(... don't shoot the messenger)
i know what boys like. i do. because they tell me. i am forever hearing about this mythical "perfect woman" ... this elusive "miss right" ... (ahem. make that ms.) ... that my male friends claim to be unable to find.
so i quizzed them until i came up with a list. and to my amazement, not only did they agree on almost everything, this "perfect woman" seems to involve a lot more of words like "understanding" and "secure", and a lot less of "perfect ass" than i expected.
although some of this may still sound kind of horrid and sexist, it is all honest, and not nearly as awful as it might have been, so i have left it as is. yucky bits included.
so, on behalf of (at least) 4 eligible, intelligent, much-loved and dearly respected male friends of mine, i give you ...
"the perfect woman"
1. she's healthy: healthy weight, healthy body, healthy mind. no bullshit like starving yourself or obsessive unfounded jealousy.
2. she's secure: no man likes an egomaniac, but neither can they value a woman who doesn't value herself.
3. she's herself: it's great to have things in common, but taking on all sorts of new stuff just to impress a man is guaranteed to do the exact opposite.
4. she's independent: she's happy to maintain her own friends and add a man to her life, not make him the purpose of it.
5. she's honest: if you expect to get the truth, you should give it.
6. she's realistic: no princesses or daddy's little girls' need apply. no man is interested in living up to a preconceived ideal.
7. she's smart: (exactly how smart is relative to the guy himself), but the days of the trophy bimbo are so over.
8. she's a woman: she wears her female aura with pride and is not ashamed to be a woman.
9. she's sensual: attitude wins over experience hands down in the bedroom and everywhere else.
10. she's a little wild: just in private, just for him.
so, there you have it. and remember ... please don't kill me ... i was only following orders ... so, are they right ? ... feedback would be adored
