or when it's just convenient for them?

I have to admit i never thought i would like a sensitive guy.
I have always like the tough ruff guy.. but i realized i really didn't know what i liked.
Till i found a guy that had the ruff exterior, but inside was this very sweet and sensitive guy..
I do enjoy it, i love him more so because i know he loves me and expresses so in a sensitive caring manor.

I love guys who are sensitive to the needs of others. Empathetic is perhaps a better word. You can't have too much empathy.
I don't like guys who are overly sensitive to what other people say or think about them. I can't stand guys whose feelings get hurt too easily, because I feel like I have to tiptoe around them.
I especially can't stand guys who feel the need to constantly bolster themselves up by showing off their sporty car, expensive clothes, hot girlfriend, or whatever else. (The latter may not sound like a sensitive guy, but he really is; he is FAR too sensitive to what people think of him.)
I guess what I should say is that I like men who are more sensitive with others' feelings and less sensitive with their own. I think most women--and men, too--would agree with me here. Selfishness is not an attractive quality, in anyone.

Yes but not too sensitive otherwise it can get annoying! It's good to show a guys sensitive side I actually like that about a guy but I can tell if a guy is too much then I'd tell him to be a man about it.

Yes...in this sense of the word: "having acute mental or emotional sensibility; aware of and responsive to the feelings of others."
Not the sensitivity where they react really emotionally to things necessarily, but sensitive to OTHER people and their feelings.
Women want that cuz a lot of guys are oblivious to how we feel. If a guy is sensitive he may not do/say certain things which hurt us.
A guy who cries a lot is not even necessarily sensitive; he may just be self-absorbed.

That is a question that is not as perennial as many would have us think. The brazen fascination with bad boys is a definite trend in the last few decades. Women's need for sensitivity/lack of sensitivity is extremely complex, even for them. They don't have their minds made up and aren't doing much about it.

Women like to have "flings" with "bad boys", but most will seek out a "sensitive, mature" man to marry. Usually, but not always.
At the 20th high school reunion, the nerds will have been successful, the pretty boys will work for the nerds and the bad boys will either be dead or in jail.

I like romantic guys but not really sensitive guys. I need someone who isn't more sensitive than I am. But a little romance is ALWAYS nice.

Yes sensitive guys are nice bring them on. Where are all of them? I just got to meet the right one who is well balanced and not a stalker or a control freak.

I like sensitive guys all the time, but not overly sensitive. If your crying at Hallmark commercials, you might be a little over the top!

There is a thin line between being sensitive and being a whiner. Ideally a sensitive man is nice.
