I have no idea.

I like some junk in the trunk. I'm not a fan of skinny asses. A woman needs some fat on her butt. In general I'm not a fan of girls who are extremely muscular or extremely skinny. I like a woman who's a little bit jiggly.

Honestly, I think 85% of women less then 25lbs overweight are attractive. I mean, you get some really ugly faces, and that's where the other 15% comes from.

Unfortunately, it seems like these days too high a percentage are excluded by being more than 25lbs overweight.

And some don't know how to dress to flatter themselves. One gal that works at my gym has some cellulite action that really shows when she wears short spandex. Gym shorts or knee-length spandex would totally cover that up.

I have no idea.

Is that a young Diana Rigg... ah I see by the url it is indeed... my idol as a teen.... the only female idol around.... (except for Marlo Thomas in "That Girl" shudder) do you know that as a result of the avengers, she has since had a cult following that has lasted decades... when she performs, the theaters all refer to these people who come from all over the world as "them"... :lol: Emma was supposed ot have a Ph.D in physics if I recall correctly... or was it mathematics? zen?

Hi Sweety. :o

Nude, Tan, Slim, long waist and legs, and no tattoos.

Someone who takes care of themself, both physically and mentally. Nice smile, laugh, and eyes...anything additional is just a bonus :)

I like a woman with a good sense of humor, a positive attitude and a high level of self-esteem. From my past experience, if she has all of the above things she will take care of herself physically and be in reasonably good shape.

So I guess for me it would be:
In reasonably good shape (Some extra weight if fine as long as she’s healthy).
And a good personality.

But the most beautiful woman I know is my wife = Petite blonde with a tight body and a heart shaped ass.

One more thing I'd like to add: There is something VERY sexy about a 40+ woman who is in really good shape.

Oh yes, that works.

Whooooop wooooo

"Smooth like a hot comb on nappy ass hair"

My tastes have actually changed over the past year as I have begun to workout. I used to like a little "extra" baggage but now I love the thin toned look. I guess it is more of the commitment to excercise and the understanding of what it took for them to get there.

I also like:
brownish curly hair
Big B or Small C is perfect
Bubble Ass

And most importantly someone that truly adores me and receives joy out me being happy will trump any of the other physical attributes everytime!

For me it's not all about looks. Although the basic look of the woman plays a large role.

But some women have this "thing".e.g. the way they walk, mannerisms, certain affectations, what they say with their eyes etc.

In other words they exude a certain allure ( in a word...feminine).

Many women look really good...but you can feel the hostility from 4 blocks away.....Whoooaaaa!

Most times I'd trade 100 percent sexy looks for 60percent looks and 40 percent sexual allure.

A lot of women I like are sexy when they're not trying to be. It's things that they do and the way they act a lot of times that turns me on.

Which is why I'd rather have had sex with Mimi Rogers than Pamela Anderson.....

I basically agree with Hevy, For me, it's not a particular type, bacause there are just too many woman of all sorts who are beautiful. Obviously, she has to be fit, and exude a certain degree of maturity and confidence. Savyart and Justitia in particular are great examples

Ever since I've been training, I've been more attracted by women in shape, especially shoulders! I love a little triceps on the arms, as well. For the rest, it's the same as before: big C cup or small D cup, great hip to waist ratio, big pretty eyes, and that sweet yet sexy look. What really turns me on, is confident and intelligent women, who like both high brow and low brow culture.
After five and a half years, I sometimes forget how perfect my gf is for me, these threads help me remember. Thanks! :tu:

(Just trying to stir the pot a little :D )

Two turnoffs for me is a smoker and a beer belly.

I hate when women try to drive.
They do not belong on the roads.

FACT - 11 out of 10 car accidents are caused by women.

WOAH! Surely you are not talking about me. I have had one ticket in my ENTIRE life. going 30 in a 25.
I am an excellent driver, have never been in an accident. Have great insurance to prove it! :D

Actually, young male drivers are far more likely to be the cause of car accidents.

That's cause they stare at young women and don't look where they are going!!!!:lol:

Turn ons: Nice smile, funny, sexy figure & face, deep beautiful eyes, nice hair.

Turn offs: Swearing, loud, fat or stick thin (made worse if they wear any sort of tight and revealing clothing....eugh), no self esteem, dumb.

That about sums it up. Then again, some men see more in one girl than others do. I think my girlfriend is absolutely the most beautiful woman in the world, inside and out.:D

says insurance companies, who happen to be all run by women.

I posted something here about this, but in favor of enjoying being alive - I deleted it.

It was a series of pictures of female driving mishaps.

Turnons:
Everything female that I get attracted to (and that makes about every size and shape... As long as they're not to fat or skinny :) )

turnoffs!
girls that can't handle alcohol...

Uhm. I'm not very good at this :)

- Dark brown hair
- Dark brown eyes
- Short (around 5'3)
- Thin, not necessarily fit but looks as if they're gifted genetically
- Decent sized boobs (nothing big.. more on the smaller side)
- Firm butt, heart-shaped but not enormous and CERTAINLY not small
- Darker complexity (ones that look like they have that natural tan)
- Quiet, shy but a bitch
- Teeny bopper-ish (ones that wear the baby Ts and hip huggers)

Oh what the hell, I love all kinds of women.

There are many physical features that are important such as smile and skin, but because this is a fitness website perhaps you are interested what you can improve in the gym? In that case, the most important factor by far is a low waist-to-hip ratio.

Throughout human history many different looks have been in style at one time or another: pale, plump, thin, tan, etc., but the one thing that has remained constant is a preference for a low waist-to-hip ratio, primarily because it's a strong (subconscious) indicator of fertility.

If I had control over my girlfriend's workout routine (not that she has one -- or that I'd have control if she did -- ) it would look like this:

Day 1: Run
Day 2: Squats, Glute Exercises
Day 3: Rest
Repeat.

I'm always confused when girls worry about large thighs or behinds. Here are some references (I got a little carried away):

Little waist, nice booty, nice thighs - like a clydesdale.

I'm thinking Tonya Harding :drool: - flame away.

EDIT: ...And yes, I think Tonya Harding looked good back in the crowbar-to-Kerrigan's-knee days.

Hmm....While I appreciate and admire thin, muscular women with abs etc., I am not really physically attracted to that. I like curves....basically anything out of a Russ Meyer movie is perfect for me :D

As far as women drivers go -- I am 10 times worse than any woman driver. I've got more tickets than I can count, crashed two cars and totalled one by driving off of a cliff. Luckily, I haven't driven a car in the last 6 years, but that is about to change soon...unfortunately for me. I kinda like not having had to drive.

Hmmmm.....Im thinking Mary Lou Retton circa 1984.

Definately a woman with muscular thighs, flat stomach and a round bottom. I dont care what she looks like up top (flat, small, big, etc.) as that isnt so important to me as long as its "natural".

I guess you can say a cross between Vida Guerra and any Ukranian/Russian 100 meter sprinter is about right. :tucool:

Oh! I forgot to mention, definately no tatoos. I dont care how "cute" or small or how its now socially acceptable or "I got this for a special occasion" type of tatoo it is, a tatoo on a woman is almost as bad as a woman who smokes. Im just not into it.

I'm with you on that.

done tastefully they can actually look very sexy

Sacral tattoos FTW! :D

I haven't seen that yet.

Tattoos on gals are fine to me. My GF has one on her foot and one on her upper back.

Some people like it and find it sexy but not me.

I dated a girl (actually one date) who was so proud of her tattoo she wanted to show me thinking that I would be all impressed. I told her "Wow, you actually paid old Snake Eyes down at Hollywood Tattoo Parlour to scar you near your 'unmentionable area' by giving you a butterfly tattoo while you sat there exposed to Old Snake Eyes and the world? Sweet!! Im taking you home to meet my mom. You're quite a catch":lol:

Hey, many tatoo artists are very respectable.

Is "horizontal" and acceptable answer to the thread title?

Let's face it, guys. We're easy. If she's got less than 25% body fat and she wasn't beaten with an ugly stick, we're up for it.

But... in a world where I have the luxury of being picky, I like 'em tanned, toned, and healthy looking a la Minna Lessig or Monica Brant (out of contest season).

You might not like tattoos on women (I don't care for them myself), but the above is a bit much. You're also misinformed. I'm sure "Old Snake Eyes" just propped the gal up on a table for the world to see her "unmentionalble area" while she was being inked. :rolleyes:

Monica Brant
Best example yet.

Mena Suvari. I could only asky for bigger boobs but everything else is purrfect. I am only talking body here not face. I can think of a lot better looking woman.

Both would get my engine revving in their own ways, but Vida would definitely be my 1st round pick. That booty is just out of sight, and she has great thighs and face. Kinda looks like a latina Brittany Spears to me (a lot of guys don't like her face though.)

Lisa = coffee shop, intellectual talk, go to Barnes & Noble, watch a thought provoking film, have traditional/more conservative sex.

Vida = hip cocktail place, rock climbing, go to sex toy shop (oh I forgot in TX - "novelty shop,") install stripper pole in house and get pants provoking dance, naughty wild sex.

Both good - but for the pure fantasy in me, Vida :) Throw Beyonce into the mix and I'll probably explode!!!!!

I wouldnt want to have sex with Vida unless we were married. :nod:

I do think Audrey Hepburn was quite sexy with a cigerette:nod:, but very few women can pull this off.

My list:

Curly hair
Big bright eyes
Great smile
Good skin, can be tanned or pasty
Smart- I had the "smartest guy in my grade in a small school" complex and LOVE women smarter than me!!!:drool:
Perky but not disgustingly so..
Red hair is a plus
Flat stomach

I tend to lean towards slim but the biggest crush I had growing up was Danielle_Fishel (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Danielle_Fishel) from Boy Meets World, even when she got some junk in her trunk the last few seasons.

Oh yeah and shee needs to be just a little horny.....:evil:

I like just about everything about women and am very open to all types but the following will be grounds for immediate disqualification. I think most guys will agree witht this list:
- Bitchy
- Low self esteem
- Crazy/stalker type
- Crys Alot
- Depressed
- Yells Alot
Notice that none of these have anything to do with how you look.

Hot, goofy, and comfortable in her own skin.

are all men into curly brown hair ?? bummer

Cocky . . . and slightly mental . . . or it could just be a coincidence that all the ones I date are like that.

Or maybe it's me, do I send them crazy??? Could be . . . that would certainly explain a lot.

I'm going to go and introspect now . . . can you introspect? Is it allowed to be a verb? I think it should be, I think introspecting should be ok.

Maybe I should relax.

are all men into curly brown hair ?? bummer
I don't like curly hair. Coloring really depends on skin tone and cut.:read:

Gotta have a pretty face. Hands down. Physically everything takes a back seat.

Don't have to be anywhere near a physical specimen, but you have to give a damn.

As far as personality, can't be shy. You have to have a bit of a back bone. If I ask where would you like to go eat, tell me exactly where. None of that "I don't really care." Because that never means I don't care.

That means take me to a nice place no fast food, but don't take me to a really nice place because I'm not dressed for it. Blah blah blah blah.

As long as you are nice and act like a lady I'll give it a swirl.


Above all else; I'm a leg man. Dress accordingly. ;)

Cute, considerate, kind, humble, curious, loving, healthy and reasonably fit.

Not I. I have always preferred nice long, straight, blonde hair.
One of the many wonderful features that my wife has... It took me 30 years to find the right one.

Something like this would get my attention if nothing else :D ;)

Curvy, ideally slightly heavier than "slim"

Rachel Weisz

I think when you're young you go for a certain physical type, and as you grow older, personality is the main thing. Of course some nice curves always help.

Pedro.

I'm not very picky, my ONLY rule is that they must be active, if you don't excercise don't even talk to me. Other than that my taste for women changes with the woman and her personality. I like all shapes and sizes, black or white, brown hair or blonde hair, blue eyes or green eyes, tall or short...like I said it depends on the person.

...BTW...I'm single :confused: so don't think this comes from a married guy or something.

wow, this thread may never die...

How do I like my lady...

The ones I am attracted to are intelligent and pay close attention to their bodies. Not because of arrogance but because of awareness. I like curves. I understand cosmetic surgery but would rather have a confident girl with a hot smile and droopy breasts. But fine implants if they feel better to her.

I want a workout partner because it is the rare time when I do not think about business or money or problems. I just am. I flow. It works for the both of us.

I dig chicks who can balance the testosterone level of the gym with a cryptic sweet sense of humor with a few blades that cut mixed in for good measure.

When going out to eat I want a girl that does not bust my ass if I decide to detour from my diet. Let me enjoy the meal and bust my ass at noon the next day. Just make sure the sex was good the night before and wrap the critique in humor (the diet bust) and all is well. I will do the same for her.

I want a lifestyle not a one night fitness stand. K, that is me.

Since this thread got bumped again, here's some interesting links:

On Lisa Loeb (I too, dig chicks with glasses, especially musicians with glasses!) -- an Interview TVSquad did with Lisa Loeb (http://www.tvsquad.com/2006/02/23/the-tv-squad-interview-lisa-loeb-part-1/) (Here's Part 2 (http://www.tvsquad.com/2006/02/24/the-tv-squad-interview-lisa-loeb-part-2/)) that ended up discussing her dating life. Apparently she has/had a show called "#1 Single" -- has anyone seen that? Sounds pretty fun!

On the dating a musician theme, this is one of my favourite scenes from one of my favourite movies, "High Fidelity":

Barry: I wanna date a musician.
Rob Gordon: I wanna live with a musician. She'd write songs at home and ask me what I thought of them, and maybe even include one of our little private jokes in the liner notes.
Barry: Maybe a little picture of me in the liner notes.
Dick: Just in the background somewhere.


That's me! Maybe I'm just recoiling from my logical, left brained engineer ways, but I dig the brainy, artsy types!

On Danielle Fishelle (aka Topanga), here's an story detailing a failed pickup attempt (http://www.betterthanyourboyfriend.com/failed-celebrity-pickup-danielle-fishel.htm), interesting!

Finally, I arrived at Mel’s. I walked in with no hesitation. Any awkwardness could be sensed a mile away and would ruin it. With a girl of this caliber, there is no room for error.

I glanced around. The tables were packed with pickup artist and pickup artist wannabes from all over the world. Jay had kept them at bay because he know how much I liked Danielle. It was as if I was entering a boxing ring - all eyes were on me, Danielle, and her table.

Bahh none of the famous people because that is all so faked.

There are plenty women here who are amazingly beautiful. Not to embarass them but Maggie (CausticMuse) and Blue2805 immediately spring to mind. There are many others. (Pretty much any member on JSF who has set and achieved goals would meet my criteria!)

All these women are truly beautiful but *Real*. All the celebrities/magazines/movies/singers etc are *Not Real*.

I also like fitness model Jelena Djordjivic.

Hope I didn't make any members uncomfortable, if I mentioned you and you would ilke me to remove your name just PM me.

I find your comments to be interesting on several levels. I could discuss this with you privately, but I think I'd like to say it out here instead.

1) celebrities are indeed real people. The airbrushed photos you see and the edited movies you watch, may not be real, but behind the scenes, when you strip off all that glamour, there's still a person there. Celebrities rarely date people outside their industry, because regular people have trouble making this distinction.

2) I'm uncomfortable for all of the beautiful women who are members of this forum whom you didn't mention. Not surprisingly, those people that you listed have a lower than average body weight or body fat percentage. Had you met me twelve years ago when I was overweight, or three years ago, when I was smack dab in the middle of the "normal" (read: healthy) weight category, I don't think you would have taken the time to consider my beauty.

By losing a few pounds, it seems I've suddenly become a more valuable person, and, that, to me, is uncomfortable.

I find your comments to be interesting on several levels. I could discuss this with you privately, but I think I'd like to say it out here instead.

1) celebrities are indeed real people. The airbrushed photos you see and the edited movies you watch, may not be real, but behind the scenes, when you strip off all that glamour, there's still a person there. Celebrities rarely date people outside their industry, because regular people have trouble making this distinction.

2) I'm uncomfortable for all of the beautiful women who are members of this forum whom you didn't mention. Not surprisingly, those people that you listed have a lower than average body weight or body fat percentage.

Sorry to make you uncomfortable.

As you noticed I mentioned "and many others" those were just three names that immediately popped into my head. (There truly are a ton of others, I had just gotten done reading a bit of your journal, a post by Maggie, and a post by Blue, so those names were on the tip of my tongue).

Also, this thread is about how individual men like their women, and for me someone who takes enough pride in themselves to dedicate the time and hard work to make a positive change *are* more attractive (you said "more valuable", but that isn't what I was going for) then those that don't.

In your case, I find your transformation inspiring, and because of your success, and other posts and ideas thought you worthy of naming.

Many apologies for making you uncomfortable.

As to your point of celebrities not being "real", I mean the image we see/hear of them is so doctored, distorted, spun, engineered, etc that the perception is no longer reality. Of course they are "real" people, and many of them are beautiful, but if you meet one in person you quickly realize that your image of what they look like (and indeed, ARE like/Act like) are not the same thing. -- So, instead of searching for examples of wonderful women out in this fake-ether the media promotes, I picked some examples of beautiful women who are members here.

And let me stress again, many, many (all?) the people on JSF who have set and achieved aspiring goals would be worthy additions to that list, it's just that those three names in particular were right at the top of my mind.

I should have sent you a PM instead.:p

That other thread, about the Dove video, scrambled my brain.:doh:

What I meant to say was, when names of real forum members are mentioned, it can make the people who weren't mentioned feel bad. There are certainly many people on this forum that you didn't mention whom I consider to be extraordinarily beautiful.:)

I should have sent you a PM instead.:p



I, for one, am glad you didn't. I like seeing good examples of conflict resolution.:tucool: I'm still always learning that disagreement isn't necessarily a bad thing. :o And that communication is an evolving process, all the time.

I agree, if you had PM`d other people might have had the same thoughts and would never have been clarified. :confused:

As for my perfect woman, she is at home with my perfect child in my perfect home. And I am the luckiest man alive, as I expect a lot of others hear can say.

I think Evangeline Lilly is very attractive. However I am not that picky. I like my women a little on the softer side. I like the look of a fit woman like Evangeline, but I have never dated anyone that buff so I can't say if I like the way a woman like that "feels". Of course now I am happily married and my wife and I trying to lose all the weight we put on in college so maybe someday I will find out. ;)

Kristen Bell is perfect. I'll take one of those, please. :D

breathing. Although I'm flexible here on the weekends.

Looks and fitness are not everything. But I dont think a woman should be to lean actually. I dont think a woman with 7-9% BF or less is very sexy. Of course I would be impressed with her hard work and progress from a training and fitness point of view. But from my man-is-looking-for-a-woman point of view I would prefer 13-18% or something like that. It looks way more attractive and sexy, IMO.

Perhaps someone that is a bit shorter than me...but almost my height.

I dont have a preference for hair color and eye color. Because I can like all alternatives.:blank:

Age should probably somewhat close to my age. But it´s not very critical really. If I feel that I like someone it no longer makes any difference.

7-8% BF.... I dont know too many women that get that low to begin with.... let alone maintain it ;)

Yes, probably only women that intend to compete and some extreme models are 7-8% Bf...
I guess I prefer a woman that looks somewhat fit but still in a healthy and natural way. At least I think that´s attractive.:)

Of course I dont measure her BF% first before I decide if I can fall in love with a woman.:nope:

And of course it´s just my very subjective opinion. But sometimes a guy must be allowed to be a bit subjective and selfish.:rolleyes:

Hey, for sure :D

Those who don't flee in my presence get a few brownie points.

As for physical appearance, I feel that if women can't take care of themself, then how can she take care or me, or a kid? I don't think that I have very high expectations when it somes to fitness, just that she hasn't "let herself go". I know it's cliche, but a great sense of humor (read: laughing at my jokes) and a sharp wit are a must for me. I've developed many debilitating crushes on cute girls who love to laugh (and don't have an annoying laugh).

I don't like it when a girl is really skinny or looks like she spends a lot of time on her appearance. Thin and fit is great, but the only ribs I like come with BBQ sauce on the side.

As for purely physical lusts, Jennifer Connelly (pre-turning super skinny) all the way. What can I say, I'm a breast man :)

I've usually heard of body fat percentage levels for female figure contestants to be in the 12 to 14 percent range. This is equivalent to 5 to 7% for men. Female bodybuilders might compete at a little bit lower than that.

"T: What are your stats right now?

GA: I weigh 129 to 131 for contests with an off-season weight of 138. I'm 5' 4", 36-26-36. My body fat is 5-6% for a contest and about 10-12% in the off-season."

Extreme low BF% is very unhealthy for both men and women. Even if men can survive at a lower BF%. But, probably, people that wants to win competitions are prepared to do almost anything.

Personally I think it´s best to focus on health first. :)

What people say and what they actually are can be 2 diffrent things. My trainer always jokes about guys that brag that are like 3-4%.... yeah right!
I think Magda (his wife) was about 10% BF and she was RIPPED!!

Ah, I see. I had no idea women competed that low. Compared to other reported body fat percentages I've seen, she looks like about 10 to 12% in those pictures.

OK, Carole has a great body that looks to be in great shape. Now I have mentioned one.

women seem to competing lower and lower....thats what the judges are looking for so no wonder :confused:

I want symmetry and coordination in a woman, but the most important is the metaphysical and psychological health of the beloved. I never knew that bipolar was manifest in her family-didn't know until she was in the ward and told me.

I'm biased now.


I used to work as a 'hired man'. In that position I worked with both hispanic and white young men. The white boys (including me at the time) would not talk about their relationships. There are always the variables though.

Papa

I'm pretty short myself (5'3".5) so naturally, I like'm short. Mandy, my wife is 5'1". :lol: :lol: :lol:

But you know what? She just started getting up at 5a.m. in the morning to do cardio and she lifts on the weekends. I've not found her this attractive and sexy in the 6 years we've been together! So I guess what I find most sexy in a woman is integrity...

Mick

I give you perfection

Most guys I personally know are really picky. But hey, everyone is different I guess.

Me, I find all sorts of things attractive. Though if we are talking a um...one night get-together: at the top of the list if I were to find a genie's bottle is just about anything hispanic (doesn't even have to be, can just look similar), or anything reasonably shaped with dark curly hair (kryptonite).

Now if we are talking a relationship of some kind for any decent length of time, looks aren't as important as long as they are healthy and clean and actively keep themselves that way (as I do). As I said, I'm attracted to all sorts of girls. But what matters most, by far, is if what's floating around up in their skull is a match for me. Is this a person I can comfortably hang out and chill with? Is this someone that likes things that I like? Is this a person with a personality to match/compliment mine? They can be hot as hell, but if the rest of this stuff doesn't synch up, it's going to get boring, weird or both much sooner rather than later.

Mind and spirit first, body later.

As I am already married, the question of attraction to women is no longer applicable, but I think I can sum up some of the main things that brought my wife and me together: mainly, that we are similar in some key ways. For example, we have similar kinds of explosive temperament - we'd each be capable of alarming anyone who doesn't know us, but we're more likely to find each other's hot-headedness entertaining (or at least understandable). We also have many of the same patterns of skepticism or acceptance of the world around us, and are amused or disgusted by many of the same sets of things, and this makes for a good degree of compatibility.

I would very much argue against the commonly held notion that it is "opposites" that attract.

I've found the girl I'm going to marryl, but I'll chime in. Beauty is common. What I really find attractive is a great energy and a great outlook. I've been on most ends of the spectrum when it comes to my experiences with women, but I've settled upon a girl that is a brunette, has very big, brown puppydog eyes, 5'8", curvaceous in just the right places, and very feminine acting. I definitely am not after the fitness model or anorexic look, but I do appreciate a girl that takes care of herself, is graceful, and just sort of radiates her beauty...

Not to derail the topic, but even if you're with the cutest girl in the world, there has to be more to the relationship than social-proof or perceived value from others, or else I just begin to lose interest. I have always tried to focus on giving women incredible emotional and physical highs, I think this has unlocked many doors for me. Women are incredibly intuitive and when they can sense a great deal of passion, unashamed desire, and realness, they turn into completely different creatures. Women are, in my experience, HORNY AS HELL. Although they will never admit this to your face.

All women are beautiful , aren't they?:)

Yeah... I also heard...."Beauty is in the eye of a beer holder" :lol:

My husband was previously attracted briefly to a friend of mine, but I'm not bothered by that, because they had nothing in common, and we both understand that.

Married couples fight more about money than any other thing. If you want to have a more peaceful marriage, find someone who shares your economic principals.

I wouldn't argue against it. While I am shy, my husband is outgoing. While I am patient, my husband is driven. Our unique characteristics complement each other well.

"manlike" muscles, such as abs or pecs or anything on a womean really turn me of bigtime.

in my eyes, women need curves and asses - the today fashiontrend is just
all about those strange anorectig girls that look like a decent blod of wind would
snap them easy as a straw.

my current girlfriend got a big ass and a really cute lil belly, that is perfectly alright
with me, i want to actually be able to feel the girl.

however, FAT chicks are a major turnoff - but shes just perfect from the proportions :drool:

I like my women like my coffee.

:lol: ... i thought you were going to say something else then...

I thought about this for a while...but basically, since most Israeli women are fit and they have a wide variety of looks...my only answer is: Israeli.

Gila, I'm looking your direction :whistle: ...got a sister????hehehe!

A lot of factors come into it for me, personality looks, and her spiritual walk, but to nail it down it would be:

*Knows how to cook, looks fade away, but cooking is the same. I don't want to marry someone "hot" and live with terrible cooking the rest of my life.

*Personality wise, the usual traits would apply, kind, loving, caring, and so forth. Being intelligent is also a plus :)

*Finally for looks, they vary so much, but I like girls shorter than me, a lot shorter than me. Girls that have long hair, for some reason I really like that. I don't like them too skinny, or too fit, as in 6 packs on a girl puts me off a bit. An example of a girl I like is Petra Nemcova. I like them Eastern Europeans, Slavic especially, them or Japanese/Korean girls :)

Muscular legs on a girl drives me nuts. Just nuts.

But if I love someone, I can get into a lot of different looks and a lot of different body types. But I can't be specific, because there are too many things I love about women. There are WAY too many "types" of women and "assets" they can have that drive me nuts. I'd just prefer someone not be thin as a rail. It's not sexy.

I easily find a girl who is somewhat overweight far more attractive than one who is WAY underweight. If I wanted to date twelve year olds, well... I'd be in jail. Then I suppose I'd have to find some REALLY strange things attractive about my "women".

Muscular legs on a girl drives me nuts. Just nuts.



Im with you on that one brother. Love women with muscular legs. Back when I was a kid, I had the biggest crush on Mary Lou Retton.

small (150-155 cm)
petite
long hair
somewhat toned arms
almond eyes
thin lips
long hair

However, these are all negotiable. Particularly so when a really good, fun personality is involved.

I wonder how much of this is a result of having moved to Japan.

I fall into the "beggars can't be choosers" category :blank:
