ok..please..when you spot someone across the room and you have really no idea what their personality is besides if they appear to be smiling or happy (still doesnt tell you anything without meeting them) you notice their face/body...NOT their personaility..why is there this need to seem 'not superficial' when it comes to judgling looks by some women? It's perfectly normal to not find someone attractive physically even if ..GASP.. they have a good personality.
I'm absolutely drawn to good looks...but we were talking about celebrities and I guess I just go by the kinds of roles they play (I don't know anyone personally) by the sort of personality they have. I can make a lot of guesses as to how I think they are.
You're right though...if I were to walk into a party of strangers, I would notice looks first...but I have to say...that little smile or smirk on someone that may not have those classic features WOULD be something I'd notice. I couldn't know their personality on first glance...I combined two different scenarios so good point.
But your point about "not being superficial"...that may be true for some women, but I can assure you that it doesn't really apply in my case. No, I don't want to be that way and normally, I would say, I'm not superficial. I DO look at all kinds of qualities before I make a judgement about someone's attractiveness. ANd then there are those guys who I find sexy/yummy/hot on the spot...like Chad from my sophomore year of college. I had no idea if he was smart or funny...he was flat out hot...I didn't care about anything else. So...is that superficial enough to satisfy you?

Sorry ladies - he has a wicked sense of humor, can cook, loves cats, never forgets to flatter, can fix anything and has a cute xyz in jeans with high heel Western boots, picks up a glance or two. What more should I look for?
I am personally a huge fan of Kevin James; I do have a crush on him. He is overweight and not the best looking but he is extremely funny and charming. Looks aren't always all that matters; sometimes a guy might not be the best looking but have something about him that makes him attractive.
What is appealing onscreen and in photographs is different from IRL, as well. And I fully admit that some male actors who I am not impressed by onscreen would probably knock my socks off if I met them in the bar.
I was thinking there are some men, especially really masculine looking men, who women seem to love but men can't understand the attraction.
Ah, I would think that the answer to your question would be rather self-evident. Heterosexual men, and many gay men for that matter, just don't have the same biological lenses for evaluating the "attractiveness" of other men that women have.
Women aren't as visual: a sense of humor, an air of confidence, power, a cute grin, talent, sophistication - to name just a few characteristics - can all trump looks.
Maybe because Patrick Swayze wouldn't let anyone put Baby in the corner? I don't know. His body was hot and I loved his voice and he could dance. I guess he gave off a strong but sweet vibe- at least he did to me.
Agree. He had a flirtatious, seductive, knowing "Rebel Without A Cause" kind of vibe..."I'm a bad boy, do you want to be a bad girl, at least for a little while?"
He was attractive. He wasn't classicly handsome, but definitely an attraction.

I like Kevin James' "guy's guy" appeal. Good boyfriend material. If a woman knows how to work with him, could possibly turn him in to husband material...
Oh wait, I think he was on a TV show where a woman tried that with him! See, casting office? Listen to the viewers! They KNOW!
