    Take care of your feet! Fugly dirty long toenails are disgusting and it wouldn't kill you to add a pumice stone and some lotion to those things either. Better yet, pay the 30 or so dollars to have someone else do it, pedicures are quite nice!

    Basic "manscaping" and neatness goes a long way. Have a weird stray super-long nipple hair? Get rid of it, but normal hair patterns -- clean, neat, groomed. Hair is something that differs so dramatically from taste to taste, I personally think most men look better with anything from "five o'clock shadow" to "beard", but I know plenty who prefer 100% smooth.

    Also I have to second whoever commented on nails, nothing grosses me out more than someone with too-long toenails or fingernails, especially if they are dirty or otherwise "off" looking. Just thinking about it makes my skin crawl.

    Think about it like this... Would you find a woman attractive if she had big ol' nose hairs attacking your upper lip while she kissed you? Would she be hot if she had eyebrows that climbed halfway up her forehead? Or if you had to scream at her all the time, because she can't hear due to all the hair in her ears?

    I didn't think so. Use some common sense. Trim your face up. Take the extra minute and a half to do your ears, nose, and brows. Take some pride in your manscaping. Especially around the twig and berries. For the *most* part - girls don't like bushwhacking through the forrest. We like things neat, and tidy. Plus - it makes the twig look taller. Bonus for you, and her.

    Now, as far as pits, arms, legs, chest, and back hair go - while I can't understand ANY woman in the world finding back hair attractive - ask YOUR lady what she preferrs.... You don't want to shave off what turns her on...

    I'm working, and this cracked me up. -shuffles back to work-

    Buy new underwear more often than you think you need to. Make an effort to keep the bathroom smelling nice. A lit match will suffice. There's this nifty basket/bin thing in your room. It holds dirty clothes that you want washed. It's called a hamper. Use it.

    Let's just say that I feel incredibly blessed with my choice in partner - and even more so that he also chooses me.

    He is very well groomed and is conscious of maintaining his appearance. He is okay with my particularities in my own grooming and we have discussed at length what we both prefer in our partner. D@mn he's sexy.

    Have you tried plucking? It lasts way longer and no stubble. It hurts a bit but nothing like just under the eyebrow.

    You're going to get just as many answers as there are women... although general good hygiene is an obvious, some women like scruffy dudes, some like super-metro dudes. Some care about their men's fashion, some do not.


    This is about as effective as a woman saying, "Men! Do you like skinny or big girls??"


    Be excellent, brush your teeth and don't leave skids in your drawers, choose a level of personal care that is comfortable and maintainable for your lifestyle, and you'll find the right lady for you.

    no long dirty toenails! and no smelly socks or shoes.

    cut nails - nobody needs long nails.

    and please don't ask your SO to cut your toenails either.

    Good hygiene:

    Clean teeth, hair, well, everything! Good breath is a biggie. I know some guys don't want to wear cologne but yum, I love a good cologne on a man. Jean Paul Gaultier is to die for on a man:) One more thing, just for me personally, I love clean shaven!

    I see a lot of people mentioning ear hair but no one's mentioned ear wax yet. There is not much more disgusting to me than looking over at someone and seeing ear wax "pouring" out of their ears.

    Also, cologne: buy the good stuff or don't even bother. That cheap, knock off crap you pick up at gas stations is nauseating, and the stuff they sell at Abercrombie isn't much better. I prefer a man's natural smell, but if you feel you must then please go easy. Just one, maybe two, pumps in front of you and walk through the cloud. No cologne, no matter how expensive, smells good when you've bathed in it. For me a general rule of thumb is that if I can smell you from three feet away, you've overdone it.

    Hey I don't know what the big deal is? Keep it the way you like it and if you have/meet a woman ask them what they like. Try to see if you can handle it and do that. I like my man the way he is.....all natural hair and he knows if he wants a little extra attention he takes care of that for me for that moment. Not saying I won't please even if there is no attention in that area other than keepin washed :)

    I like a guy that grooms himself. I really don't mind chest hair on a guy that's fine with me leg hair is fine the one thing I don't like is back hair.

    I say do whatever you feel comfortable with. Clean teeth, clean body and clean clothes are assumed. Personally, I like short hair and a clean shaved face. Subtle coogne is nice too. I wouldn't want a man to shave anything below their neck.

    Personally, I LOVE chest hair and manscaping is a must! What I do not find apealing is back hair and uni-brow.

    Speaking as a dude i think it is peculiar to completely shave ur chest unless u r a swimmer, body builder or pro erestler. I prefer to trim my chest hair short. Everything else..bye bye
