Physically unattractive

clingy
strange/weird/nuts/crazy etc
sleeping with your mates or just other ppl lol
stupidity
smoking (for non smokers)

3 if the things that seem obvious to you don't bother me much...

Anyway, There are two things that annoy me. If you are too skinny, I get turned off. Eat some damn food will you. The other is really bad manners. Other than that, not much bugs me.

--Arguing about unimportant things
--Assuming that every male wants to have sex with you so you develop an attitude when they're polite or respectful
--dragging us window shopping for hours

amen to that one ... woman do have the mindset, the only thing guys want is sex.. and although very few men will reject it.. some men actually want to have AN ACTUAL relationship with the woman.

i guess you can materialism, shreeking laughs, and talking about past boyfriends as bothersome too.

At first glance....
1. manners, are big, if a woman is interested but openly rude with others or me... yikes
2. the feminist monologues, no man in his right mind wants to be subjected to a political discussion where he is the **stard and the root of all evil ...
3. the ex, if your past is present it can be rightly seen as a reason to run

Do you drink? Often (>3 times/week)

That pretty much does it for me.

OCDness in general. This can include being overly neat, picky, etc. I dated this one girl who had to fold her clothes before getting into bed for sex...that was just nuts.

Being constantly critical (especially in front of others).

Lack of self confidence with an un-willingness to push the comfort envelope a millimeter.
Women who need to ask huge support groups of friends and relatives
before they will make a decision on matters.
Some women never see a movie alone, never eat at a fine restaurant alone, etc., etc.

Risk allows us to evolve and grow.
Those that never go anywhere new, never eat anything different, never read anything controversial,
never expand their knowledge, are stagnant and dead inside.

Ohhh yeah, hard core Vegans. Big turnoff.
I like tofu, sushi, bean sprouts, boca burgers, and a gazillion other things
that don't have meat in them on a regular basis.
But don't verbally assault me when me and my buddies have full on BBQ
with top notch steaks, pork chops, ribs , wild game, seafood and beer on my porch.

OK

let me explain to you WHY women act like that

I have met SO many guys who act like they are nice decent blokes

we talk, have a normal converation about normal non sexual things like work, hobbies - whatever - NORMAL stuff

then out of the blue you get hey want to come over to my place (followed by comments that make it obvious the guy wants you to come over to have sex with him) or on night this guy I had talked to on msn about totally normal non sexual stuff - out of the blue asks if id be ok with watching him wank on his web cam

I have met SO many guys online who seemed to be normal guys who were wanting to meet women for friendship, maybe more if things worked out well, who seemed lke nice guys then suddenly out of the blue they start sending messages asking what naughty stuff i want to do to them or what knickers i am wearing and stuff like that - this is guys that i havent even got to the stage of meeting in person. So if you get a woman who thinks you are just out for a shag DONT blame us, blame all the seedy ****ers out there who have no respect for us - they are giving men in general a bad name

and for me I am now at the stage that even if i am having a nice conversation with what seems like a nice guy - if he asks for a meeting I feel that I have to make it clear we are not going to be meeting for sex, because I have encountered so many men online who seemed to be normal guys then came across all sleezy.

1. constantly talking about previous men in their lives and/or
comparing you to them; start fresh, everybodys different
2. asking a guy after two weeks of dating to pay most of your bills
3. ecsessive baggage from previous relationships, doing this or not
doing that cause some previous shmoozer acted like an idiot
4. clean private parts so tuna does'nt become my favorite smell

For those men who are "turned off" by a woman who are over the size of 8/10 are shallow, thankfully though not all of them are:

Maykitten, I suspect he knows that. In North America the average dress size is 14! What programme were you suggesting? I thought the name of the game here was to find a mate you love and respect, not go bang some big chicks 'cause they are common as dirt, but whatever.

Things that are Major turn offs?

- Use of poor catch phrases such as "Looking for an honest man" et al.
- Inability to be physically supportive. Not sex. But the stuff from touching to PDA's
- Foul language
- Her organizational skills are so high she becomes routinely inflexible.
- And the most common one, saying one thing and doing another but expecting her partner to always talk the talk and walk the walk.

Women that sit and voice their anger about men and what they do all the time.How men are pigs,liars,or that have that purpetually disappointed look on their face.Or they thhink they can treat man like shit and get away with it.If there is a girl that I may be interested in,I will watch them interact for a few,it's easy to tell by their non verbal communication.

One I personally struggle with is assuming people.... the ones that think they can judge a book by its cover....
Serious drug abuse, some bizarre sexual references.... bad ...

The past 3 women I've dated have found the urge to criticise me constantly out of nowhere, on a frequent basis. A few times a week. It ususally starts off with "No offense, but..."

Telling them this annoys me is usually met with "You can't handle criticism!" or "I'm just trying to be helpful."

I no longer have much of a tolerance for that.


The other one is not a major one, but I have never dated a non-picky eater or a vegetarian. "I don't eat meat, fish, spicy things, greens, fruit. I want to eat mac and cheese for life!"

Throwing out perfectly good food
Opening up packages on the shelves when we're out shopping

Two new ones thanks to POF:
Begging for sex on the first date
Introduces herself to my family way before I'd want them to meet

1. Shallow

2. Unhealthy habits...I'm not talking about splurging every once in a while and eating a whole cheesecake, I couldn't pick on that for obvious reasons...as one who could not cast the first stone on that one. However, being 200 pounds overweight, not having any energy, claiming you are on a diet (when its more like a seafood diet). Drinking more than on the weekends. Smoking more than the Marlboro man.

3. No common sense

4. Low intelligence

5. Racist and or bigoted

6. Religion freak, thinking yours is the only true way

7. Always angry

8. You flip out major psycho whacko for 7-14 days every month during "that" time.

9. Lazy

10. Slob

11. Judgemental

12. Poor Hygeine

13. Hypocrite

14. Won't let the baggage from the ex go.

15. Catty

16. Manipulative

17. So uptight you have to oil the crack of your butt or else you'll squeak worse than the tin man

18. Constantly analyzing things 24/7. Stop asking me what I'm thinking, typically I'm not or if I am, I want to think about it before talking about it.

"Whatcha thinking?"

"I'm pondering what the effect on Picasso and Van Gogh would have been if they drank absinthe and smoked weed while painting"

"Huh?"

"See...never mind..."

19. NOT eating at least some of my cooking and not liking to try new things food wise.

20. Being freaked out and closed minded and not liking travel.

21. I'm a sock dropper...always have been always will be...if my parents couldn't beat it out of me, neither will you...let it go...

22. Low sex drive. If I wanted little to no sex, I'd have stayed married.

23. Jealous

24. Having more than 3 nipples.


Cheers!
