Ok, how bout the cowboys!

[RebelCritter]

What do the cowboys think is the "ideal woman" ? I know I am going to regret this.... :help:

 

[backhoeboogie]

Wash and wear (i.e. NOT high maintenance).

Happy and supportive.

Mature enough to know what she wants out of life. Younger women have never been attractive to me. I've been married for 28 years now. But even when I was young, I dated women older than I.

I will probably regret replying to the post that you will probably regret.
How does that joke go--about the guy trying to choose between three women so he puts them all to a test. They all complete the test differently, but all are successful in their own way--so the guy marries the gal with the biggest...ah you know. :dunce:

John you are "probably" more right than you have ever been before.


If it takes 3 coats of paint to make a truck look like an easter egg, it probably doesn't have a lot of use in the pasture where you need it.

The stock answer is a woman who is blind and deaf, built like a brick s**t house, and owns a liquor store.

In reality it is someone who is low maintenance. Is happy with life. Someone who sees the glass as half full. A woman who is reasonably fit and active, and able to do things. I don't care about age. I have dated both older and younger women and age is an attitude. And maturity does not necessarily come with age.

Being attractive is a plus but there are other things that are as appealing. Since of humor, loyalty, trustworthy, I could go on but those are traits for both men and women. Most important is being friend and confident. Someone who shares and with whom you can share your life and dreams. Not just someone to love but to really like.

That was good....

My 2 cents worth? A woman that does not nag and b-i-itch all the time. Life is hard enough during the day, I sure don't want to hear it at night.

Fred, those are some of the qualities one would look for in a good dog. But it helps to have those things in a partner.

That goes both ways, my friend!! That is why bars do such a good business. Lights are low for a reason.

Lammie my dog isn't very obediant, can't catch her when I want to tie her up, don't have that problem with the wife.(just kidding) :tiphat:

Good follow-up question there.

Attractive looks are important to me, but by far not the most important. Confidence is key! They have to be in tune with what they want in life.

They need not be interested in all the same things I am, just supportive of my interests.

They don't have to be June Cleaver in the house, just not a slob.

They don't have to be a fitness guru, just not lazy and unkempt. I do have an appreciation for a well put together female human anatomy, but don't like anything to be fake or grossly out of proportion to the whole of the frame.

They have to appreciate all the beauty life has to offer.

Negativity is a huge turn-off!

Though they don't need to be interested in the same things I am, I guess I do require a love of and appreciation for animals. But not in some whacko, overboard, vegetarian, PETA kind of way.

In the same boat. I don't even need to think which one I'd be choosing between wifey and farm. Farm and cows are #1. :cowboy:
