I care most about humor and intelligence, but, for the record, I am infinitly more impressed by money than looks.

At least men have the comfort of that lie.

Women are told from birth that their entire value depends on how they look.

This message seeps from every media outlet, unabated, to this day.

There;s a song about that. very nice one. Rap. About how some women are told what's hot, and have to measure up to the famous people, and look a certain way, that sometimes isn't even natural, but regular people can look nice as well. And some of those glamorous stars, aren't as glamorous once all the make-up and lighting comes off of them. And lord knows how much work they had done. There's the saying "You are just seeing the sausage, not how it was made."

We had a thread here where a girl wanted to have a BBL at 19. Her mother, a doctor, was against it, and many posters tried telling her her body was still changing at 19. But she's confident it will make her look better, and feel better about herself. She has tons of money, but is going to use it on cosmetics.

So yeah, seems you see women have this issue more so than men. not to say men don't have issues.

Looks usually spark initial attraction...it's only later you figure out what a DB he can be.

Age difference can help or hinder a relationship. +5-5 isn't bad.

We also care about grammar: you're vs. your.

Once I felt incredible sexual attraction to a guy whos looks I did not even liked. It was his personality. Before I knew he was a jerk Luckily I had no sex with him, waiting time is worth of its meaning
