I don't do stoners or drunks.
Been there done that...refuse to repeat the experience.

I avoided the weight one because NOBODY agrees with the word "obese".
And I don't think it's that important.

I'd have to know what the felonies were before I could honestly answer that one.

I'd like to make mention of the "lives with parents (over 30)" one. I don't care if he has a good excuse (saving up money to buy a house, etc), that's a HUGE turn-off. If we wanted to spend time together, where would we go? Cuddle on mom and dad's couch? Ick...

This is coming from a woman who practically RAN out of mom and dad's house the day she turned 18 and never looked back. Is it weird that I am so unattracted to this?

I don't get it,fishing is one of the most popular outdoors activities,and many many women fish also.Plus it is one of the most popular foods and is considered healthy overall.So why does anyone dislike fishing?

But that's alright,Lizcab says a gun collection is a turnoff but if she ever comes over I promise to put sheets over my three safes.

I think it's mostly urban people that don't like it.

No it is NOT weird! I moved out at 17 and would have at 12 if they woulda let me! Not that my parents were mean/bad, I just wanted to be on my own and make my own rules!

Living in Florida and lived in Miami for most or my life,a huge huge metro area alot of people of all walks love to fish,specially boating and fishing.

Even where I am now,another part of Florida fishing is still the most popular activity overall.Interestingly while I have gone fishing it is not a hobby of mine overall,though sometimes I think I should do it more.
