Here is a little first hand insight. I myself have an online dating profile. Sensible with enough stuff about me. I hardly get any response. But when I created another profile with a great looking male model, not only I got tons of looks at my profile, but some women actually message me which was a 8th wonder. And almost invariably every women replied to my message.

so please STOP blaming men for showing interest in looks because women does too and it's called being HUMAN.

Also I created a female profile with a gorgeous model and undoubtedly I was irritated at the number of messages. Unlike what women claim in their profile, no even a single man used any kind of profanity or was asking for hookup. Not sure why women claim "Don't message if you are looking for sex"

Now that the looks part is out of the way it depends, I personally would not prefer women who have tons of club pics, bikini pics. I like to see that she is educated and simple. I treat a women like a queen when they don't mention in. If they mention it explicitly, I can't because then I feel like a slave. So a big NO to all self proclaimed divas and princesses

"Guys" aren't all the same, some are looking for one thing, and some are looking for another. I'd say the trick is finding the guy who's looking for the same thing you are. There's a lot of guys out there looking for sex, but I'm sure there's also a lot of guys looking for a companion, something more than just sex. It's always a roll of the dice, just use your best judgement, if it doesn't feel right, it probably isn't.

They want to know if you're compatible with them.  Music taste, hobbies, drugs, smoker... And what type of shows on tv they like.

The description doesn't matter whatsoever. If you're hot, you'll receive dozens of messages daily.

I'm looking for a woman (girl) whose dating profile
doesn't scare me away, i know i can read through them
if something sticks out that tells me red flag i will back off
I'll be less likely to respond to them type of dating profiles
i like woman (girl) who carries her self well, has good body
language , if she's sarcastic that's a turn off, if she's loud
than again she will scare me away, if she talks about sex
right away a turn off, if she worries about her body, looks,
posts fake profile pics all a complete turn off to me i think
more of females who post Avatars / real pics is turn on

Everytime you see "good personality/good attitude" on someone's online profile, a red flag IMMEDIATELY pops into my head about their probably shitty appearance.

But then people will say "don't be judgmental bc it's what's on the inside that counts". Well if the fatass really cared about themselves, ie had good in them on the inside, if they really "have a good attitude/personality blabla", then they would take care of their bodies and not be fat/ugly/unhealthy.

I have always been highly skeptical and resistant towards online "dating" because of this. People love to lie on their profiles just to get their foot in the door.

TLDR: Like some of you have said, it's always a roll of the dice.

ToBeDeterred · Answer

Just because we are attracted to women who have those attributes doesn't mean we have a checklist of some sort and each and every thing must be checked off for us to consider. Would a girl rather have an average looking guy with a good personality or a male model with a good personality? Obviously the male model, but presumably you aren't going to overlook someone who doesn't match that description. The way I see it is if you want the perfect looking partner, you better look perfect yourself. If you ask guys to name a list of things they like in a woman the list will look something like that. And yet, those are often not the girls that guys get crushes on. Looks aren't everything. I can take to an absolutely stunning wall already, so why would I go looking for a stunning wall (a hot girl with no personality). I can't communicate my feelings with a wall, so obviously I want an actual human to interact with. What guys prefer isn't what we require...

FruitsPunchSamuraiG · Answer

Smile. Smiles tell us who you are. If you are happy and enjoy your life, if you have a balanced personnality, if you want to give happiness through your smile or receive attention.

For me smile is the most important thing. I can fairly say I've had a crush on most girls because of their smile. But when I'm saying "smile" I include all the face.

Hans222 · Answer

Signs that she's a modest and friendly person. No profile pics with loads of make-up or outsize boobs that dominate the picture.
Just a simple smiling girl with healthy interests and a positive attitude.

icepuffin · Answer

Guys and girls don't know what they want until they see it and can compare it.

For example Girl A likes manga and cosplay. Her facial appearance is ordinarily plain and she's a little overweight but wears make up and is fashion conscious Albeit a little edgy at times ; Girl B is stunning and likes to go out and party and have a good time with her friends ; Girl C likes cooking and kickboxing. She's into politics but also satire. her facial appearance is above average yet fashion is on the safe side.

All these girls would be a first pick varying from guy to guy. A guy wouldn't seek any of these characteristics intentionally but present with the choice it becomes easier to picture what spending time might be like with that girl. For me personally I'd pick A C B in that order.

Online profiles are just that online. A guy who is looking at these sites has his own agenda and desires, and he is looking to see if he feels she would be a good fit. Same as, I would imagine, that girls look for. There is no single right answer to this question, A man might be looking for a woman who is between the ages of _ and _ who lives within an easy commute and nothing more, or he might be looking for a woman who is into THIS (hobby, kink, etc.) and NOTHING else will do.

As a social experiment the administrators of a certain dating site (that is no longer around) put up a generic profile of a woman with the photo of a model and changed single answers to questions such as "do you believe in love at first site" and they found that these answers DO matter. Yes they were drowned in responses as the photo was of a HOT woman, but the experiment stood on it's own.

I don't know but most guys but I like a girly girl a girl who smart has a mind of her own a girl that can roll up her sleeves but I also like feminine girl. When a relationship with somebody it's a partnership proopinion matters to me as much as my own does I put her needs before my own and try to be affectionate honest and if there's some kind of problem we can discuss it. She's not stupid so I'm not going to call her that there's no such thing in any circumstance on putting your hands on somebody in anger. when you do those things you put in conditions of what you want to be unconditional love how can you make someone love you unconditionally if they're afraid of you? That's a condition. And all these things I would expect the same in return that's what I want to see on a dating app.

Nice boobs, flat stomach, small waist, nice ass, low BMI, long hair, and a very compliant, laid back personality.

Words_and_Wisdom · Answer

Only things I look for outside of looks are confidence and the ability to actually start a conversation.  I mean it's difficult to get a woman's attention online as it is...

Drew2525 · Answer

I typically look for a woman who is independent, has goals, close friends, a good career, good personality, etc. Her looks are just a plus, it won't or break my decision if I like her.

"I never know what I'm supposed to do, I only know what I can do."

Women shouldn't get too caught up in making a profile to suit men. Sure, be aware of certain things like a lot of men actually like girls to take selfies and get annoyed if every pic has your friends in it and we can't tell which one is you. But, I think you can take it to an unhealthy place where for example you like having pink hair but a bunch of guys tell you they wish you had blonde hair so you change it and then the dude who loves a girl with pink hair swipes left because you seem like a boring blonde. Like, all a woman can do is be herself. Her best self, sure, but she still has to be the author of her own image.

They're looking for a sexy bitch who also meets their list of desired characteristic attributes. It's not that hard to figure out.

Hot girls don't do online dating so I don't do online dating. I'm not lowering my standards for that garbage.

Honestly i think tastes will vary, but i think most guys would respond well to a pretty smiling profile picture, a positive/hopeful outlook, and interesting answers to some of the most boring questions...

GoldCobra · Answer

SuperManMan · Answer

A girl who really WANTS to give oral because she knows he enjoys it and she wants him to feel good.

Apply that concern, ambition, compassion, and partnership to every other part of the relationship.

That is a woman every guy wants.

Balcazaurus · Answer

I have said this before:

I don't really, "look", I just wander and will occasionally stumble onto someone I like.

So far, no one's liked me back. It's a little annoying sometimes, but it's not too bad. At least I learn about myself and other people.

But basically: someone who will laugh with me, be my best friend, and who just emotionally connects with me. That's all I want, really.

Have I found it in a romantic partner? No, but at least I have made friends along the way.

YourFutureEx · Answer

At first I thought why GirlsAskGuys is asking such type of questions. However, my doubts are cleared after reading the description.
