    Now, I'm not trying to stir up the crap...I promise.


    But a turn off for me is a woman who thinks she has to have a job and contribute just as much to the bank account as the man. Stay at home mom/home maker, is a honorable and tough profession. Doing something like that would kick my *kitten*.

    But I have no time to procreate OR clean my floors to my anal-retentive standards! No man will ever come between me and my maid.

    :tongue:

    Not to say that I'm against women in the workplace. Far from that too. Heck, I'm looking for a sugar-momma. Just don't care for the "I feel inadequate if I don't make money" mindset.

    My geeky boss married a millionaire doctor/model. Millionaire doctor/model is not a turn-off.

    Rancid breath and messed up teeth. I had a couple of FINE @ss guys I turned down... just because of that. I couldn't picture my mouth on theirs.

    ^^^ I love all of this.

    Umm, do you have highlights and purple contacts? Yea, ya do. Keep walkin' dude. You're suffering.

    Holy ditto. I call them 'important teeth'....and it applies to ALL of them. ;)

    Yeah that is a tough job, but I don't see why it's a turn off if a woman just wants to have a successful career. My motivation to earn a lot of money would be nothing to do with matching or 'beating' my partner's salary, it would have to do with my personal aspirations. Plus, imo, doing what my bf's mother did and be a 'stay at home mum' when both your children are at boarding schools at opposite ends of the country, is not a tough job, it's just doing sweet f.a lol.

    i am completely turned off when someone is arrogant and overly confident. Its a good quality to believe in yourself and have some confidence, but to be so arrogant that you come across better than everyone else is very unattractive to me. I dont need someone to tell me or prove to me that they are great........i want to learn it all on my own :) There is something to be said about being a lil humble :)

    I totally agree, very well said!

    Am I the only woman around here that likes "COCKy" guys?

    I like a confident, cocky @sshole type as long as he's a loveable @sshole, who truly is confident and not just compensating for insecurities

    Ha!

    I posted this later: "Not to say that I'm against women in the workplace. Far from that too. Heck, I'm looking for a sugar-momma. Just don't care for the "I feel inadequate if I don't make money" mindset."

    - addicted to smoking. i don't mind it the person occasionally smokes cigarettes or cigars, but if they're addicted that's a total turn off.
    - this is weird, but I had a crush in high school who one day wore a shirt that said "Grab her booty and pinch." If you say that out loud, you'll realize it sounds like "Abercrombie and Fitch." That was a major turn off.
    - also, being a jerk to people who don't deserve it

    what exactly do you mean by "thinks she has to have a job and contribute?" does that include someone who has a passion for their career and would not be satisfied staying at home? I'm honestly asking, because it's your opinion so you're entitled to it.

    Ego. Confidence is important, but ego = immediate turn-off.
    Sexism. <--probably related to ego
    Lying. <--related to ego because they think I'm stupid enough that they can get away with it.
    Being pedantic. <--definitely related to ego.

    Probably:

    Guys who get more emotional than I do/too clingy
    Guys who try to force their religious beliefs on a person (Nothing against religions, I just don't like when people try and convince me that their belief is the best way to go and I should do it)
    Take no pride in their grammar and other things like someone else already said
    When they'll say "Whatever you want dear" (I don't want to be the one making the decisions all the time)
    Too egotistical .. confidence is one thing, self obsession is another.
