What do you look for in the opposite sex?

Talk about just about anything else that is non-gaming here, but keep it clean

Matching on a ethics/philosophical level was much more important and someone who could understand, or at least tolerate, my bizarre humor was another must. Physically the only large turn off was tattoos, I don't know what it is but tattoos do absolutely nothing for me.


I was about to go make a topic on that one day, but now that you mentioned tattoos, I don't like that for some reason, it's like you mark yourself. I don't want to alienate anybody but when I see women with those butterfly tattoos on their ankles or feet, it repels me.

Whooph, this blew up.

I get where a lot of you come from, and what a lot of you are saying. I noticed one more thing today, but I don't really want to say it. :oops: Going to anyway for the sake of discussion...

My family, over the years, has shown me their morals, views etc. And one I get from my grandparents on both sides, including my mother's side, which is generally more open about this stuff, is that they want me to marry a white girl. I'm white, in case it isn't obvious. I guess their pushing and prodding over the years has molded me to look at that, and, looking at what appeals to me, I don't really have much like for women of other colors, ethnicities, etc.



Away from the ackward now...

I've lately talked to a lot of girls, and man, I'm getting really tired of 'flighty' girls. The kind that seem to be cool, then run off and start dating a guy, then something happens, and then they're on another guy, etc. They just can't stay put. I don't really mean a slut, which I don't like either, but a girl that just can't stay with a person. It bothers me.

I'm finding that I prefer more, err, I'm not sure of the word. I liked filled out girls, but I don't want them pudgy. I don't know how to put it. One girl I know, she has a great pair of tits, but damn, she is pudgy. Not fat, but a little roly poly. I don't like that.

I like shorter girls, I want to say its more of a mental, bigger and stronger thing. I'm not sure though, I just do.

Okay, all for now.

As far as I know, one is gay. That doesn't qualify as 'a lot' except that there are so few females on the site.

I know there are 2. And there's like 3 or 4 women who post here total.

I think there's more than 4. It's hard to tell, because you're all just screen names and avatars to me.

If we are talking instantaneous attraction, there are two qualities that get me most: humor and (humble) intelligence. I find myself drawn like a magnet to people with either one, in relationships as well as friendships. I love cleverness and want to be an audience for those sorts, but I also love quiet smart-types who express themselves only as I earn their trust.

Also, having dark brown eyes doesn't hurt.

The biggest turn-offs are arrogance, meanness, and poor treatment of previous romantic partners. If you're known for being a player at the deliberate expense of other peoples' feelings, I will not consider dating you, not to mention lose some respect for you as a person.

I should say that when I started college, I thought I was doomed. Then I joined the science fiction/fantasy club, made 90% of my friends there, developed a crush on someone while playing D&D, and wound up marrying him. It was great.

Well.. I love a man in polo shirts.. My preferences change based on whom the person is. I'm pretty girly, so usually, I like a man that is a little more on the masculine side. Tall, Dark, and Mysterious is good too.. He HAS to like videogames, or at least have some interest in nerdy things.. :P

That was a nice video. Always good to see open minded people like that. Mutilation is pretty horrible and it really should stop, especially to babies who have no say in the matter.

If you are old enough to properly decide to mutilate yourself, that's fine. Just stop doing it to defenseless babies. I am honestly blown away how it's not illegal to mutilate a baby's penis.
