Online Thread Has Folks Pointing Out Simple Things That Can Make People Look More Attractive, And Here Are 30 Of The Best Ones
Nowadays our society is incredibly concentrated on the mental picture that we have of ourselves, both external and internal. Yet, the world has turned into an expensive catwalk, where physical appeal has pulled that inner beauty aside back into the dark attic. We’re quick to judge one another based on the way we look and oftentimes we tend to forget that simplicity is the most beautiful thing.

The post received 41,700 upvotes, 12,600 comments and over 100 awards, where users shared their opinions about what simple things attract them in their potential partner.

A bald head is much more attractive than a huge receding hairline. Sometimes it's better to literally cut your losses.
#5
Have good manners. Manners are free and in unlimited supply. Manners is a super sexy trait.
Chloe *Leah* Pheonix 4 years ago
I said it before, I dont want to be sexy or hot. I want to be a smol bean in an oversized hoodie
#6
Get vaccinated.
#8
Shower, and cut your fingernails.
#9
Brush your teeth. Twice a day. Floss, too. Check in with your dentist once in a while. Clean healthy teeth are fantastic.
#10
Posture
#11
Calm and confident. Nothing is hotter than being self assured.
#12
Nothing is sexier than asking questions with the intent of listening, not waiting for your turn to speak.

I don't know about it being sexy, per se, but I do feel it's a real need - people want to feel like they are really being heard.
#13
Don't be an a@#$hole, and be respectful of other people.
#14
Stop self-deprecating yourself.
#15
Talking about your passion.
#16
Men who are good with kids. Instantly more attractive to me.
#17
Keep your appearance neat. I used to work retail and I noticed that people treated me WAY better when my hair was cut and my beard was trimmed, which was like 10% of the time because I worked two jobs and my hair grows so fast I couldn't keep up with it. So when I cleaned myself up, I really noticed the change in how people treated me.
#18
Take an interest in the world. Read the news. Watch new series and movies. Try new things.
You have to have something to talk to people about. Something interesting. You can't just talk to them about yourself and your favourite hobby or interest for hours on end.
#19
Being "natural". Gosh, nothing annoys me more than people who completely change the way they behave and try to one-up everyone as soon as they feel or fear the smallest amount of competition.

All the clowns play charades to seem to be someone they are not. That's why watching people go by is so much fun; it's a constant flow of delusional people who think that they are the epitome of fashion and beauty.

Cooking. I think, if you are looking for a way to impress a girl, then this is a very good idea.
Pezor Zass 4 years ago
i firmly took this advice when i was in university. threw a dinner party for my friends (because they were my friends, not just because i was trying to impress the women), served a chocolate cheesecake for dessert, got met with a chorus of "oh wow, you would be dangerous to date!" well, hmm, time for a rethink ;)
#21
A decent haircut. I got a different cut a couple months ago and the first comment I got was from a lovely Korean gal at the local convenience store and she said, “you look more handsome since the last time I saw you!”. It’s given me a bit more confidence.

What people consider nice hair is highly subjective, so I can't get fully on board with this one. I've seen many people call black people who wear their hair in their natural texture, in braids, or in dreadlocks "ghetto" and "unkempt," and those people can go ahead and kick rocks. Don't give a hoot what they think.
#22
Have a direction in life. Even if it seems silly to some people, a person making strides toward a goal is hot.
WilvanderHeijden 4 years ago
Debatable, it can quickly change to a person being an overachiever with little to no respect for other people.
#24
Sleep.
#26
Live in your own skin, keep yourself clean, and don't be a d$%k. Everything else is just extra frosting on the cake.
#27
Believe that you look attractive. If you act like it, people will believe it alongside you. Humans act by mimicking others. If you can’t get yourself to believe your attractive, do what you need to do so you can believe it.

I think I'm fine, but I'm also very aware that beauty is in the eye of the beholder.
#28
Good pants. You'd be surprised how much the rest of your outfit is irrelevant if you've got a good pair of pants on.
#29
Learn a skill. Find a hobby you love and learn to be really good at it. Especially if it's something you can share or enrich other people's lives with. Like cooking, playing an instrument, gardening, woodworking, knitting, drawing, etc.

I think it’s more important to have the passion for something than to have to be “really good” at something. Hobbies and passion should be enjoyable and not necessarily a competition.
#31
I guess being happy. I am getting the most compliments when I am genuinely happy.
#34
When talking to someone, modulate your voice (don’t scream at their face or mutter) and look into their eyes. Knowing how to keep someone’s attention is attractive as hell.
#35
Looking people in the eyes when talking.
Natalie Kelsey 4 years ago
Neurodivergent people have a very hard time doing this. It's just as good if it's clear someone's listening to you even if they're uncomfortable with eye contact. There's other ways to show you're paying attention
#36
Community activism. Nothing more attractive than those who actively do things to improve the community!
WilvanderHeijden 4 years ago
I hate those people because they don't want to improve the community, they want the power to tell you what to do. Keep your frontyard tidy, don't play music after 10 pm, don't wash your car on Sunday, for the good of the community you should be part of our What'sapp group, join our "Share your private life with your neighbors" group.
#38
Honesty, and I know it sounds cheesy but if people just say what they think, whether its bad or not, eventually a certain someone will fall for them.
#40
Tell a joke. Or kill spiders. Not sure which is more effective.
Pezor Zass 4 years ago
there's no reason to kill spiders. spiders are in your house because you have insects in your house. if you kill the spiders, you will have more insects.

I dont like it when the ends of these say "it will make you hot" isnt someone being "hot" in someone's eyes mean good looking? It isnt based off just etiquette. Society likes to filter out everyone with slight imperfections in the way they look.
Veronica Sjöberg 4 years ago
Yeah. In my opinion hot and attractive are two different things. Someone can be really good looking (i guess "hot") but still not be attractive. In the same way you can be attractive even if you don't really "have the looks".

Put the phone down. Especially if you're taking a picture of yourself.
