Something that's important to me about profiles, in terms of appearance, is that I'm imagining that the gentleman is trying to post a photo in which he looks his BEST. He's thinking that a woman may be reading his profile and looking at his picture and trying to make a decision on whether to contact him or not. So when I see a picture where the guy is not looking so hot, or where the picture is not flattering, I begin to wonder - Is that the best he's got? It can only go downhill from here, right? If the guy is working his style, got his best foot forward, grooming, clothing, and setting is on point, and looking to make a good impression, that's what I'm looking for. Personally I prefer the skinny kind with dark hair and big noses, but a well-groomed, big blond would have just as much of a chance with me - now that I've gotten past the outside features, it's time to check his profile more thoroughly. This applies to the ladies, too. Even when you're not *trying*, you still need to look your best. Example: I'm now going out, just to the grocery store. I have on overalls with a decent hoodie underneath. Color-coordinated eyeglasses. Lip gloss and earrings. A nice day coat, not a fugly parka, and a cute purse. Now, the chances of meeting a man who wants to dominate and discipline me at the grocery store are fairly low. But still, if I did meet one, he would know that I liked myself and respected myself enough to dress decently for the public as a whole.
