Why do guys try to prove their masculinity when girls come around?

When i do that girls just say im adorable 😂😂😂

Then they say i have a nice face for women's make up! 😮😁😂😂

The same reason we show our cleavage , legs and ass.

probably insecure of themselves

Overconfidence?

Honestly a real man lets the "wannabe's" try to prove, while the real man already is....and doesnt need to do anything.

It’s kinda obvious really. It’s what they’re programmed to do. It’s like us and pumpkin spice.

omg yes lol

i often wondered if there were no men on the planet, would women wear makeup?

Because of your profile picture.

It's on purpose. Except when it isn't

It’s usually down to insecurity and lack of maturity.

Ego. 😄

These “guys” you mention sound very insecure.

I certainly did that when I was an athletic teenager. I stopped after I married and no longer tried to catch a woman's attention.

It's true, this seems to be trend now a days, but a decent and sensible guy would never do that

very much instinctual. The one's that are obvious about it are the ones that have the most issues

What would you prefer? I could dress like a Walmart shopper…

It's part of the instinctive mating ritual humans have programmed into their genes.

It's basically due to the gender divide and rule, that starts from childhood where each have their own world and lifestyle. So many activities also are exclusive to gender like girlish and boyish..

So they are not used to girls amidst or lack experience in approaching a girl appearing all of a sudden.

But it's really not masculinity or machoism , but just pulling up together from casual to conscious state. Also most girls are well dressed while guys are casual..

Yes of course, that is our instinct.

yes for thousands of years testosterone drives males to attract and fight to secure their mate

Happens all through the animal kingdom

Probably because it would be too weird trying when other guys come around. 🤭

It's primitive and instinctual—their breeding impulse. Females tend to choose the most robust and appealing male among all mammalian and aviary species in nature. Humans are no different, and males instinctively know this. So they show off for us, and we wear tight clothes and makeup and do our hair for them—because we like them to want us, too.

I'm too old to worry about that.
I just try to be myself.

Pretty much explains most of world history

Back it was pretending to be a boi it never did this, it doesn't get Men....

so they can be seen and noticed

Stop saying ALL guys do that!!
I'm a guy & I do not

A lot of it is insecurity.

Dont feel the need too do all that lol

I suspect it is kind of like the way women dress to get attention from men. Most often strangers.

To impress

What does that mean? Like if a girl came over i would go outside and chop wood?

🤏

Because womens gravitate to the alpha..

*caveman noises*

I think it’s just how they’re made. Probably very primal. Sometimes sexy when they aren’t too assy about it.

Reptile brain response. The lower the IQ the more they'll respond like that.

It's teen male behavior...fueled by testosterone.

monkey brain monkeying!

Bahaha I don't at all

Peacock style.

There dormant state is a loser so they have to compensate to get attention.

Maybe it's a reaction to what you have to prove

Not all feel the need to make such displays…

Overcompensating for something most likely
