If I don't find a guy attractive (and no, he doesn't have to be hot), I'm not going to want to date him.
Seconded! Why kid yourself into thinking "well maybe the attraction will grow with time"?! Usually I will find a guy attractive and he will become even more attractive to me as I spend time with him. Seldom is a guy "ok" and then becomes attractive to me. There must be that initial attraction to jump-start the getting to know you phase. | |

Posted: 3/7/2007 6:48:44 PM | I am niether shallow nor inconsiderate...
I know what I want and will accept nothing less!
This makes me particular maybe picky, but for me its the whole package, brains, wit, physique, libido, stamina, strong, feminine...
Knowing what I want does not make me shallow, just lonely, cause I wont settle! 
And I dont think this is gender specific! | |

I learned early on that a less attractive person (physically) becomes much more attractive over time as I get to know him or her. I don't consider myself shallow, I just know what I like and what I can deal with in another person. | |

I think this is a person-by-person issue - not a gender one. Making it a gender issue is a sweeping generalization and will definitely affect interactions with the opposite sex.
That being said, I do find men to be more inconsiderate than women. That may be 'cause women seem to be trained to be nice... Of course, this is all my opinion and based on personally experience. I've been verbally insulted and criticized by men far more often than women. | |

Let me define that... please.
I want a woman with medium to large breasts, hour glass figure, deep blue eyes
and long blonde hair... but here's the thing. My ex used to laugh at me when I
told her I thought Whoopi Goldberg was attractive. Why? I saw her in interviews and there was something about her... I can't even say for sure what it was but she did it for me. Is she hot? Blonde? Point is that my mind tells me I want. What we
all except as the attractive perfect woman is not always what we really want.
Yes women want the tall, dark and handsome guy with the 6-pack stomach...
nothing wrong with that... is it who she is really attracted to? Personally myself...
I'll put myself up against any great looking guy like that. Psssstttt... no problem.
Go figure eh ;-) | |

I hate to disparage either sex, but I think men are more blunt and disconnective than women when it comes to relationships. The bluntness can be intentionally rude, or naively inappropriate. And, I think women, as a rule, are more gossipy and non-confrontive. They won't tell you if something you're doing or not doing is bothering them, they'll tell someone else. lol I think the pattern is a socialized one...and of course, not all men and women are stereotypical of their gender.
When it comes to online dating, I think anonymity allows people to be rude without many consequences for it. A lot of the rude people you meet here probably wouldn't dare treat people this way in the real world, IMO. | |

Posted: 3/13/2007 11:53:21 AM | | I think that women are just as shallow as men. Why would you even consider dating someone that you are not attracted to? Is that not a recipe for disaster and a broken heart? On the flip side, I think that you can develop an attraction for people that others may not consider 'drop dead georgeous' if that person has an attractive personality, but there has to be something physical there to begin with. | |

Posted: 3/13/2007 1:12:11 PM | OP, all people are individuals so men and women can all be shallow to the same extent. Probably all of us go through a period when we're young where we think good looks equals a good person...then when we find out that it doesn't always, we learn from it. Good thing beauty is in the eye of the ebholder, as that means many who may not look good to one person may look good to someone else ;) But add in the unrealistic images that the media gives us, and it's no wonder people grow up thinking good looks equals good everything else...the problem is, some people 'airbrush' themselves just like the media does to supermodels, and only time will tell you if their inside is as good as their outside.
I've found that many poeple I might not have considered very good looking from across the room, were better looking than anyone else I knew once I spent time talking with them. Intelligence, humor, consideration, etc., more than makes up for less that 'star quality' looks...and actually enhance a person more than any plastic surgery would. | |

Posted: 3/13/2007 2:11:44 PM | | What one person considers shallow (ie: height) does not mean the next person will consider that same prefernce as shallow. Looks matter, but good news is that everyone prefers something different! I don't prefer the same as my best friend, nor she with me. We all have different ideas, different tastes....nothing to do with gender, age, weight....it's all about presonal preference......Looks only get you through the door anyways...you need something substancial to keep you in the room eh. | |
