I used to think romance was a social construct, but I'm changing my view. Here's how I actually think it works

Attraction (i personally don't use the split attraction model because I experience both every time) occurs when I meet someone and they have personality traits and appearance I like

This desire makes me want to be around them, get their attention, and talk to them more

Some of what people describe as romance- like wanting to be around the person or always thinking about them, is just the biological symptoms of attraction

Yet the ways we express this and shape our relationships is shaped by social expectations for how we should act. Like the ideas of marriage, big romantic gestures, maybe even monogamy. Rings? Flowers? Dates? These things are made up.

It's like gender. Something we intrinsically feel which has been drastically shaped by society's norms.

Me tryna be romantic like...

I can understand the hype about the "wiggle your butt against him while he's spooning you to make him hard" thing now. I spoon my partner and feel his body against me and it makes me go absolutely feral

What is the most attractive physical trait in a man (not including personality, even though that's a factor, just pick one based on what he looks like)

If something else or something more specific add it in the tags

And ofc choose the parts that apply to the attractive men in your life, if someone you like doesnt have some of these you can still vote on the poll!
