I don't even like Levi, but goddamn that figure is fine.

And not to quibble headlines, but if he "wants you to sit on his lap", then why has he got his leg crossed?

1. He's not unattractive
2. He's competent. Women love competent men.
3. He's messed up just enough. Women love men who are kinda messed up so they can fix them.
I think. I don't understand women. |
Wow, dude. Just... just wow.

That's OK. Women understand you.

There's an old saying:
Women marry men hoping to change them, but they never do.
Men marry women hoping they never change, but they always do.

Well, yeah, it all was. That was the point. You don't understand "women". You might understand one woman, or two women, maybe a few if you know more really well. But it's incredibly stupid to generalize like that. My reply was trying to get him to consider that. I mean come on, that's like saying (fill in the racial slur) like (fill in the racist stereotype).
This woman, for one, doesn't want a man who needs fixing. When my husband wants to change I support him, but he gets to decide who he is and will be.

I should point out that a lot of guys like Levi too.
And I personally hate the generalizations on this thread as well. Levi is a fictional character in an anime. Being a fan of Levi doesn't mean this is what women look for in a guy in real life. And I don't know why anyone should have to rationalize liking a character.
I think all the characters on Attack on Titan are a bit crazy but that is what makes them fun.

A generalisation is not the same as an iron-clad law of nature. Obviously there will be many exceptions.
Also, preferences for fictional characters are often (perhaps even usually?) different than preferences for picking real spouses.

Haha, didn't think people would take me that seriously
I'm female. Yeah, I know the avatar might cause some confusion, but really, I have girl parts. Is that enought to grant me the right to joke about silly fangirl preferences?
