The face of an attractive female has a short lower jaw,which is a sign of low level of testosterone,and fleshy lips, an indicator of estrogen, the female sexual hormone. A high level of estrogen and a low level of testosterone indicates fertility. She must have attractive skin and healthy hair too.
Yes, looks do matter to an extent. Of course you're not gonna go for someone who you don't find attractive at all, but the way I look at it is, looks fade as you get older, so if that's all your looking for, don't look for a relationship. When you're old and saggy, if you don't get along with the person, it's not gonna work. You gotta think about the present and the future and if you're gonna be able live with that person for the rest of your life.
If you’re buying a painting or a photo for your wall, what it looks like is important. But if you’re looking for a long term relationship looks just aren’t that important. I was watching the Bob Newhart show one time and Tom Posten had found a girlfriend that he liked to do things with. So after a while she asked him if he was thinking about asking her to marry him. He said, no. She was upset and asked why? He said that love and marriage was a little like buying a hat. You go into the store and try them on. Look in the mirror and check them out. You try on the most expensive and maybe the cheapest, maybe the one that everyone says is the prettiest or the one they say looks best on you and there is nothing wrong with any of them, they are just not your hat. Then you try one on, you look in the mirror, you tilt it a little and there it is, your hat. That’s what everyone is really looking for!
Everything...all...nothing...don't matter...shouldn't matter... These extreme dualities can truly be responsible for a life of sadness and misery.
Good-looking people do attract me. But IMO, if I don't get along with the person or admire them, or like being around them, chances are I won't be that attracted to them (I will recognize their attractiveness, but not be attracted to them in a sexual way. Makes sense?) I get more attracted to people the more I get to like them. I think if you love somebody, you won't care what they look like. It's all about the person inside for me, and I'm usually attracted to those I care about, because theirs is the face of someone I love. I'm more attracted to people with self-confidence, who look and feel good in how they dress, and who are clean and groom themselves well.
It's an absolute mystery to me how I landed a man that is so attracted to my chunky body, but I would not want to be with someone if I didn't feel perfectly comfortable/unashamed/desired naked with the lights on.
Looks aren't everything, that's for sure! I need to be attracted to someone to be in a relationship with them, but attraction may come from something else than looks. Unless they're totally repulsive, I don't really care about their physical appearance. I rarely find someone repulsive either, most people have something attractive to them. I don't know if that's because of my animist beliefs, but I never really cared about looks. Also, being very appealing physically when I was younger, a lot of guys asked me out just for my looks and I could feel it. They didn't care about my personnality, my interests, my beliefs, i.e. who I am, they just wanted to have the pretty girl hanged to their arm like a trophy. It hurted, I didn't feel loved for who I really am and promised myself not to focus on looks when looking for love.
While looks are nice, etc i would rather personality over looks. I dont care if a guy has lots of pimples or whatever but if he is some sex-crazed perv then no way... Just my opinion.
