In what ways are you shallow?

[Piccolo]

My only shallowness is in that I won't date someone whose face I don't find pleasant to look at (which doesn't mean he has to be handsome... some ugly faces are pleasantly ugly), and I probably wouldn't date someone with massive rolls of flab. I did date a guy who was 300 lbs, though. He had a pleasant face, was solid (fat, but not with rolls... just rotund), and had a dynamite personality.

Oh, and be clean, for heaven's sake. I wouldn't date anyone who didn't take basic care of themselves. That's a huge red flag.

[The Ichi]

Maybe it's just me, but most of these don't sound shallow as they do having standards, which everyone should have to some extent.

[Pervy Stone Cold]

I wouldn't absolutely mind, but I'd PREFER no Mike Tyson-like tattoos on her face.

[Vice honcho room temperature]

No fat chicks.... chubby I could deal with but there's a limit.

[héad.casé]

I'm not all that picky, but i've seen so many fake tanned, bleached blondes over the years that those types have become less 'hot' to me now. And I see plenty of those types when i'm out and about. I also hate when really attractive girls go overboard with the make up. I don't want her to be too skinny either, I like my women with curves - not out of shape, but curvy.

Height doesn't bother me - i'm 5'1. As long as I don't have to climb a ladder to kiss her it's all good , she also has to have some semblance of confidence - not arrogance, but confident enough to know who she is and what she's about. I'm quite shy so I think a woman with that kind of attitude would do me good.

["Gentleman" AJ Powell]

Ugly girls who try to look better by putting layers upon layers of makeup. It may sound horrible, but I was pretty much stalked for a couple of years by this odd girls who used to put so much makeup on it'd put the Joker to shame.

[Clash, Never a Meter Maid]

It's not a deal breaker, but I generally prefer long-haired women, or at least girls with a lot of kinky hair.

Everyone is Shallow, you have to like what you see. The people who say looks don't matter are just lying to themselves. Now are looks EVERYTHING that matters hell no. Give me the average to cute looking girl (Although how average are we talking about) with a cool personality over the hot chick who is a bitch with nothing to offer.

But come on if you think you aren't shallow who the f*** are you kidding?

[Beets by Schrute]

Health.
Won't date a girl who is obese, super skinny, smokes, and drinks heavily

[NerdyGerdy]

I have a wide variety of what I find attractive in a woman, that being said, she must (in order):

• Bathe regularly.
  
• Speak clearly, with no ebonics or dialects of that nature.
  
• Have no tattoos. (I've had crushes that were ruined by finding out she had a tattoo...)
  
• Not smoke, she can drink but not heavily.
  
• Have a face I enjoy looking at. (Lots of faces are attractive to me though.)
  
• Not be of the wrong political stripes. (This would only cause friction.)
  
• Have non crinkled hair.
  
• One of the things I find the most attractive about a girl is if she's really passionate about something, so add that...
  

I suppose I could overlook some of these if I found something about her to like however.

[agent817]

I am really not that shallow. The only thing close to shallowness that I have is that I would rather date someone who is at least okay or decent looking. She doesn't have to be a 10, but I don't want someone who is really bad looking either.

Also, body-wise, I really don't care if someone is thin, fit, or chubby. In fact, I can take all three, but there are limitations. When it comes to thin, I don't want her to be a total twig. If she is fit, I don't mind a little muscle, in fact I get a little turned on by it, but if she is totally muscular, then that's a turnoff. Also, with chubby girls, I do not one who is REALLY big. I actually don't mind, hell I can admit that I even like it if a girl is chubby. Hey, she happens to be cuddly.

Personality-wise, they have to be a good person and not have an attitude problem. Nothing racial about this, but this is one reason why I'm skeptical about dating black girls. I would date a black girl if she has a decent personality and doesn't have a bad attitude. A lot of black girls I see, they have major attitude problems and there is nothing racial about this. Of course, if I say something to them, then it's misconstrued as that. Trust me.

That's called having standards, not being shallow. If I am going to date someone, I would like to find SOMETHING about them to be attractive.

Wow. I'm not one to get easily offended but seriously if you think that wasn't racist you are kidding yourself.

Black girls are just like any other girls. Some are sweet, some not so much. The color of their skin has nothing to do with it.

I had a professor last summer that had a similar disposition(that black people are more likely to have an "attitude problem" than other races).

Is racist because you can name faults with any races women, you name faults with women in general. To specifically call one race women out is very racist.

1. I dont date barflys, or girls that take pictures chucking deuces and making duckfaces!
2. No drugs unless they are prescription!
3. They must care about their physical health and at least try to be in decent shape... i dont expect perfection
4. Excessive Country Music....F*** Country Music!
5. They have to be good in bed... i dont care how compatible we are and how comfortable i feel around a girl... if she sucks in the sack thats the main dealbreaker for me!...

[Alexander The So-so]

My biggest one:

I look at myself in reflective surfaces way too often. Even when someone else is in the room, and I'm in the middle of a conversation with them, I find myself constantly glancing towards my reflection in a window or TV screen or whatever, checking out how I look.

I mean, I'm not narcissistic; I don't think I'm such a handsome stud or anything. But good God, why do I keep doing that?

I'm kinda similar. If there's a mirror or something in the room, it's hard for it not to be the subject of my gaze.

If you've never done psychedelic "magic" mushrooms, don't, unless you want to lose yourself in a mirror all afternoon.


....Not that I would know or anything.

Okay, you guys made your point. It's just that the ones who I usually see are high-maintenance and that turns me off.
