Women come in all shapes and sizes and probably have different types of preferences... Personally, being a straightforward person, myself, I prefer people to be straightforward, too.. Not "rude", mind you! Just direct and real. Many people don't seem to know the difference between direct and rude.. don't be one of them.

Can we stop this nonsense already with questions? I mean can we please stop the does {insert group of people} like something. You could change this question to be do you like straight forward and assertive romantic partners Yes, yes I do.

Personal preferences can vary greatly, and it is not possible to make a generalized statement about all women's preferences. I think it's important to be true to oneself and communicate in a way that feels natural and comfortable, rather than trying to fit into a certain mold!

I would say it depends on what a person would describe as straightforward and assertive. Some men take that and use it as an excuse for being disrespectful and crossing boundaries that should never be crossed.

2y

Ofcourse

2y

Each person has their own desires and wishes for a different approach, so… seems kinda pointless to think of this.

2y

I don't know anymore 😂

The preference for straightforward and assertive men is a very personal thing. Some women value directness and self confidence, while others look for different qualities. While compatibility is an important factor, it's also possible to build a strong relationship with someone who has a distinct personality. Finding someone you can be yourself with and build a connection based on mutual respect, open communication, and the ability to negotiate like adults is key to long term success. Diversity in relationships can enrich our lives and help us grow as people. Well that's my humble opinion xD

2y

Yes. Just be real and honest. No one likes an axxhole.

2y

Yes !!! Contrary to their beliefs, we don't carry a Magic ball in our purse to try and decifer their behavior or their conversation. Just f*$@ing say it

Hm ... I don't know what other women like... I think everyone is different and there's not "that" answer for all of us. And to be honest...there are other Character traits, which I value way more and which are important to me. If he's straight forward and assertive or not isn't something, why I choose someone as a partner. Sending love and hugs to you all 🫶🏻🤗🌻

It depends on the women. I appreciate straightforwardness long as it's genuine and not rude.

2y

Yeahhh

2y

Depends on the woman but I definitely do because now a day so many people can be taken the wrong way. So instead of accidentally guessing wrong, I like a guy being straightforward.

2y

Yes, but also no. Some people really like it when ya don't beat around the bush, and just say what you want to say. Other people like it when ya show some tact/play it cool. My advice is ~ don't try to be one thing over the other ~ just let it be as you are. Also, being assertive has many flavors, too. There's the assertiveness of more aggressive personalities, and there's the assertiveness of softer personalities. Neither of these is the correct or incorrect approach ~ but it will be correct or incorrect to someone. It's another question with so much nuance that the answers you get are pretty much worthless towards coming to a firm conclusion; a whole lot of "it depends".

Straightforwardness saves everyone's time but surely you should be polite

2y

.... I won't lie... yes...

2y

Straight forward - yeah Assertive - not so much

2y

You're literally on an app that will tell you what personalities like in this regard. It comes down to people, not gender.

2y

Noone likes straightforward and assertive anyone. They say they do but aren't usually mature enough to know they don't. I've witnessed this as an assertive and straightforward person.

2y

First of all, women are not a monolith. Different women can prefer different things depending on their culture, environment, and the way they were raised. That being said, I personally do prefer a person being a little straight forward and assertive but not rude about it. Say what they need to say I'm a kind and considerate way.

2y

Depends on the woman

2y

In a respectful way, yeah it’s nice for a change. Not rude and aggressive, but someone being straightforward and communicating their feelings is nice.

2y

I don’t know bout other woman’s, but me i’m not truly into only that; as an infj it can be “brutal” iykyk. lols.. but we always “put it away” when we bias..duhh. What i know i like men with sense of humor “truly”..nothing can compare to someone that can always make you laugh on top of others “ingredients”
