Ladies: Which is more important, a hot body or a good looking face?

[Pretty_Diamonds]

Maybe they just feel like they earned the best after so much hard work and dedication? I mean, I could say that all girls that have a body like a pornstarr are stuck up bitches, but in reality I know not to judge them until I get to know them much better.

Well, stop posting pics of your body, and telling girls to "feel it", "touch it", "punch it".

<--- gay guy, so I'm practically part woman.

The face matters more than anything. I was at Pride here in Toronto yesterday and I saw so many hot bodies with unattractive faces. It seems like no matter how perfect the bod is, if the face doesn't work for me, then the net effect is that I'm not attracted. Anyone can get a body at the gym, but your face you're born with.

So true same you can workout as much as you can and have a nicer body but when you are naturally pretty it really is different.

body can change with diet and exercise
ugly face cannot

I disagree somewhat.

A guy could have a nice face but if he has like 40% bodyfat his face will look different than if he was skinny.

Face! He can always work out. Plus, the guys who go to the gym everyday are always conceited douches.

Often? Yea

Always? I dont think so

@thread

I figured most girls would prefer a nice face but I am surprised about how one sided it is so far, interesting.

unless the face gets sunken in like post chemo or meth then weight loss to a good looking face is not going severely alter the look
hahhaa my husband works out almost daily and is far from conceited
he has a great body and a handsome face so I married him

Excuse me for being conceited, but I doubt I'll ever have to just "settle" for having one or the other :s

Do you plan on staying young forever?

 

[Animal Mother]

Ouch, that hurt.

Well, stop posting pics of your body, and telling girls to "feel it", "touch it", "punch it".

but the stuck up bitches love that!!!

hahah. Nah, I've never done that. I'm cocky with a tinge of humble

Fair enough, but that wasnt the question.

Well I'm not a woman, but I'm into biology/psychology and have read about the topic a number of times before, so I think I can give you a fairly quick answer to this. Also as guy I certainly spend a whole lot of time pondering what any given lass would be most into.

If a woman is looking for something short term, she's probably going to find a guy's body to be somewhat more important. If she's looking for something a bit longer term, chances are she's going to find facial features play a greater role. The exact same thing goes for males, although facial features are generally more valuable to females overall. Not only does research support that, but it also makes perfect sense biologically. If a guy's in really good shape, it means he's immediately a good bet, so if a girl is just looking to hit it and quit it, if you will, chances are the guy will immediately be a good provider for both her and her child (remember, we're talking biologically here. As such sex is for reproductive purposes). On the other hand, facial features are very strong indicators of genetic quality. That means that if a girl is looking for a longer term partner, she's going to want a guy who can withstand the test of time and will remain healthy for the longest. Therefore, she'd be looking for a fellow with nice facial features.
Now, the reason women would be a bit more interested in facial features in general would be because the only sure thing that a guy will contribute is his 50% of the genes for their offspring (that would be a little different the other way around because women also have to carry the child, meaning their overall health will contribute to how well the child develops). If they're in a group the group may be able to provide, or if her sexual partner were to die or something all that would matter would be how good the genes he passed on to their child was.

So in summation, I imagine that facial features will tend to win out for women a lot of the time. Obviously I'm sure they prefer the whole package, particularly broad shoulders, strong hands/forearms, and a muscular chest, but that can't compete with a scruffy square jawline, a strong brow, and a nice smile. Actually, nice full lips and big, soulful eyes belong in there too (of course I have it all, so ya know), as it has been shown that females tend to prefer a mixture of masculine/feminine features in guys' faces, which I guess makes sense; the girlies like looking into fellows' eyes and do so a lot when they talk, and obviously they like smooching, which surely they'd prefer doing with someone who has nice lips...man, chicks are just so painfully endearing, they're even cute in what they prefer in the opposite gender. I just want to hug them all.

Do you plan on staying young forever?

Wtf kind of question is that? Of course I don't....
That being said, I still don't think I'll have to choose between one or the other. I'm an attractive 22 year old female with a very hot 23 year old boyfriend (who has an attractive face and body). We both care about our looks. Of course when we get to 50 then we will not be as attractive but I think we'll still be attractive for 50 year olds.

Fair enough, but that wasnt the question.

You didn't quote my whole post. I did answer your question AND vote (I voted face). I then said that I will not have to choose.

 

[ad lib]

Lmao.

I'm going to have to vote face.

What I was saying is that you're being foolish and naive. And I don't mean to offend you by saying that (and didn't mean to in my earlier post, either). What you don't fully realize at this point is that looks don't last. What you've got now - which is that people respond to you a certain way based on your looks - is temporary. You have your choice of partners now. You can go to the front of lines. People want to be like you. You should savor it while you can. But it's important to know that you won't have it in the future, because it's too easy to fall into the trap of not developing yourself in other areas if things are being handed to you based on your looks. Also, there's a certain arrogance that you need to watch out for.

When you're 50 - or even when you're 40 - you may still look great for your age. But you won't turn heads at 50, unless it's a 60 or 65 year old whose head you're turning. And then I think you'd be settling, unless it's looks-and-relative-youth for money. Youth is huge for men, and we can always go younger.

I don't get the impression you rely too much on your looks, but your post was a bit of a red flag. Where I live, there are lots of women who used to be great looking and who still have a sense of entitlement or arrogance, and they are annoying to most people in the same way as aggressive, homeless panhandlers. You don't want to become that. Be humble and develop skills and a personality as if you were homely, and then you'll have the best of all worlds.

For us guys there's only a few things we can do in no order;

1. Eat well
2. Go to gym
3. Brush your teeth
4. Dress well
5. Smile and be nice!

Surely every woman will agree these are 5 steps to success

True.

I guess I just didnt like your "Im super hot so I dont have to choose" attitude.

I love these kinds of threads. As a guy, I receive tremendous (and often hidden) insight from them!

I'm pretty sure he's just saying what is required to come off as attractive on the surface to get noticed in the first place...
