    Turn offs:

    Too much makeup
    Bossy, know it all attitudes.
    Girls obsessed with their weight
    Lives for fashion

    Can't be arsed to think of my turns ons ! I'll do it later..

    I'm blind, didn't spot the turn on part.
    Confidence
    Pretty face
    Good body (this is the turn on thread so don't give out that this is shallow)
    Good taste in music always gets my attention
    Too many to mention but lately seeing girls in liquid leggings are a big turn on. Maybe it's that Catwoman thing they got going on with it or something but on the right people they are hawt.

    There seems to be a contradiction between number 4&5 of your offs
    Bellowing with laughter at a teacup for five minutes does not amount to a sense of humour. I'm partial to the gentle ganja myself but stoners are pretty boring unless you're, well...stoned.

    Especially Guinness!! Leads to being plump...vicious circle it tis...:mad:

    I'm pretty sure Guinness is less calorific than beer or cider.


  • Registered Users Posts: 377 ✭✭garrincha62


    I'd go for Guinness defo. Years of research and observing waistlines of friends will not convince me otherwise...

    Turn ons:

    Guys who aren't saps and who get that some people who live in Ireland don't have a tan and just because someone is wearing a black dress and has pale skin does not make them a goth/weird/into heavy metal music.

    'Goth' , 'weird' and 'into heavy metal' aren't necessarily the same thing! :P

    I don't think so. The majority of my exs were emboldened by my love them au natural and continued being comfortable with themselves ever since.

    I find this modern crazy to be some sham cover up on putting an acceptable face on things pedo bear would be interested in exposing... but hey, if the average modern man wishes we was sleeping with prepubesent girls, it leaves more real women available for gentlemen of more natural tastes.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 290 ✭✭Tawny


    I like
    - Intelligent men (not just intelligent, need to be able to have a good debate with him too)
    - Long hair (or at least something different about hair, so I'm open to dreads etc)
    - Can make me laugh
    - Tall (short men have issues)
    - Useful (able to fix my car, central heating, put up shelves...)


    I dont like
    - short men
    - skinny men
    - men who are obsessed by sports, I don't mind if they discuss the results and move on, but I know some men who just stare at the football in the pub and don't interact.
    - men who play stupid music too loud in their car (this goes for women too actually)
    - men who are obsessed by money, career, buying the best car etc.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,388 ✭✭✭GiftofGab


    Why? Because I find white women attractive and I find black women unattractive? It's just fact sir.

    What about the black girls in the rap video's???? Slutty, yes but also very sexy!!
    BTW slutty girls for me are also a big turn off but them rap video girls are hot! The one's in ireland are not good looking at all.

    Did the women not liking them cause the issues or the other way round?
