Jokes aside OP, yeah they do but not like how you think. They like the fighter MENTALITY. Say someone wants to mug you and your girl while you’re walking down the street. Are you gonna freak out and break down like a sissy or are you gonna remain calm and figure out a way to gtfo of there? Maybe even kick his ass if you see a chance to, too? The dude who has the mentality of a staying calm is much more manly than the sissy who will break down and cry. In the same way, the dude who will fight back and kick the other guy’s ass is even more manly. Now let’s put it like this into a more mathematical way since you seem to understand it better:
Man = masculine.
Woman = feminine.
In the same way that opposite magnetic charges attract each other, masculinity and femininity ALSO attract each other. Therefore, the more masculine/manly you are, the more attractive you will seem to women (who again, are inherently feminine). Not only that, but people in general respect others who are GENUINELY tough. Those gangbangers in prison? Most of them are sissies outside of their gang and you know that. But some other guys in there are actually some real scary dudes whom no one really messes with because they actually are GENUINELY strong and tough. These are masculine traits which are attractive towards women.
