“Man she fine, now dats da type of girl I could take home to meet my T-Lady,” states Dalton Green, a junior at Texas Southern University. While many teenage boys enter the stage of puberty and begin dating, they don’t really understand what type of girl they want. Most teenage guys determine what type of girl they want by the way she looks, which means their choice in girls or women is fully based on physical appearance.However, as boys grow into men, the question as to “what type of woman they want,” is questionable for quite some time. This is a question unanswered, mainly because most men do not know what type of woman they want, because a lot of men do not have standards as high as the female sex. It’s almost like this; if she looks good then she can be my girl.
“I really don’t know what type of woman is considered my type, I’ve been with several women who possess different qualities and personalities,” says a male architecture major here at Prairie View A&M University.
While many men feel the same way, there are also very many men who know exactly what type of woman they like. Senior architecture major Edric Neal says, “When considering a female to be girlfriend material, I feel that her personality is most important, mainly because if she does not have a decent personality, then there is no way the relationship will last. Her appearance is also very important, because I don’t want to be with a female who doesn’t care about her physical appearance. I want her to look good, at least when she’s with me.”
A recent survey was done among 20 male college students, ranging in age from 20 to 25, consisting of various classifications. The survey revealed that most men approach a female, first because of her appearance.
However, the results also revealed that when men between the ages of 20 to 25 are looking to be in a relationship with a woman, sex is the most important. While sex was rated as being the most important, when it came to a woman’s goals in life that seems to be rated as least important.
“If the sex ain’t right, then I don’t want to be with her, because your sexual relationship has to be right in order for ya’ll to be happy with one another,” says 20-year-old DeRoyce Freeman.
The results of this survey indicate that most males want a woman who has a nice personality. Not only does she have to possess a great personality but also she has to provide him with a sexual relationship that meets his expectations. All other qualities seem to be less important.
Although, there may be many women who feel the same way, men seem to have less requirements when choosing what type of woman they want. Dalton Green says that his requirements remain the same, and have for some time now. “She has to be doing something with herself, going to school, working or something,” he said. “I can’t be her Sugar Daddy. I want someone who is independent, smart, yet fun to be around. I feel like everything else will fall in place as time permits.
