El011 Posted November 15, 2020 Share Posted November 15, 2020 (edited) If you're not full aromantic asexual, what's your usual preference when it comes to people you think are sexually or romantically (for greyros or non-aro allies) attractive? I haven't been romantically attracted to enough people to form a consistent pattern of what i think is romantically attractive yet but commonalities among past romantic crushes are: good sense of humor kind, patient, and compassionate book smart compatible values and morals to mine good with kids and animals (i don't actually want kids, i just think it's sweet when other people are good with them) My type sexually is: men with buff (not like, hulked out but def with muscle definition), tattooed arms and long hair. bonus points if they're wearing long sleeved button down shirts with the sleeves rolled up. petite, curvy women with thick, curly or wavy brown hair androgynous and gender nonconforming people esp long haired, buff, masculine women I'm also generally turned off by people who have a lot of facial hair, a little bit like maybe stubble is fine but if there's a lot of facial hair esp if it's not EXTREMELY well groomed, it's just a complete turn off. So what about everyone else? What kind of people are you normally attracted to? Edited November 15, 2020 by Finn Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jot-Aro Kujo Posted November 15, 2020 Share Posted November 15, 2020 Blond(e)s who can bench press me and/or biker girls. Also demons. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
questdrivencollie Posted November 15, 2020 Share Posted November 15, 2020 Aesthetically, I like blonde, long-haired guys. But I experience aesthetic attraction very little anymore. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
aro-fae Posted November 15, 2020 Share Posted November 15, 2020 When it comes to romantic or sexual attraction, it's kind of a crap shoot. Chaotic personalities? I think that's the only consistent thing. I've only been attracted to maybe 4 people in that manner. 2 of them were very tall women (well, compared to me. They were like 5'10 I think.) Aesthetically I like square jawlines and broad shoulders. If they're goth that's a plus but it's not required. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Atlamillia Pixie Posted November 15, 2020 Share Posted November 15, 2020 Personality wise: witty, intelligent, jackass with a heart of gold. Aesthetically/sexually wise: longer dark hair, clean shave, toned arms/chest/back. Tattoos would be a plus, not gonna lie. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
aro_elise Posted November 22, 2020 Share Posted November 22, 2020 i like pretty guys, you know, delicate features, no facial hair. slim and fit (i love abs 😍) but not muscular. my own waist size of 28", height of 5'10", and age of 22 are practically my upper limits. i often prefer white guys but not necessarily (my fwb is from bangladesh). i like alternative guys and long hair but not important. personality doesn't play much of a part in sexual attraction, i just have to generally like their vibe. although certain talents are attractive. there's this cute guy at my cottage who's a great tennis player (everyone up there plays, i do) and watching his matches is like, wow 😳 also, they have to be comfortable with their masculinity. if they can put on a dress or like, jokingly flirt with a guy (or actually, if they're bi) i'm like 👀 we love to see it.

Skittles87 Posted November 28, 2020 Share Posted November 28, 2020 I'm aroace, but since I occasionally get squishes I've noticed that I do have a "type". I'm drawn to people with: - Expressive faces - Funny, lively, extroverted personalities (I'm super-introverted btw) - ADHD. Seriously, it has happened too often for it to be a co-incidence. Looks don't seem to come into it, unless you count expressiveness as aesthetic. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
cyancat Posted November 28, 2020 Share Posted November 28, 2020 i tend to jive w the adrogynous aesthetic. used to think i had a sexual/romantic attraction to those types but eh? in terms of personality, i'm not sure if i actually have a type. literally anyone who i get along with, i'll probably be following like a sad puppy dog. not romantically alsdjf, but squish wise, yeah. i'm really excitable so just anyone who will let me be excitable w them i cling onto sob. bonus points if they're excitable w me. asjdlksdfkl,,, Quote Link to post Share on other sites

ScarfOfSexualPreference Posted December 21, 2020 Share Posted December 21, 2020 I find that my obsessive fictional squishes are mostly skinny white guys, who're usually nerdy. But I guess that's just who I get along with in real life, so I figure that's who I'm drawn to.
