NO, men and women are so different that, if it weren't for the ability to reproduce with each other, a compelling argument could be made that men and women are a different species.

Best thing I read today.

. Men, if you really want to attract a woman, skip the gym and the weights (which ALL of them universally recommend to each other), forget about making your face beautiful, and go learn how to talk and listen to women, write sonnets, songs, play the guitar or something.

You are so right.

I would add that men who are over-concerned with their looks are actually quite effeminate.

I have to laugh when I read various non-Catholic forums, usually populated by a lot of anti-feminists ("manosphere" or "red pill" types) and they talk about getting women -- they approach it from a completely physical male-minded perspective, as if women are just like men, only prettier or with different plumbing.

Since they, a bunch of men, are attracted by the physical, they assume women are as well!

Hahaha!

This goes both ways.

Women thinking that men are attracted to the same things we do (leadership, resources, independence, strength, etc). That is why modern women brag about their degrees, successful careers, or "I make more money than you", etc...like men actually cared about those things; (instead of looks). It is laughable.

It is as if each sex projects itself into the other, being actually clueless of each other; instead of recognizing that we do seem different species; only to be united for the procreation of families in Marriage.  

I think this is, for the most part, a modern phenomenon, though. People before used to have a better perception of the differences between male and female nature.

Women are MUCH less concerned with looks than men are.

For some reason, though, that's shifting in the younger generations.  I believe Croix that the newer generations primarily go after men for their looks.  I heard an EWTN radio show where the priest said that statistics indicate that pretty much half of all visitors to porn sites are women / girls.
