DU Men: What attributes are foremost in attracting you to a man?
I'm not a man, but no one else was starting these threads. Let's get some other discussions going.

I'm actually pretty curious if men look for the same things women do in men.

1. I like men with long hair and...
...an earthy, slightly hippyish quality about them. Not an actual hippy, mind you, but a nice, down-to-earth kind of guy.

Caring nature, left leaning.

5. OK Sniffa, I have to ask.
Why do you like to capitalize the L's in your posts? What is it with THAT letter?

4. Eyes
Followed by:
* smile
* posture
* svelteness

I've only met one guy to whom I was genuinely attracted, so I'm not 100% certain of the attractive voracity of these traits.

9. Hey for whatever reason more gay men
find me attractive than straight women or is that they are intimidated? Oh how arrogant of me! No seriously, it's true. If my wife hadn't been so aggressive in pursuing me I'd probably still be single (and straight).

13. there's a lot of different kinds of men
there's preppys
alternative/indie
rugged/rough
youg/twink
etc.

i like them all -- depends on my mood -- i.e. if they are alternative they might have a shaved head or if they are jock then i want 'em w/ hair.
i guess the most important quality besides looks is -- wait for it -- size!
anyone surprised?
sigh -- i didn't think so.

16. Smile, humor, smarts, friendly face
Those are musts. For the rest, if I like a man, I like what he's got.

17. I have gotten past physical attributes...
I am attracted to a guy who takes me for who I am, and who will be there when I need him. (btw, I am happily coupled* with just that guy!!!)

*Would like to get married, but we live in Florida.

18. I like intelligent, liberal men
with a finely honed sense of humor and appreciation of the ridiculousness and transience of the human condition.
It's also nice if they drink Scotch and can talk flying too, but not mandatory.
Looks don't matter.
Smokers welcome.
Or non.
I'm hetero.
;-)
