    I've always gone for girls who obviously have mental problems. They're more interesting.

    lol i hear ya, i get the freaky ones with weird obsessive tendencies or odd habits

    Is there a way to change my vote. I went to hit scary and I thing it hit sexy :eek:. Is there a way of changing this or am I screwed!!.:eek:

    Any way my preference is a girl which has some flesh, not Zero!! Imagine skin and bone, starving women in First world country, that is even scarier. :eek:

    in ireland? perish the thought ! :D actually thats spot on. theres nothing sexier than a woman who acts and dresses like a woman. never did like the "ladette" thing. great craic when your on the lash but you'd never go out with a girl like that. its the differences that attract people to each other and while being somewhat brutal looking i find softness and femininity very attractive.

    i love vivacity too, theres nothing worse than looking in a girls eyes and seeing that its like she's died inside. so if shes enthusiastic and playful its a great bonus. plus, and i know im gonna get slagged for this, niceness ! theres just way too many selfish psychos out there. a woman whos actually genuine and caring to everyone is bloody brilliant if ya can find one.




    .....plus big tits :D

    actually ive been tempted by the petite range lately. i used to always go for tall brunettes but there is something wonderful about a petite blonde gazing up at you. brings out all the old male instincts :)

    Oh god that metcalfe fella is like a bloody Ken doll, he does his eyebrows for god's sake thats a major no no in my book.

    Aside from that, my faith in Irish men has been restored, they like the curvy girls not the emaciated look and most of all girls -Smile! According to this thread its the predominantly sexy quality in a woman, meanwhile the girls like the fairly masculine look, good body, nice hair, maintained physique. I think overall the overt masculinity and femininity of the opposite sex is what attracts most people, to be simplistic, the girls want their men to be masculine and the guys want their females feminine. What do yee think?

    Spot on, totally agree with you!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 644 ✭✭✭Mackleton


    Also, (as I ramble on uncontrollably) there is nothing more of a turn on than a guy with a sexy aftershave, like Hugo Boss or some such.

    Had a boss one time and worked in a deli manned entirely by women, now he wasnt much to look at but when he walked past you, you just had to stop to get a covert whiff of his aftershave......mmmmm. We were like putty in his hands I tell you.

    While Im on that scent business, what do guys thinks of women's perfume? Is it a turn on or off? Any particular scent ie. spicy, floral, sweet. Does it have the same aphrodisiac effect on the fellas as aftershave has on some women, me included?

    A woman who is feminine, fit, nicely proportioned anywhere from a size 6 to a 12 , shorter than me, smiles with her eyes, long hair I can run my fingers through, clear skin that's not destroyed with fake tan/too much make-up, a voracious libido, a great kisser, strong, smart, doesn't follow the crowd, kind without being a doormat, interesting and whatever that x factor is that makes you love someone.

    Unfortunately women that meet the above description are in *extremely* short supply... haven't met one in over three years that was single :(

    That depends on how you define femininity. I don't think many guys want a ladette, but as an example i'd prefer one that would give a sport like soccer a go and play it for a bit of fun no matter how bad she was at it than one that would avoid it 'because I might break a nail'.

    One that doesn't make my eye's water :D sometimes women put way to much on.

    As for women, petite girls have always been my favourite, throw in black hair and a bipolar disorder and I'm there.

    Anyone else find the lower back of women sexy or am i just a freak ?

    Totally agree. I cannot stand women who faff around with make up and designer gear to go to the corner shop or wear gigantic shades in mid winter but I think Im in the happy medium zone, I like to pretty myself up for going out etc and love to wear dresses and skirts and heels when its appropriate. Buy Im definately one to give sport ago, quite enjoy the odd rugby or GAA match and am comfortable talking to guys. But sure there are definately extremes of femininity ie ladette to lady Muck.

    whoops


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 269 ✭✭nicolo


    I used to go for like slim lithe girls with smallish boobs (bout 34 b, nice an perky) and big eyes, most of my ex's would be of the audrey hepburn/wynona ryder aperance type but then i met my current girl who is more the angelina jolie body type of big boobs, lovely bum, gorgeous lips and nice legs and resonable slim other then that. and I wouldnt go back to the smaller women now.
    major turn offs include fake tan, i mean come one you look like an umpa lumpa, its never looked real and you know it, im so sick of seeing the terracotta army marching up the street every saturday. also turned off by girls who are obbsessed with appearance, theres nothing hotter then a hot girl slouching around in a pair off boxers and a tshirt, all her foxy curves just stretching the top in all the right places, her not really caring if shes got full make up on the confidence to look know that if she wanted to look hot she could blow you away but choosing to be chilled out in your company. foxy.

    oh yeah turn ons include, love of books (a must) love of music (bigger must) and a love of films (not so important but still). also preferable chilled and smart but above all else funny.

    A sense of humor! :D

    After that nice eyes but I'm not that fussy.

    I like to have a laugh and I'm a pretty smiley person so if he can make me laugh I'm happy.

    Anything after that's a bonus!:)

    Well, I found my ideal man in my husband who is intelligent, kind, thoughtful, protective, funny, loyal, loving, we also have similar but slightly different interests and complement one another, we are both also really into family. He also has the most amazing eyes and mouth. He is very good looking but looks were never an issue, I would have fallen for him for his personality alone.

    non-irish girls.

    sense of humour and intelligence...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,485 ✭✭✭Thrill


    Beyond personality?

    Eyes, neck and ass.

    Money would be a nice added bonus.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 644 ✭✭✭Mackleton


    Neck? I am intrigued. Do tell...

    I find long slim necks sexy plus there great for getting your hands around when your losing an argument.

    I like a tall man, 6'1 plus because i'm almost 6 foot myself and these men are often hard to find:( He must like to travel, read have an interest in current affairs and sport. dark hair and passion is good too.
    I hate it when guys have issues with their mothers, i.e idolise/ hate them. Met a fella recently, ticked all the boxes but then told me his mother was a contol freak and he'd no life because he lived at home. I ran.

    Apart from personality la la la.

    I love the side view of a woman witha lovely tummy, I also love straight long hair.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 644 ✭✭✭Mackleton


    When you say lovely tummy do you mean ample tum or toned?

    Why is every guy looking for a woman who is smaller than them?! Had to dance with a small guy last week funniest thing ever! thank god I was drunk! Anyway, I think a guy that is well built and has a bit of stubble (not a big huge bum on their face) is super.
