Both are hardworking, serious, reserved, have a good reputation in certain areas

Ok I will.. may as well. Even though I like Taurus Mars, and we get on great most of the time (with the occasional argument).. They are MUCH more given to "pleasure" in general - any kind of pleasure.

Pleasure doesn't mean much at all to my Capricorn Mars. I could do anything if I had to, including living a highly non-pleasurable life and dedicating myself to work. I have done this on occasions in my life.

Taurus Mars loves their food, their alcohol, their sex.. They would never give anything like that up.

Capricorn Mars is often found in the charts of VERY successful people. They work EXTREMELY hard to get where they do and can sacrifice a lot in their quest. However, they can be ruthless and tread on people's heads to climb the ladder.

Lara, triplecancer and Virgoh- So you guys have healthy egos ! I start questioning and feeling sorry for myself everything goes wrong when I can't have sex or party for a long period- virgo mars that

'but once it is available you totally indulge like it's your last.'

so is this the case for you all ?

Both of them are very successful, but their motivations differ.

The Capricorn Mars is a success because she wants to be at the top of her industry - she has a need to be seen as successful.

They say Virgos are modest bla bla, I dont know, I am modest to some extent because I do play down success and other things yes but in the ego department, and I am not bragging, my ego is bigger than life itself, and I love it this way and that won't change for anyone or anything even if it goes against my so called "Modest sign".

sorry to seem like a goof but isn't food a necessity not a pleasure!!!!!!!

anyway, it's not all about being picky and starving yourself of sex morally cos there is masturbation!

Maybe Virgos will disagree and correct me on this, of course I am generalising about the sign. Aspects may alter the expression.

Capricorn is a sign of stamina. With Mars it is very strong, powerful. It is exalted in this sign. It's all about endurance.

Mars in Taurus people have commented on several Lindaland threads about the physicality of the placement. They are very sensitive to invasion of their space. They are also very sensual.

Some Mars in Taurus people talk about it in depth on here:

Deliverance- Spot on ! That's exactly what I meant by suggesting that Capricorn Mars cares about their public image because they identify themselves with it and they need that extra motivation.

Virgoh- 'my ego is bigger than life itself'

Stay that way please

Lol !

'anyway, it's not all about being picky and starving yourself of sex morally cos there is masturbation! '

Do you guys agree ?

I think Mars in Taurus is more sensual too I agree. They seem to be the most natural Earth sign when it comes to sex. Capricorn
is more nervous, as if they have to prove themselves.

Taurus Mars

very hardworking and ambitious but they also love to party

tend to love my food, sex and other pleasures that come along and would never give any of it up for nothing

can go for long periods without having sex too without any problems, but once it is available you totally indulge like it's your last.

Mars in Taurus people have commented on several Lindaland threads about the physicality of the placement. They are also very sensual.

Everything else said, I haven't personally seen in the Taurus Mars men I know. I don't know any women with the placement, nor do I think Mars is the beginning and end all of a chart. I find Taurus Mars men very sexually attractive, but at the same time there is a laziness and lack of control, that I can't relate to.

I would never think that all Taurus Mars men are like this. It's purely based on guys I've been close to. What I mean by laziness is everything is slow and sensual about their body language. It's almost a bit too slow for me.
By lack of control I mean - both of the guys I actually dated with this placement.. often sweet-talked their way into sex – for purely physical reasons.. "tell them what they want to hear until you get them into bed" is the motto. They can be quite the Casanova-type. "Love'em, diss'em.. and lie to get some more". They are too unreliable from my Cap Mars perspective.

seem to be true workaholics

they do turn down fun offers when they are working.

hasn't had a vacation for 5 years and told me that he is ok with that.

They work EXTREMELY hard to get where they do and can sacrifice a lot in their quest. However, they can be ruthless and tread on people's heads to climb the ladder.
(the last part doesn’t apply to me personally but rarely, I have seen this behaviour in my bf – he has Cap Mars also)

The Capricorn Mars is a success because she wants to be at the top of her industry - she has a need to be seen as successful.
(again – I see this with my bf.. but I have Mars conjunct Neptune, so I generally want to be successful to be able to work in an area where I can do something for other people)

Capricorn is a sign of stamina. With Mars it is very strong, powerful. It is exalted in this sign. It's all about endurance.
(true for both me and my bf lol)

I prefer my Cap Mars bf, to the Taurus Mars guys, purely because I really feel like I could trust him with anything. My Moon is in Capricorn also (conjunct his Mars). I love men that strike me as reliable and mature. This is how he comes accross.

There is a cute, boyish immaturity about Taurus Mars - that I do like, but I couldn't be in a relationship with it. I just find them unreliable, basically. They make nice friends (not bfs).

I am definitely not sweet talking anyone to take em to bed the feeling must be mutual and I am not taking anyone into bed just for the sex let alone lie to them, there is more to it than just sex, if anything they should thank their lucky stars I selected them at the first place.

I agree with the rest of what you said.

Lara, masturbation and sex are 2 different things including the end result, you can never substitute it for sex.
