<p>Physical: Tall, good hair, fairly skinny/fit, eyes, hands,
Other: Wit and being clever/funny is v. important, as is intelligence and confidence to a degree. I tend to like both outgoing, and shyer types.</p>
<p>lol. omg how can i forget this one thing!</p>
<p>i have this thing for guitars...or guitarists. lol. i don't like the punk type, but if a guy can play some really nice guitar, that's a major turn on. <em>big smile across face</em></p>
<p>intelligence...
=]</p>
<p>To me hotness has nothing to do with if I want to date someone. To appease DoveofPeace, I'll let the reader assume what hotness means to me.</p>
<p>For me to ask a girl out, physical beauty is good but not exactly everything. Mostly I like someone who can deal with my almost constant "humor." I've found that I pretty much contain every sense of humor imaginable (except dead baby jokes, those are uncool) and it's good that a girl has at least some sort of funny bone that I can stimulate. Intelligence is good, but boast fulness (is that a word?) is bad. Actually right now I know someone who wants me to ask her out but I'm not going to do it. She's far too competitive and is determined to beat my SAT score. Other than that I just need someone who I can have fun with, a true companion.</p>
<p>There's a space in boast*fulness because of the language filter.</p>
<p>indie, I'm more into girls but I've been with the same guy for nearly two years.</p>
<p>And why do you call me romantic gypsy eyes? Lol. It's Romani (gypsy) which I am the descendant of.</p>
<p>Soooo many different things about a person can be hot.... it can honestly be the way they laugh or something. I consider a person hot when they catch my eye for a few seconds... for a good reason, obviously. My ex-boyfriend (dated for two years) had the exact same unusual color eyes as me. That was hot :-)</p>
<p>Ooh...for me, dark hair is a real turn-on. I don't why, but I generally don't like blond guys.</p>
<p>Grades, eloquence, class, and ambition are important too.</p>
<p>I agree with Narcissa. A guy that is smart - in whatever he is interested in - is HOT. Someone who has this desire to learn and looks at the world, constantly trying to learn from it...someone I can respect and that will respect me.</p>
<p>Hair seems to be a big topic on this...I don't really care. Lol. I've been with the same guy for about 3 years, and he's blond. I'm a brunette...It doesn't really matter to me. I'm usually physically attracted to darker haired people, though. But that might just be because there are more of them :)</p>
<p>I'll describe my boyfriend b/c that might give better judgment of my "taste" than I can -
Blonde, blue eyes, 6'2'', he's not this huge muscular person but he is muscular and lean (plays tennis very regularly + swims...well, surfs)...The first thing that attracted me was his...hmm. smirk. Yeah. The way he looks at people sometimes is really interesting. He's really insightful and easy going (and outgoing) with people, which most people find surprising for a "math geek"</p>
<p>I like boys who are intelligent (not “book smart” necessarily), confident (not arrogant), and know how to hold a decent conversation. Dark hair. Green or blue eyes. Some boys have really attractive smirks. Oh, and I love poetry so anyone who appreciates poetry is good. If he likes indie then we’re probably soul-mates.</p>
<p>Oh, I figured out the trend.</p>
<p>1- Smart (doesn't necessarily need a 4.0 GPA or whatever, but he needs to be interested in something and be capable of having an intelligent conversation with me)
2- Reasonably fit (I'm not asking for a god, just someone who takes care of himself and doesn't just waste away all day in front of a computer/TV screen)
3- SENSE OF HUMOR. This is the most important. I have to be able to laugh with a guy.</p>
<p>Oh, and girls also don't like boys who are chronic liars. I'm guessing the reverse is true, too. Some guys don't get this.</p>
<p>Intelligent and lively. Having intelligent conversations, well debates, is my #1. If I can't respect your mind, how can I respect you in general?</p>
<p>And, as someone else mentioned, humor. It doesn't matter what TYPE. Just that it exists. </p>
<p>Oh, and not having a one-track mind. That's a big one right there.</p>
<p>I like my musicians. But of course they have to play good music, but they don't even have to be that good looking for them to be attractive, as long as they're music can evoke some sort of emotion in me combined with holding a guitar and singing. To illustrate my point, a went to a Modest Mouse concert and all while playing I found Isaac Brock (who is an ugly man) to be very sexy. It's really strange how that happens. So just imagine when someone who is actually good looking (Alex Turner) has a guitar and is singing. It is overwhelming. </p>
<p>But unfortunately at my school there aren't any good musicians and I'm generally not very into the boys I interact with everyday because they're pretty lame and often have bad taste in music. If I'm going to date a guy he has to 1) have good taste in music, 2) be reasonably intelligent so we can carry on thought-provoking conversations, and 3) be reasonably good-looking (preferably nice eyebrows and hands) and have that beautiful skinny look about them.</p>
<p>^ I was literally a FOOT away from Alex Turner while I was backstage at one of his concerts (I volunteered for the venue), but security soon realized what I was up to and told me to leave lol.</p>
<p>Physical stuff: </p>
<p>I've noticed that recently I've been loving those half-spanish, half-white guys...Scandinavians are wonderful, too! but honestly, I'm not picky, haha. As long as they're decent looking. I HATE that nonsense emo hair though, it's just trying too hard. The unkempt, short hair look is the way to go. I never really notice the eyes that much, eyes are just eyes to me lol. TONED bodies are great, it just shows me that he takes care of himself (which means he should NOT be afraid to use LIP BALM! because I ain't kissin' no chapped lipz).</p>
<p>As far as dress goes...as long as it's normal, I don't care. No ghetto stuff and no baggy pants/shirts, please, though skinny jeans are good!</p>
<p>Personality/Interests/Other things:</p>
<p>Nice, NEAT, somewhat humble (haha), the right balance of confidence, understanding, unselfish, HONEST. That's the basic foundation. He should be sensitive, too, but not to the degree where he can't take a joke.</p>
<p>I'm not sure if I have a type because my taste is all over the place, but if I have a type, it'd be that indie intellectual boy...oh man! I agree with gub that a good taste in music is HUGE because it is such a big part of who I am. I want someone who loves going to concerts as much as I do. A musician isn't necessary, but it's great if they are, because a lot of guys think that just because they know how to play a guitar makes them a musician, when in fact they make rather uninspired, all around *****ty music. I think it would be cute if he knew how to play this completely random instrument, like an accordion or something LOL, especially if he was good at it!</p>
<p>Obviously I like guys who are smart, which doesn't necessarily mean they have that perfect GPA or whatever, but he should be well cultured, have a passion, and be someone who I can have thought provoking conversations with. Also, it's so hot when I see a guy reading a good book for FUN. </p>
<p>A sense of humor is a MUST because I love to laugh/make others laugh and not take everything too seriously. But of course he should know when or when not to be serious, too. I highly value individuality, and it automatically annoys me whenever someone is doing something just to look "cool."</p>
<p>"if I have a type, it'd be that indie intellectual boy...oh man!"</p>
<p>interesting...</p>
<p>:D</p>
<p>Well so far I see everyone has determined that by defining what we consider HOT takes two routes...the physical and the non-physical. One can't work without the other...I can't date someone who is hot but doesn't have a great personality, and vice versa!!</p>
<p>I like a guy who is outgoing, fun, maybe even a little conceited. If a guy doesn't even like himself how am I suppose to like him? Oh and if he has a genuine good sense of humor (not ANNOYING, PERVERTED, or IMMATURE humor) then that automatically makes him hot. I am really not into the romantic types, all that mushy love stuff, NO THANKS. I'd rather have someone who was sweet but not psycho. If he is dedicated to something he loves (preferance to sports! I don't like musicians...at all) then that shows he cares about something enough to work hard. Also if he's lazy there is no chance.</p>
<p>Now for the good stuff...lol. Taller than me. Athletic. Must have a great smile! Dresses well (as in no dog collars or shirts that say "if you could read my mind I'd be killing you" or w/e). I like the pretty boy athletic type haha. Hair color doesn't really matter, anywhere from short to medium length). I'm not really picky with all the details...I guess just if he looks good :)</p>
<p>art_star, I was a centimeter away from Alex Turner because even though the security guards were trying to get rid of me, Alex was nice enough to take a picture with me.</p>
<p>actually, I just read the rest of your post and pretty much have to agree all around.</p>
