I have observe that many men are first attracted to women who have beautiful body and faces, who wears highheels, with sexy clothes are enough reasons to drives them crazy with affection. But, most women are in for the entire packages of general grooming inside and outside their personality. I like to know if is true that men are more visual than women? Do you believe?

Im not sure of what is really true since I dont have the exact statistics myself but Im sure that there are studies out there in these kinds of behavior. I have to say though that people in general are visually oriented. We learn more when we see it in its entirety and physiologically. And since men seem to be interested in physical attractiveness in women at the first meeting. I guess it triggers their primal urges or something. They superficially choose who they are attracted to at the first impressions and then just get to know them to decide whether they want to stay with them or not. I think women also do the same thing. I mean see first if they are attracted to someone then get to know them if there's also substance in those flashy smiles. Something like that.

I think both men and women see first and get their first impression on the physical rather than on the internal attitude which seen as the second priority during the first meeting between opposite sexes. As the relationship grows and last for a long time, the attitude is more important to be the basis when selecting the best person to keep our company especially as we grow old. Physical beauty doesn't last what matter that counts is on the inside. Thus, we realize at the end that lasting relationship are not only built in the beauty of the face, richness or luxury that one's have in life but rather with the sincere effort to be honest, loving and with instant communication and understanding. In addition, to make God as the center of love, coupled with respect and trust. With all this elements, I am sure every relationship will be succesful.

Yeah, a lot of men and women are visual too. They appreciate most the outer appearances rather than the internal appearances. Men in general i think is the more visual they tend to appreciate pretty things and dislike ugliest things even in some aspects they have been not good looking too, but they are hard to admit it.

Your observations match with what most psychologists tell us. However there are some men who are more visually stimulated by another type, such as a large woman. It is true, however that grooming, whether male or female adds to the attractiveness of the whole package. People are attracted to people who like and respect themselves enough to take normal grooming seriously.

As addition to what I observe, men choose a mate taht awkens their whole body senses. Some men prefer to court thin, fat, average, and athletic women. They have different styles and often appreciate fantasy over reality. They're very hard in maintaining fidelity to one's partner. Relentlessly, they are more on the physical side. Women, on the other hand is emotional and expect her partner to listen more. They are partly visual, but is rarely the focus. What matter most is respect and trust is enough to bond any relationship longer.

Yes, but not exactly for the reasons you listed. For example, I feel like if I'm going to date a girl I should at least be physically attracted to her (not to be a friend.. I mean for dating purposes) before I dated her. I don't believe that guys are instantly attracted to thinks like high heels and sexy clothes, but just my opinion.

You go for a dates to know this girl and you choose her among the many girls you have meet before or at present encounters. Of course, the physical is the most visible things that is why you like a girl, because of her face. if she is ugly no matter how kind she is. many guys are hesitant to make a move to date her. as a woman to other men is like a trophy that need to be display...

First of all,I am a boy,so,as a man,I have to say,I am a visual man,if a girl's face or body do not attracted me at the beginning then I will not have the further interest to know her deeply.
