Sudden turn-offs

[NoJo]

I just noticed my fingernails are dirty. I've been told this is an immediate turn-off for women, particularly if it's one of their first impressions of you.

What subtle little thing you noticed on a first date would make you suddenly "hit the back button"?


Edited to add: btw I've cleaned them now with a pen cap. And I've cleaned the pen cap too.

A bogey hanging out of a nose tends to do it, too.

Smoking. No matter how perfect a woman might be otherwise, if she smokes I lose all interest. No offense to those who smoke.

But I'm no one to talk. When I read the Playmate's data on the back of the centerfold in Playboy I always notice that most of my dominant qualities are listed in the "turn-off's" category. LOL.

List them Boota, list them!

white socks & bad teeth then... a hairy back, false teeth, flatulence, greasy hair, poor personal hygiene... think that's it for the moment.

Fuck. What if I lose the white socks? Does the other stuff still count?

 

[Guest]

Hmmm... seems I have low standards...

HA!

Lou

P.S. I told ya I'd get NASTY!!!!

White socks

You aren't suggesting I have to wear colored socks with my nikes, converse, and more

How will I adjust...... just must have my white socks

I'll see you my white socks, and raise my short pants

Mtn

This may nearly be a prejudice. I cannot bear a high voice from a man. Just can't, no matter what else is there. Communication is essential so squeaks would rule any out.

Someone who crowds me right from the beginning.....I'm a firm believer in the personal space thing.

 

[shereads]

If he's wearing the same dress or asks to borrow mine, I feel uncomfortable, but I'll usually try to enjoy the evening unless I'm wearing low-heel shoes and can run really fast.

If he mentions his mother more than once without being prompted, and if the second mention is to tell me how pretty she'd look in this dress, I nearly always leave the country and lay low until I can return with a new identity.

It's nice if he compliments my eyes. But he has to compliment both of them at once.

"Your other eye is mesmerizing" is not as flattering as you might think.

Edited to add: Same rule applies to breasts.

 

[Guest]

Good points, Sher. I know this will sound awful but my girlfriends and I have said it to each other. I prefer the mother to be dead or living at least an ocean or continent away. P.

p.s. re. a dress I would love to date a transvestite but he'd need a deep voice.

 

[NoJo]

Yahh.. None of you could hope to compete with my mother. Here she comes now, with a cup of tea... Stupid cow, she put two sugars in instead of one.

Sher, I'd make sure I'd comment only on the parts of you that don't come in pairs.

Okay, women:

Big turn-offs:

Circumcised women. Women who don't eat. Women who'll "have what I'm having". White women who start talking patois to me, in the mistaken belief that I'm Jamaican. Women who actually say "LOL and IMHO" in real life, not just on the boards.

Pierced lips (sorry Mum).

 

[Guest]

Fuck, I just knew the mum rule would screw it up. Plus, you didn't mention the timbre of your voice, Joe. P.

 

[Guest]

His speaking voice is more camp than Julian Clarey's, on helium.

Lou

 

[NoJo]

I have a baritone voice, and a falsetto breasts.

 

[shereads]

There are people who do that? Whoa.

 

[CharleyH]

The words, "You want me to do what?" seem to make me dry.

what you said.

 

[NoJo]

I met a woman once who told me she would be blogging everything I said or did to her that evening. I thought she said "blocking". So I gave up.

 

[Guest]

Blogging, blocking. Actually, Joe, you have the most important thing (after the voice) - making me larf and smile all the time. P.

LOL Getting rug burn.

DAMN JOE! I almost got excited thinking you said bloking!

 

[Guest]

Charlus, that's great. I want to bloke!

I dated a guy once with a hairy back. Didn't bother me in the least. He wasn't a gorrilla or anything, just a hairy guy.

That would be kind of fun. I used to have the biggest crush on Dennis Rodman (although I don't know if he really qualifies as a transvestite or not) I think Ru Paul is a doll- in and out of drag.
