The Taurus Man
The Taurus Man: Love, Sexuality, Friendship, Style
The Taurus Man
“If at first you don’t succeed, try and try again” could be every Taurean’s personal mantra. To an outsider’s eyes a Taurus man may sometimes appear slow and lumbering, but wave a red flag under his nose and he will paw the ground and charge.
Like the bull that attacks the matador with its head held high and nostrils flaring, the Taurean man meets every challenge that comes his way with pride and determination. He is the epitome of persistence, resolve, and strength. Provoke him at your own risk, for the Taurus man has a hot temper and won’t hesitate to unleash it.
He is set in his ways and stubborn once a decision has been reached. The Taurus man is patient and a workaholic. He is happy to be a beast of burden for a period of time, if it means that he will be able to reap the rewards later. He is the sort who will chase the big payoff and the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow.
Taurus is an Earth sign, and the Taurean man loves all things physical and material. Wallowing in the mud of delicious excess is one of the Bull’s favorite hobbies. Tactile and appreciative of the finer things, the Taurus man will surround himself with comfort and luxury — fine food and expensive wine, the classical arts, and the good life are what he strives for. Toil and struggle are dandy, but at the finish line, a Taurus man will want his just rewards.
A Taurus man is traditional and prudent. He can be an old-school kind of man who will open doors for you and turn up with a corsage as a first-date gift. Thoughtful and sweet, with big, sad eyes, his is a slow, shy kind of charm. His overall goal in life is to have a cozy home, a warm hearth, a true partner, and a good life.
A steady routine and emotional stability suit the Taurus man just fine. He likes knowing what to expect from his career, life, and love. Some determined Taurean men stomping their way to success include Bono, David Beckham, Dennis Rodman, Fred Astaire, and Pierce Brosnan.

Love, Sexuality, Romance, and Relationships with a Taurus Man
Earthy, ribald, and lusty, the Taurus man grabs life and love by the throat and laps it all up. Extremely sensual and physical, he responds better to a gentle touch than to a cracking whip. A Taurean man’s prudence seems to desert him at the first sign of love. Galloping headfirst into love and relationships, he is a man in love with love. His temper is a symptom of his deep underlying passion, if you can get beneath that thick hide of his.
The Bull is no good at love games. He will take things at face value, so unless you really are trying to distance yourself from him, don’t suggest a “break” or an “open relationship.” These words don’t exist in the Taurean’s vocabulary.
Ruled by Venus, the Taurus man demonstrates a surprising romanticism when in a relationship, although his form of romance is of a simple variety. He will choose a partner who is his best friend, herd mate, and lover to spend the rest of his life with. Promises are unbreakable oaths to the Taurus man, and he will do his best not say anything he doesn’t mean. Dependable as he is, he would never promise the earth if he knew he couldn’t deliver it.
He enjoys the consistency and closeness of being in a relationship and will persevere in trying to make things work. He does not give away his affections lightly nor is he an inconstant lover, flitting from affair to affair. The Bull chooses his territory, sticks to it, and will happily put out to pasture there until the end of his days.
The rampaging Bull cuts a broad swathe through his admirers. Those who are partial to old fashioned manners and like being treated politely flock around the Taurus man. Gentle with his lovers, he is a strong and sensual stud in the bedroom. Sex is like fine art, to be applied, enjoyed, and perfected. There is no hurry when in bed with a Taurus man. He plays his lover like a musical instrument, drawing out the most beautiful notes, and paying attention to their needs and wants.
He is generally considered most compatible with Virgo, Capricorn, Cancer, and Pisces. See also Sun sign compatibility. However, there is a lot more to compatibility than only the comparison of the Sun signs. For example, how do your Venus signs compare? Find out Venus signs here.

Understanding Taurus Men
With the bull as his Zodiac sign, you have to know that the Taurus man can be extremely stubborn. On the other hand, this very trait makes him uniquely persistent and the Taurus man will finish what he starts. This gentleman tends to be cautious in life and will keep within his comfort zone. Adventure will be sacrificed for practicality, and stability will win over change.
The Taurus man works hard for what he has and can be selfish when it comes to his favorite possessions, so there’s a limit to this gentleman’s sharing nature. Beneath the composed, easy-going exterior of the Taurus man lays a tenacious temper – when you borrow something, remember to bring it back in the same condition you received it.
Money & the Taurus Man
The Taurus man enjoys the good life and will make sure that his partner is spoiled to the best of his ability. You can’t call the Taurus man greedy, but he is materialistic and makes every effort to achieve a financially secure lifestyle. Investments will be sound choices offering safe returns rather than high-yield, high-risk undertakings.
Leaning towards practicality, the Taurus man always looks for a good deal on every purchase, but won’t sacrifice quality just to save a dollar. This man doesn’t go cheap on certain items, so don’t go bargain basement when you buy for him. He is forever attracted to things that promise to last.
Fashion & the Taurus Man
The refined Taurus man will highlight his wardrobe with mauve and pale blues, so you can expect to see silk ties and casual shirts in these colors.
Always on top of the fashion scene, the Taurus man enjoys shopping for the latest styles in clothing and shoes. When he sports some ‘bling’ it will be tasteful and of a good quality. If he says gold, he doesn’t mean gold plated.
Even though he dresses well and is proud of the way he looks, the Taurus man will rarely flaunt what he has. He buys to please himself.
Relationships & the Taurus Man
Reserved and self-conscious around those he doesn’t know, the Taurus man may find it difficult to meet new people – but that doesn’t mean he ever lets himself be taken out of the game, because his bullish attitude won’t allow it.
As long as his partner is committed to their relationship, the Taurus man will give himself completely to the success of their union. Usually quiet and subdued, this man can be extremely jealous and will show another side of his nature if it becomes necessary to protect what he feels is his.
Romance & the Taurus Man
The Taurus man is an affectionate and sensual individual who enjoys the romantic pleasures of courting, but practices a great deal of patience before entering into a relationship.
His voice and manner are generally calm, soothing, and even healing. These things are part of his overall appeal.
This man takes pleasure in the warmth of physical contact, but is not an overly daring person in the bedroom — although the right partner could change that. Maybe he’s not adventurous, but the Taurus man definitely isn’t boring with the right partner, and his superb stamina can make him quite the athletic lover.
When it comes right down to it, the Taurus man knows what he likes and will make sure his partner knows exactly what that is!
Health & the Taurus Man
High stamina levels generally keep this man healthy, although there is often the threat of extra weight with his hearty appetite and love of great food. Nevertheless, many Taurus men monitor this well and apply their legendary willpower to keep themselves trim.
Minor neck and throat problems are possible with a Taurus.
Career & the Taurus Man
The Taurus man is dependable and persevering, excelling in whatever assignment he takes on. With a creative eye and enjoying the stability of a day-to-day routine, he would do well as a musician, artist, architect, or antiques dealer.
This man loves money, so when you combine that with his positive characteristics, the gentleman is ideally suited for the position of banker, stockbroker, insurance agent, accountant, or realtor.
Imaginative, yet practical, the Taurus man may be the ideal candidate when you’re looking for someone to build that special home with you.
