It's obvious that nowadays and probably also in the past beautiful women are put on a pedestal. ( Meaning: treating differently than other persons) I don't know why we men do that. I don't see how women like that. Sure they like attention, who doesn't, but I can't imagine them liking a different treatment and men doing everything for approval. What do you think?

Maybe you're preferring to a bimbo or some snob. I don't think most beautiful women would always prefer to be treated as a princess. There are some pretty girls who always keep a low profile despite the fact of having a face that can launch a thousand ships. I have a lot of friends who are very pretty, yet they stay humble, kind, and sincere...

That's exactly what I am saying. Not all girls/women like that and yet we men mostly do treat beautiful girls/women like they're princesses. Now I am wondering do girls really like that and why do men do that? It would seem to me that men who aren't too 'moved' by beauty, but also attach importance to the inner personality of the girl are perceived more attractive.

Speaking on behalf of the girls, I know we all like to be treated as princesses but with an exception to the ones we are attracted to. That is in my opinion I like to be treated as a princess to the one I love or admire. I don't want to get to the point that I'd be spoiled from all his undying attention but just enough for me to feel that he really deserves to hang out with me. A girl who has an astounding beauty plus ideal attitude is a jackpot for guys who get to date that kind of girl. If I were that lucky guy, perhaps I would treat her like my queen. There was one time I asked my boyfriend how do guys choose a girl they want to date. He told me that beauty comes first before the attitude. He even said girls would look more attractive when they smile. Is that true? However, since he chose me... I think he was more moved by my attitude and not by my face alone.. hehe I guess that's how most of us choose our mate.

You're right. Being clever and kind does attract ladies. As a testimony, my boyfriend's not that good-looking but he's real smart and very kind. Don't worry pal, you'll have all your time to shine in the near future... Good luck! ^_~

The ones who are put on the pedestal like it, the rest of us resent it like anything! and let me tell you, those women when they get knocked off, well, sometimes they never figure out why and never change the way they dress or act...

Haha I know. I know a lot of girls who like being put on a pedestal but when I don't do that they get real frustrated and do everything they can to have me put them on a pedestal. This Thursday, I was asked by a girl if I wanted to travel along with her, but her route is way out of my route, so I told her no and she was like: WTF?! haha, so funny. :)

hello diamania, Yeah...so what? Besides..with this technology,we never knew who's born pretty and who's re-modeled. Not to mention the make up and derma thing. Well,we can not blame men for treating the pretty face special. And for those pretty ones to act like princess becoz most men treated them that way. Like the saying goes "beauty is in the eyes of the beholder" (but i guess not applicable in this era due to re-modeled ones) See the real beauty when the woman gets up from bed in the morning (that's natural) imagine those woman who rely on make up...could you imagine how do they look without eyebrows?...hehehe Have a great Sunday

Haha, well I mostly like girls without make up better than those with. Back when I was in psychiatric hospital, no worries I am not insane, I befriended a goth girl and one day she was told she couldn't have make up. I was like: wow you look so much better without all the make up. I really prefer the pure nature instead of virtual reality. ;-)

Hello there diamania! I guess not all women likes to be treated that way especially if the man is a stranger. Sometimes we look it in an indecent way. Well,I guess it will still depend on how a man would treat a woman. Like for example if you are in a public transportation and you offered a seat to a pretty woman,it's fine that way. But for instances like in a bar and you offered a drink to a lady,we feel it's indecent. So I guess it's a case to case basis! So you guys should still be more careful on how you would give special treatment to pretty women. See you around!

Offering a seat is alright, of course, it's old-school politeness. So is holding doors open and walking on the street-side. But buying a drink for a women is lame. That way women are forced to talk and be polite back and that's just... indecent... I try to never put women on a pedestal. I try to joke with women and have fun. I also want to see their 'fun'-side not only their serious or romantic side. ;) Thanks for your insights!

First of all i dont think all beautiful women love attention and try to grab the eyeballs of every men and boy walking down the street.its just a small fraction who does this. And second, the behaviour of treating good looking women in a better way has been going on for ages. It's our hormones which plays the main role in it, but we must refrain from it as lack of beauty is not their fault.

We were stopped by police once.We were driving fast.The police let us get away with it because our driver was a real beauty.Should I blame policemen for their weakness or the beautiful lady who was driving with "I'm beautiful, I'm allowed" on her face?I like attractive women and men, but I prefer intelligent people when I'm doing business or making long-time friends.

I feel sorry for typical faces because they have to live up to that. I won't say they're all beautiful because our opinions can be different.. but the 'all around face' I feel sorry for them, because in the end, they're never praise for what they are or can do but just their face. It must be lonely really.

Beauty on the outside means nothing with the the beauty on the inside. That is why there are so many divorces or dissolved relationships; partners never get past the physical attraction that should lead to intimacy and commitment which is the glue that holds most relationships together. When the passion or physical attraction fizzles out the relationship is doomed.

I won't go through the whole schmeal that beauty is skin deep but can tell you that a man fortunate enough to have a good woman should give her the attention she deserves. My boyfriend is one that loves the way I look and is caring enough at every opportunity to take note of my extra touches. I'm in love. A woman regardless on how she looks should be treated exactly how she deserves vice verse of course.

Yes, beauty is treated differently than others. Some beautiful people don't want the special treatment. Most do. It's human nature to work what we have for all its worth. They do cross the line however, when they are only interested in other wealthy, beautiful people, leaving everyone else in the dust.

Maybe beautiful women is actually did that.But i think maybe not all women are like that.Women all love beauty and like to show it out,but i don't think it is a kind of advantage.So we need to be equally treated,i don't see that we should treat them different because of their beauty,isn't it?
