What qualities do you find attractive?

For me it is VOICE!   I will date myself but I love voices like Michael McDonald, Kelsey Grammer, Kenny Loggins.  Oddly enough, Chef is an epic fail in this department.  He is a bit of a high talker but VERY loud.

My first ex had a "face for radio" but his voice was definitely broadcasting quality.  What is attractive to you (besides someone who is child-free)?

I do like a nice voice as well. Something about a man's presence and how he holds himself is attractive. It's harder to see over things like a nice smile or eyes, but I like someone who is in charge of their life and holds themself like a man instead of a boy, ya know?

Kenny Loggins! I am as dated as you are, but not nearly at my expiration date.

My DH is a musician and sings beautifully.

I also like a nice cologne, but not too much. Just a hint. And somebody who looks me in the eye and smiles.

Modesty, strength, humour, a nice smile, groundedness, deep voice.  But my ExH (now passed away) had a gravelly voice and also looked a lot like Kris Kristofferson - but that didn't end well at all.

Nice arms, not overly sculpted, but just enough so when they pick something up or unintentionally flex and you see that bit of muscle...swoon.

A man who has an appetite for vegetables is attractive to me.

Eyes... Sounds cliche... But nice eyes go a LONG way...

I also have a thing about teeth...  I don't mind if they're slightly messy... But when they start getting messy enough I'm not attracted whatsoever...

Sense of humor, definitely. Knows the difference between "there," "their," and "they're." ROFL

My DH has a voice like Sam Elliot. I never tire of listening to him. ~swoon~

Intelligent, sense of humor, hard-working, kind, and modest. One thing I find very attractive is a man who is a Mr. Fix It (my DH is). Something I find EXTREMELY attractive about my DH is that he can live off of the land. Not just growing veggies, but literally living off of what is readily available during any season (fishing, hunting, roots, berries, vegetation) AND creating shelter. Just the thought of his big, strong, banged up, scarred, capable hands doing ANYTHING is making me giddy.

I thought of your DH and Sam Elliott as soon as I read "voice!" You are one lucky gal! (This was in response to Aniki)

Kind supportive nature 

Good hygiene 

Resilience 

Education 

Full time professional employment 

I don't care about looks, height or voice. I care what's in their brain and heart.

I do LOVE my DH's accent

I tend to be attracted to taller men.

Looks are a bonus but I really like a sense of humour, respect, intelligence and if he treats me well.

Sense of humor, can make me laugh, tall, nice build, eats mostly healthy but down to have a junk food sesh every now and again, nice smile, emotionally intelligent.

It's funny OP brought up voice bc my BF is so masculine (6'3" defined jaw line, muscular build, in-shape) and I was surprised that his voice was kind of higher than expected.... so not the best feature lol. I read somewhere that the higher a man's voice is, the more threatening he comes off initially, and lower voices are less threatening.
