Most often it is an inborn characteristic and is a combination of characteristics that people find atttractive.\nIt can be developed but the whole point of the charisma of a person is its naturalness.

the reason why people do is on the level of acceptance, which is not right. people feel that if they are with someone good looking then it will help boost them in some way. my opinion you have to be true to yourself and not put up a front in order to feel accepted. if your not true to u, u are lying to yourself and that's not good.

Well, quite apart from the fact that some are not...\n\nIt's because we have a natural desire to procreate that we find  the opposite sex attractive.\n\nBut, in general you're right, they are...

I think it's a combination of both.  Sometimes people are quick to get involved with someone who is goodlooking, but soon find out that they are a creep.  But I do think that the people who have a great personality are usually attractive to the people who are attracted to them.  Goodlooking to one person may be ugly to another person.  Example- In my opinion, my sister is attracted to the ugliest guys I've ever seen. But she thinks that they are FINE!

Well looks are only part of it.  I know that one thing I find sexy about models is their confidence level.  I've met some women that wouldn't be considered very attractive physically by society standards that really shine because of confidence.  Of course there are guys that are so superficial that all they care about are looks but those guys are typically losers.

everyone loves to feel attractive and that is why people tease,but it does not mean they want to jump into bed with you,they just want to know they are still desired by others

People like to say that looks dont matter and its whats on the inside that truely counts. While this is true in theory is is most often not very true in practice.\n\nMost people given the choice between an average looking person who has a great personallity and an attractive person with a bad personality will go with the attractive person. I think the reason is that people think of their boyfriends/girlfriends a fashion items. "Nice coat!" "Cute shoes!" "Oh nice boyfriend! You got the whole set."\n\nI had a big time crush on a friend of mine who is in a wheelchair. She is awesome to be with, kick ass, and a beatiful person. Our lives went to very different paths so we never dated but I sure as hell wanted to.\n\nIf the person cares for you as a person, none of that shit should matter.

What we find atractive is confidence. \nIf a girl isn't very pretty compared to the society standards but she's confident, we find her atractive anyway, and maybe over hot girls with perfect 10 bodies!!

Symmetry attractiveness is based on facial and bodily symmetry.  It's scientific!  We are brainwashed by our respective culture to think that genes (race, hair color/length and eye colour are what determines another's attractiveness)  Although height in men has been scientifically and unscientifically been proven to be a desirable trait.  In general men are attracted to youthful looking women hence the attraction.  This leads to our sexist attitudes of older women being "crones", "hags" etc while OLD men are "distinguished"  Since oxygen effects all people the same way we should all be considered old when the time comes.  But I digress.  If your friends didn't think you were pretty they wouldn't say anything to you about the subject of your looks.

Being attractive is a matter of feeling good about oneself. When one feels good about herself, she takes care of herself like practicing cleanliness and proper hygiene as well as neatness. Also, when one feels good about herself, she has self-confidence. People gravitate towards those who have good self-concept.

Many men/women tend to look past that quality which makes that person special.  Our society rewards beauty, and while this is not fair, it is a fact.\n\nFor those who are guided by their own standards and phiolsophy, we see the person for what they are. Caring, loving. Worth having.  Hope this has helped.

Obviously, the first thing you notice about someone is their appearance. There are still a few of us guys that look beyond that though. I have dated some very good looking gals that I lost interest in due to lack of conversation. I have dated several ordinary/plain looking gals and had far better relationships with them. To some of us, what's inside means more than what's outside, but noone wants someone they aren't physically attracted to.

Human beings are visual creatures (particularly men - no offense intended). It might be something purely superficial, but it might also be that they want to have some sort of visual impression of you to hold in their mind when you're chatting online or on the phone. Of course, it could just be that whoever it is has their priorities all screwed up and insist on having only attractive friends, significant others, and aquaintances...

"As an employer, do you find physically attractive person to be of advantage to the organisation ?"\n\nI think that's a very good question to put in ur questionnaires !\n:)

Hmmmmmm, here I go being Shallow Hal again, but I can't help being truthful. There first has to be some sort of attraction in the physical sense, and for most of us that means different attributes. After the initial attraction, I listen to them speak and watch how they treat other people. I look for people who are intelligent, but not arrogant or bossy. I like confident women, but not mean spirited or waspish ones. People who show respect for others without being wishy washy or kissing ass also get high grades from me. Most of all I look for people who are confident enough with themselves that they realize they don't have to try and change or "improve" others around them. That, to me is a manifestation of great inner insecurity and a lack of sensitivity and respect for others.
