Sexual Attraction

[Anon2381]

I'd take a guess that the attraction to Bill Maher makes sense in terms of evolution.

For a man it makes more sense to get young fertile eggs, for a woman it makes sense to get a powerful man with money, resources, status and so on.

I don't think Bill's jokes or laugh would work as well on women if he worked at a petrol station.

Dude, no. If any of my real life friends heard something like that as an explanation of something related to me, they'd laugh. I'm the most simple person when it comes to money and resources. I truly don't give a fuck what people have. [snipped examples, because TMI]

But what's funny is that you think that what attracts us is his money and "power". Lmao suuuuure because the tv and internet don't have so many other rich younger and better looking dudes to stalk if we felt attracted to those things. It doesn't even make sense.

Also... I'm thinking of the top 7 people who I find attractive (non famous) at this time and I know for sure that 5 of them are broke. Lol hadn't thought of that, but since it came up, why not? I'd buy their beer, no problem. Efff. I do have a weakness for intelligence paired with a smooth, cool, and funny personality. Dude can live in a basement, but know how to build a computer, flirt, and just be cool as fuck, and boom. I once went crazy over a woman I met (whom I still regret losing) and I would have been the sole bread winner if I had kept her close, no problem. If that's what she wanted. Faaaaak. She was special. My depression issues got in the way, though. (Whispers to her: hey, sorry for everything)

So anyway, nah. Your theory, at least in my case, doesn't pass. I know it's a long response but dammit! I've heard this one so many fucking times while sitting at my favorite bar, conversations between dudes, and I sit there trying as hard as I can to not rant and roll my eyes at these strangers. At least now I can do it over the internet. Bahahah

Thats so freaking funny, because I really do feel the same.  Money and things have never been something I cared about. I can see why people would think Bill is sexy for his money, but truthfully I'd rather live in a cardboard box with someone I love than a rich asshole. I'd live with Moondoogie or the Cahuna in a makeshift shack. (Gidget References). Id take care of someone financially if they were my valued partner. But honestly, I don't know what Bill is like when he's off the air. He's a fantasy at this point. Yes looks are important, but sometimes personality wins. I totally understand how money and power could be his attraction, but some of the happiest people are broke, go figure.
I would go back to South Africa in a second and live with the Zulu tribe I once was accepted and welcomed in. No money, No toilet or shower, clean water was a 45 min 
hike. The simplicity of their lives were attractive, and  the sweet smiles of love and contentment.

My parents were pastor/missionaries when I was growing up. They started churches from scratch and helped in others for so many years in both USA and Mexico. The way we lived I can now see was very very very simple. Actually, people would have called us poor. I didn't feel poor, though. I felt just fine. Maybe it has to do with why I don't care about material stuff. I can do just fine with so little.

I tend to my financial needs adequately enough, so "men with money" have never automatically garnered my attention/gotten my motor running. The prospect of being beholden to someone actually makes me quite un-horny.

A guy who's simply able to carry his own weight works well enough for me.

Materialism is not my thing either.

Heck, I don't even have a phone.

I may own a PS4, but that is the only current technology I own. My laptop is years old.

Physical attraction can never last without the proper Chemistry.

Don't tell my inflatable friend. She will never understand. 

Unless by chemistry you mean nitrogen/oxygen/carbon dioxide.

Of course not; Sulfur Hexafluoride is what I meant.

I've seen plenty of conventionally-beautiful women go from zero to ugly in the time it takes to speak five words.

I like me some hotness, but there's got to be a lot more than looks for me to be involved.
