Starting with physical attributes, since that is what gets most guys attention to begin with:
1) Curves - A woman without curves will get little attention from me. I do not like the stereo-typical Hollywood or model look. It concerns me that a lot of women think that men want super-skinny girls. Not only does that screw with their self-esteem, but it also reduces the number of attractive curvy women.
2) Ass - Unfortunately I have never been able to put into words what makes a great ass. It is just one of those things that you know what you see it. Definitely has to have some shape (I guess that goes back to #1).
3) Dark skin - I like a dark skinned girl. The exception to this are goth girls (see #4)
4) Alternative Looks - I like a girl who does not look like every other girl on the street. This includes girls with unnaturally colored hair (pink, blue, green,etc), tattoos, piercings, spiked dog collars, etc.
5) All real - I prefer a girl who is comfortable with her natural beauty. Aside from plastic surgery, botox, etc I also am not a big fan of dyedd hair (with the exceptions listed above) or even make-up (I can tolerate make-up as long as it is used for dressing up and not a requirement for going into public or seeing others).
Once a girl has my attention I look for the following traits:
1) Intelligence - She doesn't have to have a PHD or be a brain surgeon, but I do like a girl who can carry on an intelligent conversation, debate politics and discuss things like history, science, literature, etc.
2) Sense of humor - Everyone has some sense of humor. Not a lot of people have the type of sense of humor that I have. It is important to me to find someone who understands and shares my sense of humor.
3) Knows who she is - I like a girl who knows who she is, and is ok with that. I very much dislike a woman who cares what others think about her, and makes changes in order to fit what others think she should be.
4) Honesty - Honesty is one of the most important building blocks of a successful relationship, so it is hard for me to be truly attracted to anyone who is not honest.
5) Open and accepting - I like a woman who is open-minded and accepting of other opinions, lifestyles, etc. It is also important to me for a woman to be open to trying new things, and not be stifled by what is considered "normal" or "acceptable" in our society. This includes both sexual and non-sexual things.
I do have to add the disclaimer that these are attributes I look for in a woman for a relationship. If I were simply looking for a hot girl for a one-night stand my criteria would be much different.
