Dating - Men Choose Pretty Women - Women Are Choosier
 
Science is confirming what most women know: When given the choice for a mate, men go for good looks.

Then they must be idiots. A homely looking person can be have a better personally. I would choose that over looks any day.

Every body likes a pretty package, but a pretty package with brains and heart is the best. A smart man looks for what's inside the package not the wrappings.

Not necessarily. Those wrappings can reveal a great deal about the person too if your perception and judge of character is any good. With your rationale, you obviously agree that physical appearance is no indication of personality. If so, the reverse should be equally true.

For example, I would definitely wanna see a picture of a girl I meet online or through a friend before asking her out. Why? Because if she is wearing all black, with numerous piercings throughout her face, and ghost-white skin (an extreme Goth), SORRY! You are definitely NOT my type. Or, if the girl dresses excessively trampy and looks like a California prostitute, you are not my type.

I'm not picky as far as physical appearance, but I won't force myself to date someone I am simply not attracted to, be it over their appearance or personality. There are criteria within both that would cause me to rule out a potential date.

Personality is important too (a fact many people underestimate), but it is no reason to entirely ignore physical appearance, presentability, and general visual impressions.

Besides all of that, I have heard of women who choose their men based on their financial class, their lifestyle, and even their wardrobe. Therefore, women are just as guilty as men at ignoring personality.

A smart man looks for both. Good looks are just as important as anything else.

Luckily, my wife doesn't follow this plan.

I just hope that one day women can look past this perfectly sculpted face and this body of a greek god and see the inner LSU, i'am very compassionate and have many deep feelings, i am not just some sex object for women to gawk over!;)

So everybody, for those who are in a relationship ...what did attract you to your spouse first?

Olive skin and those big brown eyes :eyeball::eyeball: oh and that curve yes the female curve.

Blue eyes, nice lips, over the top personality (not all could handle) and intelligence!:D

Her ability to tolerate me.

Texasbelle 09-04-2007 03:52 PM

For me, it was Mr. Belle's sweet personality, he's tall, and very handsome! He was also willing to take on a single mom with children and love them as his own. It takes a very special man to do that.

joepole 09-04-2007 03:57 PM

No way. Single moms are the best because you know they put out.
