Why are guys so obsessed with a girl's body?

ah,yes i forgot to add something,i am sorry if your father is like that..mine isn't...he sais he likes bautiful women but i never saw him stearing at one on the street,or commenting about one,he just says he likes shakira but he sais it in a funny way...he sais that old guys looking at young girls are not normal because when he looks at a young girl he only sees her as his daughter,as i am alreasy 21... and when i see a 40-50-60 years old guy looking at me on the street or telling me something,it disgusts me...i keep thinking about his poor wife that must be at home ,and maybe he has kids my age...it's sick if you ask me..i dont know how far normality goes nowadays

Men are given permission in this society to oggle women regardless of whether its rude, obscene, or disgusting. Your 60 year old dad is doing what society permits him to do. I can totally understand how upset this makes you! I hate it when men stare at my body for no good reason. What I've stared to do is to stare right back at them. Usually they don't notice at first because they're looking at my chest or butt. But when they see me "catching them in the act," they usually look embarrased and look quickly away. Men who act like that are usually cowards, anyway. ~Wyrdsister

i agree with you but no matter what they are gonna look at other girls. as long as they just look and don't touch. i don't know why they just can't be satisfied with looking at their own wife's body. but to be honest, there are some girls like that too.

well the ugly truth is that men are like that to a certain degree.well it is more like we cannot help looking at others.it is kind of like within us.in our nature.so i am sorry to say but your father is right!any man who says that he does not look at other girls even when he is in a relationship is either lying to you or he is gay!

Umm.. Ok I am guy. And I am not going to say for all the guys just for myself. I think its my habit to check out girls not for the curves she has, nor to judge that she needs my approval, but does she meet my standards. Not that I want to get her into bed or anything. I have some ideal image for girls and I simple compare her with that standard. Thats it. I dont comment on how she looks to her. or to anyone else. Its just a momentary though that cross my mind. I dont personally judge a person by how many curves she has or how she dresses... unless i have talked to her or any guy for that matter you cant say she or he is a good girl or a bad girl.

Men! I hate when they look at other chicks, and are so open about it, when ur in the car and talking to them but they are checking out chicks walking down the street really frustrates me. especially when they are ooooh she has a nice butt or nice boobs, it makes us women feel so degraded and that we are not good enough for them. The rule" u can look but u can't touch" is stupid. if men were not so open about it, there would not be such a big problem its because they tell u wanted they like about other women. they should be us what they like about us.

I think its just one of those natural things that things or people with beauty attract the eye. I am very happily married but I do find other women also physically attractive, fortunately my wife finds this amusing and teases me about it. My motto has always been, and always will be, look but don't touch unless I can afford it - the price?? divorce, half of what I have and a miserable life in the future.

hmmmm...answer is quite simple.. its coz ladies bodies are more beautiful than a guys'

I know wht you mean.. you see guys out there checking out girls even with their girlfriends or wives standing RIGHT NEXT TO THEM!!!

yes i m agree with you too.. i hate those guys who just feel girls body as a part of their hot discussions... they have no respect of man at any age. by the way my hubby not at all like this he not only respect woman he also not intend to shake with them or stare at them without any reason. He is a true muslim and respect the women as it is described in our religion.

not all men are like that.. me, i admire girls for their looks and nice body but admiration for me is different from love.. and i really love my girlfriend.. im satisfied with her..

Everybody is saying it's natural but I don't think it's right, especially if the man is married. I mean, girls don't do that. Girls don't turn all googly eyed over every guy they see, especially not if they're married. Guys need to learn to control themselves and that marriage is a commitment to one person. Even if you just look, and you don't touch, it's still not right to fantasize. It's not loyal.

guys are programmed that way from birth they just naturally look at someone attractive once ok it is their instinct twice come on be respectful of your wives girlfriends significant others please don't kill yourself!

Must be the hormones! I would welcome their appreciation but never the obsession.

well you better go kill yourself you cannot tell me that you never look at guys if you say you dont then i will call you a liar you must be too young to understand biology (younger than about 8) to not know such things i recomend that you stay at school un til you are at least 15

It is the way we are made! Let me put it this way...... In all the other Animal Kingdoms, the MALE is the pretty one, and the female is the "Dowdy" one Look at the Peacock !! Most of the Paradise Birds! The Lion, and the Lioness There are lots more, but at the moment I cannot think of them! Take Mankind......... Why do they call it Mankind and not Womankind??? Woman is the pretty one!!!! Therefore, the Male looks!!!!

OMG I WROTE A WHOLE LONG POST AND IT WOULDN'T LET ME POST IT IM SO MAD

do u know that it is a common phenomenon amongst the boys but it is fast catching up with the girls also.In my view it all is basically how u take it.If once in a while someone checks out anyone then its all right but it shouldnt be made a habit.I too had a same habit But I got over it and it all happened since I fell in love .I made a conscious effort to neglect this habit whenever I saw some one Hot passing by I avoided starring at her and made myself busy in some other thought.And I finally got over this sick habit.It all begins for the sake of havimg fun and then it becomes a habit .i guess those who are into it donot want to give it up.Try to reason with them and give some of my tips to them so that they could overcome this habit.

well, as i see it, men are always men..its their nature, to get so obsessed with a girls body..they may look at it as a way to pull out their stress..or maybe they would see it as a pleasure(as always..) we cannot merely trust a guy when he's out of his home!!he can do anything..anything with girls, specially..they really think thier "macho" when they have a lot of girls fooling around them opps, who will be fooled by them rather..they love to fool gurls, specially VIRGINS and MARRIED gurls!!!!heheheheh

well that's a man and it's natural for a man to look at the body of a woman...
