I am totally superficial about facial hair. I might like a guy, I might fancie a guy but if he suddenly turns up with facial hair it is a total turn off for me. There have been only two people who I have met who actually looked good looking with facial hair but even then they were better off without it. Case in point with Colin Firth in Pride and Prejudice he is very good looking but would be so much better off without the sideburns. Some stubble, is sexy but only five o'clock shadow or just woken up and haven't shaved yet. Full on mustaches and beards are for me a total no go area. This is shallow of me, there are lots of really nice people with facial hair but for me there is just something about it that is a total turn off.
I have read various debates whether the physical appearance of a Dom actually matters, whether or not it is the command they project and respect they inspire that does for the trick. I don't know, I haven't met a Dom as far as I know but I do know one thing, that if I do meet a Dom, he won't have facial hair.
I do apologise to all those out there sporting hair on your faces but until you shave it off, you just don't do it for me! Not sure whether Doms would have this or not but another turn off for me just generally is a damp limp handshake, look me in the eye and give a firm controlled handshake and my estimation of you will immediately go up. Don't just hold it either as that is just so awkward and feels as if you just can't make the effort, so why should I make the effort to like you.
So facial hair and damp limp handshakes are the two main things that make me go all superficial I just can't seem to get over them!

I don't mind well-trimmed beard and/or mustache. But I'll pass on the long or crazy side-burns.
ReplyDeleteYea, a limp handshake from a man or woman is disgusting. Pretty much sums up the person--lazy, won't put forth a good-effort, probably untrustworthy, too.
I'm not that concerned with the appearance of a Dom as long as he is clean, well-kept, good hygiene...things along those lines. I look at them differently than I would someone I size up for dating potential.
My ex-Dom probably wouldn't turned my head on the street (not tall, not my body type, not an active sort) but he was decent Dom-material for sure. He just wasn't the Dom for me; we've different level of D/s needs. I find him attractive in ways different than had I been seeking a lover.
Good post O.
I am with you on the beards and moustaches thing - a total turn off for me. Wonder though if perhaps my view was warped by my ex-husband having a moustache lol!
ReplyDelete@HEDONE - I don't think looks matter as much as personality, sense of humour etc. but facial hair is my one downfall over how someone looks! So I agree with you, thanks.
ReplyDelete@shape shifter - That might well be a reason! Totaly valid one.
