are men really more attracted by sight than women?

    Yes, you have to have the initial physical attraction, but, at least for me, if a man is dull or just off in the personality traits, he then automatically becomes unattractive. Where I think men can overlook the personality for a little longer just to get some from a hot chick. I have been physically attracted to, then talk to them and wow... all of the sudden they are repulsive.

    This! And the opposite is sometimes true as well. Someone who maybe doesnt have the looks Id typically be attracted to might get a second look if his personality rocks.
  • I think the differences between men and women in this department don't lie just in aesthetics. I think it is a combination of primal instinct--and societal allowances that men are allowed to ascribe to, that women can't as easily pull off without being admonished.

    When I look at a man it takes under one second for me to decide his financial situation, his attitude, his motivation level and his personal hygiene habits, in this first second most are disregarded, I can tell so so fast what I think of a man, then if at the end of that one second he is attractrive Im in for an introduction, but he has to go through a lot of points of inspection before my mind even is able to see if he is attraction, its like siiix paaa whoa hair, big should..... whoa are those shorts faded?, its very fast

    Huh?



    Thank you, that was a very helpful comment

    :laugh: Sorry. I truly had no idea what you were trying to say. So you can tell in under a second what someone's financial status is? His attitude and motivation? Really? Come on now.

    What I look for are disqualifying factors, a lack of money, a lack of motivation, a lack of self respect are very easy to pick up on, a sense that they do have any of these features takes long to confirm

    "takes long to confirm" but you originally said you can determine these factors under one second.

    Makes me wish I was young and wise again. :laugh:

    Again thank you for the constructive comments, what on earth would you do with yourself if you werent being negative and belittling? The poster asked for honest thoughts and I gave mine, I do so sincerely apologise for having a different one than you, Makes me wish I was old enough to use age as my go to insult.

    You can obviously see on my face if I've spotted a good looking hottie

    Well hello there.
    ...but if I were to talk to him (IF I were single) and he turned out to be a totaly doofus...yeah I'd be less likely to consider taking him home!

    Nuts, there's always something...

    "I remember when,
    I remember, I remember when I lost my mind
    But there was something so pleasant about that place
    Even your emotions had an echo
    In so much space

    And when you're out there, out there
    Yeah, I was out of touch
    But it wasn't because I didn't know enough
    I just knew too much

    Does that make me crazy?"

    Ha, well everyone likes a good nut in their lives now and then...


    Btw....doofus does not = wit...doofus as = can't think for themselves, not well spoken, etc.

    Oh, for sure. There's nothing like a good nut to put a smile on your face.

    Errr, so what does doofus mean again? I'm having difficulty thinking for myself at the moment. I am easily distracted. Wait...is that...a banana?
