Hmm.. I saw a question like this on the MEN ONLY forum about women so I wondered the same for us. What kind of men turn you off?
I'll start:
Loud, obnoxious men
Men who cheat
Those who don't care about their appearance. You don't have to be an Adonis, but at least care!
Extremely overweight. I am no twig, but if you are obese, you don't care. If you have an eating problem, address it. I would like someone I could be healthy with.
Arrogance
Vulgar language
Narcissistic
Superficial
Men who chase much younger women
Those who claim to be Christian but don't walk the walk
Excessive drinkers
Smokers
Judgemental
I don't mind men who are divorced but the reason you are does matter to me.
I don't mind men with children who were born within marriage. Out of wedlock? That depends.....
That is a start.... Guess I am kind of picky.

I can't draw any physical lines because even something like facial hair, which I really don't like, can actually work for some guys. The one single thing I'd have to say just leaves me unimpressed is a braggy guy - the kind who talk about what they have and how much they make and feel the need to puff themselves up. If it wasn't so annoying, it would be sad. My dd is going into 4th grade and actually has a little boy in her class that embodies exactly what I'm talking about (his dad's the same way) . . . I can't stand it!!!

arrogant self-centered men.
men who are skinny. theres something about a skinny guy that makes me want to run in the other direction while pulling my hair out.
no imagination or creativity in any areas.
zero interest in staying healthy.
like someone else said, men who claim to be christians but dont walk the walk.

Looks like most of us don't like arrogance and false bravado.
Smokers can be friends but when I was dating, smoking was a deal breaker.
perhaps those guys who keep starting the "why do gals like the bad guy" threads should be directed to this thread instead.

Smokers
Potty-mouths
Un-groomed - don't have to be a pretty boy, JUST SHOWER AND SHAVE!
Men who don't know their way around a car engine (my dad always took care of my car for me, so I guess he set a precedence)
Lazy
Heavy drinkers - I hate the smell of beer
Work-alcoholics

Lack of couth. He doesn't have to be debonair, merely understand that there is a time and place for everything.
Burping loudly and laughing hysterically about it is not appropriate at my grandmothers funeral. You are more than welcome to do that when you and the guys watch sports together.

Types of men I don't like:
Dirty. And I don't mean I've-been-working dirty, I mean I-don't-know-how-to-use-soap dirt.
Those who use foul language, most especially taking the Lord's name in vain.
Dishonest.
Concerned with worldly things and status more than righteous things.
Prejudice, even that expressed through 'humor'.
Anyone who wants to watch TV all day, lol, and not get out and do things.
Men who don't like children.

amen to that one! i am standing and applauding this.
I am 37 and ended a relationship last year with a man like this. He was a year older than me but if at any time a twenty something would give him the time of day, I would get put to the back burner until they were done using him for what they could get. A man who chases younger women, to me, lacks something that they feel the need for that ego boost. I despise this in men.
My exhusband also had an affair with a younger woman and ended her marriage and ours with it. (and it didn't even last) . Nope no respect for men like that. Makes me feel old at my age because a lot of them men my age want a 25 year old. It sucks.

How low would I go? Probably early 30's. Although I married a man 4 years younger than me and the difference in maturity levels and priorities I noticed after being married a bit, was tremendous. But, the man I dated was a year older than me, and his maturity was pretty pathetic as well.
I would have no desire for a 20 something, would not specifically look for a 20 something, to date. If one happened to come along that was what I was looking for, I probably would not let age deter me, but then again, I am pretty sure a 21 year old would not have what I was looking for. I feel that women look for security and maturity in a man, stability, whereas men (not all men mind you but the ones I have come across) are more interested in the ego stroking of what they have on their arm. And if she is a 20 something, well, isn't he just "the man" or so they think.
Just my personal experience thus far.
I would not go out looking for a much younger man, whereas I feel that a lot of men my age do do that.

Everything Ta_mosquito said, especially Know- it-alls and materialistic men.
quote:
ORIGINAL: ta_mosquito
Know-it-alls
Men who cannot admit when they're wrong
Men who cannot apologize
Arrogant
Smokers
Alcohol abusers
Porn users
Potty mouths (the occasional slip is understandable; when it's frequent, it's a turn off)
Neanderthals (He-men, men who put down women)
Irresponsible
Lazy, who do nothing to provide
The ones who are always down and out (jobless, homeless, friendless, etc.) and blame everyone/everything but themselves for their situation, expecting others to come and rectify the situation
Ones that are afraid of their own shadow; too afraid to take risks or make any moves for fear of what might happen (Proverbs 22:13)
And what the other ladies said
