We're speaking generally here. The fact that men remark that your confidence is unusual shows that is a relatively rare trait in women. Also, we're not saying that women cannot be confident in different areas, we're talking about confidence as it attracts the opposite sex. In some cases, a woman's confidence in her sexuality might be sexually appealing. Generally speaking, her confidence in the boardroom is not. It may be admirable, but it's not really a turn on.I must respectfully disagree with the assertion that a woman can only have confidence vis a vis her sexuality ...<snip>... Men frequently remark how unusual and refreshing it is to be honest..
Again, we're talking about confidence as it attracts the opposite sex. It's great that this guy is comfortable in his own skin. You respect him, but are you turned on by him? If so, are you saying you find his confidence appealing even though his SMV is low? Or is it possible his confidence, or comfort with himself and his lifestyle, actually raises his SMV?I also disagree that confidence in a man requires high SMV or great success. I have a crackerjack tradesperson who works for me some 10 years or so, is not attractive, is not wealthy; he lives modestly and day to day, but he exhibits confidence in who he is, what he does, and how he leads his life; he is fair, reasonable, and expects to be respected as a man.
And yes I respect him.
