Well poo, I'm screwed either way! haha
Exactly why people should focus on improving their health and self esteem and not what someone "expects" them to look like.

Haha I love how everyone is like 'You can always change your body' :P this is first impression we're talking about guys.... I'm pretty surprised by the results because...most girls I know go with the "body" option...
Most guys with better bodies (I don't mean skinny, I mean lean muscular) look good... if I saw a guy at the mall with a super hot body I'd turn my head to look at him....face...it really never stands out when in public (especially if over weight)!!
A lot of my guy friends chose the 'face' option.... though. And a lot of them said..."a girl with a six pack is gross, a girl who is too muscular is gross'"- which I think is outrageous bcoz I think girl-sixpacks r the sexiest thing on the planet!!!!!!
This would be an example of a guy with nice face, but not a nice body (does not necessarily have to be over weight for that!)

I thought my ex had the complete package...nice face..nice body...but it was his eyebrows that really took ahold of me. I never saw him as a heavy guy..I always thought he was absolutely gorgeous...he thought he was heavy..and lost 50 pounds. His body changed..but he still had that face I had fallen in love with. So, you have to love the face...because the body can change.0

i have to say face, because yes, you can improve the body if you want to work on it, but if you dont have good facial features what are you gonna do about it? nothing! unless you are Michael Jackson! seriously tho.....if you are obese, your face aint gonna be cute anyways, lol0

It was a JOKE dear, I'm happily taken and he loves eeeverything about me. I'm starting to as well!0 -
face face face
body can always be worked on
if a man is ugly, he's just ugly0 -
99%? I have no idea who these mysterious girls are, but in my experience it's mostly about the face. As long as a guy isn't really obese most girls don't care about the body. In the real world guys care way more about a woman's body than a woman does about a man's body. At least that's my experience.Most girls I've had this conversation with (99%) go with body!! haha although my strange roomate likes some extra pounds on her man...but that;s her thing.
As for me personally, I am also all about the face. I need a good looking mug. A nice body is great, but not required. However, if my man starts putting on pounds I will suggest he get his butt to the gym. A little extra padding is fine, but I don't want to have to worry about his health.0 -
I know I was attracted to my now boyfriend for his 6'1 rugby bod (nd his dimples!!)
... I however when when met him was not over weight but I did not have a 'hot body' or anything....being small and hot is not the same thing guys...you can be a girl wearing size 12 and still have a hotter than one wearing a size 8... in my opinion.
He always says he was attracted to me because of my face though...
haha...dunno weather to take that as a compliment or serious insult :P 0 -
Face. plain and simple. No matter how hawt the body may be, if i ain't attracted to what i may be staring at while havin sex..... it ain't happening, lmao. I've dated all sizes of men and it was always the face that attracted me at first. A nice body is just a plus.0

A face full of personality. I am never, ever attracted to your basic good-looking man though. I need something different...something that probably most people wouldn't notice. I'm a weirdo. 0

is it bad that after i read your profile, and found out that you're finishing med school your hotness scale went up through the roof in my book?0 -
It's double sided. First off I say face. A body can always trim and lose weight, gain weight, etc...
You can't fix a face that fell down the ugly tree and hit the branches on the way down. I've known plenty of really cute people (myself included) who just need to lose the weight and the whole package is back.
That being said, some people REALLY do lose the "look" of their face when they're too skinny or too fat.0 -

dunno what kinda sex your havin sista....the most important reason I date fit men is because I don't wanna see no jiggle in bed (I'm sure you have to look at more than just face!)...is it bad that after i read your profile, and found out that you're finishing med school your hotness scale went up through the roof in my book?
I guess that is a compliment? Thanks!!0 -
futurefitgirl, i hope you realize you are getting a skewed sample base on the forums.
the ladies answering are clearly going to judge the face as more important, since they'd rather be judged by the same standard from their male counterpart.
give this a try on, say, bodybuilding forum (there are plenty of women there also) and compare the results.
just saying...0 -
ill go with face...0

Personality??
Thankies! I don't care what your face or body looks like. If you are a boring hot piece of muscle, I don't care. Give me someone who is honest, respectful, kind, genuine. I don't care what they look like.

Yeah. Those people have nice faces. I always assumed that the ONLY thing guys are looking at is the bod, because I always felt like all the skinny girls (regardless of looks) had a man, and the chubbier ones didn't. Well, me at least. But then my best friend was always saying, yeah, that girl is skinny, but she's super ugly! You have her beat by a mile. And I was like, um, really? Because isn't beauty all in the weight? I had a skewed view of the world. Now I definitely notice faces more when assessing my relative attractiveness with other women, although I still think guys value thin more than beautiful!
I'm not skinny and I have no problems attracting guys with my pretty face....0 -
Because somebody reminded me where my stance TRULY lies:
Looks account for something. We all know it. However I do find people way more attractive as I get to know them. Suddenly, they become way sexier because I know WHO they are as opposed to their aesthetics. So yes looks do count, but sometimes body/face become seriously irrelevant. Those are my two cents, hopefully not everyone in the world is truly as shallow as society shows us to be.0 -

I was pretty shocked at the response....Like I said most my girlfriends say face is not that important (most people are pretty average faced no offense...plus what someone might consider a hot face another might not) ...suppose depends on the individual!0 -
Body, no question about it. You may not be born with a pretty face, but you sure as heck work yourself to a very attractive body!0

For me it is face. I don't really care too much about body, looks in general aren't important but a nice smile, eyes or facial hair are always things that grab my attention in the opposite sex. I don't find either one of those people to be attractive either.
That being said, Isn't part of us becoming healthier people also mean building a good self image? I think we have enough standards to live by thanks to the media and Hollywood. To set standards of having a perfectly sculpted body and perfect face isn't really a healthy outlook to me. People that strive to achieve that become obssessed and end up like Heide Montag. Beauty is truly skin deep...
This for sure!!!!!!! What might be attractive to you may not be for me. Beauty is in teh eye of the beholder!0 -
FACE! you can always improve the body!
Agree! I fell in love with my boyfriend's face before the body. His smile melted me away and I love looking into his eyes! I didn't even notice he had muscles until my friend pointed it out. He has bigger muscles now so they are hard to miss. I love his body, but his face is my favorite! 0 -

Gotta go with....drumroll please....
The body! I had a debate over this with a beautiful woman who didn't take care of her body. She said how could you stare at that wreck of a face every day? I laughed then told her..the woman may have a 5 in the face but a 10 body equals 15 which turns her into an 8 when you round up.
Also health plays a roll. I want an active woman who can keep up. Personally I want for them to be both fine with a nice tight body that way I don't have to choose.0
