I'm a kiwi living in England and my goodness I miss NZ Blokes. Who the hell cares if you're a little bit hairy or carrying a little extra - you're a bloke; no offense but you're not supposed to be pretty! I can't speak for all females, but I want to feel like the woman in the relationship; my biggest turn off - a guy who looks like he would take longer in the mirror than I would!

@Rach 107. Hey Rach, obviously you live in Eketahuna!! Go for a stroll thru Courtenay Place any Friday - Sat night between 9.00 - midnight. That's where you will see all the "look at me's" parading around thinking they look like Lady Gaga!! Trouble is they are hardly able to stand upright! 'Real' Kiwi young ladies - yeah right!!

All i can say is my hubby may not be perfect for everybody but he is perfect for me and thats all i want, someone loving and caring who always has my back, his looks may have attracted me but its the rest of him that has kept us together for 7 years

I am hairy (front and back) and even though my partner says she doesn't care I cannot bring myself to go out in public without a shirt *(even when swimming). I keep in good shape but have been ridiculed because of my back over the years so it's not just women who are paranoid about the way they look. All you women saying 'hairy backs are yuk' should think about the guys like me. I wish I could change it but it's just the way I am.

Perhaps you did not notice that I said "Thats what I find attractive" ?!?

Because that IS what I find attractive, less hair. You have no right to tell me what I can and what I can not find attractive.

There would be many women like me and there would be many women that do find hair attractive. But that is my view, and I will thank you kindly to not put down my own personal perferances beacuse you do not agree with them

@ Phil #115

Well put.

Oh and for the record I like a 'real woman' someone who is active, beautiful, has a great personality and character that challenges me..which has meant lately me taking a liking to a girl from my church who came off her bike and tore up her right quad, to top it off she has the cutest accent, and a gorgeous smile/laugh, but the cherry on top is that she is a real woman, one full of character I look for, a kind heart and wisdom.

I thought all you guys would be happy that 'we're' not all looking for that 'pefect' Brad Pitt look alike. Obviously not. Instead you'd rather moan and tell us how awefull we are. No wonder you're not doing well with the lades.

Hmm I think comments like 'Hair: YUCK' are immature to be honest, lol..any woman would realize that hairiness is GENETIC, and not a choice thing, and with men, if they choose to shave an area the hair will come back twice as fast and three times as thick. Perhaps 'Hair: no thanks, not my taste' would be more appropriate considering the medium within which these comments are being made are static text and tone is inserted, not heard.

As for me..meh Im a man, I have hair on my chest and under my arms, thats the way I like it, I wouldn't shave my chest as I don't fancy a rug being there within the next 2 weeks. I shave my face and other areas as needed, like it or lump it, no woman is going to change me because thats what she wants, relationships are about sacrifice.

And for all those women who complain about guys being picky...you're asking a lot of guys to change genetics, not go to the gym for an hour or two a day, five days a week.

Damn straight! The Metro-Hetro (in abundance in Auckland) is UNattractive
