I have always suspected that my fixation with breasts, might be an indication that deep down I truly am gay; and that my conscious self focuses so highly on breasts purely to ensure that my eyes are always distracted and may never catch sight of a male penis, because once they see it, the ego buried within the depths of the un-conscious shall become infatuated and desirous to such a degree that suppressing my true desire shall become impossible. Well played super-ego. Well played indeed. Never letting me truly discover my homosexual tendencies by ensuring that I am at all times distracted by breasts...well played indeed brain.Quote:

As Don Quixote said "A hypocrite preaching virtue does more harm than any common sinner"
My initial reaction to reading over this thread is that when discussing the poll results people should maybe be asking more questions and making fewer statements.
Meantime, I would like to do my part to dispel the generalization of the shallow, physical-attribute-obsessed man. Unfortunately, I've realized that the first thing I checked out when looking at the women's poll results was whether any women voted for boobs (One did! Yes!).
So before I go back into my cave, I'd like to ask this question: Do women who like breasts like breasts in the same way that men who like breasts like breasts?
No, women like breasts as a way of attracting a man but men like breasts as something to get their teeth into.Quote:

I think the fundamental differences here are that humour, intelligence and kindess are going to have a much more sustainable effect in a long term relationship than face, breasts and build. The qualities that women are looking for will not necessarily disappear over time as opposed to the physical qualities that men look for.Quote:

Men have two brains. Firstly there is the brain that resides in the cranium which may indeed be attracted by sense of humour, kindness, personality etc.. Then there's our second brain located somewhere in the trouser region. It is a userper and an upstart and it doesnt care for any of that, it goes for the hot body and big breasts everytime.Quote:

Although, I was confused over which poll I should vote in.
I also hear there isn't enough blood to flow to both heads at the same time (won't you drop dead if that happens?) and there lies the problem :ladysman:Quote:

And Sino girls I don't much like either. I have had the black girl discussion with several other Italian friends of mine and they all feel the same way, we were all of the same opinion that we would never do a black girl. Not because of racism but simply because we don't find them attractive.

I find it a lot more interesting. I am not much of a flirt but whenever I do flirt I am glad to no longer be confined to my own race.
I encounter this "black girls are not attractive" thing all over the internet. I don't understand it. It irritates me greatly. If anything you could make the opposite claim, a reverse-racist claim and say that black women, like latino women, often have amazing bodies - are more voluptuous. Most of the women I've dated have been white women so I'm not knocking them or anything. And white women can be voluptuous too and often are, but it just seems from what I've seen in my area and from the internet and television that the women of some other races often have more curvaceous figures. And this includes subsets of the "white" race - like women from Portugal.
Anyway. All races are attractive. I find them equally attractive. A group that doesn't get enough attention for being hot are native women, the indigenous peoples of the lands now called Canada and America.
Race is one of the last things I think about when sizing up a potential partner. And isn't it a proven scientific fact that offspring from mixed couples are stronger or better adapted from an evolutionary point of view? Its like the opposite of inbreeding and from what I know inbreeding is pretty darn unhealthy and sick.
And I honestly don't see how it cannot be deemed racist to write off an entire race's female population as ineligible for mating. Plus you've just removed from your pool of potential partners an entire continent. Anyway.
I'll offer some degree of defense for Alex... although he's quite good at speaking for himself. First of all... he is but 19 years old and quite likely may not have yet come across a Black or Asian woman that he has found personally attractive. Growing up in a predominantly (almost wholly) White community, I don't think I would have entertained the notion of finding either a Black or an Asian woman attractive myself at that age.
I will go on to say that there is a degree of hypocrisy involved in this thread when one is asked for an honest response concerning what initially attracts us as individuals... and then when such honest answers are put forth, some are taken to task concerning their answers. Honestly, propriety and political correctness have nothing to do with what we are or aren't attracted to. The fact that Alex has isn't sexually attracted to Black or Asian women would seem to me no more racist than the fact that I have never been sexually attracted to men is sexist. Alex may be wholly respectful... even admiring of Black and Asian women in every other context, but simply finds that he has never been physically attracted to any of them. I suspect there are certain attributes that we all find unattractive to a given extent and as such are not attracted to individuals with these attributes. Obviously, this amounts to a prejudice or discrimination of a sort... but desire... attraction is nothing if not discriminating and propriety, equality, justice, and political correctness have absolutely nothing to do with it.
And in case some were wondering... in light of my defense of Alex... yes, I most certainly have come across more than my fair share of Black, Asian, and Hispanic/Latino women that I have found deadly attractive. One of my favorite operatic performers... and I'll admit that her appearance bears far more weight upon my admiration than her solid singing abilities... is the soprano, Danielle de Niese, who is of Sri Lankan Burgher heritage... a Eurasian ethnic group, historically from Sri Lanka, involving a mixture of European and native Sinhalese:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P7onnt2OvPY
Good points, all, stlukes. I retract my implications, Alex.
And I'm also a fan of de Niese. I saw her in a simulcast production of "Treasure Island" (or a title like that, not 100% sure). She stole the show. She's beautiful, a good singer, but a great performer, too. She was in a comedic role and had everyone laughing consistently. But I digress . . .
Black, white, yellow (?) or whatever - some women speak directly to your second brain, or your libido. Ideally you are looking for someone who entertains the cranial brain too.
One of the most attractive quality a woman can have is to show an interest in you, to seek you out to flirt with. We shallow men like this, it massages our egos. I don't think this works both ways, because men tend to try and flirt with anything in a skirt.
Aloofness is a quality that I find to be a great turn on. An aloof woman, one who looks at me like I simply do not impress her, does in that way greatly impress me. She has to warm up and be friendly, but an initial aloofness bespeaks something, I don't know whether to call it virtue or superiority or shyness or what, but I like it, it turns me on.

Quite true. Chris Rock explains this reality better than anyone (don't click on this link if you are easily offended or underage.... now eveyone will be sure to look:brow::devil:)

Haha that was nice to do liberating!!:D:thumbsup:
I cannot stand tie and suits so dated as to the shoes oh dear another tighteness not needed !:nonod:
Here's a natty little number if you prefer a shorter skirt.

Emil thank you that is slightely better but I feel the hat must go because a visible likeable face is important to the whole outfit.Quote:

so as recap just a sheer blouse, skirt and sandals with a the rest of the person body and face visible haha:biggrin5:

I lived for 5 years in Singapore, during a crucial formational period, when began puberty and such. And I would think that my cause for not fining sino girls attractive is over-exposure rather than under-exposure. There were so many there and there were so few caucasians that the sino girl became common and the caucasian rare. And I am quite sure that is why I am not attracted to them, because in my mind they are still common, unlike for most western males. Also I hate it when western guys say I like Asian girls, and yet are unable to see any difference between a japanese korean or chinese girl. I could differentiate the 3 just as easily as I could differentiate between an Italian, English and Bulgarian girl. Yet most western guys don't see these apparent physical differences. It's like when a chinese guy who has never been to europe says I love western girls, and he would not be able to see the difference between a scandinavian and a Spanish girl.
Also while in Italy there are few sub-sharans, France and England have a strong population of them, and most french and English (white) friends of mine feel the same way, in fact of all my white friends I think roughly 8/10 of them are not attracted to black girls. As St.lukes pointed out it is stupid to think this is racism as racism would be, She is pretty, but she is black so I would never - just as homophobia is not, I am not attracted to guys ergo I am homophobic, so much as it would be Wow I would like to sleep with him, eeew im not gay no way.
It may be an age thing, but I don't see why that would be. Maybe considering the large segment of white male population which is not attracted to black girls, at a young age black girls are simply uglier and as they grow older they develop better.
Oh and P.S If you guys use examples of black girls you are attracted to by citing mixed race girls...well... you'r not exactly strengthening your argument. I find the girl in the video very attractive. But she is not black, or if she is included in your definition of black girls, then I too in such a case am attracted to black girls, just not the darker ones.

He's dating white girls but he's young, good looking and I think he's just doing everything he can to get lucky - even if he can't tell the difference!Quote:

These threads are confusing for same-sex attraction however, so I'd be willing to bet that the one chick who voted for "breasts" meant female breasts. Me, I just answered the "for men" poll and selected the traits which I admire in women.Quote:

Are you kidding, nothing turns meo on like being chased...by a worthy manof course but still, nothing better than flattery to catch my attention, that said I'm a little vauge, so perhaps it only works because I never notice people otherwise. That said, there is nothing worse than being hit on by a bogan.
It was Pensive.

So, either Pensive is a liar, she's delusional, or Neely is wrong. Either way Pensive didn't start us on this train, you're the first person to reference that post and this all started with Neely's, as his expressed opinion was the one which was picked up by other posters and discussed.
Just painting the scenario, not drawing conclusions. And also, what does it matter? have we descended to the "they started it" level? Are you and Neely on a team now, and me and my vagina aren't allowed to join? You know, I was born intersex.
