Here is the kicker: I don't date Democrats though.
That's a shame.

1) Poor hygiene
2) Unkemptness (not that one has to look their best, but no effort on outward appearance at all, will likely repel, think Charles Schultz "pigpen" character in Charlie Brown and Snoopy)
3) Distracted / not focused or acknowledging the other person
4) Strange body movements (twitches)
5) Apparent visual poor health or obviously under the influence (can not carry on rational conversation - nor process one)
6) Inordinately tiny or large person of opposite sex (extreme outliers)
7) Seemingly crazy behavior

These will generally keep most everyone away.

Women who curse or use words like "dude" generally make me lose interest in talking to them.

When it comes to interests that people have in common or not, if you mention, say, a show you're into:

"So do you watch Game of Thrones?"

...and the other person says, "No, sorry, haven't had a chance to get into that."

You might be able to tell a short, relatable anecdote that has something to do with the conversation, like "Oh, OK well I was just reminded of something one of the characters said <quote> that was very similar to what you were just talking about there."

But you do not lecture them on how they really need to watch it unless you are offering to snuggle on the couch and binge watch it with them to get them into it, nor do you go on and on about the minutia of that particular thing once it's established that the other person won't have any idea what you're talking about. This isn't just about TV shows, though. One date asked me if I was into superhero comics. Then, although I said no, he launched into a very detailed discourse about his collection. Not only am I not into superhero comics, I will never be into superhero comics. I was put off by his overnerding. It was too much.

Some of that I can take, after all, I'm nerdy about GWAR and bring them up a lot, but I'm socially aware enough to recognize disconnection in my audience, and let conversation get elsewhere as soon as I see that. It's the ones who don't recognize that conversational discomfort and keep on geeking out that are shooting themselves in the foot. Male or female.

As a woman, I am put off also when a man is visibly nervous and can't relax, even after some time has gone by in the date. It's OK to have some nerves at first, but if he behaves as though he's frightened of me, the whole time? Nah.

My conversations with women are usually very superficial. They aren't much interested in guy stuff, football, motorcycles, etc.

I'm usually happy to talk to any woman..
But somethings that bother me is when I'm ignored by a woman??
Ignoring a guy is a great way to break off any friendship you had.

Things that women hate:
All sorts of things.
Most notable is if you don't take them on dates / buy them things.

^.^

Obviously the setting in which you are meeting each other changes things sometimes.
But these are things that I think are somewhat universal.

Excessive giggling. Seriously, you are a grown woman, that stopped being cute one HS ended. I'm trying to have an adult convo with you and you don't take me seriously enough to not giggle like a schoolgirl. Bye Felicia.

Women who claim they like guys with tattoos generally make me lose interest in them real fast.

I don't like that either those women belong in an asylum. Learn to take something seriously. No woman seems to do that.
