How unfortunate for practially every single guy on here.
Silent you!
This is fucking hilarious, pathetic weeaboo's butthurt over the cool guy taking their wimminz away.
I'm a vegetarian >_<
The carnivore guys are those with the rat-race status, wealth and power. After that it seems like second priority for these women is good looks and then lastly personality.
Holy shit, I'm all of the top 3. xD
science guys rank that low? and yet they apparently want guys with money? are they retarded?
Bento guy? He loves lunch?
He makes you lunch.
This of course raises the question of "if" said Otaku-guy be a filthy Rich guy.. perhaps like the one pictured (possible). Would said wenches be on all it for the cash?
I guess I be having hands full when I visit Japan ^^
Here's a brief translation and insight onto what kind of women are into those types.
1. Carnivorous guys- Translation: Controlling, aggressive, possibly abusive.
Women who want this: Weak, insecure, sheepish, and possibly masochistic.
2. Sporty guys- Translation: Douchebag jock.
Women who want this: Vain, popularity and image obsessed women. Interested in the status of having a good looking trophy boyfriend.
3. Bespectacled guys- Translation: Megane guy.
Women who want this: They're interested in this type because they want a smart looking guy (Because if they were smart they'd know not everyone with glasses is smart). They have a megane fetish. Or are possibly a gold digger due to the fact intelligent men tend to have higher paying jobs.
4. Herbivorous guys- Translation: Weaker willed, will go with the flow.
Women who want this: Controlling women who want to impose their will on their boyfriend, possibly sadists. Or if they're innocent, they seek an easy going guy who will be nice to them and listen to them.
5. “Iku-men”- Translation: Nice guy type.
Women who want this: Naive girls who want a nice man that is handsome and they would want to marry. Definitely on the more innocent end of the spectrum.
6. Science guys- Translation: Smart guys.
Women who want this: Women looking for an intelligent person to converse, have fun with, and relate to. Though possibility for gold digger are high here.
7. Sweet-tooth guys- Translation: Cute and innocent type.
Women who want this: Girls who want someone who is friendly and that they can relate to. Wanting someone sensitive and who will treat them well. Usually interested in more light relationships for fun and a good time.
8. Bento guys- Translation: Guy who can cook and do other domestic tasks.
Women who want this: Girls who want to be taken care of and be spoiled a bit.
9. Other guys- Translation unnecessary.
Women who want this: Girls who didn't like any of the categories, couldn't decide what they wanted, or girls who realize it's stupid to decide your boyfriend by a vague stereotypical "type".
10. Otaku guys- Translation unnecessary.
Women who want this type: Female otaku. Or women wanting security because they pretty much know an otaku wouldn't cheat on them or leave them for another women (another 3d woman at least).
Personally I think it's stupid to pick a boyfriend by some vague type. I think I'd want a guy who has similar interests to me, is decently attractive, and someone I can generally relate to and rely on emotionally. So I'd probably vote other or otaku. But then again that might be why I'm single TT^TT
Great job with the translation. I actually feel some moe for you. Haven't felt that in the last decade or so....
Translation to this whole translation thing: I am a butt-hurt otaku so I am trying to find excuses why women don't want me.
Grow up, have a spine, get a decent job so you can improve your lifestyle, stop fapping to 2D representation of women. That's how you get respect from your peers.
Otaku telling otaku on what to do
lulz
Except this "otaku" has a girlfriend, stable job, has a social life, and is being respected by the people who's under him and above him.
Someones trolling ^
@13:51 Who ever said I was a man? :P I'm merely giving my insight onto what I've observed from other girls. I don't think very highly of them when they pick jerks over good guys half the time. Don't get me wrong I don't only despise a large percentage of women, there are a lot of the douchey guys that I can't stand. Sir/ma'am, it's not wise to judge with out knowing the least about me or my lifestyle. You just like to judge people to make yourself feel superior. Next time promptly stfu.
Lol, truth hurts aint it?
WTF! Otaku actually got 381 votes??? I could be wrong but assuming that 1 out of every 10 super hardcore otaku like real women, these 381 votes will make 1 out of every 10 otaku cry tears of joy.
They won't cheat on you... not counting 2d.
well at least there are 10 male options, with women every option is only a variant on the same "bitches"
Where the hell are the 381 women that would date otaku and why haven't I met one yet??
I'm six of those!
Seven if you let me count nine!
I laughed my ass off, the moment I saw the picture for this article. I lol every time.
He's on a gallant and adventurous mission, now, so don't put him down! Goodness gracious, the man's a fighter!
To this day, I want to know so badly what he's LOOKING at. I guess we'll never know.
Or will we?
What the hell. They don't just want us to cook, now they want us to take care of the children too? Women have gone nuts!
I pray to God you won't have a family. Seriously.
...so you think it's not cool if a father actually acts like a father?
Alot of japanese men just work all the time and never have time to play with their kids. I dont know about you, but I think its pretty important for a kid to spend time with both their mother and father. So it's little wonder that the idea of a man that is 'good with kids' has become such a popular idea with Japanese women, since it's something a lot of western people would take for granted.
The definition given was "equal interest". I doubt you see that happening anywhere in the world.
...again, why shouldnt a father have an equal interest in raising his own damn kids? Unless you want so many more generations to grow up all emo and "MY FATHER NEVER LOVED ME!!!1"
Well, if I ever go to Japan I'll be sure to wear my glasses.
I hear a lot of women fall in love with pimps these days.
Don't think you can get anymore carnivorous than that.
Sure I'd date a guy, . . if he were cute like - Hideyoshi.
Hmm...somehow i felt this is valid although the validity of carnivorous guys topped the herbivores are pretty questionable...
Number seven amazed me. Those 977 really need to meet Needles Kane, he will be the last guy they met.
Cool, I fit on more than 1 of those categories, including 1 and 5!
am I the only one surprised that we otakus made it on the list o.O, but am not surprise at number 1....................ladies love them douhebags ha.
Some girls are just into vampire stuff.Proudly wearing 'My boyfriend is a vampire' t-shirt.Poor otakus.
Don't worry guys, this is not really depressing news because:
1) Most women suck
2) Most women are ugly
3) Most women suck
4) Did I mention that women suck?
Conclusion: Who really cares what most women want.
And yes, I suck too.

Apparently it evolutionary genetics or something. The guy who goes around screwing girls and treating them like crap is usually a more successful person and have a better chance of allowing their young to pass on their genes. Or something like that. Confident and assertive people are more likely to take leadership roles I guess; the traits that leads one to being confident though, probably have a lot to do with it as well.
4, 5, 6, 7 yummy
1 <- wtf no, one of my fears is getting raped. And i haven't met real life tsunderes (yummy tsunderes)
2 <- i liked a sporty guy first so maybe
3 <- nah i want my children to have the chance of not using glasses, i use them myself
8 <- whats that o-o
9 <- maybe a funny and charming type
10 <- only if the guy isnt like the one in the pic EKK
Well im not a "normal" woman cuz my first reason for mating in the future is just to have kids (my mother's request), that's why if i don't find the love of my life i will use the services of a sperm bank yay!!! or a male escort but those might have STDs, such a difficult choice
As with most survey data, there may be a (small or large) difference between what _SURVEYED_ women _PUBLICLY CLAIMED_ they want, vs what they _REALLY_ want.
...I fall under five of the above categories. Should I be happy?
carnivorous guy? so someone whom ravages them animalistically when it comes to sex? Is that what one is then bingo! I hit no1 spot :P
LMAO! I'm marrying a #4.
So the NTR problem men experience is due to a genetic mistake huh? Girls turn themselves into objects to attract the carnivores. Then they complain about being treated as such. But they still ask for more in the end.
21st Century Earth is turning into a hell for making lasting healthy relationships.
I got No.4,No.7, No.8
sigh...
By: JELR39
I've got #1 and #3 covered, but so far it's done me no good....
Science-guys are only 6th? Man, bitches just don't know how sexy science is!
Lame list is lame. Although I am surprise that Otaku got in the top ten
There were only 10 choices. learn to read...
now who here hasn't seen that picture before? it's so funny but I'm sure we have all seen it before
Creep-kun~~~~ :D
they forgot to add Rapists
AT least otaku guys received votes....
it shouldn't be in this list :p
I guess I should scream "FOR SCIENCE!!" when in Japan.
Using my crazy scientist coat and my shiny glasses.
Who the fuck is this carnivorous arsehole? I'm gonna beat him up, one on one.
so women like dating playboys and pimps?
As if Otaku care really, they tend to be wrapped up all happy in their own little worlds most of the time why would they want some 3D wench interfering and fucking it up?
they should have just thrown in rich guys option
oh wait, then all the votes would have been for that one....japanese women are gold diggers
lol gold digggers.... love this analogy
Because I assume you know so many.
All the ones I know make their own money to spend.
Sweet Tooth? The serial killer clown?
I love it when women choose "carnivorous men" over "nice guys" and then get cheated on or dumped for a younger girl. You asked for it!
"Carnivorous men"/"Thugs" vs "Nice Guys" is just the pussy beggar dichotomy arisen from feminism polluting society and the emergent female entitlement complexes.
I agree though they deserve what they get for only accepting the same small percentage of guys who have no reason to really see them as anything but easy.
Otaku would be the most loyal.
You would think so, but women don't have the same values as men in sexual selection--and since women have no responsibilities or consequences for their actions in modern society, their sexual selection has regressed to that of the pre-civilization "wild" woman of the plains millions of years ago.
Such women generally don't really care about concepts like honesty and loyalty except when it's a financial obligation to support them on your part, and even then feel no need to stay faithful themselves. They are unabashedly mercenary.
Paternity fraud stats don't lie--Those DNA tests have revealed that 30% of all children being raised aren't fathered by who they think they are, after all. Lotta dudes out there have been suckered into this and many don't even know. This shit is not going to change unless they make DNA tests at birth mandatory and start giving criminal charges for it, and fat chance of either in a feminist society where justice doesn't matter.
Where are you getting 30%? The numbers I found are more like 3%

Still sucks, but not really BITCHES AND WHORES material.
Maybe for those involved in paternity suits the incidence is higher?

http://battlinbog.blog-city.com/paternity_fraud_higher_than_thought_at_male_matters.htm
This shit is scary. There can be no real educated guesses on how the rate may be lower for the whole of society, really. That's all just hearsay and likely will be tainted with the undeserved image of "saints" which women have in the mainstream orthodoxy. Pretty much all of the raw results data so far points toward 25-30% figure. You can google for many more. Funny thing is any news articles about this usually try to play the mother off as a victim. A common metanarrative in our feminized society. A deceitful bitch is a "victim."
You have to be a fucking moron to not get a test today. No matter how much a woman protests (you definitely need to then), or says "it looks just like you". Ever seen the Maury show? It's a trashy show with a demographic mostly of women who would do something like this but it's shocking to see how many times "it looks like you" is disproven. This is all despite the fact that women hold all of the good contraceptives and all of the reproductive rights. They have total control over the whole process and if the low chance they get pregnant occurs, they can still abort.
But a lot of them lie about using birth control to get pregnant and trap men.

Maybe Dr. Dre was right in his hit song "Bitches ain't shit."
Or maybe you're just a fag. HEYOOO
WTF are you talking about?
Someone feeling snubbed by women lately?
@Shuubi I didn't understand what Fatalistic said that way. I would see that he talks about a type of woman who just don't care about fidelity, in one way or another. I don't see him saying that women are the ones cheating the most.
And the women you know are your friends, or friends of your friends and thus most probably share your values or at least your culture. It can't count as a reliable poll.
@Fatalistic
Talking about poll, I would like to know where those paternity fraud stats comes from if possible?
wtfamireading.jpg
Ah yes, the woman is always the unfaithful one. Because I have never known a man to cheat on a woman ever.
...except more times than I can count. Sigh.
Where i come from, buddy, women are the loyal ones. There are disloyal hoes as well, but the men outnumber them by far.
Don't sweat it Fatalistic. Can't expect everyone to have an interest in evolutionary biology. Just let them figure it out the hard way.
Ah yes, the ad hominem. Excellent, Anonymous 6:38. Is a very nice.
lol
"no responsibilities or consequences in the modern society"
Like men do? birth control can fail, condoms can fail. we can get STDs like you all AND we can get pregnant. as i recall there are a LOT of single mothers in the world as well, but i guess thats neither consequence or responsibility huh? and dont be so quick to assume that 'they deserved' to be a single mom either. THEY could've been the loyal one and stuck it out with some broke loser who walked out on her cuz he 'couldnt handle it'.
also, dont speak as if men have some better standards for sexual selection as according to theories you all only pick those who look a certain way, young and perky. 8D if not you all would go for those fat women with low self esteem problems, rather than just fapping to asian fetishes.
Here are some facts for you.
Men have 1 form of non-permanent birth control. Condoms. They have a decently high failure rate compared to the better female options.
Women have over a dozen forms of non-permanent birth control. Pills, patches, plenty of stuff that works much better than a condom.
After conception has occurred, men have nothing.
Women have:
- Morning after pill.
- Abortion.
- Adoption.
These are her options and hers alone. If she so chooses, even if the man doesn't wish to have it, she can have it and hold him financially responsible. Her choice the whole way. The man has no reproductive rights.
Or she can just name some random guy with money that isn't the father and hope he doesn't challenge paternity until the fucked up statutes of limitation of the broken law on what is a type of FRAUD runs out and he's stuck with the bill anyway.
Big Daddy Government will also fund her in her irresponsible behavior, as will the court system via redistributing men's wealth to her as I've already said.
There is literally no responsibility, accountability or consequence to a woman being irresponsible. The system is supporting it. Hence the sexual selection of a wild human, the natural "instinct" if you will, takes hold. This doesn't really work in civilization (an unnatural construct) and I'm sure a time will come soon when the burden it places on governments and businesses and men will cause some sort of vital system on which this behavior is being funded by to collapse.
Isn't that her own problem that she couldn't find a decent guy? Same goes for men. If a person doesn't find a decent opposite gender for themselves they're either screwed or they can try bring that person in shape (chances low probably) and if they give up then it's their loss. No one can be held responsible for your actions no matter what. Love struck? Well that's just your stupidity for not trying to look out of the frame and see how things really are. Check for yourself whether the person in question is really decent or just a shithead. The guy/girl might be a total piece of shit but it's you who's at fault for falling for the charm. And i'm not talking about you personally i'm talking about people who have been left
[birth control can fail, condoms can fail.]
1. Get an abortion.
2. Don't have sex with men who won't commit in the event of an unplanned pregnancy. Choose Mr. Reliable over Snake the biker or Phil the drug dealer.
[we can get STDs]
That's why you don't sleep with popular men who sleep with lots of other women. Choose Mr. Reliable over Judd the stud.
[and dont be so quick to assume that 'they deserved' to be a single mom either.]
If a woman sleeps with a man who has no interest in raising children, then don't expect him to stick around. Don't sleep with such men in the first place. Marry a reliable man and have children the traditional way.
[also, dont speak as if men have some better standards for sexual selection as according to theories you all only pick those who look a certain way, young and perky.]
Men don't have better standards than women. Men and women both have different standards. Men want young, healthy fertile women.
Women want powerful, dominant high-status men.
[if not you all would go for those fat women with low self esteem problems, rather than just fapping to asian fetishes.]
Not sure what you mean here. If not for what?
I believe that when Fatalistic said, "no responsibilities or consequences for their actions in modern society" he meant that a woman can marry a man, bear the children of a different man, divorce the husband, keep the children, house, monetary accounts and receive child support and alimony from the ex-husband.
In more saner times, the woman would have been shamed rather than rewarded.
Hence, women are able to commit heinous acts while reaping the rewards.
Does foreign normal guy fit in this categories anyhow ?
I would think between 1 and 2 if you just approach them for casual sex and are actually physically attractive yourself, yeah. Since they're mostly racists I wouldn't count on anything longterm.
That's fine. They probably don't want to marry a foreign scam but we don't want the to want a marriage from us ether.
We get to feel a nice Asian tight pussy, they get to experience a dick they can actually feel filling them up and everyone is happy.
You mean pasty white wapanese weaboo guy?
Pasty white is a bonus in Japan.
I won't comment on the other part.
And what exactly are the traits of a "carnivorous" man? Because I don't think they are the direct opposite of the herbivorous ones.
They pretty much are. Men who approach women and who are assertive about what they want from women, sexually.
But of course this isn't just any man who's has this type of personality. They also have to meet the mile-long checklist of any modern, feminist-indoctrinated, "independant" grrl and her burgeoning entitlement complex. At least outwardly and financially.
I'm the original anon:
Anyway, aren't the traits of a carnivorous man also:
5. He’s bothersome
6. He’s restrictive
7. He’s forgetful
8. He’s got a sharp tongue
9. He’s a narcissist
10. His timekeeping is loose
and possibly
3. His cooking is bad
These are all traits from the "top traits that would turn you off a guy" article.
They may be those things to YOU, but I think they mean guys that do not feel uncomfortable to talk to women and can take the lead in any sort of situation, Americans would call this as having "Game".
A lot of you just think Dating as a means to an end of having Sex, but dating is a lot more than that and courtship is almost an art, especially to women. Dating may lead to sex, but sex should be the last thing on your mind when you begin. Things work out naturally.
Also known as... "Sex Fanatics"?
Japan sure has a funny way with words.
It's less about honesty and more about being a pervert, plain and simple.
How does being honest about sexual desires make you a "sex fanatic." I know we live in cultures that almost universally seem to deny and shame the biological fact of why we're even here on this rock in the first place and all, but these people are just being honest about those desires. It's normal, man.
wtf? Are you calling your own parents perverts? Because that was how you came into this world, unless you are Jesus.
Or they could also want the Old Spice guy, but... the japanese equivalent, you know... non existant. (yay stereothypes)
