Woman: what physical traits must a potential boyfreind have?

Post Reply New Topic

it seems like statistically, people with certain physiques have more opportunities with the opposite sex.

but that type is not my preference - there are overall trends in the majority of guys i have found attractive (skinny, hairy), but i have been attracted to (and have dated) men with many different sorts of body types.

you know what i don't believe? i don't believe that we are somehow stuck finding only a certain type attractive. i think we can change that, considering that our preferences do evolve over a lifespan. when i was 14, i only like boys who had a certain 'look', and now i am more openminded. tastes change. but... it also depends on whether a person WANTS to change their preferences.

I do not find the triangle body shape attractive in the least. I am only attracted to males who are lanky or who are small and curvy (not chubby). The men I find attractive tend to look too "wimpy" and/or feminine for most people. I have a preference for the smaller, more delicate, pretty things- it doesn't matter if it's pets, flowers, tea cups, or men. . . whatever

As for the other females I know (because I know I am a terrible example of the average/normal female), I don't think they are that picky when it comes to looks. Sometimes they speak as if they are, but when it comes to the actual males they are attracted to, the shapes and sizes vary greatly. They tend to speak as if they prefer tall muscular men with a triangle body shape, a fairly soft face, and sparkly eyes, but they seem to go crazy over and date everything from the ideal they talk about to short chubby guys that know what to say and when to say it.

When it comes to most women, I think looks help but are not the most important thing, and most women have a very wide range of body types/looks they will consider. The men I know tend to talk about how wonderful a girl is based on what she looks like and the things she does. The women tend to talk about how the men make them feel and the things they do for them. (Obviously, I am not trying to say these things are true for everyone, but they are largely true for the people I know.)
