I had a lot to say on this subject but I'd rather not post it on a forum, even if it's as chill as pac west.

It sounded sexist but almost all guys are the same way, it's just whether you know yourself well enough, or in some cases it's whether you want to admit it or not.

This is somewhat shallow but this is how I see it (and I'm sure many girls are the same way):

(7-10): A guy will look for these girls first obviously because they look the best. When they find one, the physical attraction is already there, and their attraction grows or shrinks for them depending on how good their personality is.

(4-6): A guy will be less likely to go for these girls, obviously because they don't look as good. But when you do become attracted to these ones, it's usually someone that you already know and weren't initially attracted to. But when you learn that she has a good personality, both your physical and psychological attraction for her grows.

(1-3): It's definitely shallow, but guys are least likely to shoot in this range unless they're desperate for some action. She pretty much has to be the most amazing girl you've ever met, because otherwise there are plenty of better looking options with equally good personalities.

probably on a platform
80% personality is way too much though LOL in the end we're still guys

i'd like to think i'm not shallow but honestly if you're not hot i don't give you much of a chance
this is so true, and think about it, nerds think nerds look pretty enough to end up with, hotter people normally end up with hotter people, it's all in what you find attractive, i know many nerdy girls i could never date cause they aren't cute enough to me, whereas some of my hall mates think that girl is cute/pretty/hot/etc

if you are trying to pick up a girl you don't know, the first thing you notice is her body

it's kinda how whites end up with whites/think more attractive, asians with asians, etc. although it's not like that's how it happens 100% of the time, it's what happens a good chunk of the time

in the end though, looks matter, but personality can effect the way you see a person

hmmmmm... i'm not sure this came out the way i intended it to...

i actually have very low physical standards (for a guy)

the females have that one right
I do too, but I cant deny Scarlett's physical beauty.

And of course good personalities make a girl hotter. If you enjoy being around her for more than her looks, you just enjoy her company even more

Im so lonely

The problem is you're coming off almost totally across like, "Oh I'm so smart and know myself so well, but in the end I give in to my biological desires, so if I still have to give in to them, everyone does."

No dice.

Anyway, you can tell a lot about a chick's personality from her looks and just a little bit of observation in terms of sentence structure and word usage. So a lot of times I might find a girl attractive because she fits the prejudice of, "Well, if she looks like this and talks like this, her personality is more likely to follow such and such traits that I find attractive." I am very observant and I do this with both males and females alike, of course, but I've found it's a very efficient way to cut through the BS and seek out people you're more likely to get along with.

to me it all depends on what youre looking for. both kira and P have good points but it all depends...

personality only matters if you are looking to create a strong relationship with someone, but if you are like me and just trying to get some *** it really doesn't matter too much.

when i finally do wanna settle with one person, personality is going to be the most important part.

Are you saying you're elevated simply because you don't give in to your biological desires? My biological desires say I should get the hotter girl, but it's not like my consciousness is telling me otherwise.

I do this too, it's both a good and bad thing.

yeah this is pretty much the bottom line

man
so this weird thing has been happening since i came to san jose

back in santa cruz, i was really into a specific type of girl. the indie/hip college girl. whenever i was at a party, i would be gravitate towards them.

in san jose though, i'd see this girls from far away who looked like they were that type. and as i got closer to them, i started to realize they weren't as attractive as i thought.

at first, i was like "man, my radar is just off."

as time went on, i realized why i wasn't as interested in them:
I could tell, and I'm not sure how, that despite them having the same style as the girls back home, there was a different intention and attitude they had.


basically, my point is: two almost identical girls wearing similar style girls can have different levels of hotness because i perceived them as two different types of people.

I simply mean that personality affects one's image. I'm unclear what you mean by the second part of the second thing you said (lol).

that is awesome, thats how it should work.

if it was me, i probably wouldnt have felt a difference much. because i wouldnt care about the attention or attitude they had, since im just trying to get laid.

i meant the "image" you of see someone in your head doesn't change based on personality but your feelings for it can.

***image can mean so many things here. personality affects the way you dress and want people to see you, im assuming you mean that definition of image, and your'e right.

Sorry, haha, whose personality? It's not clear to me. I'm dumb. :p
I'm not sure if you mean that one's image of someone else doesn't change based on that other person's personality, or if you mean that one's image of someone else doesn't change based on one's own personality.

***image can mean so many things here. personality affects the way you dress and want people to see you, im assuming you mean that definition of image, and your'e right.
Yes.

I was arguing that when you initially see a girl, you do see personality.

the way a chick dresses usually has something to do with her personality and her interests, you can see that from a mile away


some *****es are deceptive though
