I don't really have an exact type especially with looks.. let's just say a good looking girl, nice eyes , a voice that I like, smells great haha, doesn't have to work out but just slim.. Personality and attitude , we just vibe really well together.. we have a fairly similar lifestyle.. and she's into me as much as I'm into her.. oh and I like her to be very affectionate.. well, even if she isn't I'll make her lol.

DizzyDesii · Answer

LOOKS— My main preference is redbone black men with green or light eyes.  But in general, I will date a black man of any skintone with any color eyes . I also date non-black men  and prefer they have a good natural tan from like being out in the sun. My type in terms of non-black men is  usually black or brunette haired with green eyes . But again, the eye color, hair color and even the tan is not a must. So someone pale is fine too. Height wise, I like  anywhere from 5’7-6’2. Age anywhere 24-30.  I’m not big on beer bellies nor abs but anything in between is fine. I like toned non-veiny arms and a decent chest.  I like buzzcuts and fades, thick eyebrows, cleanshaven faces or goatees,  but definitely NOT long hair past the shoulders, chest hair, beards nor thick mustaches. Guys  wearing glasses  are twice as hot. I like when men have a  southern American accent, Australian or NZ accent, OR overall a street accent  like the ones common in southern Cali, Chicago, New Orleans, Atlanta, Memphis, Houston, etc. I prefer clean bodies with  little to no tattoos. Not big on piercings  unless its an eyebrow piercing.  PERSONALITY — Similar morals, values, interests, goals and timeline... Respectful, Sweet, Goofy, Caring, Determined, Talkative, Light-Hearted Sense of Humor, Courageous, Kind,, Affectionate, Understanding, Decisive, Encouraging, Rarely Sarcastic, Humble, Monogamous, Poetic,  Believes in God , Great Listener, Doesn’t Smoke, Hardly Drinks, Wants kids, Fluent in English, Lonewolf, Theme Park Enthusiast I have a thing for mechanics, construction workers, teachers, surfers, skateboarders, poets, architects, and baseball players

RavVid · Answer

Yeah I do. I like fine boned with prominent cheek bones coupled with an elfin figure. Slender but not so much I feel an impulse to feed her up. If possible a platypelloid pelvis which is a little broader and the extra hip rotation it gives is a delight in my opinion. It is the least common pelvic structure so I'm not making it a must have. This is getting a bit technical, so google if you want to know more about female pelvic structures.

In terms of breasts, I don't want more than a handful. I do like large nipples however.

I would like a double recessive gene eye color. In terms of skin color I'd like a light tan but ethnicity is the major determinant of that.

Most of all I would her to have a feminine nature which is us/we inclined but is willing to say what she does/doesn't like.

catarecute · Answer

i see having a type as toxic. i am a christian i believe in soul and honestly i believe being close to god makes people more likely to be single as everything about dating is satanic. there is no type we are humain being not pairs of shoes from a shoe shop.

Anemone978 · Answer

I have a personality type I like.. but looks wise they just have to look generally good looking.. my type can vary I guess.. Though I kind of want to go for a different type of guy that I have gone for in the past.. since most guys I liked talk rude to me and I don't want that anymore..

AaronKrieger · Answer

Yeah, appearance wise and their hobbies I have a few different types.

In terms of their personality, I tend to end up dating women who are similar to my mother who in they are and their life being rough in similar ways. It's weird and I do not intentionally do it, but it is what it is.

NathanDavis · Answer

I don't need a "type"

if you mean looks or body type... I've never had one specific preference

if you mean more about personality and stuff... then yes, I do prefer them (and they've always been) smart, interesting and funny

Anonymous · Answer

Hah. My friends don’t know what my ideal type would be since my past boyfriends look a lot different to each other lol. My ideal type would be a man between 5’4-5’10, anybody taller it starts getting awkward. I like men that are pale or tan, dark brown/black hair, and dark eyes. Black hair and blue eyes are nice, and so is blonde hair/blue eyes. I prefer more Eurocentric features and someone that is slightly fit or only a little fluffy. Has good hygiene, decent teeth, and just takes care of themselves. But not all of this is necessarily a need, if he is a good person and we are compatible then I don’t care as much what he looks like

Babygirl_S · Answer

As much as I hate to admit it, I do have a type now.

I like masculine men who can be really kind and gentle whereas men who are irritable and aggressive turn me off. Something so alluring about a strong man who is nurturing. Athough I am fully aware that getting enraged is considered manly, I absolutely despise such men.

When it comes to appearance, earlier I was into caramel-skinned tall Indian guys and now I like really fair-skinned, tall and handsome white men with dark hair. I also like blond men but it would be dishonest to say that I don't prefer really dark hair. I also love how dark eyebrows contrast with lighter eyes.

Henry Cavill embodies my "type" perfectly

Joshydavid25 · Answer

Looks wise, I don't have a narrowed type, I do have a slight preference for Latinas, but I love all groups of women.. As long as they aren't too fat or skinny and they have a cute face and a booty I'm good. Now personality wise, I like fairly nerdy, goofy girls who are very chatty..

Asimiv · Answer

Yup, my type is basically the male version of me. Ofc there will still be some differences, but when it comes to values, it's the male version of me

Jess_D · Answer

I like white guys (I’m black/Latina mix). Taller than me, blue eyes are preferable but not a dealbreaker. Tattoos are not only acceptable but preferred. A nicely trimmed beard is also very attractive. Doesn’t have to be a body builder either, my current boyfriend is tall and thin but I have dated chubby guys in the past.

Jim_F · Answer

Dating, for me, means I’m ready for a relationship. Compatibility is a key element in happy relationships so my “type” would someone of a personality type that fits well with mine.

It would help, though, if she was shorter than 5’6” tall and a relatively healthy non smoker.

Unycorn · Answer

Actualy black - I don't know why, but I find these men interesting. It's just a preference... Whether you like blue eyes or brown skin, I'm not racist. So far I've only dated Europeans, I myself live in Germany, which is my home country, but I have my roots abroad.

I like the way the skin feels. I like the way it looks.

And more...
