Soulful eyes
Women love a man with nice eyes. Soulful eyes are often an unusual or deep colour and make a woman feel as if she is being mesmerised whenever she looks into them. Looking into the eyes of someone you love is one of the most romantic things you can do. When those eyes are particularly beautiful, they have the ability to make a woman swoon!
Large hands
This might sound a little strange, but large hands are a very attractive physical attribute in men. To a woman, large hands symbolise strength and the ability to protect. Even women who are more than capable of looking after themselves like to feel safe and secure. Next time you are out at a bar and you see a woman looking at a man's hands, it's not just to check for a wedding ring!
Height
While it's unfair to say that women aren't attracted to shorter men, most prefer a man who is at the very least a couple of inches taller than her. Just like with large hands, it's all about feeling safe and protected. It's also about fitting snugly underneath his arm, or being able to rest her head on his shoulder while dancing. Wanting a taller man is probably the most common physical attribute a woman seeks when looking for a partner.
Well built physique
Men, before you rush to the gym to tone up, read on! Women mostly prefer their men with a bit of bulk on their bodies. That's not to say men need to look like WWE wrestlers though. In fact, for a lot of women, too much muscle is a turn off. Instead, just being a little bit chunky is a favourable physical attribute in a man.
Women are attracted to many things in men. It is never as simple as having a checklist of things which look good to them. These are just some of the most common physical attributes in men which women find irresistible.
If you are a man reading this and you don't fit into any of those categories, don't be disheartened. While these are all things which women find attractive, they are by no means enough to keep a women interested if there is no substance and depth to the man himself. If the main attraction between a couple is physical, the chances are the relationship won't last. A good balance of physical and mental attraction is needed to maintain a long term partnership.

Interesting what they think women want!
I guess I'm weird. Tall guys feel gigantic to me. I prefer my men shorter; over 5' 10" is a turn off. lol
I totally agree with the height thing. I prefer at least 6 ft tall.
I agree about the height thing, especially if a woman is concious of a man always looking at her assets! I thought large hands were supposed to mean a man had large something else lol :) Good points, and some men just don't realise how important looks are. For me the eyes and the way a person looks at you makes a huge impression - or not.
I agree about the height thing. I always felt weird if a man was shorter than me.
