What do you notice first in a woman?

I tend to notice the hair, eyes and smile first...what about you? The face is the most important thing for me personally.

I am a big face person. If the person has a nice face I am usually sold. That being said I really like eyes, smiles, and forearms.

Eyes

Can't help it- every time its the eyes that get me :)

face

Ha yeah so far I must agree, and say the face.  However, to be more specific the eyes...shape and colour.  Big brown eyes just make me melt.  After eyes it's smile.  A big, warm, kind smile is another melting point for me.  If she has big brown eyes and that warm smile i love - forget it, I'm done!

If she has dimples, I'll fall into la-la land for a couple of minutes. If not, then usually her overall style and body language will catch my eye.

Her smile makes me melt...

Depending on the situation, sometimes her beautiful smile, her eyes, her breasts, or her butt. Think about it. From a distance, you notice her butt. But closer up her eyes and lips :)

Eyes

I love beautiful eyes. I also like a pretty smile and a nice attitude. 
Glindared's picture

I agree

The eyes would grab my attention, then I'd 'check' everything else out...but what would keep my interest in her, is her personality

Her butt's personality.

The smile and the eyes...but the personality has to be good too!

oh! and I just love necks!! I just want to nibble them!

quorvo's picture

something totally different

The thing I notice first is the voice. Sexy voices make me all giddy and then if she laughs I just go crazy.
Anonymous's picture

Voice..

You beat me to it!! I definitely agree with you guorvo.  I like deep, confident voices and the next thing I pay attention to is personality.

I'm exactly the same. Every girl I've ever liked, it's her voice and then her laugh that first gets me interested.

Eyes, mouth, voice, hands, SOH

- tho I'd swear some kind of unnameable personal energy comes first  (sh** the smoke alarm.. lemee get that..)

: ) 

Pyewacket's picture

I agree about the personal energy thing.

That unnameable...unquantifiable...energetic is what my own energetic notices first...before I can even form a whole thought in my brain! Before I can even notice the color of her eyes and find out her name.

Depends on how close we are

Depends on how close we are when I first see her and from what vantage point (front/rear).

Close up, her overall face, then specifically mouth.  I am drawn to luscious lips. I cannot help but fantasizing about kissing them. Eyes, nose, cheeks.

Hair.

Overall body. Then hips and legs.

From behind, if she's bootylicious I might just follow her to see her move it.  LOL 

Yes, I'm a booty stalker. Heh.

Boobs are in there somewhere, but unless she's showing lots of cleavage, I'd just as soon wait for the unveiling, if you know what I mean! LOL

Shoes?

If it's far away, I look at their feet, I don't know why. But I look at everyone's feet a lot. I have a weird thing with shoes and sneakers. But if I'm face to face or just meeting this person, I look at their face, mostly their eyes and smile (lips).
norma.b's picture

^^ I've done that! Just a few steps

before er 'coming to'..  Like a Bisto kid but with open eyes - same smile tho  : D

 

^ Shoes, good point.  They're a clue (or warning lol) to how things will play..  & ^X8!!

I notice....

I notice the clothes first, then I go to the face. Mainly the eyes and smile.
If I were to tlak to them though then I'd notice the sense of humour.
sandralovi's picture

when i am face to face i notice her lips then her eyes.  if she has her back to me i notice her shape...mmmm you gotta love the hips!

Alana!'s picture

Three things...

Loads of people call me strange for this but the first thing i look at when im interested in someone is their hands. They have to have nice hands which may sound weird but when you think about thats the part of them thats gunna be in contact with you the most

Second thing is the eyes because i think eyes can be really striking, i especially like unique eyes and third is smile.

A nice smile makes me melt. Especially with dimples :]

Anonymous's picture

Smiles...

I really like smiles as well.
Emmy's picture

those are three things i have!

no but um my ex looks at hands too... and it totally makes sense.

i love a good smile and nice eyes to gaze into lol that sounds all ooey gooey and lovey dovey hah :)

 i have dimples ! which i didnt notice until a friend pointed them out 3 years ago... and my eyes are pretty sweet, they can go from glass clear blue, to deep gray depending on my mood and sometimes my clothing, its sooo cool.

mixtape218's picture

welp

i seem to have nice eyes. i met this girl in france and neither of us spoke to eachother a lot (language barrier) and when i pulled away from a hug, we both said at the same time "You have nice eyes" i was like (YES!! elle m'aime) so me, i like eyes
Iriss's picture

i usually lay my eyes firstly on face, then i notice her eyes....cuz through those beautiful eyes, they express what ppl thinking about u and if there affection exist toward u....

brackishtea's picture

Eyes and chest!

I can tell a lot about a lady on how she "shows" her chest....but if I stare too long I forget she has eyes :(

Praise the Pussay!

brackishtea's picture

LOL

Yea it always seems I'm on something!!! I swear I'm sober errrr err ya!

Praise the Pussay!

H.'s picture

This is gonna sound wierd...

but it depends on how butch/femme they are haha.

If it's a really girly girl, then it tends to be the eyes and smile and just general facial features. If it's a more tomboyish girl then (and prepare for a wtf moment) it's the middle of the body, from about midriff to mid-thigh lol. It's the hips-y area ha. I dunno why. I think it's cos that determines how they stand and walk, and if somebody swaggers that section of their body in a certain cocky attitude when they're walking...that can just floor me. Man i'm weird.

style

Sometimes it depends on what she's wearing

A low cut shirt will have me drawn to her collar bone. I think the sexiest collar bones are the ones that jut out a bit. Long slender necks are sexy too.

Short sleeves and shorts I'm drawn to calves and biceps. Everytime I see an athletic girl I get these strange BDSM fetish thoughts, lol. Sorry.

I really like tanned or dark skin smooth. It's so beautiful. And then naturally her face follows haha. Sometimes I catch myself checking out a girl for too long. If I want to stare a little longer I will pop the shades on haha!

But if she really wants to hold my attention, a cute laugh and gorgeous smile will do it with lots of body language. I like when girls are touchy, loosens me up some :)
