Now that I'm embracing life as a 40+, I'm all about dudes with old skool savoire faire, and oddly enough on some I really love salt and pepper hair. I like 'em looking like they appreciate a good scotch, can man a sailboat, handle a fast car around curves and cliffs, and aren't afraid to wear a little Bay Rum every now and then

smart, but not too smart.

the more she DOESN'T think and act like 90% of females, the better. Most girls are too wrapped up in shit that isn't important.

Smart but not too smart?

Are you kidding? I love SMART and SEXY!

I'm attracted to every race but they somehow always have the same physical features so this is what I tend to end up with physically:

6ft and over

broad shoulders

body type ranges from medium build to a bit larger - but never over muscle-ly

dark short hair

full lips

scruff

Actually, now that I think of it most of the men I have been involved with are racially mixed.

Non-physical:

Intelligent

Funny

Dominant

Arrogant

And, yup...every single one of them has been mentally/emotionally fucked up in some way so I guess I have a stupid Saviour Complex....with the catch being that I am just as fucked up!

I don't really think I have a type The one thing I've noticed that is similar in the people I've been attracted to is their height. The men I've seriously dated have been 5'6 - 5'8

Very short hair, like an Army officer, or bald.

They have a very simple wardrobe vs wearing tie dye clothes or very creative clothing. Clean shaven, for the most part.

It is funny because I like flamboyant performers but the men I am attracted to are not like that.

Little to no jewelry.

Not very talkative.

I am sure there is more than that.

Oh, so we're talking about non-physical features too..?

Hang on, I think I even started a list with things I would be looking for in a woman some time ago. It's not finished, but I found it:

She has to be:

intelligent

empathetic and (in a healthy way) sensitive

on-par with her thoughts and emotions

able to express and formulate these thoughts and emotions

able to look beyond the superficialities in life

inspired and inspiring

interested in many different subjects and able to find a reasonable answer to many different questions

able to also hold back and not talk share that answer, when necessary

able to "grasp" why music is so much more than "just" music; basically in love with it

able to play at least one musical instrument

able to move her body in a self-confident, controlled and elegant manner

self-confident and know about her strength, but should not feel the need to boast, show off and always talk about her strengths
able to listen

able to approach someone and step up to them more than they might be able to step up to her

spontanious and have a convincing zest for action

able to know when to shut up and do nothing

beautiful without really knowing it

able to have a healthy, seductive, but not dishonest sense for eroticism

intellectuall, individual and creative

able to still not always identify herself with her intellectualism

very neat, elegant and feminin

able not not feel the need to identify herself with any stereotype, but simply to "be"

devoted, open-minded, honest and passionate

not theatrical nevertheless

able to show other people new ways of looking at life

able to speak more than two languages

ignore social boundaries and "rules"

therefore ignoring things such as age, race, origin etc.

funny; - sarcastic, cynical, black humour, political humour, ...

multi-faceted

a hater of stupid talk-shows, stupid magazines and stupid movies

someone who doesn't feel the urge to go out and spend nights in awful clubs with stupid people, dancing to shit music

someone who doesn't take drugs or never consumes lots of alcohol in a very short period of time

someone who cares about herself and her appearance

someone who has a natural distance to strangers, but who is also able to open herself towards new things and who enjoys being spontanious and who knows when to simply trust people

There! If anyone of you ladies here is exactly this (and happens to look like Penelope Cruz), I swear to God I will forever love you and make you happy; I will do the right things without changing myself and pretending; if you are this person, trust me when I say to you that I swear we are meant for each other and if there ever was everlasting love, this is what I would feel for you.

One more thing: no jewellery please!

I like a variety of women

5'-7" here

I have so many different types.

I like guys who look like this:
(Which bears somewhat resemblence to the man I'm interested in currently.)

And guys like this:

(Sweet Mother Mary...)

And guys like this:

(Asians are lovely, though I never manage to wrangle any... not that I don't try like hell.)

And even guys who look like this:

(Blonde dreads are beautiful.)

I can find sexy in almost any package... I have dated so many "types"... different looks/races... but I tend to be most attracted to a masculine, taller, strong, easy-going type that takes care of himself and is compassionate.

I (like Ottensen) am 40 and I appreciate a salt n peppered haired man that has a rugged good looks, charm and is confident in himself, but not cocky. He's gotta have a nice smile and possess a good sense of humor also.

Oh fuck, I totally forgot that a must have is he HAS to have really nice teeth!

Attractive personality.

Sweet person to all (Not just their friends)

Funny

Nice body (from small to average) Not really into BBW sorry ladies.

If only I could narrow it down.

That post is almost there.

No particular race just the hairier the better.

I'm not into hairy types. I prefer clean shaven with lots of dark hair and only minimal/damn near microscopic amounts of chest hair....here's Exhibit A

[Edited 3/15/12 12:24pm]

My type changes every 2-3 months. Right now I am into caramel colored guys with deep dark eyes, no body hair and lots of muscles or he can be slender with lots of exotic tats but none below the belt and no body hair and no piercings.

Personality wise they have all been the same. Charming (but not seductive), confident (but not arrogant), wry sense of humor (but not insulting or hurtful), well read (but not a total book worm) and into outdoor sports (but not that extreme sports stuff where you are breaking bones and dicks), courageous (but not foolish).

I like this look. Cute.

I'm starting to notice that "all my lovers look alike"...

Even this pic of Al Pacino reminds me of a dude that I like...
