Gentlemen, listen up: if you’re searching for a sweetie, put down your weights and find a pair of sexy glasses (whether you need them or not). According to a recent onepoll.com survey, most females prefer bespectacled gents that don’t waste a lot of time on their appearance. With Valentine’s Day around the corner, it’s a good time to uncover what women really want. You may be surprised at what ranks top in the minds—and hearts—of most females.
Soft Around the Middle is A-OK
The amount of time some guys spend tending to their muscles is directly disproportionate to the number of women who are actually turned on by big muscles. Sure, most ladies like a strong man who can open the occasional jar when needed, but the beefcake look is more of a niche preference these days.
Having Four Eyes is Hot Again
Wearing glasses when you’re a kid can be trauma inducing. When you’re a single guy on the prowl, however, glasses can perform like a potent aphrodisiac. Society certainly has come a long way since Revenge of the Nerds. Glasses give off an air of intelligence, and women are suckers for smarty-pants.
Let Those Tears Roll, Brother
While it’s not advisable to go around blubbering at every sentimental greeting card commercial, the ladies do like it when a guy is secure enough to let a few tears escape during a flick. Crying after your favorite team loses is all right too. Women, believe it or not, really dig when a dude is passionate about a particular sports team…just try not to let your passion turn into an obsession.
Why David Spade Always Has a Beautiful Woman by His Side
Ever notice how average-looking comics always seem to have the hottest girlfriends? Think about it for a second: a hearty laugh makes anyone feel great. A good laugh can lighten the darkest of moods. From a woman’s perspective, what could be better than a guy who makes them laugh when they’re feeling blue or moody? David Spade and Carmen Electra make a lot more sense when you realize that humor usually trumps muscles in the eyes of a female.
Don’t Wash That Gray Right Out of Your Hair
Another shocker: females are attracted to gray hair. If you’re going prematurely gray, don’t bother with dyes and just be thankful. There’s something about a little salt-and-pepper on top that makes the ladies swoon. Perhaps it’s because gray hair makes a guy seem wise and…experienced.

Love this post! and I definitely agree with the gray on the hair point. Might have to show this to my husband:)
Thanks for stopping by! I agree with the point of it being okay to be soft around the middle. I like to have a something to hold on to. Muscular guys are nice to look at but are tough to hold.
this is interesting. I wear glasses, and I must say it’s not the glasses alone, but the man’s personality behind the glasses…hmmm, I’m wondering if the author is pushing the “hotaaglasses perspective” because she happens to work as a contributor for “Just Eyewear, a prescription glasses/sunglasses retailer? 🙂 I’m just sayin
…i meant to say “hot glasses perspective”….i must have been typing on my mobile a little too fast lol
