    Are you big on looks?

    Thoughts?

    I do count the guy's looks in when scoping them out but it's not A BIG factor for my relationships. I would rather date an average guy with a great personality over a hot guy with no personality.

    if you're a guy, looks and sex are the most important components of any relationship.....but not necessarily in that order..

    INCORRECT. The beautiful marry the rich. Lol.

    Unless the beautiful were already rich, at which point they just try to keep their genes pristine. Subconscious eugenics ftw. Go talk to all the couples out there that can't have kids and solicit college women (blonde, skinny, no health problems need only apply) with tens of thousands of dollars for their eggs.

    So much for the idea that ugly guys can get good- looking girls if they just master "The Game."

    A girl has to have a sense of humor for me, otherwise it gets old, fast.

    I think looks always have to factor in there. I don't trust a relationship where there is not some type of physical attraction.

    Obviously, that doesn't matter if you're inebriated. :)

    Well too bad for them since I set my account to not receive emails.. :)

    We are genetically wired to choose a mate based upon physical appearance.

    The things men find attractive (hips, breasts etc....) are signs of a good baby carrier/carer

    The things women find attractive (strong, dark, handsome) are signs of a provider that could go out and kill food and protect them.

    I also think the internal need for a provider is why beautiful women will go for ugly rich guys.

    I'm really shallow and date based on looks. It's why I never find anyone worth keeping.

    And yet people fall in love with others who don't rank high on any of those scales. So what do we do with that?

    Everyone has a predisposition to judge someone on their looks... if they say they don't they are either lying or legally blind.

    Plus you have to take into consideration personal preference, what's attractive to one person may not be attractive to another person.

    Looks are what peaks my interest, but if there's no brains behind the brawn, I would rather pass on keeping them around for long.

    Smart and funny keeps me hooked.

    The exception to that rule is people who meet online... then its the personality that hooks you but unfortunately the interest isn't always peaked physically and it causes lots of stress. (cause you continually wonder why in the world can't you be attracted to them too!!)

    I would say looks are usually like a resume (they get you in the door) and personality is the interview that gets you the job.

    Hot guys are good for dating. "In the community," it would be hard to keep hot guys monogamous. (Not that there's anything wrong with non-monogamy.)


    Intelligent, nice guys are good for long-term stuff.
