LOL. Did you ever watch Mystery Science Theater 2000?
That's what my friends said we were like, except with far more beer involved

To me, as long as you are not annoying, are reasonably attractive and fit, have a job and put out frequently and consistently plus show some enthusiasm while doing so, you are good to go for me. I don't care what race you are, short or tall, big or small boobs, blonde or brunette, whatever. I do have some religious and political lines however, that I draw after the first 2 or 3 meetups though.
I think in the beginning of a 'relationship' most guys don't care because they have a woman willing to get down and dirty with them. After that newness wears off, the nit pickiness comes into play. I've talked to many of my guy friends who complain about silly stuff regarding their girlfriends appearance....everything from the way their boobs sit to their oddly shaped toenails. One of my friends even offered to pay for a boob job for his ex because her boobs were 'slightly different'. She had always been fine with them and after that, she obsessed about the very small size difference.
I was in San Marco, Venice, Italy on vacation once not too long ago. Remember those commericals where the husband surprises his wife with a big fat diamond ring in that same place, as the pigeons flap around?
So as we are leaving the square, my wife gets pouty and says she was expecting something like that.
I said "Do we have $5000 laying around that I don't know about?"

So yeah...
Most women are in their forties before they realize that money doesn't grow on trees.
Younger horny guys try to make them believe that it does.
I think I agree with wanneroo. Cosmo typically has pretty explicit stuff on its cover, like "10 Tips to Drive your Man Wild in Bed," "The Sexual Trick That Will Have Him Screaming for More," "How to Make Him Beg For It," and frequent references to the G-spot or orgasms. It's pretty common around here to see Cosmo covered up in the grocery aisles, because enough people complained about children seeing that stuff.
Cosmo is pretty tawdry compared to other women's mags, even the other fashion types.
I was referring to the explicitness of the models on the magazine covers (which I believe wanneroo was also referring to).
I think films....particularly 'Chick Flicks'....give Women unrealistic expectations about EVERYTHING.
Chick Flicks show the World as if it really worked like the lowest-common-denominator Female Brain worked.
The rest of Moviedom seems to show the world as if it works like a really, really stupid drugged-out, lowest-common-denominator Male Brain works.
Except, there are the 'artistic films', which show the world through the eyes of a Schizophrenic with 'Creative' pretensions.
None of these models are of much use to one who is trying to learn about the World. Maybe that's why we have so many people running around practically hard-wired with grotesquely distorted views of Life and how things work.
And yeah, films teach Women to go after just the strangest and most dysfunctional chaps.
No Cosmo covers are not as explicit as Maxim or FHM, etc. Not even close. Different posing, outfits, amount of nudity, etc. You are just looking for a double standard there.
Besides, the checkout area has more fashion, lifestyle, cooking, and tabloid magazines.
Maxim and FHM don't have explicit covers at all; Typically, just women in bathing suits or workout clothes, very similar to Cosmo covers. BTW, Maxim and others are just Cosmo for men. No nudity or erotic stuff, just articles catering to men.

Thats funny, because its true.
But would you care to elaborate on frequently and consistantly?
I find Maxim to be of better quality and I like reading it. I used to read Cosmo, but it seems like they dust the same ol' crap every couple of years and I got tired of it.
