And What Sinks Your Battleship?

I don't normally judge a person by their cover, men or women. The most off-putting people can turn out to be the gentlest, most loving people of all. I would have to get to know them before I made any decisions about them, but we all have our afflictions, my friend. I feel sorry for those who are cast aside because of their looks and I will go out of my way to befriend them. For instance, there is a disabled guy in a nearby town (you might know it.. Burgess Hill), who has to spend his life in a wheelchair. He dribbles and twitches, but inside, he's the loveliest person you could meet. He's humorous, great to chat to, and he makes the most of his life, despite his disabilities. I have a lot of time for him, and won't let the "turn-off" qualities interfere with that. There are many different people in this World, and each one of them needs love and friendship. If I can provide that in some small way, I will, because despite the way they seem outwardly, their beauty shines through. Brightest Blessings, my dear friend.

Being musclebound is the biggest turn-off for me when it comes to men. I'm more fond of lean muscle on a guy. I like my men to be able to bend, to have reflexes, that sort of thing. :P Of course, being as hairy as a gorilla would be sort of a turnoff too, but that comes back to my liking androgyny a lot. :P

after the last few days I would say call centre's , I have had dealings with AOL ,and BT , it isn't the poor people in the call centre's fault , but I need to speak to someone who understands what I am saying , It has been driving me bl**dy bammy.To crown it all I am no further forward,xx

Ok here's a good opportunity for all of us who fancy men to say what we don't fancy about them LOL! How long have you got? Here's my list: 1) Men who don't shower every day - you gotta be hygienic lads sorry! 2) Men who don't shave facial hair, sorry, but stubble doesn't do it for me... 3) Men who think women are not their equal - I hate it when men refer to women as inferior to them, it makes me want to knock them out! 4) Men who don't dress to impress - I hate it when guys don't make the effort on a special occasion, come on lads, we do, so how about you show us the same courtesy? 5) Men who cheat - if you think it's acceptable for your pals to cheat, it's because you have that mentality yourself - which means you're a no go area for me... 6) Men who are violent - not just to women but those who have a drink and start fights with random people - it's not big, it's not clever and it doesn't impress us gals! 7) Men who preen themselves: I can't stand it when men are overly vain and spend every other moment glancing at themselves in a mirror or window to see how they look - it pays to look smart but really you don't need to check that you're still good looking every 30 seconds. 8) Men who don't pay attention - you know the ones who expect you to listen to their every word and when you talk about your day, they zone out and just mutter "hmmm" every so often and can't repeat what you've just said if you ask them. 9) Men with vulgar habits - burping out loud and farting and then laughing about it isn't funny - at least say "excuse me" if you can't help it. And God, don't pick your nose in public, it's not pleasant to watch and nor is eating with your mouth open so we can see the contents being regurgitated PLEASE! 10) Smelly guys - ok so you shower every day but you also work out, don't come and try to kiss me with sweat all over you, people might say natural body odour is sexy but it makes ME want to heave, so back off till you've had a shower! Shall I go on? Ok I think I sound like one of those awful emails you get slagging off guys, it wasn't meant to be, but you opened a minefield there Wolfie hun haha! So glad to say that my lovely hubby has barely any of these bad habits, he does like a good loud burp though LOL! x

Hi Son I try not to judge and I would never hold something against someone that they can not help I do get very turned off when someone looks down on someone else and when someone brags excessively people that push others around physically or emotionally bother me alot This is about men or women where I am concerned xoxoxoxoxox

Dumb men. I mean them ones that you can barely hold a conversation with because the braincells have left the building. I don't care if a guys has Brad Pitt's body, if I can not hold an conversation with the guy, the torpedo wins.

A stupid acting as a know all.Yuck

i don't really know. but i have had 2 BFs and i woke up one day feeling no love for them both. and so i was the one who lost the love and not the other way around. generally speaking, i would be turned off perhaps if a man has no dream, and is contented with the kind of life he has... being me, i like to think about the future, dream of better things... maybe if he cannot sustain such thinking that i have... i would have taken a step back and re assess my feelings for the person.

Wellll.. everyone's shallow. So there's always something about a man that'll turn a woman off. I think something that would completely turn me off is if he doesn't take care of himself. I understand some people can't help it (Be it diabetes or something else) But if you're overweight simply because you're lazy, or your house is a mess because you don't feel like cleaning. Then I have a HUGE Problem with you.. stuff like that.

The biggest turn of is a pompous man who thinks women were put on the earth just to look after him. Smelly men who thinks its masculine not to use deodrant or wash UGH A man who picks his nose and eats it UGH UGH A man who thinks his bear belly is everyones dream and passes win to prove he's a man

First of all physical aspect, his teeth...they shud be clean...really clean...And the emotional aspect, he shud not be dominating...dominating me 4 everything...Like he is the king of this world and i have to c him that way...well i have seen both types of guys and that really turns me off

You know the one...he is physically unattractive....but things he is cool...god's gift to wormen and does not know what the meaning of "NO" is...he is pushy...crude...does not want to hear anything but what he wants to hear...he wants to show you he is a "man!" and really wants to "get to know me"...ewwwwwwwwww!!

Okay this one is a little harder to answer. I don't like meeting a man that is stinky, armpits not washed. I don't like a man that is all hairy. I don't like a man that has too much confidence, to the point he is conceited and arrogant. I don't like a man that is flashy with his clothes or his money. I don't like a man that shows off. I think that is about it.

Hi wolfie34! Oh what will def turn me off is a man of empty promises. A man who will constantly say "Tomorrow we are going to do this or that" and it never happens. A man who will never follow through on his word. That just stops my heart, basically. Or a man who never ever celebrates the little silly "days" of the year with his woman. Birthdays...Christmas...Anniversaries...Sweethearts Day... Silly things like this really really matter to me. Ohhh I cherish the mere idea of a handwritten note just to send a bit of love. It's amazing how when you are just dating how some men will really put on a show for you. You know, be very very attentive and thoughtful. And then when they HAVE you, it just stops. No more roses...no more quiet head on chest discussions. Uh oh, I am saying too much here. LOL. But just to say that if a man just does not do what he promises, after a while my heart just sinks.... I am def not male bashing by any means. I have one target in my sights. Ahhhhh yeah....maybe I can borrow that torpedo, huh wolfie??? kitkatgal

I don't like to be around men who are arrogant, think they are better than everyone else and have no sense of humor. I guess it is not just men, I don't like being around anyone who has those traits. That is probably the first thing that will turn me off. Looks don't matter so much to me because I know several very handsome men who are absolute jerks! I would rather date an average looking guy who knows how to get along with everyone and is easygoing.

I get really turned off with guys who are too full of themselves and who can't help boasting about how good they are. Ewwww! I also get turned off with guys who have dirty fingernails and toenails. LOL! I can't help it. When some guys starts to court me, I would always look at their nails very discretely if they are clean and well cut. Also, I would always run away from any guy who are smelly. But most of all, I get turned off with a guy who seems to have no ambition and intiative to better themselves and guys who sees women as play things.

Arrogance and totally Machismo bullshite! Yep thosse are the worst things as far as I am concerned! xxx

Guys, Guys, Guys. Hmmmm...Well, though I am not in love at all right now with anybody, you've gotta cherish many men. But just like women, every one is so darn different. But growing up much of my life, many of my closest friends were guys. And so I always saw so many positives on guys. You could actually go on long walks and just talk about reality, life, meaning, sad, happy, precious things to you. With girls, "gabbing" is much easier I suppose, and chatting about frivolous things (unless you are really close). So, thank you guys! But if it's a general question, hee hee, I wish I could stand it, but my body/nose can't stand it if it is a bad sweat stench which a strong odor. Otherwise, the sweat won't kill me. What turns YOU off from men? :o)

that's easy! there is only two things that I would say that makes me want to run away... a man who is humorless or lacking personality! appearances can be altered or fixed to your liking... BUT being with someone who has the sense of humor and/or personality that resembles a wet dish rag does it for me... those things can rarely be fixed and it's just better to walk away. Good looks fade with time but personality goes the extra mile... and I will tell ya a secret... make a woman laugh and she's yours forever! lol!

I don't mind goatie type beards but what really turns me off is a full face beard that is grubby with whatever they have last eaten, it also makes me think they are trying to hide something, also like blokes probably wouldn't like in a woman bad hygiene or really bad stained teeth. Other than that I tend to look to personality rather than looks or them being too skinny or fat or short or tall, I look beyond all that. Ellie :D
