If you have a great sense of humor that is *so* much more important than looks
intelligent but not a know-it-all
leadership qualities
confidence without being arrogant
I like a man carrying a little extra weight
Taller than I
handy man abilities (I think a guy that can build and fix things is so hot!)

Err... quite a few should just get a job. Aint as sad as most think. :doh:

Especially the ones in San Francisco. :doh:


I have met a lot of homeless people (volunteer work) and not a single one has “chosen” to be homeless. Just going out and getting a job isn’t as easy as you might think. There are college educated men/women who are having trouble finding jobs.

Drug and alcohol abuse plays a huge role, some people cannot escape those demons. Just going out and getting a job is unrealistic.

Great list! Discussion is really important to me as well.

I have met many myself.
Every been to Hippie Hill in San Fransisco?
My point is that many of the public ones who show off their homelessness knowingly put themselves in that situation.

A friend of mine is homeless and hitching to San Francisco, last I heard.
He was lazy in school, lazy at work, and refused to listen to anyone.
He decided that he deserved peoples charity and refused to get a job.
He is 21.

I think thats unnecessarily harsh.

You dont know their story, how they came to be the way they are, and seriously - who would employ a homeless person with no home?

You do realize that scripture says somehwere that those who do not provide for themselves are worse than unbelievers? I understand helping those who are trying to help themselves, but certainly not anyone looking for a handout.

What attributes do you find attractive in a prospective partner?

I s'pose I'll answer this portion of your OP... :)


- Understands my scripture tattoo - literally. To the depths of his soul... he understands, practices and resonates this from his entire being
- A humble-yet-mature Christian - I need someone whom I can grow together with; someone to learn from and who welcomes the chance to learn from me, as well.
- Tall height (preferably over 6"), muscular/lean body (I don't mind a bit of a tummy -- this is Wisconsin :p )
- Physically fit (can be a stringbean or non-stringbean, but energetic nonetheless)
- Nice eyes (creepiness can be read in the eyes and I'd MUCH rather see a strong-but-loving spirit rather than creepmaster 5,000)
- Kissable lips (I'm not a big fan of thin lips.. thin mints maybe)
- Nice hands (I can't really convey what I mean into words. Perhaps I'll google some hand pictures later)
- Decent sense of humor (he doesn't have to be Rip Taylor, but if he can make me laugh, I love it. Also, he has to find me funny, at times, too b/c I'm a goofball once in awhile)
- Intelligent -- one who loves to learn and who has a handle on different topics or items of discussion. If he is well-read, that's great. I need to learn from and bounce concepts off of people and my man is no exception. If he is a deep thinker, that's great too (but I don't exactly look-out for philosphers)
- Kindness, gentleness, compassion -- both to animals and to human beings
- Loyalty
- Possesses honesty/strong integrity/grace/mercy/forgiveness
- One who understands the importance of and values family and friends
- Not anti-social, but he can be a loner from time-to-time (I don't like interdependancy/clingers).
I guess "comfortable in his own element" would be precise.
- A dancer -- I've dreamed of having a dance partner my whole life. I've had men who've tried, but no one who truly understood my passion for it.
- Talented - I don't care if he's talented with a curling iron or a bagpipe. If a man has interests that he delves into, that's attractive.
- Is nothing even close to machismo (ie. not a sexist mucoso)
- Is relatively-kind to strangers - I believe you can tell a lot by a person based not only on how they treat their family, but also by how they treat complete strangers
- Patience
- Calm nature
- Strength - both physically and in character
- Playfulness
- Healthy sex drive (not prudish, nor over-the-top and definitely not an addict)
- Self-motivated (not lazy)
- Good hygiene (it is so sad that we even have to mention this one, isn't it?)
- Unpretentious
- Not afraid to "stand alone" if he knows he is in the right
- Preferably a pacifist, like myself
- Rockin' bod/attitude/demeanor/car :D :pray:

Again, harsh.

If we're talking physical I like the J Lo body type. I usually go for Latinas or women with Latin blood. Don't ask me why that is.

Personality wise I like a woman who's got a good sense of humor, is charismatic, has a positive attitude, and above all doesn't try to be a mother to me.
