Yes. The guy I am interested in is probably a 5 at most but his personality increases his looks.

As well as in my opinion most guys personality are essentially the same- they want to bust a nut and they want their egos pandered to.
I hate those types of guys. I can smell a man only into me for my looks a mile away and I would never consider him.

Yep. Their interests, intelligence, compassion, humor, etc are all more important to me.

Edit: I don't care how 'hot' someone is - If we don't have anything in common, don't share some similar interests, or they're jerks, or have no sense of humor, etc... They're simply not attractive to me.

Fortunately I found someone perfect for me years ago But the poll was answered honestly.

Can't argue for the most part.

But I also will say women are no different. And at least more men are being honest in this poll.

And if you think about the fact that many men do find 5s 'sexually attractive, snapshot off the bat, she hasn't even opened her moth yet' it makes it even more so.

This is completely and utterly against what I observe both in real life and on CD forums as well. Women who reject guys who have good personalities and are decent looking ALL THE TIME.
The poll results for the women match up with my experiences. The 9 personality should include a good amount of confidence and chutzpah. So if the great personality isn't readily apparent early on then it is a lot harder.

Possibly gals are different considering unlike guys they're probably placed in the position to choose from attraction or personality since in general it seems:
Guys choose who they approach so likely they choose the attractive ones
Gals choose from who approaches them so likely they are faced with a range of attractiveness

In your opinion men are more honest in this poll as I highly doubt you have the evidence to make a factual claim that men are being more honest in this poll.

More of them chose no...

That is my evidence!

Amusing 'logic'.

Do tell how more of them choosing no = men are more honest in this poll?

It's easy. Men are coming clean about being shallow. Women are not.
