Well-kept manicure and pedicure 

For many men, well-kept nails, hands, and feet are part of being put together and looking feminine. Men like women wearing red nail polish as well as muted, natural shades. The vast majority do not like seeing acrylic nails and neon colors.

Small feet

Tiny feet symbolize not only elegance but also moral virtue and modesty. This is why men find tiny feet to be irresistible.

Petite in size

Men prefer petite to tall women. They see taller women as more conventionally attractive and more intelligent than shorter women. However, shorter women are seen as "more nurturing and likely to be better mothers."

Long legs

There are numerous reasons why guys obsess over legs, including an assumption that a woman with solid legs is fitness oriented and therefore is healthy. Ideally, if a woman has just a bit longer than the average length of the legs, men will notice.

Red lips or dress

Though men do not pay too much attention to women's fashion, they love seeing ladies wearing a touch of red. It could be a shade of red lipstick, a red dress, or a red manicure. The color of heat and passion never goes out of style.

The way a woman walks

Researchers have found that the most appealing walks usually involve a slight sway in the hips and short steps. It is a skill, so women can practice showing off their curves in a naturally seductive way. Though men like heels, if a woman is struggling, that is not an attractive way to show off her walking skills.

Female scent

Men find the scent of women's reproductive hormones attractive, which is why they disapprove of women bathing in perfumes. But when It comes to fragrances, they like light florals, like jasmine and lavender, with fresh citrusy aromas.

Laughing at men's jokes

While men appreciate a woman with a sense of humor, most guys enjoy nothing more than seeing their girl smiling at something they say.

Maintaining eye contact

A woman who maintains solid eye contact signals her interest and confidence. Eye contact has an arousing effect on men and makes a woman appear intelligent, sincere, and courageous.

Mature look

While women are busy trying to find youth serum, men tend to like mature-looking women the most. Guys want their partner to be the epitome of feminine authentic, intense, and spontaneous energy, so they gravitate toward women who are in their early 30s. Researchers claim that women peak at 31.

Naturally thick brows

Thicker brows look healthy, and even scientists have proven they are more attractive, especially to men who want a long-term partner. Thicker brows stand out and give a frame to the eyes.

Teeth gap

Pearly white teeth are absolutely attractive. Yet, they do not have to be perfectly straight, as many guys find teeth gaps adorable. Women with tooth gaps are considered bright, creative, and unique.

Taking risks

By taking a walk on the wild side, a woman signals to her man that she is ready to share adventures with him. A guy also gets a chance to be protective while hiking, bungee jumping, or kayaking with the woman of his dreams.

A healthy dose of Independence

A woman who is independent but emotionally available is highly desirable. She does not need a man but wants him because of his qualities.

Healthy, shiny hair

Shiny hair indicates good health and implies that a woman enjoys taking care of herself. Though most guys prefer long hair, a shorter one can look just as attractive if it looks feminine and well-maintained. 

Higher pitch

A higher-pitched voice is youthful and feminine, which makes it attractive. This does not mean a woman should fake her naturally raspy or deep voice. Being yourself is the ultimate turn-on!

C-cup

Some men like smaller breasts, while others prefer D cups. Since women with C cups are most satisfied with their breast size, their confidence is something men pick up on, and that makes C cup ladies even more attractive.

Natural appearance

Most guys prefer to see a woman with minimal makeup. Study after study has shown that men prefer women without heavy makeup, which implies they enjoy seeing fresh and healthy-looking faces.

Pouty lips

The symmetric and full lips are incredibly appealing. Similarly, guys like women who pout. Interestingly, psychologists claim that having fuller lips is a sign of blood flow on the face which is essential to health and fertility.

Larger forehead

A larger forehead symbolizes intelligence while appearing cute and youthful. 

Dressing like an adult

Men like women to either wear provocative but elegant clothes or something comfortable with a hint of curves. From wearing skirt suits and little dresses to yoga pants, guys want a woman who dresses like a woman, not a girl. 

Taking initiative

Men value a woman bold enough to take the initiative. They do not always want to chase women, and only a woman who knows what she wants and has confidence will make the first move. That is quite appealing! 

Being a good listener

When they have an emotional problem, men would rather talk to women since they are usually better listeners with more empathy and problem-solving nature. Knowing how to listen and read cues is highly ranked on the list of attractive qualities.

Nurturing nature

Nurturing women are seen as supportive and encouraging to those around them. They want to see others succeed and are always there to offer a helping hand. This trait is among the most attractive to men, representing one of the finest feminine qualities.

Confidence 

A woman can have all the curves, a gorgeous smile, and perfect legs, but she might not get noticed if she is not confident. Confident women are not arrogant. They merely know what they want, and men greatly respect that.
