Leave this up for a day or two. When I'm not feeling sick, I'll answer.
(Seriously. I feel like crap, and I really want to answer, but I can't.) :(
EDIT: OK, I'm feeling a bit better. That was weird.
The first thing to remember is that no two women are exactly alike. So, none of us can provide a blanket answer. I will speak from my experiences and from the women I know.
What does a woman want?
I want to be content. I want security. I want loyalty. I want fun. Those are the biggies for me. I can provide myself contentedness, security, and fun. But loyalty has to come from loved ones.
What I want is different from other women. Some women want everything. Some women just want a man, period. Some women want a rich man. Some women want a man with a huge Johnson. Some women want Vin Diesel. I'm not one of those women, and I know many women who aren't either. In fact, I don't want a rich man because I make my own money. I want a man who knows how to use his Johnson. And I think Vin Diesel is hideous. So, what do women want? It depends. I know someone who just got married to a wealthy man. He was socially attractive (well built, attractive face, etc.). He had a lot of money. He had a successful career. He had his own house. And she married him because that meant she could be a stay at home mom. And more power to her. I wouldn't never go that direction, but some women still want that.
What do I look for in a man?
Physically: dark hair, dark-ish eyes, big nose, tall, clean cut, any body type. Again, I'm a little different. My fiance is heavy. I like a man with a big belly. I'm a little odd that way. I also like my guys on the nerdy side. Glasses are a good thing. For my "type," see my avatar. :) His name is David Tennant.
Emotionally: As long as he doesn't need his mother's approval and he isn't constantly b*tchy, I'm good. I prefer emotional maturity. That's why I date older men. My sister wanted to have fun, and she ended up marrying a younger, emotionally immature man. Guess what? They are on the verge of divorce. Most women want stability in a life partner, and someone who goes out and parties several nights a week won't provide that. That's what my sister's husband does, and she's left at home to take care of three boys.
Mentally: I absolutely love smart men. I will give up looks for a guy with a brain. I love cynicism, skepticism, sarcasm, and wit. I love, LOVE a man who pulls out pop culture references in conversation. And he absolutely has to have a sense of humor. Of course, compassion and sensitivity are important, but I like a man who is balanced mentally and emotionally.
Again, my best friend is completely different. She doesn't like cynical guys. She doesn't get half of my pop culture references or my fiance's. My sister is also different like that.
So, again, it completely varies by woman.
As for what makes a man attractive, I like subtle confidence. I think most women do, too. Cocky jerks are right out unless the woman is looking for a bad boy. But that's usually for short term entertainment. :)
I think every man has some sort of attractive quality, both physically or mentally. I think Donald Trump is hideous, but the guy has perfect teeth. Gotta give him credit for that, even if he did pay for a lot of dental work.
I think the reason I really wanted to answer this question is because it gets asked so many times, but no one ever stops to say, "There is no simple answer." And it isn't because women are indecisive and finicky. It's because women are incredibly diverse. Men are trying to understand women as a whole; it's no wonder they are so confused.
I will tell you one thing though. I think every straight woman on this planet wants a man who is true to himself.
I could go on and on, but I want to stop there. Maybe I'll write a book some day (too late, right).

That is a nonproductive question. I.e., it doesn't get you where you want to be. Being yourself, being the best you that comes to mind, is the sexiest thing alive. No matter what we thought we wanted, it turns into You when we see that.
Patience is important. Tolerance. Because no matter how appealing you may be, we realize that you're nothing but a "poster" in our lives, a hope quickly followed by a memory, unless you have the kindness and gentlenss to put up with Us!

I'll take that dare!
A good memory!!!! Little details.
The old saying "Don't sweat the small stuff!"
Does not apply to women! We live in the small details.
Appearance has no bearing.
EDIT: Sorry, I must have given Grit my cold. Plenty of rest!!!!
...I guess I can delete the rest of my post, since she's gone. hmmmmm.... I wonder who hit the abuse button???

His overall choice of consumer products, like does he drink Sprite?, what aftershave does he use?, car?,...
Apart from that, probably looks and personality of course, but close behind, I've found it's usually true, I've heard it so many times: SENSE OF HUMOUR!
In fact, since I'm not good-looking and have a terrible personality, it's the only explanation I can think of for my being married to a lovely lady!

Honesty and kindness along with intelligence and a sense of humor.
I think most of us know in 10 minutes if there is a chance in hell. We just know.
Features? I like large hands and kind eyes with a sincere smile.
Don't feed me any lines because I am not stupid.

I look for charm and wit. A sense of humor is imperative, honesty, kindness. I want a man that is secure enough to allow me my independence yet strong enough to allow me to be dependent should I need to be.
