    Or... or is your type for example a personality trait, "neat", "jerk", "crazy", "vegetarian" etc?

    If we are talk about dating or attraction wise: I like men who are educated, dress well, and have a good body. I don't like skinny men; however, I do like muscles lol Personality is a must. I prefer introverts with a sense of humor.

    I don't think I have a type. I've dated plenty of different body and personality types. I think that it just comes down to how it all fits together. Sometimes someones intellect will make up for a decreased sense of humour, and vice versa, that sort of thing.
    But some generalizations are, I look for humour, intelligence, honesty, nerdiness, attentitiveness, and sex appeal.

    My type - petite. I never wanted to date a woman over about 5'2".

    I've been married to a 5'9" woman for 23 years. She likes to wear strappy heels and tower over me. Make 'er feel like a trophy wife. Which she basically is. She's hot, and I look like a balding troll.

    How the hell did that happen? I like 'em petite! I do, dammit!

    As long as she't not: racist, crazy, needing to fill a void, or a prissy brat, I'm game. Yes, I just described the last few disasters..

    It's always been older, a bit on the heavy side, and shorter (that doesn't take much, since I'm 5'10"), with bonus points for dark hair and light eyes and I *love* chest hair.

    I think some of that's changed since I've gotten fit and healthy though - I am pretty sure that having someone who is physically active is going to be a definite MUST when I am ready to date again... someone tall might be nice, too.

    Other than that, I don't think I have a type.

    I don't really have a "type" I just want someone who is my best friend, respects me, will always be there for me and who I can talk to about anything. Oh wait, I already have him.

    My type as always been tall stocky dorks. The sweeter and more shy they are the better. Not to say I have not been caught up in the "duche" factor but hey we all make mistakes right. My type has never been preppy princess guys either. Made that mistake once!

    Usually older.. not super muscular but not over weight either. Nice teeth, average height (usually not over 5'10" as I am super short). Facial hair, chest hair - not crazy hairy. A good sense of humor is necessary, and good teeth..

    I've dated a lot of different kinds of people: whites, blacks, hispanic, pacific islander, filipino...I don't have a color preference.

    I must say I prefer tall guys...I'm 5'9 (6ft with heels and big fro) but other than that, if he respects me, my family, opens doors for elderly people, and makes me laugh, I'd say he has a good chance with me.

    I agree with you on everything but the height! Chest and facial hair is so cute!

    Smart, kind, gentlemen, funny, has a great smile, likes being outdoor (bonus points for loving the beach), likes to try new things, like someone said above not racist, especially since I'm open to any guy of any race, likes to hold conversations, and some more things but I'm definitely all for a great personality!

    I like my men tall. I am 5'11" so makes me feel like a GIANT. And I like a guy who is stocky and manly. My friends call my type the "lumber jack" because I also love beards and a nice set of teeth! I like a guy who is hilarious, sweet, and gets along with pets. Yep. That's my type.

    Taller than me, dark hair, I prefer dark skin too, but not a requirement. Has to like similar music. I tend to go for the introverted type, probably because I'm really extroverted and I like to talk a lot. They have to have some things in common with me. I like green eyes, but like I said with the dark skin, it's not a requirement (my boyfriend has brown eyes and they're really pretty, too! :D) Intelligence. Somebody that I can hold a conversation with and speaks well for the most part. They have to have some aspirations. I really don't want a dead-beat. In both women and men, I prefer androgynous faces. I think that's it!

    Here's a picture of my boyfriend, Alex!

    I have always gone for older men. Now that I am in my 40's I think I am going to go after a man in his early 20's. :laugh:


    Seriously though- tall, blonde hair, blue eyes & outgoing is my attraction. Married a short, dark brown hair, brown eyed introvert!

    My only type is "confident" physically I am attracted to many types but insecurity irritates me...
