It seems like alot of this conversation is old(er) people talking past young(er) people.

"I'm shallow! So's everyone I know!" - 20-something

"I really see so much more than that." - old fogies

Like I said, though, that observation's not a dig.
23-year-olds who act and think like 23year-olds are great!
43-year-olds who act and think like 23-year-olds are usually pretty awful.
And broke.

I kind of laugh a bit at that one, no money, no looks, but "I demand at least an 8!"

Or even worse, they wear the gear of the 20 something, it looks bad on them but they have no idea it looks bad they think they are being hip.

My son rates everyone as if they were a car.

The level of it surprises me but I think back to a guy I knew and he was the same way but I did not realize it until I saw my son.

Yes, looks are important to me. Very important. But so are many other things.

She said women would be a lot happier if they approached dating like men who are a lot more open minded about who they date. I thought the whole thing was really bizzare because usually men get the bad rap for being too picky. Have to say there is a lot of truth to what she was saying, but that's my opinion.

I don't agree, in a way. My problem with therapists, coaches and most people in general society is that no one is real. So, if you can be real, you have something to offer.

It is nice to be all fake and spiritual and @$## but that won't help anyone.

All woman want that, even the ones who say that don't. That is one man's opinion.

You sure do have a lot to say (not just here) about what "all women" want for someone who believes so strongly in astrology. Astrology should tell you that we're not all like you.

Oh don't worry, I know you can't defend your position as it's irrational so you'll just retreat in how "smart" you are and don't have time for it, just withdraw until it's time to sling another of your nonsensical zingers. It's just I get really peeved when others tell me that I am lying if I claim to be my own person rather than just another psychic clone of the speaker. When you and others like you (who, btw, sometimes disagree with you on what "all women want" and thus say it's YOU who's lying about what you, and all other women, want) say that then that's also saying that what I have to say about myself doesn't matter, only what the speaker says matter, and by extension that only the speaker matters, not anyone else.

Relax. You missed the one man's opinion

He's a Pisces.

That said, I think in general men tend to be more visual creatures than women are.

I have Gemini in Venus. I can honestly say that I can easily be attracted to someone because of their mind when I may not have been attracted to them in the beginning. Their wit, humor, intelligence can be a huge turn on and make them really sexy. That doesn't mean I'd be attracted to the Elephant Man just because he was smart and funny... but it does make me give someone a second glance if you know what I mean.

There's a homing device in my pants. If I don't get a tight-in-my-pants sensation, I would be polite and cordial but there wouldn't be a missile lock and I wouldn't have the slightest interest.

Looks matter tremendously to me.

My son needs what I tell Aquaguy he needs, a life coach who has experience socially and understands both men and woman.

I promptly volunteered myself

At any rate, I am surprised how much he judges woman just on appearance as if someone has little value if they don't look good.

I wonder if this is just part of a man's visual make-up. I am not judging. I was just really surprised.

I'm the type of person that I have to feel a mental-emotional connection to them, they become unbelievably attractive in my eyes.

I've had about 2-3 instances where I was immediately attracted to physical looks. It kind of shamed me because I'm not used to being attracted to a person like that.
