Do Gentlemen Prefer Blondes?

[Brenda Starrr]

It's not the hair color of the person, it's the true color of their heart

I like the way you think, TC.

i just would not be happy with someone i found "phsyically repulsive"

Haircolor is one thing. Physically repusive is quite another.

[Head Wreck]

True. But you can't judge them by haircolor, either.  :

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

yes you can, blondes tend to be slightly dithery, thier car dashboards are usually filled with plush toys or other cutness.

redheads, fiery, assertive, mean ight hook. the main points that piss me off about women is the lack of that. plus redheads tend to be of paler flesh.

brunettes can be quiet, can be as loud as the redheads, but smooth waters run deep

[Shade Everdark]

It's not the hair color that does it, it's the hair's texture.

There are few things sexier on anyone, than a well-kept mane of silken flowing hair....

Um..pardon me for a few.

"Like it or not, looks DO matter."

unless the person is hideous, looks really don't matter to me that much.

and i would not want to date a 4 foot 700 pound man cuz for one is shorter than me and two, weighing that much means you don't care enough about yourself to take care of yourself. that would be the issue to me. not how the person looks. what that "look" represents is what matters.

"unless they are hideous" along with the rest of your statement ,means looks do matter unfortunately. You basicly re-capped my post, in differnt words, with a less blunt slant, and its in total agreement with my intended point. (although you meant it as a contradiction i assume)

The "meaning behind the looks" point, while true in many cases, still leads back to "looks do matter" like it or not. (and in that specific example, i happen to know a guy that weighs 550-600 (fluxuates a lot) and its around 5'3" and works out litterally 6 days a week and has done so for years, the guy is a very friendly guy and can "talk to women" very easily ,is social (far more social than i am for sure) and is very funny, yet hasnt had a girlfriend, in something like 9 years. thats NOT becasue looks dont matter)

I've fought against the idea of "looks mattering" for years and years. I also have tons of mental , romantic constructions like some of the ones above that i could spew out basicly saying "looks dont matter its whats inside that counts", and would get lots of "awe how cute" responses, but , i would be, wrong from a "vox factual" standpoint. Morally i might be right in saying thoes things but sadly, looks do matter to 99.99% of the population. I dont LIKE that they matter, for very personal reasons, and a lot of different situations, but what i like , and what the facts are are different. :unhappy:

[JaneDead]

it's a matter of opinion, personal opinion, if looks matter or not. looks matter to you doesn't mean they do matter to me.

i wouldn't want to date the 400 pound man because that to me is not healthy. not cuz he doesn't LOOK *good*.

it is really funny to me that so many places on this board/posts on this board no one believes me when i say what i say about "LOOKS".

why is that so hard to believe? just becasue my ideas/opinions are that different doesn't mean they are wrong or untrue.

[Brenda Starrr]

wouldn't want to date the 400 pound man because that to me is not healthy. not cuz he doesn't LOOK *good*.

Maybe it's 350lbs of muscle and 50lbs manmeat.

[JaneDead]

that would actually be fine then. if it was 400 pounds of fitness- then i would not have to worry about that poor man croaking on me during sex.

[Marblez]

I believe that yes, you have to be attracted to someone. No doubt, I understand. But (and I would never wish this on anyone) but imagine being one of those people that can only be attracted to "model beauty" and turning down anyone that doesn't qualify regardless of personality...suddenly you find yourself disabled or facially disfigured (i.e. less attractive). Enjoy reaping the benefits of your standards, I guess.

I would like to see THAT tv-movie.

[Marblez]

I will add, I expect to continue losing weight and with god as my witness - anyone that did not consider me dateable because of my size - not a chance in hell.

---but then i am not bitter about that subject. : I am doing what needs to be done.

[Brenda Starrr]

Beauty comes in all shapes and sizes. Wayne has two friends who are model-handsome men. You can't possibly make these two believe that. They expect to only date model-pretty women. However, it seems all of Baltimore is wise to them, and they can't seem to find anymore one night stands.

Wah.

[Troy Spiral (13)]

Does anyone reading this really not understand the idea of "people have varrying opinions about what is 'attractive' and that some , might find attractive, what others dont care for at all" anyone?? anyone?? Ok good. Now since we all agree on that, you just agreed that looks matter.

Ok now that we all are past the high school education level understanding of "looks assement..." Yes, looks do , unfortunately , matter, to some degree no matter how we would like to think otherwise and try to tiptoe around it.

My friend that i was refering to is that way due to genetics (yes really) is a tennis coach and has been "in shape" his whole life but the fat just will not go away, but what do go away are the women. And belive me, he doesnt sit still for "you dont want them if they are like that..." bullshit for more than about 19 seconds, when taken in context and assuming we already know the ABCs of "theres someone out there for everone" type plattitudes. I was the one telling him the "cheer up bro you dont need anyone thats like that (cares about looks!) type stuff" for the first 3-4 years i knew him and i really didnt understand why he was blowing me off, now i do. Yes , you can "find somone" but it makes it a hell of a lot harder if you are way way way outside the "tradtional good looks" mold. What does that mean? It means , looks matter. Having been on the reciving end at least twice that im sure of, probably a lot more that i have no real way of knowing about, similar situations were it had nothing to do with personality, it was about looks, if you dont meet somones "minimum looks requirement" (whatever the hell that is) thats it, hit the road jack. :unhappy: Does that mean that person is "bad" or "not worth your time" , in fairy land, yes, in real-life no. It just means that looks , like it or not, are a factor.

Strange , i guess its becasue looks dont matter! Is there SOMEONE out there for him? SURE! Does that erase the fact that looks matter? NO. Same goes for even the most awesomely "tradtional" model type, some might just not find that person attractive and wouldnt be interested becasue of that, thus, again , looks do matter.

People that live in Disneyland were looks dont matter, invite me please so i can come live there too! Especially since i recently gained like 50 pounds in like 15 seconds via some sort of flashbulb-fat injection that cameras must give off and have decided to join an ugly-clinic were we can all tell each other that no one would ever care what we look like and would only judge us based on our personality.

I really WISH the world was like that , and personality was the only concern, but i also belive in trying to see the world for what it is. And its not a place were looks are a non issue.

[Brenda Starrr]

A little hard on yourself, aren't you Troy??? You look fine.

[soothsayer]

If I might interject, this assumes that your first meeting is IRL. Many people are meeting using alternative methods these days including the internet. In situations like that, personality is the first thing you have to go on.

This is assuming the person has a personality, so many people create an alter ego that they project over the internet because they are unhappy with themselves. Weather it be their LOOKS or their lack of self esteem, either way ....they act phoney. As for hair color.....how could it matter that much? If a person is good to you, it doesn't matter. And if their not good to you well..the same aplies. Right?

Damn Troy, you took the words right out of my mouth.

Yes looks matter, however, that's precisely why there are all kinds of people having different opinions of what they think is physically attractive.

[Daniel]

I gravitate towards women with dark hair. The darker, the better. I do love synthetic red colors. But, different colors look better on different people. I know I personally tend to gravitate towards long, dark hair.

[paradox]

i also prefer the dark

[TomCat]

Good answer Paradox...she may be short, but she'd kick your butt if you answered any differently!! :fear

[TomCat]

Redhead, Blonde, Brunette...doesn't really matter as long as they're not a bottom feeding-heartless-soulsucking-whore.

[soothsayer]

I've only dated brunettes ~ there's something about a woman with dark hair and seductive eyes and............. :devil

[soothsayer]

Oh I remember the other thing...........large breasts. :grin

[torn asunder]
