What attracts you?

Been thinking lately (always dangerous I know) about what attracts me, visually that is. The wife is always asking if I find that actress or that model sexy, attractive, whatever and I normally find my self answering "no", or "not really". Conversely, when I spot someone I do find pretty, sexy or attractive, she usually thinks I'm mad!!
Trusth is I can't really think what attracts me. Sure, I see lots of women I look at and like but they don't seem to have anything obvious in common. What I guess I'm trying to say is that it's not about height, hair/eye colour or anything obvious like that, so what is it about then?? I'm baffled.
It's true to say I normally like younger women with a relatively curvy shape but if I think back to past girlfriends and those unfortunate enought to be the objects of youthful crushes, they were all quite different.
I'm wondering if, for me, anyway the initial attraction is something about the relative relationship between various features rather than what those features actually are.... if that makes sense. confused
So people, what do you think? Am I talking garbage again? What attrracts you?
BTW, please don't anyone think it's only looks which are important to me (if you could see me you'd realise I wouldn't be so judgemental smile ). For me, personality is far more important and that's the main reason why we haven't just jumped into a swinging experience with strangers. If/when we go further, it'll have to be with people we know, like and trust.
If I can make a girl laugh, I become attracted to her!
If I can make her come, I fall in lust with her.
If she can put up with me for more than a few days, I fall in love with her!
kind of makes sense,
if anybody does figure out a formula for what attracts people, please let me know would, it'd be very useful
Didnt i read somewhere that its all to do with pheromones and that we are attracted to people whose chemical make-up is similar to our own???
What attract me generally is a pleasant face/smile, a gsoh, something going on between the ears and most importantly someone prepared to put up with my complete ditzy moments lol
oh and if you're good in bed even better :shock:

If someone shows an interest in me, then I like them.
If they flirt a lot then I become attracted to them.
If they sleep with me then I LOVE them lol :lol:
I might be odd (understatement of the year) but I like someone who plays hard to get, but leaves plenty of hints that they're interested. I love the chase of getting a woman.

I saw a Robert Winston programme that argued the opposite. I think it was something to do with making sure your children had a good combination of your immune systems.
And, by the way, nice to see another Richard Bach fan.

Not many playing hard to get round here lol
As far as personality is concerned, I find humour attractive in men. If someone can make me laugh, I love it. I also quite like what might be termed old fashioned values, such as kindness and politeness and find that attractive when I meet someone.
If you are chatting with someone online, the personality obviously comes first because you can’t see them. And personally I don’t think looks are of huge importance, but I do have a preference for a certain ‘type’ but that doesn’t mean that I haven’t been very attracted to people outside of that type.....and enjoyed my time with them.
But if I was choosing what I liked from just the way someone looked then it's all in the eyes. Not necessarily the colour, but maybe just that little twinkle. wink
Think it would be easier to reply to 'what doesn't attract you' - list would be much shorter!!
The word I would use is presence.
Why are some women (and men, I guess) of all shapes and sizes sexy, but others of a similar shape & size are not? They have presence - I am here, this is me, I am interesting in my own right, etc.
Why are lapdancers good at their job? They have presence (any lapdancers on here care to comment?)
I guess it's the X-factor.

i've found that as im becoming more advanced in aged rolleyes im attracted to different things than when i was younger.I cant quite put my finger on it but it can be their smile,their voice or even the way they dress.I tend to find lots of women attractive lol
BIG willies wink
Confidence and a total lack of awareness of their own attractiveness.. it's the one's that know it that are the worse :twisted:

fussy arent you lol
i did not say it was a necessacity - just enough to get me interested...
although someone who owns a bar of soap and deodrant would not go amiss....
I used to talk to a girl on the phone for work, I spoke to her a couple of times a week to start, we laughed and joked, then it turned to inuendoes (sp) and then downright lust.
I arranged to meet her and what a shock, she was everything that I had imagined, and that she had told me, large girl sz 18ish, brunette, but what I hadn't got over the phone was that she was 'kin ugly, with as much facial hair a I have, and her personal hygene was none existant, saw her once, wined, dined and put in a cab. :cry:
Other than that, not too bothered about age, colour, like nice eyes, hair. Body wise, err,don't do thin, would have to be sz14 minimum, no upper limit really, my wife is 18/20 and I love her to bits. Like a nice pair of boobs, don't do fried eggs, like a tummy, and large bum. Not into legs either.
My best mate and his wife thinks im a few sandwiches short of a picnic, he likes kelly brook, whoever is on page 3 that day, the obvious ones
i like phillippa forrester, cos she doesnt take it all too serious, i like charlotte church cos she has curves and refuses to become a stick insect , i like jo frost, purely cos of the way she askes if you have been naughty, i like lorraine kelly cos there is something i dont quite know what, i like sarah beeny cos she looks like filth (to me) and wears leather..
id rather be laughed at for the variety of women that attracts me, then be stuck with one stereotype like rod stuart - yes blondes are lovely, but but he has missed out on brunetts
there, now i have embarrassed myself, i will let you carry on lmao

Forgot that one, yes must be clean (at least to being with :twisted: )
The most important thing is confidence - if someone feels good about themselves then that rubs off and you feel better about them.
But it's got to be real confidence - not just cocky front. A sort of 'im comfortable with me and i like me' sort of thing.
Brains, and a passion for life.
That's all it takes...
The ability to hold a conversation and make me laugh
Physically across a crowded room, someone with a really good laugh, one of those head-thrown-back open mouthed laughs. Nice eyes and smile, squidgable bum :smitten: and as mentioned in another thread, initially, a close cropped haircut with a goatee beard.
None of the above are mutually exclusive though, as long as the first point is there, none of the rest of it matters too much if there's some kind of chemistry going on :twisted:
Intelligence, creativity, passion for something outside themselves, the ability to make me laugh, a sense that they're comfortable with who they are, a sense that they're comfortable with who I am, a propensity for silliness and drunken misbehaviour, the ability to work out when I'm trying to be funny biggrin , the ability to work out when I need to be listened to - the ability to listen to me when I need it. Interesting thoughts, an interesting past, the ability to take the piss out of themselves.
And I tend to find that once I'm attracted to someone's personality, I find something (or everything!) in their looks that does it for me as well.
