What Do You Look For in the Opposite Sex???

[Golgo-13]

That's the point. It's not the truth. The question was what do you look for in a member of the opposite sex. I answered that one of the things I look for is a sense of humor. You started some stupid crap about juggling balls and acting childish. You're the one acting childish.

The juggling ball thing was sarcasm, hench why i used the whatever smiley after after the comment.

I think you took my initial comment personal;the whole sense of humor thing. It wasn't directing it towards you but towards women in general, as they all say the same thing when asked the question. But the reason they say it, i believe, is because it SOUNDS like the good/cool thing to say. I can't believe ALL of one group of ppl like the same thing. That's just stupid.

And what if the guy has a sense of humor, but can't make you laugh..or vice versa? Do you write him off?

 

[Erzengel]

I think it's presumptious of either gender to caterorize each other as all having the same behavior.

Are there women who claim they want funny guys, but during an arguement bring up the topic of immaturity? Yeah.

Are all women like that? No.

Dude, you lost it because a couple of women said they like a sense of humor in a man. Then you questioned why I wasn't married. So yeah, that's a little personal.

But anyway, I think it's implied that the sense of humor is one compatible with her sense of humor. And I don't think it's something that ALL women say. But if they do, it's understandable. Life is hard. If you're going to be together for the long haul, it would help to have someone who can make you laugh.

:heart:

I especially like how you did the dress to cover up the bottom heavy part.

LMFAO! t:

Personally, I think that would be the biggest insult a woman could give me.

But, in the end, if you are lucky to find someone who "gets you" then......

No, I didn't 'LOSE IT', i stated my opinion. And you made it personal by bringing my wife into the debate, so i fired back. If you took it personal, then good.

The sense of humor claim is a cop out. It's like when men say they must have a woman who can cook. That's ridiculous because because very few men will turn down, let's say Jessica Biel, or Halle Berry (for example) because of her lackluster cooking skills. It's just things ppl claim they want. Most ppl don't know what the hell they want until they find it. Some live in a fantasy world.

Most ppl end up with a person who doesn' t meet half the criteria that they have on these laundry lists of mate characteristics, and are still very happy.

 

[hammy]

It's not a cop out, it's a quality some people look for. That's not to say they don't have other criteria as well, but there's nothing wrong with wanting someone who has the ability to make you laugh. You seem like someone without a sense of humor, to me. Maybe it's just that you made a really bad impression. Whatever. It's not like I care what you think. I just thought your reaction to it was way weird.

There are non-emotional women in existence? Sign me up.

A survey in Marie Claire said I hovered between half-human and half-fembot, and full-on fembot. I'm actually pretty proud of that, LOL.

Everyone gets emotional over SOMEthing. Some women cry over any little stupid thing. I cry over abused children and abused animals, and I was pretty damn upset over the VA Tech shooting and the Hurricane Katrina aftermath. (Hurricane Katrina was a BAD time to become aware about politics..) I don't think you'd be human if you didn't feel something about the latter 2.

Guys can be emotional as well. Why are guys so competitive over every little damn thing? Just another way of showing emotion...

BTW, I think Kevin James is pretty cute. And I lurrrve me some Conan O'Brien. I adore the dorkiness.

An attractive mute

eh..kinda right; for people who probably dont get a lot of ass, yall sure seem picky

 

[slave2catwoman]

Women like a clever wit, not an adolescent buffoon.

 

[GoldenAgeHero]

She is a little oreo-ish. I sometimes have to explain black references to her. Rap lyrics and BET movies and such. She hates that stuff.

thats sad

 

[slave2catwoman]

Not really. She is an educated, sophisticated woman. She is not entertained by ghetto stereotypes. I was exaggerating a bit. She does not try to be something she is not. She has never tried to "be white". But the lady has class. She doesn't think it's funny when Fitty Cent pushes a girl into the pool in a video.

ahh i see, i know the type your describing.the no non-sense type of chick,i can never see myself dating those types.

 

[slave2catwoman]

Not exactly no nonsense, more like no BS, but she enjoys life and loves to laugh. Really, she is pretty much everything a woman should be. Sexy, smart, genuine, honest. Everyone who knows her, loves her.

 

[Moviefan2k4]

Well, I've just spent the last few minutes reading (and in some cases re-reading) the last page or so of replies...all I can say is "Wow". You ask one general question, and every irrelevant opinion seems to crawl up through the woodwork. Let's please try to keep this topic friendly rather than confrontational, okay? Some of y'all are gonna wind up in a stalemate, because you both think you're right. If you're here to bicker, then I'd prefer you do it in another thread. Let's get this place back on track, shall we?

 

[Zoken]

Obviously I take physical looks into account:

I'll admit, hypocritically I want her to at a healthy weight, meaning not fat. HOWEVER I also don't wanter anorexic/model thin. Real women have curves other than their breasts. (Don't get me wrong I'm a breast man).

I like shorter hair styles, though not butchy buzz-cuts.

darker skin entices me

On a deeper level?

I want someone strong, the kind who will punch the person who calls them a "Fragile little thing" right in the nose... then kick them in the nuts.

Emotionally I like a dominant woman who knows who she is.

No excessive tree-hugging please. Its all well and good to conserve and not be wasteful, but some of these people... frustrating.

Self-aware: Aware of her flaws sure, but more over aware of how beautiful she is. I don't want a girl who barely makes the scale react and then proclaims herself fat.

Confident, sure of herself.

Funny

Straight forward. I don't like the idea of playing games. I want a woman who would come right out and ask you if you like her... I had one who did... Excuse me, I have to go kick my own ass for being an idiot.

a chick with a sense of humor. some brains. loves to drink. that's about it.

It is a cop out. Ppl say they want this quality but as soon as they get in an arguement, like another poster said, you're called 'immature'. It's like all these weird qualities that ppl claim to want are the first things they use as ammunition in a fight. Girls/woman claim to want a sensitive man, but when the guy acts sensitive they complain about him not being manly enough, go figure. Sense of humor is my thing, hence the juggling crack before. You just didn't get it.

The first thing i am going to look at is her general appearance and whether I find her attractive or not because in al honesty, there is no way unless forced that I am going to go after a woman I fuind unattractive.

However, the physical attraction fades next to all the rest which is getting to know the person. I look for intelligence and a great personality and they will fundamentally alter my perception of that girl's beauty.

 

[swifty]

so you are fine with this???

nothing a paper bag can't fix.

Physical attraction is not a big thing to me at all. I'm married now but i go to college. There was this girl in one of my classes that looked like Skeletor from He-man. I mean here face was paper bag worthy-seriously. But i found her ssssssssoooooooo sexy. Why? Because of the way she dressed, walked and carried herself. Her body was very nice but the appeal with her is that she didn't seem to be bothered by her flaws, and just highligted her other attributes.

Sometimes i thing attraction is just a chemical thing within the body. The right chemicals mixing at the right time, or what have you. It explains why you see ugly guys with hot girls, and vice versa.
