    Re: Biggest Turn Offs?

    Pet-hoarding.

    Guns.

    Being able to drink me under the table.

    Having an ex-boyfriend who was really into porn (which is code for: I'm weird about sex).

    Breaking my zone of comfort 2 minutes after meeting.

    Piety.

    Women who have kids. When the girl gets the wild notion that me agreeing to a second date automatically means I must be junior's new daddy, that's where I draw the line, and then I'm quickly out the door. So I make it easier and avoid that saga altogether now.

    Wearing too much perfume or cologne

    hair in the sink (and it's not mine)

    peas

    tatoos and body piercing. Esepcially on women. Do you realize what you're gonna look like in 40 years? A wrinkly grandma with a barb-wire ring tatooed around your forearms and ankles. Ya got no teeth, but that tongue piercing really complements the ensemble!

    Leg warmers. Okay, that one goes back to high school, but I've noticed they're coming back...

    Smoking, tattoos, heavy drinking- these tend to come in packages.

    Mulletts, which also tend to come with the above.

    Exposed midriffs.

    <Shudder>Visible thongs.</Shudder>

    French manicures.

    Ankle bracelets.

    Helplessness.

    Blue/Green/Insert any "punk" hair color here.

    Everything Goth.

    Light beer drinkers.

    Mary Higgins Clark readers.

    That about covers it.

    Too much makeup.

    women who say the "F" word. I've said it once or twice before in my life, and it doesn't bother me when guys say it, but for some reason I find it very unattractive. Not morally wrong, just unattractive.

    I'm with those who said tattoos and smoking. My own spin:

    Extreme Extroversion (verbosity)

    Fake Naivete (pretending to be stupid)

    Facial Piercings.

    Smoking and Drinking.

    Too much makeup and perfume.

    No sense of humor.(Someone who is serious I dont mind, just as long as they arent hateful.)

    Goth is somewhat of a turnoff.

    I agree with MWM on language as well. Also including other profanities.

    From someone who smokes, drinks, and swears... DAMN! (Whilst taking another drag off a Marlboro Light, waiting for my Jack Daniels to melt the ice a bit, of course.)

    I'm really creeped out by teetotalers too.

    Life without vice is life half-lived. It's the grand denial that, in the end, you're nothing but a beast at center, a beast that craves.

    Plus it beats killing people or supporting causes that kill people.

    There is no such thing that can be classified as wrong, especially if it's something you do.

    Re: Biggest Turn Offs?

    It's a good thing I'm not a girl trying to pick up a Redszone man; I'd be barred at the door.

    I wouldn't look twice at a dame who doesn't drink or smoke or curse, and she'd better have more favorite books than television shows.

    There was a hysterical skit on SNL where a product was adverstised that was solely intended to remove "bad lower back tatoos" for women...

    As for my major turn offs:

    1) Any women that is devoid of self-esteem. You know the type..."I'm too fat, blah blah blah...."

    2) Wild mood swings

    3) Lack of independence
