What kind of girl do you like? I've always thought that guys are attracted to girls who wear designer shoes and are super feminine. I really wanted to be that stereotype to attract guys but part of me wonders if I should just be myself. I'm into video games like Pokemon, Super Smash Bros., Tekken and Heroes of Might and Magic. I also love manga and classic literature. I enjoy music like The Birthday Massacre and Thirty Seconds to Mars and I could watch the movie Sucker Punch until the apocalypse!

I'm scared that because I love 90s and early 2000s cartoons instead of Loubitons that guys will view me as weird and manly.

I am not looking for a relationship right now but I am very concerned.

There are lots of types of guys, attracted to lots of types of girls. You should definitely be yourself; if you managed to fake your way into a relationship by pretending to be someone else, then you wouldn't be happy or fulfilled anyway. Being confident in yourself is the best way to feel and be attractive to others. Look after your body and mind, show yourself self-respect; if you attract a guy like this there's a good chance you've found a partner to your liking.

As for what kind of girl do you like: I'm asexual but not aromantic, plus I'm a girl so my opinion's not really what you're looking for lol, but I find interesting and intelligent people attractive regardless of gender.

^what Rachey said.

I'm really not into women who are all dolled up and very feminine, don't be a stereotype of your gender if you don't want to be.

I like the "Becky" type of woman (Tom Sawyers little girlfriend).

She feminine----yet she speaks her mind.

The first thing I look for in a woman is designer shoes. Without those, nothing else is worth consideration.

At this point, I'll take ANYONE who would bother to call or text me just to talk or see how I'm doing.

I like girls who are nice-looking, but I also like them when they're nice themselves, and are strong minded, reasonable, and quirky and nerdy.

Please, don't give me any ideas about girls who are into partying, becoming illegitimately attractive bimbos, being short-tempered over every situation, and solely into things they think is "real life" just because it's trendy or they "saw it on television". Those kind of girls are a dime a dozen!

My current GF is a "Becky" type because she's feminine, attractive, open-minded, and a person of strong will.

I care more about compatibility over personality or looks.

As long as I like her for her and she for me, that's almost all that matters.

When it comes to looks all that matters is I'm physically attracted to her, and that's really not hard because if she's age 16-25 and looks like 90% of the population and cares about her health and hygiene as much as 90% of women, then I'd probably be attracted to her or if I'm not will become physically attracted to her if I get to know her and like her personality.

I don't care about any physical disabilities as long as she doesn't have to spend significant amounts of time in hospital or has a moderate to high risk of death in the near-future because these things would always leave me worried for her and I wouldn't be able to see her as much.

Mild facial deformity is fine, burn victim face is fine, etc.

I don't care about hobbies or interests and how similar we are.

We can be as different as night and day but if we're compatible, then I'd make it work with her.

Is not aggressive/mean/controlling/abusive/suicidal/sad/negative.

She can have any number of mental disorders as long as none of them make her extremely aggressive/mean/controlling/abusive/suicidal/sad/negative.

Intellectually disabled is fine.

Self-harmers, unfortunately, are a deal-breaker unless they are making an extremely dedicated effort to end it.

Mild to moderate depression is fine as long as she's trying to treat it with medication and therapy. Severe is not unless the treatment is working very well.

Not creepy/strange (creepy and strange = likes drawing with blood or tortures animals or just makes me uncomfortable or scared)

If she wants to live at home for the rest of her life, never get a job, never learn to drive, etc. I'd be fine with that.

I don't care what country she's from, what race, what height, am very flexible with what weight she must be, if she speaks enough English to communicate that's all that matters, how much or how little education she's had, etc.

Looks aren't really important to me but I'm less attracted to girls who look like they'd be stuck up. I'm more attracted to women who look real & natural.

the "girly girl" types don't do it for me.

I prefer girls with a few masculine features (mainly in behaviour), women that drink beer, game, read fantasy, play RPGs (preferably tabletop), things like that.

to give an example from 'pokemon' (gen 1), i'd prefer Mistey over her sisters, and officer jenny over nurse joy.

I like smart girls. Seriously. I've dated a few girls who weren't very smart and it was not a fun experience for me. About two days ago I friendzoned a girl who liked me, in part because she's not very smart. I stopped dating another girl who was reasonably intelligent but just sort of uninteresting. As in she didn't really have have any hobbies or passions and she was just sort of existing, rather than having a life.

Yes I know it sounds like I'm picky and I am picky. It's not about getting a date with a girl, it's about getting a date with a girl who I'd enjoy spending time with. I love long conversations.

Also it would be dishonest of me to deny that looks matter to me. So I won't deny it. I like smooth skin. I like a good figure. Waist to hip ratio of 70% and all that jazz.

I especially like tall girls. Six foot or more. I feel so sad when I hear a girl lamenting that she's too tall. Tall girls are beautiful. Tall girls are elegent and graceful. Also tall girls are close to me in height. I dated a girl who was only 5'3" for a while and the height difference made it difficult for us to kiss while standing up and do other things while standing up. It just felt weird that the top of her head came up to her head.

That's good! Like I said, I don't mind if a girl has different interests than me but it's very important that she has interests. Otherwise she seems boring. She seems passionless.

When I date a girl who has different interests to me, I see it as an opportunity to get into new hobbies, movies or music. In fact, some of my favourite bands have been introducted to me by one particular girl I used to date. I'd never heard of them before her.

It's good for us guys to get exposed to new interests and it's also good for us to meet girls who already share interests in common. You like video games and manga? More than half the young men I know like video games and manga! Guys love girls who are into video games and manga.

Don't worry about video games being too boyish. Video games aren't just for guys, they're for everyone. None of your hobbies or interests detract from your femininity and even if you want to be a tomboy, that doesn't make you less dateable. I actually kind of like tomboys.

I know this sounds cliché, but be yourself. Really. When it comes to dating, I like to see girls getting into the stuff they're into. It lets me know they're passionate about something. I'd rather see a girl being passionate about something I've never heard of than being phegmanetic about something she's not really into.

Please don't feel like you need to be more feminine. I'd be much more interested in a girl who's good at being herself than a girl who's failing at being someone else.


I'm scared that because I love 90s and early 2000s cartoons instead of Loubitons that guys will view me as weird and manly.
