lol, toolgirl and gf, it is so true, that you all do look very sexy when just waking up in the morning. i don't know, maybe its the innocence of just waking up and the vulnerability of it all, but somehow everymorning that i wake up next to a girl i care about, i think she's very beautiful and love her that much more

Whenever I wake up with the woman that I love, I look at her and I see a very beautiful being resting, looks so innocent and yes very sexy...so sexy that I get turn on. I move closer to smell her sweet scent while brushing gently her $^&*# - what a way to start the day.

When you're in love with the woman, you see beyond her outer shell. So no matter how the woman looks, she always sexy and beautiful.

there really hasn't been anything helpful so far, but I appreciate the responses!... the girls here fail to mention "popularity" which could also mean "social skills" but again...its easier for good looking people...what i'm trying to show is that girls really only like guys for their looks in the beginning and if they have a good personality, then that's boyfriend material...but looks COME ABOVE everything for girls...I can be the most entertaining, thoughtful, and caring person but since I don't have looks, my relationships cap out at the "friend zone." I think guys are the same way, but it really hurts sometimes... and I'm talking about getting decent looking chicks here...I mean unattractive chix understand that they can't choose by looks and go after other things (i'm unaccepting of my own unattractiveness and place on the social ladder)... ugly people might say they are more likely to find happiness but then again, good looking people get looks and personalities... and remember, different people have different tastes so attractiveness is pretty subjective....so i hope I didn't offend anyone...but hoped to provide a painful reality check at how carnal people really think... i wish i wasn't messed in the head :p

in an ideal AT world, ppl who are good with computers would be the most coveted since its a very functional tool...but this is wildly unrealistic since some subconsciously correlate looks with "genetic fitness"...one could take this from an evolutionary standpt and say that good looking ppl are more fit...more likely to have successful offspring and therefore transmission of genes...but then some say that ppl are way past such primal means of mate selection

No, they're not anomalies. Women are fare more forgiving when it comes to physical appearance.

Pamchenko, primal means of mate selection used to be about who was the strongest and could kill the other guy to get the woman. Looking good would of had very little influence in Darwin's theory of survival of the fittest.

I think its well established that that e_mc_2 is my ideal man. Specially since I'm marrying him. The thing about love is it normally finds you when you are least expecting it. Its weird I get these looks from girls all the time.. you can tell they are thinking ... how did she end up with him. E is a better looking man than I am a woman. Most women would be insecure about that but I know that isn't what he cares about. We got to know each other so well online before we ever met each other (3 months infact) that what clicked so well when we met was our true selves not our outter appearances. Neither of us expected anything to really happen with us so we let our guards down and were ourselves and I think we both knew by the end of our first date that we were it for each other. In fact I told him on our third date that I was going to marry him. It was actually kind of nice being that he didn't run for the hills like most men would have. So I guess it all worked out for the best. I used to have this physical charecteristics list in my head of what my Ideal guy would be like ... you know what .. he didn't look a thing like E ... and now I can't imagine ever being remotely interested in anyone but E. So I'm having to agree with E's post ... just be yourself ... because wouldnt it be a shame for someone who might love you that way miss out because they think you are something else. Plus stop looking ... I swore off men the day before E finally convinced me to go out with him :)

BTW, the wear down theory worked for me. Just keep asking the girl you want until they give up or give a damn good reason. Sweet_Robin, finally got so tired of me asking that she finally went out with me. Confident persistance was my tactic. Not to overbearing but just enough to slowly wear her down.

pamchenko,

I do not go for popularity at all. I tend to like more unique personalities, men that simply appeal to me. Popularity has nothing to do with it.

GF...

And do not lie to me and tell me I look sexy at 6 am with my hair sticking up on top of my head, and my makeup running from the night before because I forgot to wash it off, I know you are lying!

It's not a lie. I spent a week in Sarah's house, &amp; in all honesty the times I thought she looked the very best were late at night after her shower, when she had no makeup on &amp; was wearing her glasses instead of contacts. She doesn't understand why I think that, but she believes me.

I don't go for looks in a man, I go for personality and intelligence. Actually, I have found that I have a thing for what most women would call nerdy. I do not want a man that I have to compete with for the mirror. ;)

Lol .. E is right ... I turned him down for a solid 3 months ... finally one night I got tired of him asking so I said yes just to get him to stop asking .. then spent 3 days trying to figure out how to get out of the date ... couldnt think of a nice way so I went out with him ... and it changed my world :) I will always treasure his persistence and thank god for it. I also find his intelligence to be a very sexy thing ... I will never forget when we started dating how amazed he was that he had found a woman he could make out with one minute and discuss the theories of physics with the next. When its right its right ... and you will know it ... I will keep my fingers crossed for you .. There is no feeling more incredible than the feeling of being reunited with the other half of your soul...

I'm really happy for those hitched couples out there ... really :) thing is about &quot;being yourself&quot;...I think people should be willing to improve themselves if they want the one they love, and that means changing yourself...ppl don't accomplish things by sitting on their butt complaining :)

back to evolution argument, someone (i dunno who) correlated qualities that make someone physically attractive
for example : weight...someone who is not overweight stands less of a chance of developing heart disease and survive to the age of being able to reproduce and raise their offspring...while most ppl don't thk this way, it might be an instinctual part of our personalities...I mean, it helps us understand why certain qualities are attractive...its all about fitness from a genetic standpt...

In a lot of cultures being skinny is considered unattractive. Being skinny often means that a person is sick or doesn't get enough food. Therefore being &quot;bigger&quot; implies that you're healthy and that you can provide for and nurture offspring.

Attractiveness does not have so much to do with genetics or evolution, it rather depends on what culture you live in. An overweight woman in our western culture may be just the ideal woman in a different culture.
