However, it's not all about looks and wealth. Research shows that humor and kindness are also characteristics which women find attractive in a man. Clear skin and masculine features are often cited as two physical characteristics which women find desirable in men.
When he can't laugh at himself. A sense of humor is one of the most attractive things a guy can have and it literally has nothing to do with looks. So when a guy can't trip over himself while you're walking and laugh about it, or just takes himself too seriously in general, it's really a put-off.

One of the main qualities a woman wants in a man is honesty and reliability. She would want someone who can support her, be there for her and who means what he says. A dishonest and unreliable man will keep disappointing his partner and show that they don't value the relationship at all.
Physical Attraction
Girls look for guys who are cute and good looking, but it's a personal taste as to what matters the most. Girls are much more interested in a warm smile and nice eyes (these may be what a girl looks for in a guy physically), but it's what's on the inside that counts.

Nevertheless, Lean Pockets do claim, at least by name alone, to be somewhat easy on the waistline. Which is a good thing, because, according to a new trending study, heterosexual women may be more attracted to men who are thin. Not surprisingly, 9 out of 10 belts agree.
Muscularity is sexy.
In a separate study, women reported that their short-term sexual partners were more muscular than their other partners. The researchers suggest women have fewer requirements for muscular men.
