It really depends on the kind of woman.

Not all women are the same, so how can there be the "best" type?
...so many factors...

The best type for man is INTJ, just kidding(really don't know) I was married to a woman who tested ISTF.
She was pretty good, and I realize now we made a good match.
Of course two INTJS might not be bad either.

What does "best" mean in this context? If you're talking about the exciting, casanova, charmer types, then I'd have to go with an SP, probably an extraverted one, but a sociable introvert might be even better.
If you think "best" implies the one that's a reliable family man, then an SJ would be my guess.
If "best" implies the kind of person you'd have the strongest connection to, then I'll go with an NF, probably of the introverted strain.
And of course, if you're talking about the pure, objective best, then it has to be an INTJ. ;)

I meant the type that most women get generally attracted for. AKA "naturals" with women. Those who can naturally get most women attracted to them.

All womem want is an INTJ partner, of course! Why did you even asked that obvious question?
Now being serious, there's no "best type" with womem, different womem like different types.

Ah come on, as if the odds are the same for the 16 MBTI types...
I'm talking about numbers here then, there are types that can attract the biggest amount of women. Also, these types can adapt (by picking how different women are and adapting) more easily to fit what most women want.
As i said before, i think that the ESTP is one of them. I was just curious to see you guys' opinion but the thread didn't go as i expected it to.

I assume you mean attracting women overall; I would tend to agree but mostly with other S types. Since the majority of women are Sensors, I think you're right.
Obviously this is an average, as I could see particularly good looking ISTJs for example pulling more women than a particularly bad looking ESTP. ESTPs tend to be the most charming and magnetic of the personality types, including gaining friendships of the same gender as well.

I'm glad you finally broke down and confessed. I've noticed you eyeballing my posts as if they were only a piece of meat. I'm not a sausage with feet. I have feelings too you know! Btw, please refer to this post (To view links or images in this forum your post count must be 2 or greater. You currently have 0 posts.).

I agree, with ESTP, but also add ENTP. Once, I read a very interesting article about correlation between sensation seekers /+ risk takers and sexual partners they had had. The source, of this article, is a mystery to me, but I do have some remnants:
Males with a sensation-seeking personality trait are generally viewed as more attractive to females.
Quote:
"A personality trait known as sensation seeking is defined as "the seeking of varied, novel, complex, and intense sensations and experiences and the willingness to take physical, social, legal, and financial risks for the sake of such experience".
Sensation seeking includes risk-taking, which typically satisfies the high sensation seeking individual's desire for novel and intense experiences
Quote:
"Risk-taking is not the main point of sensation-seeking behavior; it is merely the price such people pay
for certain kinds of activities that satisfy their need for novelty, change and excitement. In fact, many
of the things that high sensation-seekers do are not at all risky. They enjoy high-intensity rock music,
view sex and horror films, travel to exotic places, and party without drugs.
Sensation-seeking can also extend to the physical, involving unusual or extreme sports such as skydiving,
hang gliding, scuba diving, auto racing, rock climbing and whitewater kayaking. An interest in participating
in such sports describes one subcategory of sensation-seeking: thrill-and adventure-seeking."
You'll notice that sensation-seeking is NOT the same as taking stupid risks. Women are not attracted to stupid risks.
Sensation-seekers as a whole have more sex parters - a virtue of their need for varied, novel, complex,
and intense sensations and experiences. However, the by-product risk that they accept is an increased
chance of contracting STDs and getting a woman pregnant.
* Sensations-seekers tend to have more interesting and exciting experiences.
* Studies have shown that a trait of successful leaders and entrepreneurs is risk-taking.
* "Women view risk-takers as someone who is likely to protect them and provide for them."
* Risk takers tend to strive for high-status positions - any high status position takes a certain amount of risk taking to reach.
* Alpha males are risk takers. In evolutionary terms, to become the alpha male took immense risks - you had to risk death or expulsion from the tribe if you took on the current alpha male and lost.
There is a dark side to risk-taking personalities though:
Quote:
Dr. Farley divides risk takers into Type T positives -- inventors, entrepreneurs, explorers --
and Type T negatives -- compulsive gamblers, criminals, people who engage in unsafe sex.
In his view, a multimillion dollar athlete's decision not to wear a helmet is veering into the T negative column.
[MrEsquire's Note: you may recognize this example. Ben Roethlisberger (Super Bowl winning quarterback)
was involved in a serious motorcyle accident this past summer. He was not wearing a helmet and had an
expired learner's motorcycle permit.
Often a risk taker has both elements to his personality. Albert Einstein took brilliant risks with his thinking,
he said, but on the negative side, had illicit affairs. The late John Belushi was a gifted improvisational comedian,
a risky form of comedy, but he abused drugs, a risk that killed him.
Sensation-seeking/risk-taking is a spectrum. People don't simply fall into the groups: 1) risk-taker, or 2)
averse to risk; there is a wide-range that fall between those two values. Typically, those at the far end of
the risk-taker side of values embody risk-taking as a personality trait and are likely to take highly dangerous
risks and possess a potentially addictive personality.
God, I hope Ishida is a woman.

See, that's the thing- ENTPs have an ability to take care of themselves and introspect, something women appreciate in men (kill me if I get a husband I call my "3rd child"). They are very sharp and insightful, can come up with killer comebacks, poke and tease, hold their end of an intellectual argument (actually, they usually win), on top of having the SP charm. So I'd think they are more attractive then ESTPs to women.

I'm a girl and mostly date girls. The types I've usually dated are ESFJs, ENTPs, and a couple socially well rounded ISFJs. Guys, I'm usually drawn to more introverted types. I've dated an INTJ and an INTP.

Well, CLEARLY this means that the best type of man with women is the type that has more X chromosomes, therefore a woman is the best type! XD

I remember there being a variation of triple X syndrome which involves four X chromosomes, actually. So it must be a very rare kind of woman Ishida's pursuing. :P

Based on what I see around me, definitely ESTP. I don't know any confirmed ENTPs, but perhaps the difference lies in NT coldness and abstraction?

I don't know whether I know other ENTPs IRL, but the general descriptions of ENTPs are of charm and such. Coldness and abstraction aren't necessarily apparent because ENTPs generally like people and get along well with them, according to the descriptions.
That's the case for me. I feel kind of split at times, because I'm cold and abstract at the same time that I feel good will toward people. I don't know whether it's common for ENTPs, but both those things happen at the same time for me internally. I'm aware of both, and I chose how to act based on what I'd consider appropriate for the situation -- whether a mix of logic and emotion, or just logic. Even when I'm acting emotionally, my logic is aware of it, because I run all my choices, responses, etc., through my logic before I act. ... I think that might be why some ENTPs are considered manipulative: We know what we're doing. ... But I think not being manipulative along those lines would be impossible for me, because I'm hardwired to think and know how to get along with people. Personally, I just don't exploit them. But IMO that relates to self-esteem, self-confidence and values.
That's not to say that I think ENTPs are necessarily better with women (or men). On that topic, I don't think it's necessary to decide. But I think an ENTP who wanted to get a lot of women (or men) would have little trouble doing it, because not only could he / she figure out how, he / she could easily apply it.

I´m an INTJ and I suffered from social phobia and low self-esteem, after years in therapy and social training I can honestly say I am very good at attracting women. I have dated dozens of attractive(and not so attractive lol) women. And even sensors wonder how I do it. As INTJs we are definetly not naturals but as with almost everything else we can become experts if we are really interested and motivated. I learnt in an INTJ way too by reading. Yes it works haha, just choose your books wisely.
So summing it up INTJ-not naturals but I believe we can become the best at attracting women.

I'd agree with most people and say ESTP and ENTP. Or maybe they just charm me. I know people from both types personally and can say that they're the type, if I get to choose, I'm likely to be in a relationship with.

ESTP i assume? What do you think and why?
Is it personal preference? I could only voice my own preference in different situations.
I wish I could have 3 different women at least:
1. Girl friend, it is just temporary (sex appeal only, don't care what type! We just have fun!)
2. Wife or wives, it is supposed to be permanent (ideally match my type XNTX because we live together, we don't want a lot of conflict)
3. Best female friends, it is priceless (Must match my type and experience so we can talk!).
3 is the most difficult to find because 1 and 2 could buy (Go to 3rd world is easy way to get 1 and 2 for example) but it cannot not buy a real friend!

I'm an INTJ, and my husband is an ISTJ (I think). He drives me nuts with his inflexibility and inability to think outside the box. -Do what you're supposed to no matter how much you hate it-. Gets my blood pressure up just thinking about it. But he is the most predictable and dependable person in the world.
I'd go for an INTJ, or I'd just stay on my island all alone (no partner) with my 3 INTJ children--girls. All other personality types could be my servants.
