"He has to be very tall. Over 6 feet. And wicked smart -- smarter than me, but not in a condescending way. I like a fit man, but I don't want him to be an obsessive gym rat or extreme-sports guy. Has had his heart broken and has broken a heart. Has been around the block and isn't perfect, but is ready to settle down." -- Bad Girl

"The men I am attracted to have three things in common: Intelligence, strength of character, and decency. Smokers, party animals, men who think recreational drugs are kinda cool, men who drink a lot, and any man who's read less than one book in the past month I wouldn't even consider. Not that I think they would consider me either, so it's sort of self-selecting in that respect!" -- Calathea

"[Sample turn-ons, as opposed to must-haves]: Have a dog; Have short hair. Short hair. Look at a seal to see what I mean by "short."(Actually, here's my super bonus ready-made standard of comparison. "How like Lisa Simpson are you?") -- Londonien

"I date only ranchers and cowboys because they tend to possess the qualities/attributes I want in a man. A professional, 'sensitive' man in Dockers just doesn't do it for me, so I'll leave those guys to the multitudes of women who lust after them. It all works out if we just stick with what makes our heart skip a beat and stay true to ourselves. Gotta have: hat, boots, full-size ext-cab truck, mutt, distaste for cultural activities, and a confident strut in jeans." -- Jennie

Well, I think I've made my point. Well, you all have made my point, so thanks. Porsche, fine. But truck too. Or sneakers. Hey, we're just looking for someone to share the driving (with a child safety seat in back, of course). And that -- as opposed to south on Madison -- is the right direction.

PREDICAMENT OF THE WEEK:
"Why can't he see how much I love him?"
