Your question:

So, do men even like women?

Has an obvious answer, some do.

Some good, nice people are women and some men will like them.

Stereotypes are just that and of course should be ditched. Nobody should be stereotyped or be stereotyping.

How the worlds children are raised, what they are indoctrinated with, that is much deeper than gender roles.

Me, I am cis-het. I want a cis-het partner. I will be more attracted to a woman who is closer to my idea but I am a bit of a realist. I am not perfect and don't expect my partner to be perfect. I am at a place in my life where it is more important that my partner take care of herself than that she wear makeup. It may be a little vain, maybe even a lot, but I would like to think that when we go out that people who see us think we are an attractive couple. I think people should have a little pride, not a lot but really shouldn't we try and be a good version of ourselves.
