What turns you off in a girl?

Well, I'm going to make the blind assumption that most of our members are male, and ask that simple question.

There are pretty few weird quirks I can stand in people.. weird voices, talking too much, attention seeking, bad clothes, bad family, bad friends, even bad names (Doris?) can be enough to put me off a girl. Don't get me started on gigantic asses! Really though, I'm far more often put off by a girls personality than her looks.. you?


Wow! Looking back, I sound really picky, but I'm not!
Female input appreciated too...!


later!

what turns me off the most is dishonesty in a girl. IF a girl can't have the decency to be honest with you, then its the biggest turn off for me.

Probably turns me off if she is considered a "girl." I stopped using the term "girl" when I was 25. Between then and now (32?ugh) I think in terms of female, lady, women. Happens to everybody though as the only alt is death But to more seriously answr your question one term turns me off- Gold-diggers..ugh. Seems like most women/girls are just that these days.

1) being dishonest
2) being "fake" (either mentally or physically)
3) being physically large (larger than me; I'm not looking for models)

Those are the three big ones...fortunately, my girlfriend is none of those.

Here are my biggest turnoffs:

1.Physical unfitness: I work out, ride my bicycle, and generally keep pretty physically fit, and eat healthy, good food. If you want to have any chance of showing up in my life, and you've got a roll, hit the highway.

2. Shallowness: Pretty much the same appeal as gold-diggery. Enough said.

3. Height snobbery: I'm 5'9 and a half. The only girl (or young woman) who should claim I am too short is one who is at least my height and greater. If you're 5'6 and consider me too short in stature, I have a couple suggestions of what you can do with yourself. Sorry if I'm blunt, but I'm a little bitter about this point.

4. Car snobbery. If you can't stand the fact that I drive a boxy Volvo sedan instead of some Honda with a body-kit, a Playstation II in the dashboard, and 18 inch rims, get lost!

5. Being Played: Unfortunately, I never seem to find out about this one right off, when I should. Ouch.

Anyway, those are the things that burn me the most.

HEY! My wife's name is "Dorris" (really), and she has a gigantic ass!

(OK just kidding about the gigantic part).

I don't like women who ACT LIKE gigantic asses!

I dislike women that act like men, and vice versa!

Yal.. don't apologise to smokers. They are obnoxious asses addicted to poison and don't care who they drag down with them.

"No thank you, I'd prefer other than these":

>(controllably) unhealthy: mind, body, spirit
>inadequate hygiene (sp?)
>over-controlling behavorial characteristics
>diaherrea (sp?) of the mouth: lots to say about everything & nothing, likes to hear themselves speak: yada, yada, yada!, must be the last one to put their .02cents in, must be the leader in any conversation


...and oh, I'm picky all right!

addiction
dishonesty
taking without giving
aloofness
sloth
immiturity
constant men bashing
and one lady went out and purchased a 3-series!

Perhaps a flawed attempt at population control?
