gypsykisses: yes, looks do matter. Without the initial physical attraction, I don't know how it would go further.


I agree with this, couldnt have said it better myself. Very true indeed.

Men that I find attractive do not appeal to any of my girlfriends. A few scars, a few dents - I'll know it when I see it.

Sommerauer71: I am going to say yes. But I'm not that shallow, as to say I just go for looks. What I find attractive in a man, may not be any other person's cup of tea.

Is it not about we as individuals find attractive?

So, folks, what do you think? I know we have done this before.
personailty works for me. Also my musclar body.grin peace

Sommerauer71: Sir

Disenfranchised from reality of air brushing and make up? Hum, I find that interesting to say the least.

I was coming from the direction of, how it easy to be smitten by a celebrity.

How easy is it for me, personally to separate it?

Perfectly. Simply because I do not subscribe to it in the first place. I can answer all questions, about what would happen if GC came and rocked up at my door. But it is not going to happen. So, I never dream about that.

I do not see a person as good looking, I see a person as attractive and having presence. This is important for me. I like presence.


So then your Magazine Cover pic is a railling against the establishment then???

On to you me Ladiee

tgwstw: Of course they do.
If someone claims that they do not I would seriously question their motives.
Looks are NOT paramount, but they do matter.
Attraction is an age old, basic thing. We like what we like and we seek what we like.
I would never date a gorgeous guy who couldn't make me laugh nor would I date a guy I did not find at all attractive with a great sense of humor.
The world is about balance.




If I were a bird, I'd sure be hanging around you a lot!!blushing

Looks matter to me alot! If it didn't matter, there would be a lot of weird looking couples all over the world. The only people i can say that looks don't matter to. Are the girls/women-boy/man that are running after rich guys/girls that are butt ugly, the women/man only want there money.

In response to:
Not just looks, but also sound, taste, smell, feel,...
We can only know anything about each other through our senses.

Very few ppl (if any) dispute that personality is more important.

The OP question was 'Do looks matter?'.

Can you honestly say that looks do not matter to you? Keep in mind that 'looks' are subjective.

I for one strongly believe that looks do reflect personality, hence I don't have this problem - choosing looks over personality or vise versa.

If this is jacked up, feel free to say so LOL~ But I have to try to imagine myself kissing someone (yes, after having seen the way they look) and if I can't imagine it, then it just can't be for me. Is that shallow? Because I can't imagine myself kissing just anyone either.. for instance.. I totally can't imagine kissing Brad Pitt~ eww.. And that's not to say that I think he's ugly either.. but he just doesn't do it for me I guess! LOL! It's not all about the kiss either, just the starting point for me where looks are concerned! professor

I will tell you my experience on POF regarding "looks".

I recently created a profile there because they are very few women who actually log on to this site from Ottawa area.

I posted my pic of the Sydney bridge in background. A woman that I sent a message to said that she refused to communicate with someone who did not have several pictures and preferably close ups because she had been played in the past.

I was also supposed to go on a date with another woman who asked me to post close up pictures so she knew who she was going to be meeting the next day. Well I received a message from her saying that she was ill and that perhaps we could make it for the following weekend. Never heard from her again. Also those who were communicating with me either stopped or gave a sugar coated excuse for not thinking us to be compatible.

Yes, we are visual creatures whether I like it, I do it....or not.

Yes we are, both men and women are. So we all go by the pictures first as too whom we are attracted too, and avoid the ones that look like a nutcase or someone we aren't attracted to at all.professor thumbs up

But you're not seriously suggesting that personality somehow forges one's looks to match it? Like, I have a dogged personality so I resemble a Saint Bernard or pitt bull? confused laugh wave hug
