turnoffs

[dad]

what makes someone go from fine mama-jama to sweet home alabama?
i'm surprised we don't have this by now but, pokècommunity, what are your biggest turn-offs?

s/o to @spiff for the turnons thread.

 

[Alfieri]

Poor hygiene, nappy hair, tall, a lot of make-up, smoker, rude and short temper to name a few.

 

[Ice1]

People that wear jogging pants in their day to day live. They're great if you're at home or, of course, jogging, but you just look sleazy otherwise. You get a free pass every once in a while, but if I don't like it when people do it regularly.

We also have a trend here where girls do their hair in buns on the top of their head, and it's really ugly. :/
And of course, the good old classic, over use of makeup.

WHY DO MODELS THINK IT'S HOT IT MAKES YOU LOOK LIKE A CRÈME SOUFFLÉ

WHY DO MODELS THINK IT'S HOT IT MAKES YOU LOOK LIKE A CRÈME SOUFFLÉ

But, what if you're a person who likes souffles?

Most of the turnoffs I have of anyone, not just people of the opposite gender, are mainly personality-related. Whenever I see people acting high and mighty, douche-like, cocky, etc., I cannot help but scoff and ignore them entirely. People who are loud and obnoxious are quite possibly the most irritating kinds of individuals and I personally could not handle that kind of character around me. So I try to avoid them as much as possible.

 

[Lumina]

People who can't take a joke. Intolerance and lack of understanding. Over-controlling attitudes or personalities. Being a guy.

Smoking. You smell bad and you need to stay away from me. Sorry to anyone that smokes but I really get turned off by it. It isn't cool or sexy.

 

[Melody]

Doesn't matter how hot I am to trot for someone; a sure way to turn me off is to be absolutely stupid somehow.

Not like normal day-to-day "Oh ahaha derp, forgot to do this" stupid, that's forgivable and sometimes even cute if it's not often. I'm talking about saying or doing something that's absolutely, gob-smackingly, stupid and absent of any evidence of effort at any sort of appreciable intelligence.

If someone is being absolutely unintelligent or showing a complete lack of effort to use their minds it usually frustrates me. Now I'm generally pretty forgiving and I do take into account who a person is before setting expectations about what I expect them to just generally know, but I do have a limit.

How about bad eyebrows amirite

But the worst turnoff for me are people who aren't passionate. If you like something, I want to listen to you talk about how much you love it and how it means everything to you and how it defines you. If you can't do that I just don't know what you bring to the table man.

Smoking. You smell bad and you need to stay away from me. Sorry to anyone that smokes but I really get turned off by it. It isn't cool or sexy.

I agree so much. Mainly because I am allergic to the smoke and I can't be near it, but the smell is bad too and idk I couldn't be with someone who smokes. I don't have anything against it...it just is the number one turnoff haha.

 

[Hannah]

• No sense of humor
• Overly confident
• Smoker (You can smoke, just not around me!)
• No hygiene, yuck
• Liar
• Doesn't take things seriously
• Intolerant
• Bad fashion sense (sorry not sorry)
• Ignorant

Just ughh

 

[Percy]

People who swore out loud every freaking time.

 

[Shining Raichu]

Excessive muscle is a huge turn off for me. I like my guys thin and frail.

 

[Gabri]

Piercings (of ALL kinds, except earrings) and tattoos.
Lack of hygiene and ignorance as well.

 

[Circuit]

I dislike people who can't challenge me intellectually. But at the same time, I dislike people who are clearly much smarter than me and rub it in my face, intentionally or not. I also dislike people with no depth. You can be on my level intellectually, but if you have no personality beyond that, just go away. I like interesting people.

Physically, unclean people turn me off. Make-Up turns me off too. In small quantities it's ok, but slapped on like a clown's mask is definitely not ok (not to mention I hate clowns >_<). I also dislike body hair. The hair on your head is fine. Elsewhere not so much, get rid of it. Also, loud people turn me off. I prefer quieter people, who can be outgoing, just not like... Super-in-your-face outgoing.

 

[Pinkie-Dawn]

Smoking tobacco, face piercing, lack of knowledge/ignorance, and rudeness.

 

[Hikamaru]

My major turnoffs in a person are smoking (it smells so baaaaaaaad) and someone who doesn't have any form of humor, because I like having a laugh and when one doesn't find it funny it upsets me.

Also, I recently had a turnoff found in people who are so short-tempered and abusive, especially with all the family drama I've been suffering where my own brother bullies me and my mother instantly snaps into anger when something doesn't go her way.

 

[Nakala Pri]

CAUTION! IF YOU MEET ANY/ALL OF THESE... LISTINGS, THEN OMG YOU SUCKER

1. Ur-ger-LEE. Like HELLO do you know your hair looks like someone threw up on it and then coughed flem on it and it stayed that way?!

2. Too much MAKE-UP!! Seriously maybe you do it because your real face is so butt ugly you throw up whenever you look in the mirror.

3. Modesty. EW

4. Serious-o's. If life wanted you to be serious, they wouldn't have made death so hilarious and whimsical.

5. Swear-o's. Say it, don't spray it!

6. Generally boring people. Like SHUT UP ALREADY

7. Insecure people. Either you suck or you're awesome. If you suck then DEAL WITH IT and quit whining.

8. Short people. Sorry, it's a sad fact of life. Short people are like onion salads. Not even attractive from afar.

9. People who can't take a flippin' joke. '... and then the chicken said to the toucan 'OH YEAH? WELL YOOOOOU'VE GOT A BIG MOUTH' "THAT IS SO INSENSITIVE TO THE TOUCAN LIKE OMG YOU ********************************************************"

10. Plain boring dry piece's of toast that think solid colours are IN.

YEAHYEAHYEAH

I'd think that bad attitude is always a given, so other than that:

Smoking (smell makes me ill..)
Bad teeth
Lack of ambition/ passion
Poor hygiene/ lack of grooming
"Pubescent"-like moustaches
Baldness
Narcissism
Dirty fingernails (exceptions= after gardening/ rock climbing/ etc)

 

[Entermaid]

Short
Controlling
No ambition
Extroverted
Aggressive/Hypermasculine
Feminine Appearance
Bald
Soft Facial Features
Whatever the opposite of wholesome is.
Rude to waitstaff.
Loud and obnoxious.
Easily offended/angered or complain about little things.
Lacking passion in life.
Totally self-absorbed.

Basically I like the sweet and reserved types that are ruggedly handsome.
