 Top Five Things that Turn a Man Off!

by WiseWoman

The top 5 things that turn most men off are:

  1. Bad Hygiene 

    is  offensive but for those men out there who are experienced devotees of giving “the ultimate sensual pleasure” to a woman, I commend you and profusely thank you from the bottom of my heart <snicker>. Personal hygiene is extremely important and although I imagine MOST women are very aware of this factor, it seems that many of the men who wrote to me had this as their number one turn off. I have a tip here for any man or woman who knows a woman with a chronic vaginal odor problem, this is a tried and true WONDER cure for said problem. Cranberry Juice!!! Most women know about it, especially those who lived in a dorm in college. Cranberry juice is one of the best cures for many “female” proclivities and you should drink 8 ounces or more of it per day. And before you are going to have sex, naturally, wash well so you don’t have to worry about turning your man off!!! (Common sense to me).
  2. Communication

    I was amazed by the amount of men who wrote about this because historically, it is the women who usually complain about the lack of communication from the men. However, I am acutely aware of the difference between the two different languages we use to TRY to communicate but again, that is a whole other article. So I will list the main objectives the men had and there are some VERY valid points that they made. These are big turn-offs for men: A woman who talks only about herself thereby not showing any interest in him, women who talk about other men; ex-husbands, current “other” lovers and the like; women who talk about non-sexual things during the sexual act, like their kids, what they did that day or the WORST boo boo, calling him another man’s name; women who have little or nothing of interest to talk about (this being a common complaint coming from dozens of highly intellectual men and yes, to my delight, there are many on SexyAds <smile>); women who have lied about their sexual prowess i.e. who claim beforehand that they love giving head but when they do it, they are BAD at it, i.e. doing it for only a few minutes, doing it out of obligation or doing it when you clearly DON’T like doing it.

    MEN want us to tell them what we want, explicitly and in detail (this is a BIG turn-on for them) so if they ask what you want and you don’t tell them they (mistakenly) think you are not really interested. Most men are so intent on making sure they please the woman that they think the ONLY sure way to do it is to find out exactly what she likes (forgetting that they might already have the skills and just the sheer sexiness to just wing it and go for it). They might be less self-confident and start asking questions like “do you want me to eat your pussy?” which, any woman knows, can be VERY unromantic and break the magic. I think I could probably write an entire article on this one factor…….women are more into the “romance of the seduction” when a man takes his time to explore her whole body and find out what makes her squirm, while men want to know up front, a list of things they have to do to secure her that almighty ORGASM. A woman for sure wants the orgasm eventually, BUT the “discovering” of her body, the intrigue of what he will do next, is what keeps HER hot so this is indeed a delicate catch 22.  As a woman, I want to slowly reveal my skills, ever so sneakily surprise my lover with tantalizing techniques so he won’t know what to expect next. This is what I mean by spontaneous seduction. I think women feel that if they have to tell a man how to make love to her, it spoils the intrigue for her. So although it is NOT a turn off for men when a woman doesn’t tell him what she wants, in my experience, the times I have been explicit with a man and told him in detail how to do what I need him to do, not only have I been blissfully satisfied, but the man has thanked me profusely over and over saying that he will NEVER forget his experience because he felt so incredibly successful, studly and like he was the BEST lover on the face of the Earth. So ladies, it’s your call. And gentlemen, please be sensitive to the magic of the moment as a woman is sighing and moaning, don’t break the spell you are casting upon her to ask her a question.  Use your intuition. Take the time to learn a woman’s body and you will be rewarded in ways you never thought possible.  Being a sensitive lover is a learned virtue. If you can discuss your desires beforehand, the success of the lovemaking can be more spontaneous and satisfying once you finally get to the act.

    One more thing that the men asked me to mention here as far as communicating was it seems that a good deal of men spend a lot of sincere time, effort and energy on SexyAds, not to mention the money they spend to get the opportunity to offer themselves to you ladies, and they say that few women bother to respond. I can’t tell you how many have told me that I am the ONLY one who has written back to them. I feel that if anyone has taken the time to inquire about my availability or interest possibilities, I can at least have the decency to respond one way or another. If I get a rude or crude email, I still respond with a smile, thanking him for giving me the opportunity to maintain a high level of honor for myself and for him (without feeling it necessary to lower myself to his base level of self-disgust) and wish him well. Not only do I appeal to you ladies to respond to every email you receive, I simply can’t take them all on by myself <wicked grin> and since you are on SexyAds to meet MEN, I challenge you to take some of the gentlemen for yourselves. (Stepping down off soapbox now).
  3. Spitters

Men absolutely positively DETEST spitters. I am always amazed when men tell me there are women out there who actually spit out their semen. I can’t think of anything more off-putting than that (of course he’s already cum so his sexual energy is already spent and he just wants to get on with life or go to sleep <giggle>) but apparently it’s true. If you expect him to devour you and all your juices, don’t you think it’s fitting to reciprocate? That is a prerequisite to passing “Sexual Goddess 101.” <smirk>.

  1. “Money grubbing materialistic women”

A direct quote from a man who responded and many others had the same sentiment. I have thought long and hard about this, wondering if I myself have ever come off leaving a man to wonder if I was indeed a money grubbing materialistic woman (MGMW). I have a different bent on this (<chuckle> go figure). Because of my upbringing, the criteria by which I choose a man with whom I desire spending my time warrants many things that may point to the ILLUSION that I am a MGMW. However, I am not. I simply require from my man as a MINIMUM requirement, that which I bring to the table. That is, I don’t ask for anything more than that which I also offer. So that being said, if I require someone who is fiscally sound, well educated, cultured etc, I am simply trying to match my OWN offerings, thereby narrowing the “mismatch” spectrum and expanding the chances of more commonalities. 

On the other hand, those women who are of meager means who can barely support themselves and their offspring, seeking someone to raise their station in life, might well be considered MGMW and I feel sorry for the men who are duped by this type of woman unless they find true love after all. I am told there are a lot of them out there and I imagine in this day and age, a lot of men (not as chivalrous as their predecessors i.e. the knight in shining armor types) might take offense to this approach. I think we all have dreams and aspirations, and truly just want someone to share them with. Some are successful in attaining them easily, while others flail desperately trying to gain some semblance of normalcy so they can know how it feels to give and receive love. Perhaps it is the men who DON’T have the resources a woman wants who are most offended by these women who they call MGMW. It is shallow I agree, to go around seeking another who’s value lies in what that person can give to you rather than seeking someone with whom you to become harmonious as a team, but sometimes when you get down to the nitty gritty of WHY a person wants what he/she wants, there is usually a pretty sound reason behind it. But rarely is that question asked in sincerity, rather an assumption is made and unfortunately, an opportunity might be lost. A misjudgment made.

  1. Unresponsive women

Men continually strive to find ways to please their women. They know that this is the way they can get what they want which is SEX. When the men are giving and the woman isn’t responding, the man feels rejected. I have heard a million times women say, “If I just give in, he will finally leave me alone.” Then they lie there, count, talk about other things, fake an orgasm, and basically just go through the motions. Women who are turned on, hot, desirous and sexy are naturally what a man wants to make love to. I can’t help thinking that the men who have women who are unresponsive, might be boring to her. Having been married twice myself, knowing how dull the same thing is over and over again; I can understand both sexes getting bored with their long-term mates. If you have read all of my articles, you know that I am an advocate for “variety.’ I know for myself, if there is no excitement, no passion, no seduction, I find watching grass grow more stimulating. So, if your woman is unresponsive, try asking her if she is bored, and then get proactive about your lovemaking. Get toys, invite other men, offer different types of turn-ons, maybe go to a swing party or two so that you can find a way to get the juices flowing again. It’s worth doing the effort if you plan on staying with your woman for the duration!!!

Personal note: I GREATLY appreciate all of you who have so diligently taken the time and energy to write such wonderful encouraging emails. Keep up the GREAT lovin’!!! <smile>.
