"Personal philosophy", including political affiliation and religious beliefs, as produced by a certain educational level and knowledge and wisdom.

Can't outrun me. :shrug:

I like people that are comfortable in their own skin and don't really care that they should act a certain way to fit some sort of role for appearance's sake.

It would have to be artistic creativity for me and also spontaneity and unpredictability is very important, someone who doesn't live their life bounded by pressure or fear, someone who is curious to travel everywhere and lives life for the experience of it.

I'm a socialist. So no, material wealth is not an important requirement for me.

I'm attracted to most any girl who seems interested in me or like she might give ma a chance so I voted for Other


i chose niceness on the poll, but thats how i feel......physical attraction can only take someone so far in the end it comes down to whether or not they like you and you like them

in my experience the hotter the girl the more i dislike her personality, except in some exceptions like my friend Lexi

i dont know really, attractiveness is a combination of almost all of the poll options, choosing one is not possible.
even selecting the most important one is very difficult, as it changes constantly, both depending on the person in question and my own state of mind...

if i am completely honest, the only constant would be the physique, but what part of that is, once again, fluctuating...

Are you meant to tell me seriously with a straight face you don't have better things to do with your time than keep some one amused and entertained ?

Well I do your not that special nor am I.

What do you find most attractive about others?

I've never gone around with a list like that as I don't feel it really works. I've been attracted to girls of different shapes and sizes with a variety of different looks and personalities. There isn't really anything consistent between them other than the fact they are nice people and they are female. Even that is no guarantee of me being attracted to them though.

For those who say we are not fit for relationships a say this it is possible that might be the case for some of us, stuff has not worked out too well for me yet but i know enough aspies that have long term girl friends to tell you it can happen.

some of you out there say you are not fit for one and this might be true right now but that dose not mean you never will be.

So yeah keep smiling

I'm the only one who voted for popularity and sociability!

I don't know why, but that seems to turn me on the most in a man. Maybe because part of my special interests are centered around social interaction. Loving social interaction doesn't mean I'm good at it, but I admire people with social abilities both generally and sexually.

Similarity in mind, personality, interest, ambitions and thinking, If for any attraction has to develop, the physical appearance just gets me some attention at first but it stops there if there's no similarity, that's probably why i 've NEVER liked girls who are much younger than me because they're usually not like-minded. Most of my crushes were considered average-looking by others ...but whatever....

However, those girls i liked who have this similarity often, wait...not often, *always* wanted the opposite character (personality and lifestyle-wise) of what they are, so the opposite of my whole being. It happened every x years, and I have never learned how to fool this.

Maybe it's time to tweak this preference in my mind somehow because it led me to nowhere.

Edited: I added NEVER before 'liked girls'

Yep. I didn't select it cos it would be stupid of me to decline someone I liked because they weren't rich. And, it's highly unlikely I could have a rich guy. :( Maybe upper middle class..


After few years, I bet it would be just middle class....
