Lights Posted November 17, 2007 Posted November 17, 2007 What qualities get men "checked out" by women? What environments does it most often happen in, and how does it apply in moving situations?
Dynamo Posted November 17, 2007 Posted November 17, 2007 What qualities get men "checked out" by women? What environments does it most often happen in, and how does it apply in moving situations? I'm not a lady, but from my observations guys are usually checked out if: A) They are attractive and noticeable (just like guys check out girls) B) They are in the center of some sort of social gathering (often signifying them as the leader / dominant male of the group, not always but sometimes) C) they are displaying some sort of special skill which sets them apart from others - ex. playing in a band, performing on stage, or even just helping an old lady cross the street. Now these may be wrong, but from what I've seen ladies check out guys if they find them visually attractive (obviously, guys do it too) and if they are showing some form of dominance/leadership skills. There are always exceptions though. Some go for the quiet guy reading a book in the corner - not everyone wants the guy dancing around on stage. The tough part is actually CATCHING them checking you out. Guys are a lot more "blunt". We tend to let girls see us checking them out, winking at them, etc. Girls are very good at looking away when you look at them / acting uninterested, but then checking you up and down and side to side when you turn away! Go get 'em tiger.
Pedigree Posted November 17, 2007 Posted November 17, 2007 The tough part is actually CATCHING them checking you out. Which why we should add into the mix, the additional question of: How would you know if a girl's checking you out?
Dynamo Posted November 17, 2007 Posted November 17, 2007 Which why we should add into the mix, the additional question of: How would you know if a girl's checking you out? Exactly. Unfortunately, I think this is one factor completely unknown to men. It's like asking what came first, the chicken or the egg.
brothermartin Posted November 17, 2007 Posted November 17, 2007 I can tell you what I've noticed. Girls check me out when I dance. I know this because they have told me. Apperently, Im a sexy dancer.

Consider yourself very lucky - I myself am a horrible dancer. I still give it my best, but it's quite comical to watch..
jcster Posted November 17, 2007 Posted November 17, 2007 I'm a sucker for a man with a sense of style. If he's got a look that's distinctive and suits him...I'll be looking.
CD111 Posted November 17, 2007 Posted November 17, 2007 Being a girl here are some check out worth qualities that catch my eye. I like to people watch also. -guy is comfortable, relaxed and having a good time. -has found his sense of style, whatever that may be and again is comfortable -his interactions with other people around. Does he act like a jerk to the waitress? -his walk..shows confidence subtly. Doesn't walk around like a male peacock on parade thinking he is god's gift to women, but doesn't slouch at the same time. LOL -he smiles, smiles are a great way to get people to check you out -if a guy can dance it is definitely a plus; however, not a must. -of course basic hygiene is a must -a good cologne goes a long way when not over done, so don't drench yourself with the stuff, girls will DEFINITELY notice if you smell good. Environments- anywhere where people have gathered for whatever reason Hope this stuff helps
Ocean-Blue Posted November 17, 2007 Posted November 17, 2007 - if you smell good, the ladies will notice (unless she has some allergy...in which she'll notice all the more, but not in a good way) - i.e. Armani's Aqua De Gio (wow) - good story teller (can hold a captive audience and do his characters justice) - masculine laugh (perks a gal's ears up it does) - sexy swagger (confident walk, no shoulder slouching) - considerate (mixes and mingles with the crowd without being an attention whore or sticking to the same person all night long)
bigheartkindsoul Posted November 17, 2007 Posted November 17, 2007 Smells good Dresses good Has nice eye and friendly face/smile
Pedigree Posted November 17, 2007 Posted November 17, 2007 These are all good, ladies. Keep them coming.
Storyrider Posted November 17, 2007 Posted November 17, 2007 Broad shoulders. Good haircut. Good facial bone structure. Intelligent look in the eyes. But the guy I'd check out is not necessarily the guy I would date. He could turn out to be a complete drip or a conceited jerk. And even if I were availabe I would probably not approach. The most I would probably do is make eye contact.

The most I would probably do is make eye contact. To add to what Story said...make sure you are approachable. A cocky man will get noticed, but he will not get approached. This is why you see the "average" guys have more success with women - they give off the more mellow but inviting vibes. And never be creepy (this includes incessant staring, heavy breathing and drunken blurt outs). Never.

Apperently, Im a sexy dancer. I check out a man's buttand my brain forgets everything else LOL. If I see a hot hiney thats me. I bet you wiggle your butt alot dont you brothermartin??
coco_milkshake Posted November 17, 2007 Posted November 17, 2007 Seriously though, I love dark features. He has to be tall, not that tall but obviously taller than me. Broad shoulders and good jaw structure and obviously confident. I love a man with dreamy eyes too. Also a nice butt is crucial!!

And never be creepy (this includes incessant staring, heavy breathing and drunken blurt outs). Never. That is very true. And a joking remark would be the best way to evoke a response from me. Not a remark about my looks or anything resembling a direct come on but some witty, low-key quip about the surroundings or the music playing or whatever.
