I'm getting the sense that many men on this forum think that all women are looking for the same type of man. I'm conducting an experiment on perception. Based on my profile pic alone, what type of man do you all think I would be attracted to (both in physical and personality attributes)?

Does this question assume that people are attracted to those who look similar to themselves???

Otherwise it's a total shot in the dark.

"his question?" -- I'm a woman. See pic.
My question assumes nothing. I'm just trying to gauge whether men perceiving that I wouldn't be attracted to them has anything to do with their decision not to come talk to me in public.

Haha.


I don't understand the approaching random people out and about in any situation. It doesn't make any sense to me.

Someone 25 to 30 yrs. old...preferably closer to 30. Someone with a decent job, but money isn't the most important thing to you. Someone independent, and probably someone who shares a sports interest with you. Just guessing, but I'd say baseball.


While you're probably not a die hard active sports person, you like to be outside...possibly camping or fishing...something like that, so you'd want someone who enjoys the outdoors as well.


There. That's my perception. But I'm a girl.

I'm not talking about if men saw this exact picture on an online dating forum.
I mean if they saw me - at a Starbucks.

It was a typo. I saw your pic.

Do you usually have resting ****** face? Maybe that's a factor.

Why would someone walk up to you at a Starbucks unless they're working there to serve you?


People drinking coffee is hardly something fascinating that people rarely have in common.
