No, cockiness and arrogance are a big turn off for me. I do like the guys who are unintentionally masculine though :)
-
Confident? Yes. Cocky, alpha-male? No, total turn-off for me. Masculinity is good and confidence is incredibly attractive. But I'm not a bird. Strutting just makes me laugh.
-
I love a confident man, sometimes a little cocky.
-
Confident? Yes. Cocky.. also yes, if he can back it up. I don't think there's anything wrong with being cocky if you really are that good.
-
Actually, yes. Very attractive. :D
-
oh yes!!
-
So much thats the one I married.
-
Not particularly. Confident is fine, but cocky can be obnoxious.
-
cocky is too close to arrogance for me. confidence is great but anything beyond just irritates the hell out of me. and i don't do alpha male status. i can make up my own mind and i'm not the submissive type. being raised by mainly women in my life didn't make it easy to be that way.
-
no not at all
-
My husband is confident and that is one of the things that first attracted me to him. Cocky men can keep on walking.
-
Maybe for fifteen minutes.
-
what women say they want and what they actually want is two different things. If done correctly, cocky is good, and confident is given.
-
Yes I do, as long as these traits coincide with intelligence. My fiance fits this criteria, but he has plenty reason to :P
-
i detest them, i like the shy intellectualise with a witty and dry sense of humor that is crass and taboo
-
Confident, cocky, and arrogant can/do turn me on...Hey they've gotta keep up with me (lol)
-
Confident, sure. Cocky/arrogant, **** no. The difference is that a confident man allows the input of others' feelings and an arrogant one disregards them. Arrogant people make me want to run in the opposite direction.
-
Confidence and cocky don't necessarily go together...I'll take confident.
-
I like them to have a sarcastic wit, but not too cocky. If you're not careful, you get the type who hates everybody and everything...
-
Yes. It is one cause of my downfall.
-
Yes, as long as the cocky alpha-male part doesn't become disrespectful. I still want to be treated like a princess. He's gotta earn the right to be cocky!
-
i find confidence attractive, but a cocky man is just annoying.
-
confidence: attractive cocky: annoying!
-
I don't like cockiness at all.
-
I'm more into the shy types myself. With a sardonic sense of humor. I tend to become best friends or fast lovers with the confident/cocky dynamo, because I find them too immature to have a real relationship with. They're fun for some things, but they'd be too embarrassing/frustrating to be with for long.
-
Those types tend to be good looking, so yes I usually find them attractive. Certainly not dating material though!
-
Yes confident, because it seems to compensate the many insecurities that females have.. But a cocky guy?? Now why would one want that. I wouldn't be attracted to a guy who spent more time making himself feel special as opposed to me
-
Confident? Definitely. Cocky? Hm...maybe. Alpha-male? Not a chance. The guy could be charming, fit, confident, with tons of charisma. But if he's the alpha-male type, he's a turn-off. I'm not bein anyone's slave!
-
Alpha-male does not mean cocky male. I am referred to as an alpha-male by those who know me personally and I am also referred to as an intellectual by many. An alpha-male will take the lead with confidence and protect his woman if and when need be, he will not share his girlfriend or wife with another man. An alpha is exclusive in his breading rights and is often out spoken regardless of the group interpretation. An alpha-male may be silent when silence is necessary, though he may not be liked by those who are not on his level or radar out of jealousy for not being so but, he is respected by all who encounter him. For better understanding as to who is writing this I am a small arms security instructor, a poet, massage therapist, father and loyal husband. These traits are by no means all that I am or all that I am interested in but, I feel these are enough to illustrate the multiple facets of one alpha male.
-
Confidence is always attractive.Cockiness and "Alpha male" don't go together.
-
No
-
Absolutely not! I like a man with a great sense of humor and a big heart.
-
Confident I like. I always enjoy a "Cock-y" man, doesn't every woman?
-
No way I'm sorry but cocky people bother me and most girls. Who lieks people who are stuck-up and think they're all that? I like the smart, nice, good-looking guys
-
i don't tend to find cocky men attractive. for me, i'm interested in men who don't need to show off all the time or be the center of attention.
-
the difference between arrogance and confidence is wether or not the person describing it thinks it is a good thing.wether or not they think they like cocky guys they go for them.
-
Confidence is attractive. Cockiness is not. Being an alpha-female, I'm definitely attracted to alpha-males.
-
No not really. To me, cocky guys aren't really alpha at all.
-
Confident yes, cocky is just selfish! Total turn off. Got have a little humor. :)
-
Confident, yes. Cocky, no.
-
Confident is always a plus, but I can't really stand guys that are cocky, it is a turn off!
-
no i hate them, they are such ass holes and they usually only want one thing. i prefer a guy who is cofident but not the alpha-male type.
-
I love a strong and confident man. Cocky is a little too much for me...unless by cocky you mean well endowed! :-)
-
No, cocky alpha male types just annoy me. ;-)
-
I always felt that cocky guys were not confident at all and needed to be cocky to try and make themselves and others think they are confident. Confidence is a definite plus along with a great sense of humour and intelligence. Cockiness is simply that, cockiness and has nothing to recommend it.
-
there's a point to cockiness, and no they can be rude and do what they want to. Also they end up being the ones to cheat cause they think their poo don't stink.
-
No, just rude and obnoxious.
