The most hated and debated is back,  So here is a topic that recently came out in a party i attended, which created a BIG debate, Many people tend to think women these days have long lists that describe what they're looking for in a man…but are their standards simply just too high and unrealistic? What do you think, ? |
| Re: Long List Of Standards: But Are They Too High And Unrealistic by Nobody: 4:20pm On Sep 04, 2011 |
Where's the list?  |

sexkillz: Make up one, not with me in mind for this topic!! Just a general discussion |

Ok! Not necessarily too high, cos everyone loves the good life, but then it is mostly unrealistic cos no one is perfect, and no one comes as a complete package! |

Top on my list. (physical attributes)  1. Tall,dark, smart/intelligent,sexy baritone voice,with a mesormophic kind of body. Is that too much to ask for?  . Men are also very choosy. |

pendo89: Pendo, Lax is here. Say no more. Look no further and smell no harder. You forgot to add seductive eyes. Like the ones u see on Lax alias wine-n-dine bobo. |

pendo89: Maybe so, MOST "men" these days are not even ambitious enough to have careers , not to talk of tall/dark, intelligent etc, It seems we are expected to start at ground zero with our standards and expectations, and accept that. Yet most "men are not even willing to do the same when It comes to women  ( Yes I said it!!) Other wise we are cursed with being single old ladies forever, or given "twenty years and begging for anyone" |

What is wrong with these dudes? They want a sexy looking lady with hourglass shape,nice bosoms, great legs and all that. So what is wrong with me asking for man with sexy seductive eyes,and voice and yes MESOMORPHIC kind of body? Not metamorphosis Is there any out there? Post your pics here first for verification. |

pendo89: Say no more. |

The same way a lady has a "Long list of Standards", is the same way a tall, dark, handsome, "mesomorphic", career-focused man has a long list of standards as well. |

pendo89:All will remain quiet I bet,  |
| Re: Long List Of Standards: But Are They Too High And Unrealistic by Ladyjide(f): 4:59pm On Sep 04, 2011 |
claremont:So I guess the better question would be why are the ladies "standards considered unrealistic and the mens are not? |

Lax75: W.A.WLadyjide: .Well its not like am waiting.Am watching weather forecast.claremont: Well same standards should apply both sides.You want sexy I want sexy,you want slim.I want metarmophic,you want stable, I want stable and etc etc,Bosom 4 Tat is a fair game.

[b]This is what a man wants in a lady, I would marry straight away any lady who meets my very short list of standards below  ; (culled from http://wiki.answers.com/Q/What_do_men_look_for_in_a_woman)>Someone with similar interests so they have something in common. >A woman who will make an effort to please him. >A woman who makes an effort to look her best. >An appreciation of the man's job. >Passion >A woman whose ego isn't bigger than her hairstyle. >A partner for his life. >A partner for his soul. >Someone who is caring. All men want to be looked after. >Someone who has faith in him. >A woman who is strong yet sometimes submissive. >A woman who is strong but does not have an attitude. >Someone who is not too loud. >Someone who won't nag him beyond reason. >A woman who challenges him and is full of the unexpected. >An interesting woman. >An intelligent woman. >A woman who is not dumb (mediocre intelligence is fine). >A woman who is smart enough to grasp new concepts. >Someone artistic or creative. >A woman can take care of herself without feeling that she has to compromise herself in a relationship. >Someone who suits their individual personality. >Some guys like an aggressive woman. >Some guys like silent and reserved type. >Someone in-shape/athletic. >Interdependence, so that you trust and need each other. >A sense of humor. >A woman with a nice laugh. >A positive personality. >Men want a woman who is comfortable with her own sexuality. >Someone up for action, or willing to get a little kinky in the bedroom. >A positive personality >A talent and passion in something worthwhile. >Men respect and want a woman who knows her own mind; women who are true to themselves. >Someone relaxed and confident. >A woman with a good soul. >A woman who has a great smile and loves to laugh and be herself but can also be intelligent and serious. On the other hand, I don't have a clue what the "Long list of standards" a lady looks out for are; obviously, if that of a man is this long, then that of a lady will be like a mile long then![/b] |

Is this unrealisitic ? A man that: - is open minded - good sense of humour - likes to be active like running,tennis,etc - honest - intelligent - can hang out comfortably in our silence - is a great lover - can pick me up and carry me - likes to cook - is kind - is reliable |
| Re: Long List Of Standards: But Are They Too High And Unrealistic by claremont(m): 5:40pm On Sep 04, 2011 |
talina:What do you weigh? |
| Re: Long List Of Standards: But Are They Too High And Unrealistic by pendo89(f): 5:41pm On Sep 04, 2011 |
Russialane: Lol probably more. Ok I have read through. Those are basic attributes possesed by majority of ladies. I think nothing beats friendship. Its the first thing I look out for. A friend then the rest will follow but let not obese feature in our relationship ever. I dislike people who don't take care of their health. |
| Re: Long List Of Standards: But Are They Too High And Unrealistic by Nobody: 5:42pm On Sep 04, 2011 |
claremont: Im not very heavy |
| Re: Long List Of Standards: But Are They Too High And Unrealistic by Lax75(m): 5:42pm On Sep 04, 2011 |
claremont: talina: All the above and then some equals to Lax. |
| Re: Long List Of Standards: But Are They Too High And Unrealistic by Nobody: 5:44pm On Sep 04, 2011 |
^^^^ nice! |
| Re: Long List Of Standards: But Are They Too High And Unrealistic by Nobody: 5:50pm On Sep 04, 2011 |
My list is: -accept me for who I am -make me happy -be honest I hope that isn't long, too high, or unrealistic lol. I don't ask for much in anyone at all. |
| Re: Long List Of Standards: But Are They Too High And Unrealistic by claremont(m): 5:53pm On Sep 04, 2011 |
ogugua88:Every man in this world should be able to meet this remarkably short list, I wish all ladies had lists this short! Pendo89 has a list a mile long, I bet it will take her 2 days to type it on here! |
