Face over body, or body over face?

As a woman , I think a guys face is waaaaay more important than his body .( as long as the body isn't an extreme) I mean he could be a little chubby or lacks some muscle or a little skinny , he could be short or tall . He does not need to have a six pack (honestly I don't even like perfect abs , don't know why) , as long as he has a handsome face I forget about the body imperfection Im talking from physical attraction only , of course personality trumps all. What about you ladies , feel the same? What about the men , do you choose face over body ? or body over face ?

  • You know it's scientifically proven that we all look at the face because that is what our future babies will look like. We all want our genes to be successful in the future. If you really want to get down to the fact, for most men and I bet for many women, personality is the most important thing on the list. It is the first thing that we notice because face it you are going to have to spend the rest of your life with that person in order to raise the kids. Personality is also a way for us to judge that person's skill bank. Personality also ensure survivability (cleanliness, outgoing vs shy, fight vs flight, etc.).

    The next thing we look at would be the face. Does she/he have the face that will ensure a bright future for our genes? And a lot of it has to do with the skins and the structure. Smooth, fair skin and symmetrical face mean they're healthy without any diseases.

    The last thing we look at would be the body. For men it's the breasts, it basically a signal to men screaming "Hey home boy her pistil is ready, go ahead and deflower her with your stamen." This ofc is the reason why a lot of men are in prison for statutory rape, damn you milk. :P I think for women they would be looking at his muscle tone and asking "is he strong enough to take care and protect the offspring?"

  • I'd choose an 8 body 4 face over the reverse. But a 10 face 8 body over the reverse. Basically it's more important to me to have an okay body, but once body is decent face matters more then. More perfect body.

    • Ooh! Great answer. Love the nuance!

  • yeah I do pick face over body unless it is an extreme that turns me off no matter what. an extreme would be a guy who is plain old fat. chubby or a few extra pounds might not bother me, often doesn't. but if he looks fat to me, I won't be attracted to him. Same with rail thin. Or if he is less than 5 inches taller (I'm 5"1, so I can say that without sounding ridiculous :P)

    Otherwise, it's all good. I definitely care about the overall look...face...more than just the body. Though I often find that I'm not necessarily attracted to the most handsome guys in the room.And my "ideal body" isn't a perfect looking one. For some reason what turns me on is just...masculinity. He has broad shoulders and a bit of a bigger build but isn't fat. I don't like very muscular or ripped guys.

    • I don't like ripped guys either , just broad shoulders are good :D

    • yup and big hands and I kind of like a solid middle...not a big beer belly but not ripped

    • Same taste in men I guess

  • face is more important. lots of men have great bodies. but great faces are harder to come by. if he does not have a face i am attracted to, i don't care how nice his body is.

  • I think age is a big factor here. Older guys will more likely pick face.

  • I'd choose body over face...

  • Face over body for me. As long as they aren't a train wreck of obesity, I wouldn't have any problems with a woman who had a few curves.

  • Definitely face over body.

  • I agree with you completely.

  • They're equally important.

    All the choices made here are what people would choose to "sacrifice" while actually they're happy with none of those options.

  • That is a very tough choice...but...I think if I absolutely had to...I would choose body over face...(:

  • Definitely face over body

  • The face is what you notice the most and as long as the girl doesn't literally have no boobs, most girs bodies will be pleasing to the man.

  • Face over body all the way. The face is really delicate compared to the body while the body is more easily shaped. Having a nice face is definitely a blessing.

  • i think almost everyone chooses face over body...the only thing differs is the definition of a Good or Bad face...and Good or Bad body...say if a face is 8/10 as per me...it may b 7/10 for my frnd...but her body is 7/10 for me but it is 8/10 for my frnd...and we both like her then m choosing Face over body and my frnd is choosing vice a versa!

  • I'll go body over face. As I get to know a girl and really like her, I'll like her face more regardless.

  • Face. You can always work on your body!

  • body over face

  • A pretty face is better :D

  • As a man, face is for me on a woman is vitally important. Like, face is 60% of whether I'm attracted to a woman.

  • I agree with you

    Also I'd rather have a gorgeous face than body
