    When I was young, it was breasts and butts, but having dated a few morons, I grew up (but obviously not enough, because breasts still came in second.) :D

    Yeah, I'm with Depaara.

    I still look at her breasts. Even if they are not big; I sooner turn a girl down because her breasts were too large, than small. But personality is first criteria. I have to be able to stand being around her before I'll work on her body.

    i guess im kinda weird, i like a girl to have a nice back, smooth without spots something which would be nice to slide your hands over.

    but in this poll, eyes come first, i can find alot attractive in a girls eyes

    Intelligence first, then personality. No point hanging around someone who's annoying, less so for someone as smart as a box of hair. If you cannot carry on a conversation, you're wasting my time.

    personality? how can you look for personality first time two people met? flipping between personalities is a very simple thing to do. frankly, you can only look into personality after a long long time of knowing each other, getting together, communication and such.

    Sorry dudes, but you cant FIRST LOOK at someone's prsonality. You always see the looks of someone first. So there was no option 'personality' for me. Personality is second, or third.
    I first look at her eyes. They tell you something about her personality. Then her butt. It tells you something different... Then, when it turns out to be a [insert nasty unfriendly word here], I look at someone else.

    For the people who first look at someone's personality, how do you do that? 'Boy! You're ugly! You must be very kind and funny...' (?)

    Great point MoN. I felt shallow in my answers, but you can't notice a personality on the bus or on the street. Personality can overcome bad looks, great looks very rarely can overcome a bad personality.

    So, to answer the question, eyes & breats would be #1 & #2 ... but eyes & hair are also nice!

    :good:

    [​IMG] I can look at someones personality :good:
    1) people usually approach me
    2) I often notice/see things people miss
    3) My social life is on a MUD :lol:

    Anyway it's to look at when you meet a new person :p

    If you were at a pub and you saw someone new would you look straight at their arse? :hahaerr:

    Not too many girls answering up yet

    eyes
    personality

    I think I can see a personality when I see a person. Body language is my specialty!

    Personality and a very good sense of humour are the most important things. Besides that, I like eyes and a nice smile. I also like fairly big guys (read: Tall and broad).

    I like the eyes and legs. I agree that personality is difficult to gauge. Perhaps before you answer the poll, imagine that there are ten guys/gals in a line. None of them are talking or moving about. Which would you want to meet first and why?

    Yep difficult to answer as it depends on how you interpret the question. What do you look 'for' or look 'at.' When you're sitting on a bus (to use Mat's example) a nice figure (whichever part or the whole) jump out at you :eek: . Making eye contact can be much harder and there is almost no chance of getting to know the personality. However, longer term, I hope most people are looking 'for' someone who's personality they like. Of course there are still lots of shallow people around who just want a decoration on their arm. :rolleyes:

    Being honest though, looking into a pair of eyes that seem to sparkle especially if they are sitting above a warm smile, tend to make my libido convince the rest of my brain that she 'must' have a nice personality. :love:

    On another tangent, consider the dilemma of the modern male. If we stand up and oggle physically desireable women we are lambasted with the 'men humph' response. On the other hand you should see the shocked and outraged response I get (from women) when I point out that I didn't find either of my previous two girlfriends attractive at first, but grew to do so. " :aaa: How can you say that, that's shocking, cruel," etc. Perhaps this is another example of women's creative and holistic thinking being unhindered by the barriers and constraints of logic. :doh:

    I totally agree,first of all i look to her eyes than breasts,if she's a moron,then sleep with her and than split up ( unfortunately i don't have that courage :D )
    But if she's not a moron than that means i'm gonna discover her personality more,than i wouldn't need to look for much :cool:
