Slightly Strange Turn offs

Girls who don't have anything to say or too much to say are a turn off. I hate girls with muscle butts...I wanna know I'm with a woman...soft and delicate.

Long fingernails on a man are a major turnoff for me.

Bodybuilder types turn me off in a big way too.

On a humorous note, I'll never date a long-distance runner again. And I do say that with a big smile on my face.
No more runners? As someone who has enjoyed many miles of running and the endurance that comes with it, I'm curious about the origin of this.

On the physical side of things: a tongue in my ear does nothing for me.

Ewwwwww. . . not for me, either. Ditto "mushy" kissers, and that's the only way I know how to say it. . .

Anything fake, especially if it is clearly fake. Fake boobs, fake hair color (especially when the roots are showing), fake nails, fake personality, faked orgasms (not that any girl I've been with had to fake it).

So the party's not over till she screams? :p

Screams, moans, cries, shudders to a stop like a dieseling motor... Depends on the circumstance. I think women have a wider range of orgasm responses than men do.

Although I was mostly being funny, there was some seriousness in that statement. A faked orgasm is a turn-off. Of course, if she fakes it well enough, I wouldn't know it was fake, so I couldn't be turned off.

He was a terrific man. My complaint has more to do with his thinking that long distance running was the only worthy way to stay fit. We had a few healthy arguments about it at the time. He's now head coach for a cross country team at the university level.

What, he didn't believe in pairs aerobics? :devil:
 
Tattoos/Piercings

Someone who smokes; putting aside the smell, if you don't value your body why should I?

Swearing outside the bedroom

Greasy hair

Manky looking teeth.

Generally appearing uncouth.
 
Tattoos on women. Sorry. I know, I know. Several guys in the 'strange turn-on' thread said they're hot , but my momma just raised me to think that only trailer-park trash get tattoos -- and I still can't get beyond it! Y'all might was well grab a Marlboro and watch Nascar, too.

Guess that's why I've always lusted after women who look 'clean' and fresh -- the girl-next-door type.

There's a gorgeous woman at our pool who showed up the other day with a new butterfly tattoo just above her butt. I was crushed. Crushed! How could she taint such a beautiful piece of skin?

I'm surprised this one didn't come up more on this thread.

I'm definitely with you on this one. If I see a woman with a cigarette in her hand, I don't give her a second glance...well, okay, if she's otherwise hot, maybe a second glance...but not a third glance.

There's just something incomprehensible to me about smokers, especially young, attractive women who smoke. I'd just love to say to one of those women, "You know it's bad for you. It says right on the pack that this stuff will kill you, but you started doing it anyway. As good-looking as you are, you sure as hell don't need to smoke to get attention. What's your problem?"

Maybe because it's not slightly strange or strange in any way as a turn off. Smoking is gross and many people realize it...

yeah. religion is a bit of a turn off for me too... not that i think it's BAD but anyone who's devoutly anything is likely going to turn me off.

It's not the level of devotion that's the problem, it's the volume and veracity in which they insist on demanding that everyone else adopt the same belief. I'm sorry, but I've already got what works for me, I don't need their baggage.

Fake ones are even worse, they're definately turn offs for me.

I have to agree about the fakies, they're nice to look at through clothing, but in person they just seem like over filled water balloons. But naturals, I'm all over those! There is a limit to size though, large is great, freakishly large (and usually fake ) are repulsive, after you get past the "train wreck - gotta look" phase. LOL

I don't know my IQ, but I'm probably a jeenyus. (I have a BS with a double major in English and math, and I've done 30 semester hours of graduate work in English/literature.) :cool:

I think that swearing can be a sign of an inarticulate, unintelligent person, but I don't think that's always the case. A lot of us potty mouths know when it's appropriate to swear and when we should shut the fuck up.

Well, I don't have a BS, but I'm full of it! :D

And that last sentence is priceless, thanks for the chuckle Eilan.

That's my feeling too! :( What always crosses my mind is that tat might look cool now, on that 20 year old supple body, but come 20 years and 20 pounds and it's going to look childish. Add another 20 years and 20 pounds and it's going to be downright repulsive.

I don't think I've ever seen an attractive bald guy, so that and extremly short hair also really wild unkept hair. More then about 20 pounds over weight is really pushing it. Guys who don't speak intelligently, guys who don't make some sort of effort to dress nice. Guys that like rap music, drink too much or smoke. Guys who refer to women as bitchs or ho's or something similar when they aren't around. Men in jewelry, unless it's really simple. Guys without a personality. Men who complain alot. Guys that go tanning.

Lot's of single sided views, from everyone, that really need to be extended to both sexes, regardless of circumstance. The big topics have been rude, crass, out of control behavior, and I've seen plenty from both sexes to say that these are not one sided issues.

My biggest turn off are people who inflict themselves on everyone around them, whether it be by demeanor, loud booming music, antagonistic/violent behavior, yelling and screaming, or what-have-you.

I cant stand fake or overly large breasts either.
 
1 - People who are bad at hockey. If you don't play hockey that's grand, but if you play hockey for the love of god please play well.

2 - People who say "youse" as the plural of "you" (y'all is fine though).

3 - People who laugh very, very loudly (especially at stupid things).

4 - High maintenance, emotionally needy men. I'm not saying I prefer cavemen with no emotions, but please, following me around like a lovelorn puppy is *not* *good*!

And especially 2. *shudder*
 
I've found more recently. The first one is gum-chewing.

The other one is a bit harder to explain. Girl who step heavily. Not just the noise of the heel striking the ground, but the sudden jolt that goes through the body.
 
Someone, man or woman, who chews with his or her mouth open. If you have a horrible cold, it is understandable, but otherwise, what in the world would make someone think anyone else wants to see chewed food?

Hands that aren't well built. The size doesn't matter, but if the fingers are not proportionate to the rest of the hand, or some fingers are freakishly longer or shorter than others, it makes me lose interest, even in someone who is otherwise attractive.
 
Women who talk too much

I have a friend that I see about once a week. I can say "Hello", and not get to say anything else for the next hour or more. And I don't even know what she's talking about 60% of the time. She'll start on one subject, then slide into another, and another, and another, and I'm lost.:(
Girls, let ME say something too!
 
What turns me off is when a teenager calls me "ma'am." I know it's supposed to be respectful, but I look like I am in my 20s and I don't take myself too seriously, so please, don't call me ma'am. And corny pick up lines. Who does that anymore? And any man who calls me, to my face, "little lady." Anyone wearing socks with sandals. Speedos.
