What's Your Type?

I've been gone all day, and just had a chance to sit down and read thread. This places never disappoints . . .

My type physically has been all over the place: I've dated blondes, brunettes, big boobs, small boobs, dancer types, athletic types. All the personalities have been pretty consistent, though: quiet but funny, hates techno, and crazy.

 

Just because you're not they're type doesn't mean you're ugly. My type may be Brooklyn Decker but that doesn't mean I'm turning down Jessica Alba. I guess it's a little weird that none of them would describe you but don't you look like Milli Vanilli? That's a pretty narrow type for most girls, I'd say.

 

Being mostly sullen and, for the most part, needlessly sarcastic, I've always gravitated to women that were the bubbly, outgoing, hyper-happy type. If you put that personality into a half-Asian woman with a nice rack, you'd need a high-powered firearm to keep me away from her.

As bi-racial women only appear during a lunar eclipse, I've only dated white women. They've all had big tits, which makes me immeasurably happy.

 

Maybe some of the ladies on here can help me with my dilemma:

I am only 23 but have been balding for several years now and over the last year it has certainly started to show. I'm graduating from school in a few weeks and have decided that it is either time to start wearing ball caps (something I've generally never felt comfortable wearing in social settings other than playing baseball), or to start shaving my head.

How many girls actually actually like that look on a guy? I've never done it before so I don't know if I would look better or worse but my gut instinct is worse. I'm 5'10 and about 190 with some muscle and am about as average as it gets in the looks department but am weary of going through with it then being stuck with that look for a few months until it grows back.

Is the shaved head with some facial hair something that girls on here even do a double take a bar or do most just dismiss it immediately with the subconscience thought that that guy is trying to hide the fact that he's bald?

 

Well, if we're doing that. Scratch out everything I wrote and replace it with Paul Newman. Paul Newman is my type.

 

I try to stay away from average when it comes to dating material.

Physically, I prefer either really tall or really short girls (i.e. 5'2" or less and 6'0" or more). They should also be either extremely skinny like Milla Jovovich, or built like a softball player with thick, powerful legs.

Intelligence is also good, but I have dated my share without it. A quirky personality and sense of humor are a must. And, most importantly, she cannot be easily offended. If Blazing Saddles is offensive material to you, stay the hell away from me.

Oh, and good teeth and the ability to hold down a job are required, but I figured those go without saying.

Spoiler

I'm not even really sure that Maria Brink fits into my general requirements, but shes at the top of my list currently. Good luck finding her in anything that doesn't stand out at your local mall.

 

Wait...it takes a few months for a guy to have hair grow back after shaving his head? I've never heard that before.

Anyway, the answer is yes. I dig a shaved head and a little facial hair on a dude. It's so much better than the trying to hang on to the last few strands look that is so awkward. To me, it seems that most guys don't know what to do when hair is sporadically growing and it's just the logical thing to do. It takes a certain kind of confidence to rock that look and that's always sexy.

Plus, I still remember that rare episode of Oprah I once watched where Dr. Oz said that bald guys have more testosterone. More testosterone = always a plus.

 

Chirpy, I present to you, your dream man:

 

I personally would not discount a man because he is making the best out of what he has. Going bald? Buzz that shit and own it. No hair is way better than bad hair, we all make fun of the cliched combover.

My type? I can't say I have ever had a consistant "model" that I look for. I suppose I like my men tall and in shape, sense of humor and ease in social situations is pretty important to complement my personality. I like my women pretty, I am pickier with them actually. Dark hair, strong cheekbones and a nice ass. Yep, tasty.

 

This is why I started to shave my head when I started going bald (also at a young age). My father has had a combover for as long as I can remember and still does. It is fucking absolutely horrible. The funniest thing I remember was when I used to see him when he first woke up in the morning with one side so much longer than the other and all bald on top. So there was no way I was going to even try any kind of cover-up.

Unless you have a really weird shaped head, buzz it off.

 

Ruckus, shave it. Hats just make you lose hair even faster. Plus, you can't wear the hat all the time.

My type of man? Needs to be at least a couple inches taller than me, and cannot be fat. But most importantly, cannot whine. "Wah Wah Wah my smartphone broke. Wah Wah Wah I have a project due. Wah Wah Wah I stubbed my toe." (Durbanite, are you taking notes?) I cannot stand guys like this, let alone date them. I am the designated whiner in the relationship, dammit.

 

Shaved head looks vastly better than balding. I'm not a conventionally attractive guy by any standard - but when I started shaving my head - I almost instantly went from having to approach girls and talk them into giving me the time of day to having girls come up to me in bars.

I say almost instantly because your head will be freakishly pale for a few weeks after you first shave it - and the cancer patient look doesn't work for anyone - once the tan level evens out though - it's all win.

This advice presumes you have a normally shaped head. Some guys just look freakish once the hair stops hiding shit.

Normal hair growth rate is about an inch a month. If you're balding already, chances are you'll be slower than normal. A couple of months between a razor shave and normalish short hair is typical. And most guys look like shit for the majority of that time.

 

Something I meant to say in my original post is that I don't want to have a type. If I think about it, my boyfriend and my ex-boyfriend are nothing like the type I envisioned growing up/earlier in my life. They look nothing like Ashton Kutcher, their personalities aren't what I viewed as ideal, and they don't have the million little traits I viewed as perfect. They're so much better than what I could dream up as "ideal". I think it's the universe telling me to calm the fuck down and just see what happens/who walks into my life.

 

I'm not too big with features, though I have a thing for taller women with darker features. Mmm. However, personal traits I admire are a broad sense of humour (original), an energy to match mine, but most of all don't be a prude. Never be a prude. If you're the insecure and/or jealous type that also gets offended easily than I doubt we could gel. Not that's it's your fault, but sheltered people and myself have personalities that bounce off one another.

 

I neglected to mention that all boys past and present have been oblivious to how cute they are, which actually makes them even cuter to me.

 

I have two pretty established types that any of my friends, if you asked them about my "type", would respond with one of the two.

First is carmel/olive skin, dark hair, and light eyes. Whether they are Latina, Spanish, Greek, whatever, all work. Just makes me lose it, so hot. The other is the "pseudo-rocker" chick as my roommate calls them. She has tattoos, maybe a few piercings, definitely an edge to her. Probably a byproduct of my days in HS where I went to tons of shows, but was still awkward and unattractive so it's not like I was meeting girls.

Those are the main categories physically. I have other "likes", but it's secondary. I'm definitely a tit man, so having something healthy up top is awesome. I've dated all cup sizes, and ironically, arguably the two best sexual partners Ive had were smaller in the chest region, I just prefer a bit bigger.

Oddly enough, I've never dated either type, much to my chagrin. By nature of where I work and where the majority of my friends hang out, I don't meet many of my "rocker" chicks (though I actively plan to change that this summer) and the carmel skinned beauties thus far just haven't reciprocated. But I still am fairly confident I will end up marrying one and my children will be able to tan effectively, unlike their father.

Personality, I'm drawn to witty girls with a bit of a mean streak. I
like to be kept on my toes and can't really stand a girl who is super quiet or sugary sweet.

 

My Guy is a big guy. I love big men. 6f2 and 230 is yummilicious to me. I've always found that body type attractive. Jason Witten and Josh Hamilton? Perfect build. The Guy is a former football player/rugby player/baseball player, he still carries himself that way, and since I heart athletes this is a really good thing.
Guys who want to play as much as I do, and enjoy getting muddy or throwing barbells around, or going trail riding, or whatever, are supremely hot to me.
I've always found the shaved head/scruffy jaw look attractive, and when My Guy shaves his head but doesn't shave his face so he has some scruff going on? Dear God. I want to mount him.
Personality wise - funny, intelligent, pragmatic, unpretentious. Clever. Clever is a must.

Interestingly enough, both of the men I married (and ultimately divorced) were the exact opposite of any of this. I was young and stupid and...really that's the only excuse I have.

 

I actually had to think about this before I responded.
It’s not the physical qualities that attract me towards a guy, but more his lifestyle.

He HAS to be taller than me. If a guy is my height or shorter, I probably won’t even look at him twice. I am 5’5”, that shouldn’t be a huge feat. He has to care about his appearance. If you are a fucking slob, that has cheeto dust on your shirt all the fucking time, don’t come near me. I love brown or hazel eyes. I have never dated a guy with blue or green eyes. I think brown eyes have more depth and life to them. Every single guy that I have ever dated has either had brown or black hair. I don’t know why. Every single guy I have dated also has had drinking issues. I guess my type is: tall, dark, sexy, alcoholics. However, I am open to changes!

What makes me attracted to you?
-Sexy arms. I like arms that I want to sink my teeth into.
- A genuine, warm, smile.
- A sick, twisted, awesome, sense of humor. Laughter is my drug. Don’t be fucking boring.
- Be into the outdoors. Fish, hunt, know how to ride a horse. You will have my interest.
- Hold your liquor. Don’t be a fucking lightweight, and don’t be a douche bag when you are drunk.
- Be open minded and tolerant.
- Spend more time with me than your video games.
-Have a good work ethic. Please, at least kinda know your way around a car. If you don’t know how to fix a flat tire, and you have a penis, you need to be fucking shot.
- Have common sense, and be at least somewhat intelligent.

I am now accepting applications!
Just Kidding..Maybe.
