It depends on the guy, just as the others have said. I do have some preferences, other things equal.

When I first became interested in girls, I thought a lot about physical appearance and the female anatomy. But, as I've gotten older, I've found that when I really fall in love, those things just don't matter any more. A guy who really loves you will be looking for something much deeper.

Every guy is different but most men will say a sweet personality and a woman that lets the man be a man is the most attractive woman to him.

Guys like a nice girl that is loyal and faithful and one that acts like a woman. I think most men are attracted to a feminine woman who has confidence. There is no perfect woman. We all have flaws. Men do as well.

DoubleM agony auntAllow me to add comment a bit more specific to your question, which seems to be more about physical appearance or physical nature. Generally, I think that most men are least attracted to obese or overweight women, which is likely the same preference for women to men. However, a bit "meaty" is often totally acceptable.

Personally, I prefer the term plump, which means just a little overweight. Slim is very good, but certainly not skeletal or "stick." For me, the ideal woman is slightly meaty (firm and somewhat muscular, rather than flabby). Yet, as I previously stated, a good attitude often trumps physical status.

Physical beauty catches a mans eye right away BUT - for myself and my friends I have found that it really is the personality of a women that we are attracted to.

I'm sure many will go on about how they like sexy this or big that, but a lasting relationship is not built on a 'hot' body. The thing that attracts me after first glance is a woman's laugh. I don't mean a woman who laughs at everything, but one that is witty, intelligent and self-confident I often find that more attractive.

So if your worried about looking good for someone specific ask him what he likes. But if you are thinking in terms of a long happy relationship, beauty comes in second to compability. I loved my wifes laugh and it's worked for us for the last 25 years.

k_c100 agony auntFrom my experiences some men like slim girls (never ones that look anorexic though with their bones poking out) and some men like girls with curves, some men even go as far as liking what we would call "obese" girls! So it really is each to their own - everyone has a different "type" so to speak. You might be attracted to certain types of guys, just as guys are attracted to certain types of women. That is the great thing about people and human nature - we are all different, no 2 people are the same and we all like different things.

What I would say is that the most attractive thing to a man is a woman with confidence, who is happy with her body and loves herself just the way she is. No man wants to be with a girl who is constantly whining about how "fat" she is or moaning about how she wants bigger "boobs/butt...etc".

I think that as long as you are healthy and happy with your own body then thats all that matters. I am a little bigger than I would like to be so I am exercising like mad, but I still like what I see in the mirror most days and my boyfriend is forever telling me how gorgeous I am, so I am pretty happy! I'm definitely at the curvy end of the scale - I have boobs and hips and a little extra padding where I would prefer it not to be but we cant have everything! I have never had any problems with meeting men and having men be interested in me, but I have had no more or less interest than any of my skinny friends. I have some friends who are very tall and naturally very thin, and while they do get attention when we go out I would say it is no more so than the attention I get. So again it is just individual preference - some men like a skinny girl, others find the "real woman" figure with curves more attractive.

So I guess all you need to do is be happy with your body, be healthy and be confident, then you will be attractive to men!

I hope this helps and good luck!

The first thing a man notices about women is....her eyes

strange but true, thats why we stare too long.

I personally like a girl who is fun to be with and enjoys a joke. A huge thing for me is good conversation, I mean you can only have sex foe so long.

I am not too fussed on looks as everyone gets old and ugly in the end anyway. While personality lasts for ever

Looks will get you a guy but they wont kep him

Depends entirely on the guy. But most guys do like a woman with a kick ass confident personality with some depth and intelligenst to her. As for appearance, it's each guy to his own. Some like thin, some like curves etc. A good guy will like you for who you are though, so be happy and confident with yourself and don't be forced into changing for anyone.
