I remember my doctor once told me that 'when women try to get with men, they tend to go more for their personality than their looks'

this is just coming to the point of 'do people judge things by their covers?' or 'good looking guys get it all'

but i'm curious as to do girls dig guys moreso if they are good looking than an average Joe...i mean would a girl be more intersted in a guy if they were good looking??

some people say 'na couples are found on by one - anothers behavious'...but i'm curious as to is this true??

note **when i mean good looking i mean something like Bradd Pitt.... Colin Farrell...Orlando Bloom etc etc NOT by slim and fat**

please give me your views because I and surely others would be interested! Guys also pitch in about girls too!

An age old question, do the good looking bishies get home runs?
I say yeah, in a sense, partly because I believe in order to get to know someone you must be physically attracted to that person said, I myself felt that way for girls, although I do not mind to know a few lesser attractive ones.
However, beauty is in the eye of the beholder, one may not realize who the other perception of beauty is, and normally enough, it was not something that we can generalize.
Just because the face of the bishie is good enough to appear on the magazine does not mean he is a good person in there.
What you don't know is the personality. Now, what I think is that girls tend to be attracted to mature looking guys, as proven by my last year's visit to the old high school of mine, which prompted some rather weird responses when I realized after announcing my arrival as a senior, girls were like "oh my, look, that is our senior, he has come to give us that presentation, is he gonna be a teacher? I so wanted him to be a teacher, even a temporary one is fine too" Of course, this is relative to the matter of age, and depending on how one views as a personal taste.

For me, this experience taught me one thing, it brought about the idea of surface attractiveness, though I may not look like a star faced bishie, girls of a younger age may feel attracted to people with a seniority age, which again may depend on various factors and taste.

On topic wise, do the guys with good looks always gets the girls? I believe so, as that add the attractiveness value physically. When you can attract the opposite sex (or similiar gender, depending on taste and preference) you will tend to have more chance of scoring a meet, a telephone number and a good home run for the long term.

I say pretty much, I have to say people, at least in society wise, will always judge a book by its cover, hence why make up, designs, designer wear gets so much attention, deservingly or undeservingly.

No matter what you say, people male and female ALWAYS and firstly look after how the person looks, no matter HOW nice you would like to be, thats how it is, after the looks are a ''okey'' and abov the personality comes, if thats a bad one, mean and yeah so on, the person will most likly not be with that person, BOTH things has to be ''okey'' to start somthing, i am sure no one would go out with a X(imagion the X is somthing, dunno what)

lets take, nah i whont say anything now, it could easily offend some people.

^ that`s true...always, no matter what they say the first impression (which is in most cases the most important one) comes from the physical side, and the psychological aspects of the person only start to be important after you get to know him/her, but as someone in another forum said: If you`re not attractive at all (or ugly, which is the same) how do you expect the other person to want to know more about you? btw, I know this doesn`t apply to every case, but those lucky ones are more like the exception to the rule...

Tru, people look at you and judge you no matter what, but if you look good but
ur a bad person, meaning bad personality, your looks don matter
no girl will go 4 you if she noes your a bad person, but there are
xceptions to this sometimes, nd two of my frends are in danger of bein
played by my former friend, i warn them, they noe how he really is, but
they still chill wit him, hmmmm i wonder whats the reason

Well, I agree with my fellows. Sight is the first point of contact for most introductions. Being physically appealling is an edge. It is an open door that many girls will go through. I think it is too complicated to deal with an actual Brad Pitt because fame plays a part in opening doors at that point, but if we look at someone on his level of attractiveness, but lacking the fame... you have to understand that most people are capable of behaving in a semi-reasonable fashion durring an initial introduction. Lets take guy A who looks like Brad Pitt versus guy B who looks like your next-door neighbor. Both are at a bar. All it takes for guy A is one semi-forward girl to feel like walking up to him bring the rest of them over with comfortable. Guy B is going to have to take his own initiative or hope that some friend of his will do it for him. Attractive people are exactly that. They pull at people to overcome shyness or whatever reservations and begin contact. All a guy has to do after contact is behave well and he is good to begin whatever he seeks. Since women can be just a base as men about scoring points and making other people jealous, you have to understand that being attractive is a open for a man to take advantage of that to get where he wants. I'm just lucky enough to recognize the entire pattern and look beyond the physical to whatever subtle hints about personality appear beneath the gloss. Looks are the fire-engine red fingernail polish on a woman's toe-nails that remind you look beneath the surface.

There is one time when looks don't matter a jack:

When you flaunt a bucketful of cash in front of her. Then you could be the ugliest son-of-a-bitch on earth and she would love you for it. :D

Hmm... =3 well, i can really relate to what you guys are trying to say. For one, it is true that when you first meet someone, you judge them by their looks. As long as you don't know them as well then, you will somehow try to guess their personality from there. The cruel truth isnt it?

Good looking guys have it good, but if they don't know how to be a nice, mature and responsible person, in the long run, they lose out. Girls at a younger age may go for bishie looking guy, but when we get older, specifically women, they tend to look for guys whom they know will have a solid future and they can settle down with to start a family. Well, its just my way of interpreting things, though i may be wrong since i'm no girl.

On my side, i think that i'm the one loosing out now haha... somehow all the nice girls i meet are all the bishie lookers... I don't really play the part as a good looking guy (at least i think so, though i have had girls fall for me, god knows what they were thinking) and well, it was always never me. So with that said, i am not realyl ashamed to say that i've been single up to now... =P yup... i'm nearly 19 and still single =3 but hell, i don't care.

hmm... i guess that all i gotta say for now... Girls, if you're reading this, try to correct me wherever possible... =P

You know, girls arent as visual as guys, they do tend to go for what's on the inside more than the outside.
[I know I do] Even If a guy is so GL, what girls see in them first is their personality. If they are rude and crude, but GL, it doesnt work out for them. Girls want guys that are gentle, kind and with a great personality, and not a jerk.

I basically agree with everyone else about good looks being better than bad looks (duh). I do have something to add, though. The tallness factor.

I saw a TV show once where they got these male volunteers of different heights (like, 5.5 ft. vs. 6 ft.) to go into a bar and mingle with women. After a while (not really enough time to learn personality), they polled the women about how well they thought the men were at protecting them, etc. At the end they added it all up, and it was clear the women gave all the tall guys better scores than the short guys. It was really interesting.

So anyway, If you're tall and ok looking, you might be better off than a short good looking guy.

Just something to think about...

Easy for me... i prefer azn guys.. they dont have to be hot.. just azn haha :)

IMO, it differs from each girl and that age and maturity plays a major role. *Most* young girls tend to find a guy who is good lucking. The other percentage of girls look for personality. And as girls get younger, personality tends to override looks. Anyways this is just my view, could be wrong...

that`s funny, but most man will go with any woman willing to go with him, and all great girls i know ended up with a good looking asshole filled with cash ^_^

and about finding a partner, i think the worst you can do is look for one, if you`re constantly looking for it, u`ll find it, but in the hurry probably wont be what you where looking for in the first place...

Looks matter, even tho how much a girl deny it, its obvious that they wont date a really ugly dude. sorry if that was bold

Well, when you look at a book, you judge the cover, and then it's up to you to go and read it.

I s'pose its a lot like a person. If the person looks approachable, they'll be a sure hit.
