What do guys think about minor physical problems in girls?

Question

I walk with a bit of a limp, as a result of spinal surgery from 3 years ago. Although I currently have a boyfriend, I'm curious to know, are guys turned off by girls who have minor problems like mine? Would they, in general, still consider going out with girls who have little problems?

Answer 1

Current knowledge tells us that most of what we consider physical attractiveness is actually indicators of good health (clear skin, bright eyes, shiny hair, etc.). Symmetry is also a powerful factor of physical beauty, as are graceful movements. So a limp does indeed mark a person as being less than perfect.

However, other factors can counter this. Overall good looks can certainly help (Halle Berry would still be hot with "a bit of a limp"). And don't forget the power of personality -- a person with lots of personal charisma will have plenty of would-be romantic partners in spite of some physical imperfections. Just look at Benjamin Franklin, who was considered a ladies' man in spite of being overweight and suffering from gout (when he was over 50, no less!).

Answer 2

I think that if you're generally attractive and a good person you wont have a problem most of the time.

Answer 3

def, everyone has minor "problems", one of my gf's legs is a little shorter than the other and she is the sexiest woman i have ever laid eyes (and err, other things) on....

Not every man is Ken, and not every woman is barbie.
