It depends from person to person. There are some women who value personality, charm, income, career, ambitions etc. more than looks. Same thing applies to men. Some men prefer personality and don't care much about looks, but others prefer people looking like Adriana Lima or any other models and don't like Plain Jane.
Anyway, a theory says that women are more likely to be picky than men when it comes to both physical attractiveness, personalities, how much the man can provide etc. because women can only produce a child at a time and a pregnancy last 9 months. It's not only time and energy consuming to be pregnant, but women often wants to take care of their children until it reach adulthood and wants a provider to be sure the child would be safe and grow up properly. Therefor women have to be more selective to get a healthy and good offspring.
Men however don't need to worry that much, since they can theoretically impregnate many women at the same time and it wouldn't be a problem in a polygamy society. One of the biological goal for the humanity is to survive and reproduce. If a man has sex with five different women, it's possible to get five children. If he have sex with them again, it would be ten children.

I've seen some jaw droppers go for dudes that are financially stable that were maybe average in attractiveness at best...
While at the same time I've been told very often that I'm very attractive (used to be, at least) , yet I can't get a text back because I live with my parents (My best guess).
Appearance isn't everything, if you're interested in a girl simply because she's hot, you're cheating yourself.
Men are more likely to date woman for their looks - this is why their physical standards are lower. Woman are more likely to date men for their income and strength - this is why their physical standards are higher - men shouldn't rely on their appearance to attract woman - they should rely on their personalities. The guy I dated earlier this year absolutely hated the fact that I thought he was good looking - he said he wanted me to like him for who he was on the inside and not what he looked like on the outside. It's one of the reasons he dumped me.
Absolute bullshit. After being rejected by nearly every guy I’ve liked, my standards have just dropped. I usually go out with the nerdy types that don’t have girls lining up after them.

Dude, you're way overfocused on looks. Just because women gush over models and actors etc. doesn't mean they're all gonna date one. Besides, you can have all those things and still be terrible with women. If e. g. you're mentally ill. Or insanely lazy and hence poor and marginalized. Etc.
If this is what you believe about women, you're sabotaging yourself.It's pretty sad if guys find a woman who is somewhat slim, not fat nor comically ugly as hot.
Hot is really attractive. It makes sense that there are many requirements to it.
Otherwise, you're just cute or good looking. Not hot.
Same with women, for me to be attracted to one it requires much more than thatOkay, so you are cool with a balding woman (very common trait)? Big, bushy eyebrows are okay? Define comically ugly clearly and decisively (and see how quick it adds up to the general appearance specs individually laid out on the womans side).
Here is a better idea. Have someone you know point out a woman they feel is your physical match. That should be your base line standard.Huh I don't know if I've found something to call misogynist in a little while but yeah this definitely qualifies. Like I get it bro, the whole dating thing can be frustrating but this dosen't help your cause.
The women I date tend to have the following standards for men:
Intelligent
Confident
Ambitious
Successful
Sense of humor
Reliable
Not fatThey don't. They just want an alpha male who is confident.
Women care about what a guy can bring to a realtionship rather than looks. Looks stay play a role but it is not as greater role as a lot of guys make it out to be.
i have pretty much all on the right side and im single haha
I demand maximum childbirthing capabilities of women.
Not all women have those standards :)
I do not agree with you on this..
B/c they have an line of guys to choose from.
They watch too much porn.
