About This Quote
It’s because we live in a beauty-obsessed society where the most important thing a woman can do is make herself attractive to men. This is a quote that not only makes the fact that men are attracted to women who look beautiful more obvious, but also brings up some interesting points on why we think we need to look good. It is true that we live in a society where we need to look attractive and pretty to attract and keep a man, but it is also true that the first reason we need to do this stems from our own needs. We are human beings and as such, we need certain things from our partners or friends.
If they are not attractive or don’t meet all our social needs, then they will be out of the picture very quickly. In order for us to find someone who is attractive and meets all our needs, we have to make ourselves attractive first. At least, if you want a man to see you as attractive.
