Please leave the "I only care about personality" answers at the door, you're lying, everyone knows you're lying, and you might have fooled yourself, but the rest of us can see right through it.

I'll start:

Females: Small bust, large waist, Big ass
Guys: Bird Chest, Twink-ish

Apparently I appreciate women who are slim but curvy where it matters. I say apparently because this isn't always reflected in women I fall for but it's what I look for in erotica, so... also, luscious lips. Mmmm.

There are types I like to look at and types I like to imagine myself with. I like looking at jaw-dropping, boner-inducing women, but I could never do a relationship with someone who devotes that much time and effort into their appearance, because I'm a slob (and roguishly handsome to boot -- look me up). Type-wise, well, my month-long diplomacyish trip to Japan felt like a non-stop hottie parade, so let's isolate some things. Dark hair, yes. Short -- I guess, but I've liked tall women too, so I don't think that's a factor so much as the proportions, which in Tokyo were spot-on. Girl doesn't need big cans or a sweet ass, although that helps sometimes.... It's mostly the face for me. Gotta have a sharp-looking face, like, maybe you don't ever go out and accomplish millions of dollars of industrial value, but you look like you COULD, like you're smart and motivated. A lot of maturing Japanese women (talking 20s and 30s) have that sort of look. That, I think, is the thing that I'm going for.... and the body is nice, but it's the face, really. And in the face, perfection is a turn-off. Like, you shouldn't look like you put too much into your looks -- you should look like you've got better things to do than to botox and pluck eyebrows and treat your skin and shit. I dunno. I guess it's not super-common, and if it's not natural it probably takes just as much work, and therefore defeats the whole ethos of the criteria, but my dick isn't smart enough to know better.

Female preferred.

Pale and dark hair is like a generic goodie.

Medium length hair is best.

Vaguely-goth/punk/emo look is cool.

Tattoos and piercings are meh.

Intellectual ftw.

But honestly it really doesn't matter too much. If you were pretty much not fat and your tits don't look like flapjacks nailed to a wall, you could talk me into it.

EDIT: Specific body type? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Curvy? Nice hips? Idk.

I prefer the ladies, I'm not partial to hair colour, but short hair styles drive me crazy (in a good way!), a warm face with pleasant features, good teeth, light coloured eyes, and more on the slender/ active body type.

big booty bitches

I honestly don't know that much.
I've never really bothered looking at it as "I am attracted to girls with _____, and I am attracted to girls that have _____".
But more "I find this girl attractive".

Edit: There is one bit I remembered afterwards.
Long hair, that's a preference.

Men: Eyes, broad chest, toned legs. Bony laps are no fun to sit in. Don't be small. (Length is only part of that.) Accents are great, except for most Texas/Southern accents. Don't make me feel like a workout warrior because you're out of shape, even if you're not a gym rat.

Women: Bust balance; don't make me feel like you might roll over and smother me in my sleep, but make it fun to shop for sexy bras to have you model in. Hair, not a specific type, but well maintained. Ditto skin, color doesn't matter, but feel amazing to touch please. Eyes and smile are huge. Be in shape enough to dance with me all night.

Nice ass? Huge plus for both. Both need to smell good, I cannot overstate the importance of that. Nothing smells better than a freshly showered individual.

None of this ranks as high as sense of humor, charm, and intellect. (And not always in that order.) Hate 'meat heads', and hate loud girls always looking for a spotlight.

I like my short hair girls.

I prefer my women brunette, with nice teeth and a sexy smile.. A cute laugh that isn't obnoxious..

Eh, I don't really know guys, I have weird taste in women, like, I can find one girl attractive and then my friends would be like "ew dude wtf".

I would prefer my women to be slim, but they don't have to have a toned body or whatever, I'm not that fussy.

But I do find intelligence sexy, I don't know why but it gets me turned on like something not normal. You can't fuck intelligence, but if I could I would. Right through that diploma.

Also, a sick sense of humor like my friends and I.

Toellner. ;)

Men: Muscles, please. Strong legs. Hair-length doesn't matter. Large hands. An amazing butt. I'm partial to the nose, eyes, and lips. Eyebrows. A man's eyebrows... omg. Body hair, but not an exaggerated amount. Dark hair. Light eyes. Tall. I just described Jero. Don't tell him that I said he has an amazing butt. He won't let me smack it enough as it is. Great sense of humor. A temper when it matters. Intelligence. Sarcasm. Honesty. Creativity. Gorgeous smile.

I can keep going for days.

I'm going to sound super fake when I say I really struggle deciding on a physical type. Sure when looking at celebrities or people I don't know I favor curvy women, I generally hold the bar of fitness (as in sportswise) fairly low beneath myself, although if you can't dance crazily with me for hours, or 'go' crazy with me for an extended time, that would probably be an issue.

That said, when it comes to actual attraction, to the people I've met or know and find the most attractive out there, it's all about the person. Even if lets say, I generally prefer green eyes, but a girl has brown eyes, but she's really endeared herself to me and has a super-attractive personality, than those eyes will become my favorite in the world. To be more crass, a girl's figure can be more petite than my generic ideal, but become my ideal, simply because she's wow'd me with who she is. It's this reason I tend to really flirt with people only after I get to know them, unless I'm feeling a bit risky, because so much of that attraction is in who they are, even when I'm trying to be an objectifying pig. Maybe waiting often gets me friendzoned, but then I've made a cool friend anyway, so it's not exactly the huge loss the internet makes it out to be.

I think that's very sweet, Zacharius and I don't think it sounds fake. Attraction to an entire person, their physical as well as their personality is what most people will think about. But I think what Turt wants is just the most base, superficial attraction, what catches our eye about a person's physical form. We don't know who they are or what they're like but that certain body type or part commands our saliva glands to turn on.

For myself, I like beefy men. Not gym rats, I don't really dig the body builder type but I like natural muscle. Muscle built from hard work and play, especially those with a nice layer of chub on the outside. I love men with nice body hair, not Sasquatch and sure as hell not waxed. I prefer lighter skin with dark hair and colored eyes, but brown eyes are good too (since my husband has those). Hair length doesn't matter as long as it looks good on him and I'm partial to a good facial hair, especially nice beards.

For specifics I have a thing for men's forearms, at least some hard muscle tone with nice hair on it. Unnf. Legs too, like soccer or rugby player legs. I could go on but I'd better stop.

For women, a pretty face is probably the biggest seller but I'm not really sexually attracted to other females.

Her lips up top should look like her lips down bottom.

I just had the most disgusting and awkward mental image... ever.

I had a comment involving Arby's but I'll refrain.

Oh, my God.

I'm sorry. I naturally have a filthy sense of humor and I try to hold that in check here on the boards.

Oh my gosh.
