Question for Lounge guys: What qualities are REALLY important in a woman?

[ohiosmith]

[NYC_SKP]

1. Big hands and a Netflix Account.

Next question...

[ohiosmith]

2. Are you married? Does your wife post here? If so, where will you sleep tonight?

[Ron Obvious]

3. When I was young...

I would have answered "large bank account and a weak heart".

Now I know it's compatibility with me and an ability to not take things too seriously.

[Major Nikon]

4. An open mind

I can't think of anything else that comes close.

[Tobin S.]

5. Intelligence

That is a must. If she doesn't have that then nothing else matters to me. Of course, I'm off the market now, but when I met my wife that's the first thing that impressed me about her. She is smart.

[Xipe Totec]

6. Everything

Poise, intelligence, beauty, confidence....

And most of all,


A desperate desire to be by my side.

[rrneck]

7. A pulse. nt

[Xipe Totec]

8. Sometimes that can be a hindrance... nt

[rug]

9. A sense of humor, compassion, empathy and

hot thighs.

[sendero]

10. So many things...

... but first of all, she must love animals. Not because I'm a huge animal lover, but because I am an animal. Women that understand dogs understand men. Women that love dogs have an easier time loving a man.

Second, intelligence is a must. You can only engage in physical love a certain percentage of the time. The rest of the time you have to talk to her. And that can be a joy, or a whipping if she is thick as a brick.

And lastly, fat bottom girls DO make the rocking world go 'round, but, her waist needs to be somewhat smaller than her hips.

That's about it

[lastlib]

11. 1) show up naked; 2) bring beer.

j/k. Hi, ladies!

[loli phabay]

12. boobs

Cant believe im the first to say it

[madinmaryland]

13. As long as the pubics are neatly trimmed and well kept up.

[Chan790]

14. I'm a sucker for a cute face...

I'd go so far as to say it's a roadblock for me...you can be the most-wonderful warm-hearted person ever but if I can't look you in the face and think "Hmm." we're never going to be more than friends. The problem is I'll forgive all varieties of personal faults and failures including utter sociopathy and cruelty and puppy-kicking for a nice mug too only to get really hurt.

Adventurous in bed.
Well-read.
Despises Ron Paul.

I think that's about it. Also I don't date blondes or people from New Jersey. Those aren't preferences per say; they're the result of life-experience. Also, I will never sleep another night in New Jersey.

[dawg]

18. Chan, you can send all the "butterface" ones my way if you like, so long as they are nice.

A pretty face isn't all that big a deal to me.

Also, what do you have against New Jersey? I hear Camden is nice this time of year!

[Chan790]

32. What do I have against NJ?

Well, my ex-fiance was from Sewell. She was a monster, nothing good has ever resulted of a night spent in the Garden State. If I'm doing something in NJ that requires an overnight stay, I drive to PA, NY or DE to sleep.

[bluedigger]

15. Poor vision and a weak sense of smell usually work to my favor.

[HopeHoops]

16. #1: Best friend.

[dawg]

17. Kindness.

That's the single most important trait I look for. If a woman is unkind, there's nothing she can do for me that can make up for that.

I know I have said this before, but I sometimes wish I would be cursed with the affliction Jack Black had in the movie "Shallow Hal". When he looked at a woman, he saw her inner beauty instead of her actual physical form. Even though his girlfriend's panties were large enough to serve as a sail for a small craft, he saw her as Gwyneth Paltrow. That would be nice. It's such a waste to be physically attracted to women who are not beautiful people and to not be physically attracted to women who are.

[datasuspect]

19. The bigger the cushion, the sweeter the pushin

That's what I said.
The looser the waistband, the deeper the quicksand
Or so I have read.
My baby fits me like a flesh tuxedo.
I love to sink her with my pink torpedo.
Big bottom
Big bottom
Talk about bum cakes,
My gal's got 'em.
Big bottom,
Drive me out of my mind.
How can I leave this behind?
I saw her on monday, twas my lucky bun day
You know what I mean.
I love her each weekday, each velvety cheekday
You know what I mean.
My love gun's loaded and she's in my sights
Big game's waiting there inside her tights
Big bottom
Big bottom
Talk about mud flaps
My gal's got 'em.
Big bottom
Drive me out of my mind.
How can I leave this behind?

[Xyzse]

21. Oh and yes...

This too!

[Xyzse]

20. Someone I Can Talk to in the Morning

Meaning...

I have to be able to have a great conversation with the person so the voice has to be soothing and not grating.
A willingness to be able to step back and assess a situation logically and separate emotion for it for a while. Basically, this means that if there is any type of argument, they would be able to say "ok, let's sleep on it and talk about it tomorrow". Allows things to cool down and re-assess. Very very important in relationships. You make someone feel trapped, they will do something you will regret.
A willingness to try new things and at least to try to be as active as I am(relatively, I need someone I can bring to hikes and stuff)
Adventurous in food! A must. I can't have a vegetarian girlfriend. I have international friends and some cultures it is just bad manners to automatically say no without trying.

In regards to physicality, I rather have someone who is a bit overweight than someone who is anorexic.
Women need curves dangit, and I firmly believe those who go for the waifish type girls may be closet gays. Not that there is anything wrong with that.

[datasuspect]

22. someone who doesn't sob hysterically after lovemaking

[Xyzse]

24. Never had that problem.

I thought that was a myth like the loch ness monster.

Then again, religious types that feel guilty for thinking about sex turn me off so I don't think that is one I'll ever deal with.

[Scuba]

26. Can't find one like that, huh?

[dawg]

29. Crying isn't so bad.

Under the right circumstances, it's kind of sweet. You know, unless she won't stop muttering about "how far she has fallen" and stuff like that!

[Xyzse]

31. LOL

Actually, a really bad part of me suddenly thought that would be interesting.
I am so awful.

[redqueen]

36. Hahahaha... nice.

Some actual humor in the lounge, who knew?!

"Pubics"

[Kali]

37. hey!

[Equate]

23. Intelligent and critical thinking

Also, good looking is a big plus.

[Alduin]

25. A libido.

Seriously.

My girlfriend and I have only had sex three times in the last seven weeks. She's never in the mood or there's always something wrong with her.

I hate it because we don't connect on that extra level and it sucks.

You can think of me as a jerk for posting this, but I have needs too.

[dawg]

30. Just remember this:

You're beating me 3-0 over the last seven weeks!

Seriously though, this is a real issue and I don't think you are a jerk for posting about it.

[loli phabay]

33. 7 weeks, damn thats a long time, i dont think i could go two days without some.

i salute you for being a stronger man than i.

[Scuba]

27. A vagina. After that I'm open.

[KG]

28. tits like canon balls.

[Ya Basta]

34. This

[AnneD]

35. My fav answer was from a cowboy poet...

Big and strong enough to get the job done, but not so big and strong she scares you.

[Kali]

38. ha!

[Wounded Bear]

40. I make it a point to never date a girl...

who can bench press me.

[JonLP24]

39. Liberal/progressive viewpoints nt

[underpants]

41. eyes. brain. the hips.

the hips.

[mythology]

42. Intelligence, and able to "get" me

I am one of those people who falls into the good guy, but not always a nice guy category. I need somebody strong enough to be able to appeal to the better angels of my nature. Or at least have the witty charms to soothe the savage breast.

Also she has to like animals since I tend to prefer them to most people.
Doing some sort of exercise is a must as I work out a lot and it would be hard to have a relationship with somebody who doesn't.

Oh and if the doctor at the mental institute she's probably in would give her a day pass or two, that would be helpful too.

[Ikonoklast]

43. Must love cats.

And they must like her.

I have found that kitties are an excellent judge of human nature.
