When we are attracted to a member of the opposite sex, there is always something that draws us to them.  Is it a physical quality or is it something else about her that you are drawn to..What quality in a woman do you find most attractive when you first meet her?  In answering this question, would you mind stating your age.  I am interested in finding out what appeals to men of different ages.

Attraction starts out on the physical plane, but it will fly away quickly if there isn't more. I like attitude, intelligence, integrity, vulerability, competance, character and earthiness.\n\nWow, I'm getting excited just talking about it.\n\nage - 45

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Give me a women  that is confident in herself no matter what she looks like, and that is very sexy.

Looks. She has to be physically attracted to him to even bother with the rest of his qualities. Unless she's a gold digger.

I think the first apperance is what attractts a girl. If the guy is good looking she will have second look and then only will go for the physical part of the body. Of course the physical parts do attract the girls and they feel proud to be with a well built man rather than a skinny person. But then it all depends on the man how he carries himself either physically and mentally.

I think every man would choose a younger girl if they could, lol.  Why do you think all the women in the porno mags and that, models, actresses, etc.; are all within the 18-30 range; have all those 'barely legal' chicks in the mags? (I've never looked at a porno, lol; you can buy them at petrol stations here; or they have adds on TV or billboards for the mags, etc., Kind of hard to miss what it says when it's in like ten million font, lol.)  \nAs for your last comment; because they are closer age wise.  My veiw on age is that it's just a number, nothing more; but not everyone agrees with this.  My husband and I, we have 15 years different between us; we were friends first, then dated; then were together; it wasn't just because of age; we just clicked, could talk for ever, even the first night we met, talked for about seven hours;our record was 18 hours in one 24 hour period, lol (It was a weekend, we had a free day, both of us); we have an extremely strong bond, never fight, are always doing those little things for each other that matter so much; but even with the fact that we both feel that we were made for each other; some people still are shocked when they hear the age difference.  If you want them just for sex, and act on it, then that's a problem.  That's a problem for any age group.  But if it's someone you've truelly fallen for, and she has for you; then it shouldn't be anyone else's problem; it's yours, and her decision.  \nHowever, based on your second comment, sex is pretty high up on that list of yours.  If sex is what you want; I recommend you look closer to your age group, for a girl who more knows life; and is less likely to be coerced into things.  As I mentioned, I think it's normal for any guy to find a younger woman attractive.  What's not normal is using them.  Find someone you're intelectually, mentally, attracted to, someone you just find that click with; then go for it, regardless of the age.  Having any kind of relationship with someone you only find physically attractive is highly likely to end up bad for both you and the girl.  Find the personality, mental, etc, traits you're after; the things that would really denote that special someone to you; the physical is easy to find; it's the rest, the stuff that really matters; that's the hardest parts to find.  You may find you find a younger girl.  But don't rule out any age group.  You rule out a good portion of prospective partners then.

eyes which reveals the quality.\nRest of the things are immaterial.\n\nWy bcoz only quality sustains in the long run of life.\nOnce u attain the quality u will have everything in life.\n\nbut there are still some who look for other as well.. u got it.. right. but don't care this. this attraction is not a lasting one.

I've always preferred older guys and always will, I like their wisdom and life experience and women also mature quite fast so this works well with older guys. I always find it odd when older women go out with younger guys, I really can't comprehend that one.

Making eye contact is a must if you want to be subtle. No intense psycho staring. Size matters to a certain extent, it will depend on the woman. Humor is good, but the type of humor, again depends on the woman. There are no perfect set rules for attracting a woman. Pick someone you admire and try and come close to what he does when hes around women.

Speaking form personal experience, it's both physical and emotional.  I had been bi from about the age of 12, so I have been in relationships with men before, after 5 years of no men I can honestly say that I am happier now and was probably straight up lesbian all along.  I was never in fear of what a relationship with a man would mean, nor am I now.  I just happen to find women much more appealing, who wouldn't want a woman's body?  Plus, the emotional connection is much different.  Women connect with women on a different level, as do guys.  Most of my friends are men, but I only date women.

uhm... good question.  now that i think about it, Eyes attract me 1st.  then pretty much the rest of the face. then bodily appearance.  But most definitely personality.

Take your question and flip it around: do straight men and women find the same sex sexually attractive at all? Does looking at even the prettiest woman or sexiest man repulse them? Is it ever possible for a gay man to seduce a straight man, or for a lesbian to seduce a straight woman?\n\nThe answers are the same for either orientation.

Definitely a good personality.  Looks are always a plus but it's who the person is inside that makes them special and attractive to you.  Many girls can look hot, but only few can possess that certain personality a guy is searching for.  The beauty factor will naturally go up when it is followed by a glowing personality...something know as the halo effect.

Sounds like she has it together, could be a possiblity of her confidence within herself.  A person sometimes is also attracted to a person cause of how they carry themselves.  If she has doubts and worries and expresses them to men it could be a turn off.  A man likes a woman who is sure of themselves.  If she takes pride in who she is and how much she has accomblished so far then that would show to others and therefore appear more attractive.  She needs to find away to cure her depression that does not envolve men and what they may or may not think.  Take time to know yourself and find the things that make you happy and then after that you may find a man who enjoys the same things and share your joy together.

taking the personality out, you didn't leave much, as the physical body is like a flower that has it's prime time and then dies out. good flower has beautiful scent even when it is dry. a plastic or fake flower is useful only for decoration. saying that everybody seeks the physical qualities or standards they set to themselves first before they getting to know the woman they are interested in, every man has a type they are looking for, could be something to do with the hair, some prefer dark hair, others prefer blond while others may prefer brunette. or it could be something to do with the way the woman smile or laughter, some men disregard the facial and hit for the body and even that varies, some men like big bums, others like slim legs, big breasts and these preferences are dynamic, what a man likes in a woman one day, month a year or a decade may not like in another. \n\nif you are a woman I am sure there are men out there who like what you have.

to me its personality first and foremost, with connection a close second. as far as the looks/body part of it ....thats last because everyone in this world changes with time, ages ect. looks and body's fade but the heart and soul of a person is whats its all about. if 2 people truly love one another and share a good connection then time will only enhance their relationship. \n\nif looks/body is what attracts u or is most important, then more then likely u will end up dissapointed in many years to come. \n\nall the best to u in ur search!

My experience(personal and clientelle) suggests that we do not. Although we can appreciate a beautiful face we actually like someone with a figure. We all have features that attract our eye more than others, chest backside, legs etc but truly after the innitial view men quickly revert to the features they prefer and to the personality...men really just want a woman who makes them think they are the one without losing themselves.

Im 27yrs old, and divroced for almost 7mos, the ex messed aorund on me, since I started dating one of the things I have relized is that girls are attracted more to older guys, most of the girls I have dated have been 19-25 not to make myself sound like a man whore or anything, but I think Im more attracted to the younger girls because they tend to want ot have more fun, and make me feel younger when Im with them. Its not about the sex.
