Men are not much different from women. They fantasize about being with movie stars and famous athletes, and are attracted to beauty, intelligence and a sense of humor, but there are some characteristics which top a mans checklist for their ideal woman. Most of these craved attributes show that men are searching for many similar things that women are in a partner. Despite some who may disagree, what most of them want is reasonable and logical.

Call it shared common interests or companionship, but what men really want is someone fun-loving who truly enjoys spending time with them. This search for a woman who can be their best friend blends into some of the other things which men look for, like a woman that admires them, is supportive, honest and encouraging. However, men dont expect or want this best friend to spend every minute of the day focused on them. A self-sufficient woman who encourages a man to follow his interests and hobbies is as important to him as having her be a best friend. This confident woman shows her trust and unconditional love for him by letting him be himself.

Of course, it would be dishonest to talk about what men want without mentioning that the fun-loving woman above is made irresistible by her passionate attitude about sex. Her healthy attentiveness to her figure and appearance is important to him too, but what many surveys have revealed as more important is a womans ability to be up-front or generally excited about having sex with him. This characteristic reinforces his satisfaction with the relationship both biologically and emotionally. Men want their straightforward, self-assured, nurturing woman, to translate those elements energetically into the bedroom with a mix of spontaneity. A woman that wholeheartedly and lovingly finds ways, both outside and in the bedroom, to inspire him about life, will almost always satisfy what he wants.
