Attractive: Facial hair (purely preferential), smarts, inner-strength, good principles and morals, stable.

Unattractive: Tattoos (I could date someone with them but I'm repelled by guys that flaunt them like they've got nothing else), materiality, smaller waists than me, pretentiousness, ego's, emotional fragility/weakness.

All in bold are not physical features.

Fail.

You'll be thrown to the crocodiles.

Agreed with blue bean, I don't like guys who flaunt tattoos... Or drug use. Otherwise I'm neutral about both.

I dislike really masculine, sort of square features. Buzz cuts/spikes. Bleached hair when it's not bleached all the way down. And I tend to like proportions or beauty standards that are considered good looking on a woman on men :P

And I like Pete Doherty's tummy, but people have already argued with me about that before... :P

Too much muscle, too tanned and too hairy. These apply for women as well.

Smarts : 145 on the richter scale
Inner strength : 4 marathons and an ultramarathon.
Principles/morals : I do (you may now kiss the bride)
Stable : :shaking2:

Unattractive: beer belly, dirty teeth, long dirty nails, too much muscle / not enough muscle, chapped lips, unwashed private parts, stinky underarms.

Attractive: flat belly, flossed teeth, clean clipped nails, just enough muscle, moisturised lips, washed private parts, fragrant underarms.

With the exception of the belly and the muscle, mine all relate to personal grooming and hygiene. An average-looking, well-groomed man is infinitely more attractive to me than a drop-dead gorgeous, stinky man.

I think I like men who are a little bit metrosexual. 8) (or maybe just slightly OCD in the hygiene/grooming department). At least, that's what society would call them, but I just call them "clean." :)

Nothing wrong with being clean and paying attention to your appearance, but when I think of 'metrosexuals' I'm thinking seriously maintained facial hair, fake tan and dyed hair.

Well that's not the word I mean, then. I don't mean someone who looks like a Ken doll and is all conceited and takes half an hour to gel his hair. I just mean someone who does the things listed above.

Well-groomed men are hard to find. I don't know why, but men don't care nearly as much as women do if they're stinky and unkempt.

Women have more pressure to not be stinky and unkempt.

looks like the other thread of this nature has lots of off topic comments to, and since that one was here first what did you expect? as you must have saw that one and how off topic some comments were first.

Attractive:
Nice hair (that I can run my fingers through, I like both strait and curly and several colors)
Flat-ish stomach. No need for a ripped six pack, but no beer belly.
Smells good to me (I need to like the smell of your sweat, not your aftershave)
Smiles at least some if I say I joke
This may not be physical but is courteous and opens the doors for me.
Tolerates the fact that I am probibly the messiest most disorganized person on earth (yeah executive dysfunction)
Has lots of smarts!! ! (I declare this to be physical even though all evidence points to the contrary)

Unattractive:
Prison tattoos (do not care about tasteful ones but crazy prison like tats are out)
Smokes, drinks, does illicit drugs. (these do affect the physical appearance as well as being signs of the character)
Wants to have sex before we are married.
Too much muscle (like a body builder or pro wrestler)
Too tall (mostly because I am short , under 5'2")

No wonder I am single.
