Attitude and Beauty in Women

Anybody out there will tell you that attractiveness is not all about looks. Most of the people who will be quick to tell you this, however, won't be men. Well, whether men are quick to detect their attractions or not, this is a truth above all truths. There are women out there who will consistently get the guy, and (bombshells of the world, watch out!) they're almost never the most physically beautiful ones. It is just a fact of life. Even for men, lasting beauty has a lot more to do with attitude, body language, linguistic behavior and intelligence than it does with physical perfection. Not that we guys won't look at a beautiful lady walking down the street (the lower ranks of us will even cat call or whistle at her) but they aren't the only girls we notice. Having known many, many women in my 50+ years, I'm adequately prepared to offer some insight on what makes the less "perfect" women much more attractive than the runway models of the world.

The number one most attractive thing about a woman is her attitude. Forget the perfect body. If a woman has a frown on her face constantly, complains about everything and simply cannot be seen in a Wal-Mart (goodness forbid we do a little bargain shopping), it makes her about as attractive as a manhole cover. Which is to say, not at all. One of my wife's best friends, for example, is a woman whose body is closer to what I'd call "rubenesque" and god help her if she isn't one of the most attractive women I've ever met, based solely on her attitude. When she laughs, her whole face laughs. She smiles and her eyes twinkle. She doesn't use profanity (just because that's her style), she shops at Good Will because "it's fun" and she's the kind of person that you just want to hug every time you see her. How beautiful is that?
