Shilpi Madan gives you a checklist on what men DON'T want to see on women...
As far as we're concerned, inner beauty is still the strongest pre-requisite. But just like you have a list of things that you would never want to see on men (make-up, pot-bellies, etc), men have their own list. Things that make them squirm. Maybe sloppy and unshaven works for him on him, but it might not work for him on you. The question is, do you care? It's not like he'll suddenly start loving you less just 'cause you've sprouted a few facial hair. But he obviously doesn't like it. And he's entitled to his opinion, which is precisely what we asked for in this piece. Here's what a few guys said...
Facial Hair
"I dislike facial hair on women, it looks so un-feminine," says ace lensman Dabboo Ratnani. "It's in-your-face and looks unclean. My only recourse is to clean up the close-up shots with Photoshop." But what does he do in real life? "Look the other way."
If you care: Pluck 'em off. Bushy eyebrows? Tweeze, bleach, wax, singe - do whatever it takes to get rid of furry facial growth. If you don't care, tell him to go soak his head.
Tattoos And Pierced Body Parts
"I dislike tattoos and body piercing of any kind on my woman," says actor Parveen Dabas. "They just put me off completely."
If you care: Don't get one. Simple. Body art isn't everyone's fetish anyway. And some guys cringe at the sight of pierced body parts. Well, each one to his own and her own!
Unkempt Hands And Feet
"A woman's hands must feel soft to the touch. I dislike scaly, rough, spotted, uncared-for female hands," says writer Anil Thakraney. "It doesn't matter if you are short or fat but it is awful if you cannot take care of the basics - your hands and feet." Point taken.
If you care: Go in for regular manicures and pedicures. Chipped nail polish, grubby toe talons, chewed fingernails, cracked heels... it's shocking how most men and women will not notice a new outfit but will zero in on these imperfections.
III-Fitting Bras
"Shapeless breasts don't compliment a woman. If a woman cannot take care of this most important aspect, can she manage anything?" asks media-man Kinzal Vadera.
If you care: Identify the problem. Okay, so you're virtually flat chested. Or maybe you have a bigger problem: You could give Dolly Parton a run for her money. But are you wearing the right sized bra? Swell fitting cups with properly hooked on straps give you a new level of confidence.
