people want what is attractive to them

and different cultures have different standards of beauty

some people see beauty as a tall stretched neck



some people see beauty as a face tattoo



its all a matter of your cultural conditioning

Well, let’s compare just a couple of “God’s gifts” for a minute.

Intellect… when brought to fruition can generate cures for world spread illnesses, cultivate food resources for impoverished countries, and lead the whole world into the future with unthinkable technologies. (Just a few examples)

Physical Beauty… when properly preened can bring forth bountiful gifts for deserving countries too…ummmm... a Trojan Horse maybe? (Sorry couldn’t think of any other way that personal beauty has had an effect on the world at large.)



you know i wouldn't know i can only see your shadow. but you make a good point and women that are highly intelligent are HOT! but there is still a preference and what about people with IQ'S of 80 where do they fit in?

Hey Ronny! happy

If I were here to date I would post a good face picture, but don't think my looks are material for casual conversation and cultivating friendships. I hope not anyway. :tongue:

IQ's can't possibly indicate what someone will DO with their gift...so I don't understand the point of them frankly.

I'm just messing with you because I found the last part of your question amusing...maybe only because of how I think of it.

Of course I want my future partner to be attractive to me...but that attraction can come in many other forms.

Good topic by the way. flowerforyou


yeppers... thank you! I always had a thing for mommy's! I don't know why but good Mommy's are always very attractive to me! Not to say i am looking for someone to be a Mommy to my kids "they have one", but when i see a woman goo goo gaa gaa over a baby I like it a lot! I also like when a woman will have a converstaion with me about life and current events thats really attractive too!

If everyone in the world required their partner to be a supermodel before having sex, the birth rate would be a lot lower. Obviously the general standard is somewhat lower than that.

We all want to catch a keeper. Sometimes we just end up with a worm on the hook.

The same can be said for IQs! :laughing:

"If everyone in the world required their partner to have an IQ of at least 130 before having sex, the idiot/birth rate would be a lot lower". :laughing:

Sorry -- I couldn't resist. winking

How are your yellow boots today, Metal? flowerforyou

This is another instance of being politically correct, the same people who say "looks don't matter" are the same ones who say "age is just a number" "race isn't an issue" "we're all the same on the inside" and "size is not important." I admit there are people who DO feel this way, since the world is very diverse, and we don't all think the same, obviously, but seriously??? To many people that stuff DOES matter, we're all just too cowardly to admit it (well, not ME, since I don't mind saying what I want/think/feel whatever), but on the whole, many people will die and go to Hell, before they will ever go against what we've been taught is the "right way to be."

Allegedly, it's kinder to say those things, especially on profiles, however, try having one of those attributes that "don't matter" and see how much luck you have. Personally, I think it's unfair to say those things, because you mislead people, you have them thinking "well, I'm a good person, even though I'm ________(fill in the blank with whatever you are) so I might have a shot at him/her" and then they contact them and get no response or even worse, a rude response- why? Because they freaking lied and they were probably hoping no one would believe them.

We all have things we find attractive, we all have things that repulse us or turn us off or whatever, but very few people have the cajones to admit it. I admit I like skinny guys, or more specifically, young, my idea of gorgeous, skinny, clever, intelligent, sarcastic, witty, guys who don't have or want kids, and who aren't religious. Many people think I'm shallow, so what? I'm honest. Many people find honesty a turn off, more's the pity.....shades

Why do people beleive that asking for someone to be attractive physically a taboo? Don't we all do it and the ones who say they don't just "hatin" ? Is looks any different than any other God given thing such as brains?
its called maturity

if you have to look down cause you cant stand looking at the person cause of their looks or have to turn the lights off to have sex with them ,that isn't really a good thing.....although alcohol can make this a false statementdrinker

Really wouldn't it be more mature to deal with life how it really is? Or is making assumptions about someone based on their feelings inmature?

i dunno, maybe i'm crazy because i have dated 'all kinds" i do have to be be physically attracted to the guy, but my measuring stick is really long and unpredictable. i know what turns me off, but there are sooooo many more things that i can find attractive about a man...
i don't however lower my standards when it comes to they way i am treated for example...

other ways my scale is all over the place when it comes to finding attractiveness...i hope i am making sense here...

i just wanted to add...nd i have said it before in the forums too that i dont mind that other people have specific preferences...as long as they don't try to hide ignorance, luck of tolerance etc behind "their preferences" .

Willie the Shake said it in 1588 in Love's Labours Lost"

Good Lord Boyet, my beauty, though but mean,
Needs not the painted flourish of your praise:
Beauty is bought by judgement of the eye,
Not utter'd by base sale of chapmen's tongues

It's old English...but still, translated loosely: "Beauty is in the eye of the beholder."
:wink:

I don't care what anyone looks for...personally, I am attracted to intelligence, physical attraction doesn't even slip into my thought process when looking for someone to date.
