinda thing. Like, cucking or sharing kinda kinks, not human trafficking. Human trafficking isn’t sexy. Unless you’re into that kind of thing. Like, as a fantasy, not as a real thing. Real human trafficking isn’t sexy. Unless you’re into that kinda thing. Like, as in humans stuck in traffic or transforming into cars and being stuck in traffic, not as being sold as a commodity. Unless you’re into that kind of thing.

I’m not into guys but as a woman I’m surprised blacksmithing isn’t higher. How am I supposed to be your knight in shining armor if you can’t make me some shining armor?

[–] [email protected] 16 points 12 hours ago (1 children)

It's going to be boob armor and just leather straps to attach it over a bikini.

Manosphere is (to my understanding) Andrew Tate, Joe Rogan, etc. Basically content that promotes men acting like Neanderthals. Why any percentage of women found that attractive is beyond my comprehension.
