Libra: The Male

The Libra male is blessed with a lazy charm and is often attractive without being aware of it. There is no doubt that he has taste, is instinctively fastidious and has probably chosen one of the less ordinary careers...perhaps in the area of the Arts, for example. Although he can be balanced on the surface, he is swayed by indecision for a great proportion of his life. He is prone to evade showdowns about most things, if at all possible, and has an aversion to serious quarrels. That having been said, he is quite likely to cultivate a non-serious argument regarding emotional matters in order to simply relieve tension. This man's greatest desire is a partner who has a sweet nature and who is not difficult to get along with. He makes for a gentle and courteous mate...but one with something of a roving eye. Inclined to be rather indolent and reluctant to deal with main issues, this man has a tendency to drift, taking the course that life's currents determine for him, rather than "paddle his own canoe." Always highly intelligent, the Libra male is a student of human nature. He is fond of a joke and able to laugh uproariously at the wisecracks of others. Above all, this man enjoys fun. Secretly, he is only too conscious of life's tragedies and well aware of the human predicament, but is not one to adopt lost causes or get on a personal soap-box to air his views. In essence, the Libra male will never become a bore. It is unfortunate that the man governed by Libra often seems to initially give a bad impression of himself, but once a person gets to know him, it soon becomes apparent that he is capable of being a very rare individual indeed...a good friend.

With regard to long-term relationships, the Libra man is not always easy to please. The sameness of domesticity is not to his liking, but he is a very passionate soul and a respecter of tradition. Hence, a serious commitment is the reasonable result...and the male governed by Libra is indeed a reasonable individual. In fact, he is a born judge and no other Zodiac Sign can bring order to life with so much wisdom. His superior ability to guide the destiny of his home is one of this man's greatest virtues and he will provide well for his family. To the male ruled by Libra, love is a high art. The passions here are overwhelming and this man will rise to magnificent heights in the expressions of his romantic nature. On occasion, he may be tempted to seek an amorous liaison outside the home, but it is usually nothing more than his variety of expression and bears no negative reflection upon his partner. The man governed by Libra rarely seeks a separation from his chosen mate unless the conditions of his life become non-adjustable. He has an instinctive distrust of the untried and will employ all his judiciary abilities to guide the domestic routine in satisfaction of his fastidious taste.

Thanks for that. That should clear a few things up for people.

Heart Cakes:

Lol! Wish I could take credit for them but they are not mines. I am however a seldom contributor to the "Ants" forum section of this board. I am still compiling my recent stuff for the next contribution. Love your piece though; very abstract and modern. Love the movement on it; the eye just follows the curves all around. Why don't you add it in the "Ants" forum?

LOL! And well I can't speak for the rest of the Libra males but according to the sextrology... Nah! Libras are quite "picky" when it comes to choosing a female. They usually go for the more "classical" beauties; i.e. Tall, slim, slender yet not too much... still have curves on em and have a more refined and Angular face rather then outright "cute" (but there are exceptions.) More impotantly, she has to true to her sex but at the same time has a more "masculine" and aggressive edge over her sisters Lol!

Best examples I can think of are personalities like Catherine Zeta Jones, Lexa Doig, Holly Marie Combs, Aishwarya Rai, Rebecca Romijn, Sophie Marceau, oh and DEFIANTELY my girlfriend *whsitles* but that would be a bit too biased Lol!

So ,when I read that link and your comments Xodian, about Libras being choosy, I found that very difficult to believe.

Other Libra males have been my friends or business associates, and I have always been one of the boys with them, and that was more comfortable than being persued romantically by one because... well, they just seem hard to believe. They sound as if they have rehearsed their lines.

That one once told me that he saw my soul or something like that and i almost gagged from shock that he actually pulled a line like that.

And also... As I said before, Librans are cryptic in a sense that I personally never know what makes them tick because at one moment, they are all man, the next they are enjoying being submissive; or at one hand they are sweet and deep, then at the next they are being shallow.

My idea of a headache at times. LOL...

Male gigolos!!

But, now I almost feel bad... okay i do feel bad because i put him through KGB interrogations and the poor guy ran away, and we got along so well... It is a pity because I will miss our arbitrary conversations and non-politically correct view on life. We laughed a lot.

And... Libra guys are not too punctual, are they?

Well, that is an unfair question because if you were to read up on the Virgo woman (me), you would walk away misinformed because I am seldom like a Virgo. I think my Virgo Sun and Venus kick in when I am in work mode. otherwise I am a Scorpio or Cancer.

It is as if we women look for Prince charming, and he arrives in the body of a Libra, but when he starts sweeping us off our feet, we just think that we are being conned because, 'c'mon... that CAN"T be real. It's too charming." you say. "There must be some ulterior motive."

Well, that's what I think. Poor guy probably thinks I am bad-news now.

Having seen your photo, I won't deny that you are an attractive man - just not for me :P

I actually PREFER long-haired men Mmmmph........................................................ Okay, I'm back. So, I suppose it's all just in the facial features and expressions for me. Unfortunately, I do stand my ground and do think that every Libra man I have ever met (which happens to be a lot, otherwise I wouldn't have brought it up) has too feminine of features for my taste. However, they've all been very sweet men. I love them as friends and relatives

LOL! Funny you mentioned gigolos...

Libran male is very attractive to women-more gigolos are born under this sign than any other

Actually I would recommend the same link to Geminilover as well Lol! (though personally, its TOO general for my taste. I personally love sports and stamina... Well, that I personally can't comment on Lol! My girlfriend needs to comment on that.)

But you have to realise that even though a Libra male comes off all charming and willing, it might not be a sign that he wants a relationship. And that from my experience anyway, ends up being a Libra's Achillies' heel when it comes to Romance. Its kinda hard to decipher sometimes as to if he is getting seriously involved or not. As you said:

A good tell-a-tale sign usually is that he might cut down on his usual activites to make time for the "couple" so to speak Lol!

Well I can't say much about other Libras but I hate being late and I avoid being late at the best of my abilities.

Vindictive? Lol! That again is getting on a more personal scale. I don't take revenge; I want Justice. But generally... No.

LC:

Hey, no worries . We all have our tastes right? Lol! Though you have to realise that not all Libras come off so... Androgymous. I actually have to recommend a recent movie for you. Two of my fav. Libra stars are in it and they play quite the unruly couple Lol!

Its called shoot'em up. And it stars Clive Owens (One cool Libra) as the Mysterious trigger happy Mr. Smith and Monica Belluci (Un Libra molto calda LOL!) as a very streetsmart and witty prostitute.

Feminine?!

No waaay!!! Really? I think he is so hot!

I dunno... if that's feminine for you, I think we better start posting pics of cavemen in order for you to approve. LOL...

Matt Damon is a Libra. *blushes* I always thought he was an Aries.

NORMALLY (*blushes again*), I prefer:

Mr. Aries

and...


Mr. Gemini

Actually I actually am a big fan of the Jason Bourne series. He was amazing as Jason Bourne.

Hokey smokes! Clive Owens?! Feminine?!

Gosh LibraChickety. I gotta say, I really would like your opinion on The following Libras LOL! :

Viggo Mortensen:

Brandon Routh:

Will Smith:

And the pretty boy himself Lol! Zac Efron:

Omg, Xodian, that last one looks like a woman! Nah, not one of those men do ANYTHING for me.

:P

CLIVE is by far more masculine than these men!

The link was hilarious and actually close to the money.

I actually always thought Johnny Depp was a Scorpio. He's so mysterious and has those intense eyes.

posted January 06, 2008 12:56 PM            

I think I am starting to understand something. It is not about masculinity or femininity. I think for you it is style, and the more "stylish" a person is, the less attractive they are, and the more rugged a man is, the sexier they are??? Just trying to make sense of Clive Owen here.

LOL...

If Clive Owen was more Bohemian, would he have been more attractive?

posted January 06, 2008 01:00 PM            

Glad you liked it. Its more... "in your face" outlook on a Libra demenour. Not entirely true for the whole Libra male kind but kinda hit general points.

Librachickety:

Yeah I gotta say I am with AG on this one. I mean Johnny Depp has made his entire film career on playing characters that defy the "traditional" meaning of masculinity.

I mean lets count em down:

- Edward scissor hands.
- Sweeny Todd.
- Captain Jack Sparrow.
- Tim Burton's version of Ichabod Crane.

oh and lets not forget his version of Willy Wonka:

I think our facial expression is based on our personality though.

If one saw Clive Owen and Johnny standing next to each other frozen - completely expressionless.. Clive Owen would look more masculine.. but because their personality is coming through I agree that Johnny Depp seems more masculine.

Let's get a higher number for comparison.

No, it isn't about style. I wouldn't like Clive any more if he were dressed Bohemian :P Heck, I love a man that knows how to dress - just not a Libran :P

CoralFrequency gets it. However, I do think if you lined up Clive and Johnny, even STONE COLD, Johnny would still appear more masculine.

Johnny with make-up on looks more masculine to me than Clive. It's all about the facial structure, the look in the eyes, expressions, etc. I'm trying my best to describe it :P

And yes, Johnny HAS played off-beat roles (not all though: What's Eating Gilbert Grape) - but they're ROLES. Even with make-up and long hair, he still looks extremely masculine to me.
