If you are looking for a long term relationship and companion than obviously personality plays its role. But the point im trying to make, is that its not the most important thing to men, and is way less important than physical beauty and attraction. With that said, plenty of guys put up with hot women, even though they have aweful personalities.

No guy with any ounce of self respect puts up with a girl he doesn't like, just because she's good looking. I think what they're saying is that guys are always attracted to looks first, and it's much more important for guys. If we see a hot girl, you bet your butt we're going to go talk to her, regardless of thinking about what her interests might be.

If we talk to her and she sucks... well we'd move on to the next hot girl. I think he meant that, more than putting up with a not so nice girl because she's hot. Leave that to the guys who have no self respect.

That may be how you operate - but I don't think that's how all men operate. I'm not disputing the fact that you need to be attracted to a woman but you are making it seem that a man would marry someone who they found just satisfactory in the personality department as long as she was hot. I think most men do care about personality a great deal - as long as he is attracted to her in the first place. Like I said - I think it's 100% looks and 100% personality.

I don't think he feels the same way you do - but I'm more inclined to say that more men think they way that you do as opposed to the way he does.

I said on the first or second page that I absolutely care about her personality. There's NO man on this planet that doesn't

Well, there seem to be some in this thread that don't!
But I agree with you - like I said, I'm pretty sure that all the guys that dated me liked me for my looks AND my personality.

Who do you think you are kidding with this stuff?
So having kids isn't important to men lol? A woman's prime fertility age is her 20's, we think about that stuff especially if talking about a long term partner where kids are likely involved

Where did I say having kids wasn't important? I didnt, Brad.

What I was basically saying is they use the most B.S. excuses to explain why they are certain ways or think certain ways. I prefer to call a spade, a spade.

They are not looking at some 22 year old with perky t*ts for her fertility benefits . The fact that some men try to trot that excuse out as believable is laughable.

She needs support, protection and someone to provide for her while she is raising the offspring. But none of those things can be told about a man by the way he looks.

This is why mans behavior and personality are far more important than his looks or attractivness. Consider this, some years ago there was research done with many participants, and it turned out that almost all men are able to tell if a woman whom they have never met would make a suitable mate, by simply looking at her picture. But when the women were asked the same question, very few could tell if a strange man in the picture, would make a suitable mate. Its our nature and this is how we are meant to be, so there is no reason to criticize anyone for it.
What do you mean by youthfulness?
