Poll: What do you (or did you) look for most in a date?

I saw a video that humans are no longer evolving as survival of the fittest but are chosing partners based on attractiveness and intelligence. What do you look for most in a date?

One answer.

No one looks for one thing do they - if your date looks like Heidi Klum but they start extolling the virtues on Mein Kampf half way through the date 98% of people are walking away.

If I had to choose one thing it's probably not on your list and that's kookiness, I like my date to be a bit kooky or have something unique about them.

Unless they were the usual racists from NSC, of course.

All of the above.

Couldn't pick one, so the only box I can tick here is 'Compatibility' which I guess covers all based..

The stone in the middle.

Not so quick, a tenner Tesco meal deal and she wants it in the 'backyard' on a first date seems fair value

Laughter and silliness above all. If a partner, or friends for that matter, can't amuse me, I don't really see the point.

Now this is my dream date.

 

[halbpro]

Needs to have the day and the month in there. Year is more optional.

 

[Prince Monolulu]

I think it is imperative that a mutual respect and compatibility is essential to form the basis of a solid relationship, whether it be platonic or more emotional and physical.

I think K'B'W should compile some sort of questionnaire to aid clarification in this area.

I'd rather they had a sense of humour, and more than two brain cells, than cracking big norks.

 

[Notters]

Surely has to be a combination of all of those (except wealth) or there is no point?

I saw a video that humans are no longer evolving as survival of the fittest but are chosing partners based on attractiveness and intelligence..

Surely that is quite literally the survival of the fittest? If that's what people are selecting then it's still natural selection.

Also "survival of the fittest" has not generally been used in an evolutionary sense since the 1870s.

 

[Herr Tubthumper]

The wife goes for the top 4 obviously.

 

[Buzzer]

A pulse.

Oh, and eyes. They must have eyes. The more the better.

A cock ?

Poof.

did it explain why those criteria aren't considered the "fittest"? given our main evolutionary advantage is intelligence, i'd say its the best criteria.

 

[Marshy]

I went for attractiveness, simply because despite how great a personality they may have or how much they make you laugh etc you still need to be half decent looking for that to work on me.
