Tattoos, Cigarettes, & Shoes
I recently had dinner with a group of friends when the topic of dating came up. One of the men mentioned how he was finding it hard to meet lady-like women. I challenged him on this because I know plenty of lady-like women who are sophisticated and classy. How is it that he manages to not to meet them in Atlanta?
He tells me that a lot of women have an image of sophistication but when you get a closer look, they have tattoos and they smoke, which apparently isn’t lady-like behavior at all. I’m sure we all have our preferences in dating, but do you think judging a person by their tattoos and smoking habits is fair?
I think it goes deeper then judging a book by its cover. One of the women at the table said that she actually checks out a man’s shoes. When I asked her what a person’s shoes says about them, she said that it lets you know how much they care about appearance. Now, what does that have to do with character? She never truly correlated the two, in my opinion.
I have said it before, but we have ridiculous reasons for ruling out a potential mate. Are tattoos, smoking, and shoes legitimate reasons to pass on someone? What is the most superficial, ridiculous reason you dumped someone? Have you changed your ways since then? Do you still rule people out because of something somewhat trivial?

GM ATLANTA,
No tattoos, definitely no smoking for me. In June one of my friends tried to introduce me to a guy and he had two gold teeth and I was immediately turned off. I do not like a thuggish looking guy.

Morning all,
Everyone’s entitled to their preferences, I guess. There does come a point where you can become too picky. However, if it works for you….
I have a small discreet tattoo, I’ve heard men dismiss women who have them. But as far as I can tell, it hasn’t happened to me. Unless you see me in a bikini, you wouldn’t even know I have it.
Smokers are unattractive and it’s different because there are health implications to it. I’m not a smoker by any means, but I have walked in to a cigar bar, ordered up a cigar, had some bourbon and played poker with the guys there. They seem to think it’s the hottest thing in the world.

Botox! Totally a deal-breaker. I remember going on a date with a guy once (a doctor, no less) and being unable to concentrate on what he was saying because I was so utterly focused on his frozen, unmoving face. It seemed like he had especially gotten a lot around the nose, that area was like a frozen island in the middle of his face.
If some guy is so shallow about his appearance that’s he’s spending big money on cosmetic surgery procedures for himself, what is he going to think about me? I have laugh lines and I’m not getting rid of them. I am what I am!

Honestly, I don’t think any reason is a ridiculous reason to pass on someone as a potential mate — if there is something about a person that bothers you that much, then clearly that person is not for you. No matter how silly the reason may seem.
In the cited example, I have to agree with your guy friend, Wise — tattoos generally one of 3 kinds of trashy: slutty trashy, biker-chic trashy or i’m-trying-to-be-a-bad-a$$-and/or-thug trashy. Sometimes all 3 at once. Whatever the case, not lady-like. And smoking is just plain disgusting. No desire to make out with an ash tray, thank you very much.

The most superficial reason… hmm… I wasn’t feeling the fraternity he was in. I met the guy and something was real “off” about him. I put those feelings aside and gave him my number. Upon our first convo, my initial instict was correct. Then he mentioned the frat he was in and the
came on. Not to judge a whole group of men, but the ones I had interacted with in the past came across just as lame too. 
Anywhoo, we didn’t move forward and the reason was that he was lame overall, but him being associated with that particular frat didn’t help either.
Just being honest. *shrugs*

Hey ARed!
I hope that all is well on your end I was getting ready to issue a MIA bulletin on you…lol
@IWLD no gold teeth for me. I don’t like the gothic or that skinny tight look at all…I like a man that knows what looks good on him and go from there. Everything is not for everybody.
I don’t do cigarettes nor would I date a guy who smokes them, however I do smoke fine cigars occasionally and my humidor host a nice collection. The guys I dated never had a problem with this matter. For the record I don’t like guys in dirty or cheap shoes, tacky dressers, K-Mart suits, dirty fingernails, nasty socks or slouchy socks, improper table manners etc.

Good Hygiene is a must. I was interested in a guy but you could smell his pits miles away. Another guy that was interested in me sat by me and he smelled like he had skipped his bath that morning. I have heard some guys say that don’t have to shower as much as a female, but somethings when you are trying to attract someone you do like bathe.

Good hygiene is essential to me. I mentioned earlier this week that for me that includes going to the dentist having your teeth clean, changing your sheets, not having cups on your nightstand that are growing fungi and mold. IMO there is a certain amount on cleanliness that must occur.

Tattoos, smoking, and poor personal hygiene and dress are certainly things that can break the deal. These are things that reveal character. If you can’t clean and dress yourself appropriately, you can’t take care of yourself, and that’s a character issue.
Cosmetic surgery shows a poor self image and excessive vanity — with boob jobs topping the list. Who needs the drama of a self-absorbed head case?

I notice even the eyebrows if they are wild an unruly it just irrates me. Also guys with chest hair sticking out of their shirt. I had a doctor that somehow managed to have his showing with a gold necklace around his neck. He was a handsome doctor but that was just so old school and tacky to me. I was living near Decatur at the time so that may explain it.

Professor…I like your list. Attention to the exterior package is important for many reasons. One, attention to detail in appearance is an indication of how much the person respects him/herself, and others, particuarly when it comes to personal hygiene. Also, the exteroro is a good indication, and more than likely a reflection of what’s going on the inside which is really the driver of whether or not I move forward or not.
I’m not suggesting that I run when someone is having a bad hair day. But when I leave my home, I look in the mirror to make sure that I am givng my best self….which also shows that I respect myself.
I’m not a fan of cigarette smoking…but I don’t really know many people who smoke. It’s not a deal breaker though because to me it doesn’t reflect character…it’s an addiction yes, but my mom smoked for decades and I respect her.
Tats…..I am secretly fasinated by them….although I don’t have any. People ALWAYS have a story about why they got one (or more). Their stories give me insights into who they are.
Have a great weekend

Well, that’s one of but not all that I notice. It’s not a determining factor as to character or no but it’s an eye catcher. Funny too, when I’m walking in the building you can spot cheap….cheap (runover) shoes, cheap shirt, cheap pants. Being that this is corporate, the no jacket thing kills me. No t-shirt under their dress shirt. Dress shirt looks like you pulled from the dryer. You can spot quality just as well. Quality slacks (laying flat in the front…no bulging), hitting the shoes just right, suit jacket hanging just right…even to the sleeves hitting the wrists. Clean shaven and a clean cut. Dress shirt laundered…AND a jacket. Yeah, I agree that character runs slightly deeper than that though.

I think that I’ve mentioned this before…..
I stopped dating a female because her nose was too big. It wasn’t proportional to her face. I felt bad about about it, but it seems that I couldn’t stop staring at it when we were together. She had a pug nose.
The rest of the body was banging, though. She looked liked Mrs. Parker from Friday. On top of that she was really sweet and helpful. It was just too much like the Seinfeld episode that dealt with George’s distraction of a female’s nose.

The only people who should have tattoos are sailors and motorcycle gang members. On chicks, they’re ‘tramp stamps’. On guys, they’re just stupid. Why do you suppose most people put them where they usually can’t be seen? In any case, it’s self-mutilation, not body decoration. It shows a lack of respect for one’s self, definitely an indication of character.

Stubble on my legs makes me feel gross.
Luckily for me I’ve got pretty legs and the hair is so thin they always look like I’ve Naired them. The comedienne Mo’Nique doesn’t shave them Chewbaka looking legs she has and she gladly sports them and brags about it….on TV…

No offense, but I tend to refer to motorcycle riders as ‘organ donors’. I know a lot of guys who are into it, my brother and his wife for instance. Living ‘close to the edge’ doesn’t sound that appealing, but I guess… close to the edge of what?
One of my sons got a large tattoo on his upper arm. While it seems to be well executed, but when he showed it to me to get my reaction, I told him “don’t get any more tattoos”. ‘Course, he’s 22, he’ll do what he wants in that regard. He already knew I wouldn’t like it.

@Sassy – My hair is very noticeable and thick like a man’s on all parts of my body. The back of my neck to my toes. My side burns are even very long. When I say I have to shave every part of my body or I would be hairy like a man I am not exaggerating!!!

DK I’m soo cosigning with that 10:30 b/c I have a tat that’s only visible from the back…..dirty pun intended that I don’t ever talk about b/c I like the element of surprise. I also have a piercing but you gotta find it…no it’s not anywhere unusual but like I said the element of surprise is killa.

Most superficial reason I dumped a broad was cause she didn’t pronounce a word correctly, after repeatedly being told the right way. Irked the hell outta me.
Have I changed since? I guess. I am still hyper critical, even with my own flaws.

Nonya, think of it from a parent’s perspective. You brought the child into the world and marveled at the perfection of his little baby’s body, especially the perfect baby skin, with the natural perfume of its perfect scent. Then the boy grows up and defaces that body with a tattoo. It’s grotesque.
Now consider that God functions for us all in much the same way as a caring parent. Defacing the perfect body he gave you is grotesque. Excessive makeup works the same way. Cosmetic surgery works the same way. Such things reveal much about a person’s character.

Ho confirmers that dudes look for:
1. Neck tattoos
2. Big-A tinitty tattoos
3. Top-o-the-azz/lower back tattoos
4. Fake eyelashes
5. Crazy weave
6. Funky attitude
I have heard some guys say that don’t have to shower as much as a female
I’ve heard the opposite – women say that they have to shower more than men – due to the need to keep that cavity ultra-fresh
Professor Spitty lips? WhoTF has spitty lips?! LOL
Except for cultural dreadheads, grown men with long-A hair are too in touch with their feminine side.

@BK – how does having fake eyelashes and a funky attitude is a confirm that a girl is a ho? I have worn a weave and sometimes had a funky attitude. I would love to try fake eyelashes and I am definitely not a ho.

abc – now that your son has a tatt, is he somehow “less” than what he was prior to getting inked? Because if you want to make this a character issue, we learn character traits from our upbringing…our parents, for the sake of debate. Have you somehow failed to instill good character traits in your son because he opted to “deface his body”?
