Yes, I keep insisting that women don't put that much weight on looks, but I am going to give you gentlemen this point.

You know the cell phone ad where Uncle Sam is going to pay for the phone? That Uncle Sam completely creeps me out. He creeps me out so badly, I can't stand to watch the ad.

So, gentlemen, if you are being rejected because you look like that Uncle Sam, I advise you to lose the bow tie, unbutton your top button, change your style of facial hair, and stop stroking your beard. The way that actor is fondling his goatee makes him look suspiciously like his other hand is down the front of his pants, so don't do that either.

But other than that, I still insist that looks are not at the top of the list for selecting a man for a relationship.

Looks not at the top priority for women: I agree.

Looks as an important priority for women: I think it is a factor for most women.

In other words, don't look creepy. I agree!

Also, please don't walk around with a self-inflicted wedgy looking all angry at the world- nobody wants to be around that energy.

So please loosen up those slacks and be proud of your knee highs and suspenders!

When a woman goes for a broke guy, its because he's good-looking, and I've seen women pass on a average-looking but wealthy man, for a retard with no cash and no education but with a heavy bank account.

Poor women want hot men, rich women want richer men.
Thank you, Mr. Authority!

In order to exceed, you must proceed to succeed. Those are the only three words in the English language that end in -ceed.

I haven't seen that commercial but thought I would put some nerd on this thread.

OK...the only conclusion I can come up with in thread is that you date ugly guys. Fine. I think it's oppressive to women to insist they date ugly guys, especially when they are hot. If I had a daughter I would want her to date a hot guy not an ugly guy.

Nonsense, physical attraction is on top of everyone's list when finding a mate; it's the key used to open the door

I completely agree with you. I just don't understand how anyone could be with someone they weren't attracted to. It doesn't mean that other person has to be physically attractive to everyone of course, because looks are entirely subjective.

Looks are the initial priority for me -- I need to be attracted to him. But looks aren't going to get him very far. What kind of man he is trumps looks every time to me.

Agree. I think the important of a guy's looks to women is underestimated in some of these conversations.
