How big a factor in your Dating equation is visual perception and the visual perceptions of your peers?
How I perceive my Date through my vision is important to me. Insight from friends is helpful when guiding through relationships, though I like to think I know better than most of my friends about most things. Advice I take from others typically comes from older people because I trust them more.

Is this your way of asking me the age old question: Ass or t*tt*es?

Overall appearance relative to socio-psychologically established standards.
I personally prefer arses to asses though I do find donkey's appealing, and I also enjoy pert arses and pert breasts...Whereas tatties is what a Scotsman or woman or other, might refer to when discussing potatoes.
Race and colour proffer exciting opportunities...Quirky features too, but not downright ugly...Fit as in toned and healthy...But as the saying goes, you don't look at the mantelpiece when you're stoking the fire...Whereas from the other side of the room do you really want your pals to see a mingging mantelpiece.
You can also learn from others brilliance.
I've probably asked you this before BK...But have you ever tried not thinking.
Being busy requires constant thought.
And yes Debs, photons at lightspeed tell us something.

Many valuable things can be learned from relationships - even bad ones.

I assume she'll be white, probably with the same eye color as my family because I think green or blue eyes are the coolest, and I want to keep that trait for my children. I think she'll be above-average in attractiveness which means above 5/10. Being above standard is easier now than ever because of the depreciation of health and quality lifestyle, ironic as it is.
I think my friends will think she is attractive too because I look for markers of attractiveness, especially in the face, that demonstrate objective good health--so, attractive by nature. This probably comes from being influenced by the Looksmaxxing community.
One especial quality that my ideal wife would have is an amazing nose. Whenever I have been awestruck by the beauty of a woman, she always has an exceptional nose, at least to my point of view. Take Chloe Grace Moretz for example. She is very beautiful but much more so due to having a top tier nose. For some reason I fixate on that part of the body when gauging a woman's attractiveness. For reference, she is the only person I have had a "celebrity crush" on in high school. Though that didn't last long because I always thought having a celebrity crush was a strange phenomenon

I think relationships are important for development in intellect and self-control and other cylinders of human practice and features
Its not a promise, but a statement of fact. Interpersonal relationships teach us about other people - not just the broad picture, but the granular view. What motivates them, what scares them, their life priorities, etc. Its a completely different (and more accurate) view than what you might get from a distance or through a digital medium.
Even more, interpersonal relationships let us see ourself through another person's eyes - warts and all. It gives us a chance to see what is admirable and to polish what isnt.

Hmmm...I took a look at Chloe and she's OK but wouldn't top my list...Not sure about celebrity crushes, not really my sort of thing.
Been racking my brains and haven't started my list yet...Of course, they would be from the 70's 80's and perhaps 90's.
I always thought that Halle Berry was gorgeous back in the day.
I recognize Halle Berry from John Wick 3.
We have different tastes in women

Right along with everyone else possessing a pulse.
She is still gorgeous at 60:

A, Most.
B. Healthy
C. Beautiful.
You left out women. Most healthy women are beautiful.

If people could only realize that looks is directly related with health. If health is prioritized, good-looking features follow. It seems average person focuses way too much on supplementary items like pills, skincare products, counting calories. Waste of money and shows lack of knowledge. None of those things fix the root cause that the product is designed to alleviate. Why do people submit to the magic, mysterious and alluring traveling salesman with his carriage of potions and cream that is modern Big Pharma?

No judgement from me - to each their own.

I agree with Debby's statement. Health is attractive

Hmmmm...You didn't pay proper attention to my reply.
Health is attractive.
Hmmm...Ill health, good health, reasonable health?
A human organisms health status is difficult to determine and also involves many aspects of physiological function.
Someone that may look fit on the outside may not be fit on the inside...Always look to the parents for indicators of potential health defects.
