I'm drawn to people who have a happy energy about them, because it uplifts me.
That said, I prefer people who are a little more reserved and quiet. Not necessarily in terms of emotion, they can show emotion, but I'm not keen on people who are always loud and attracting attention to themselves. As catty and sassy as I can get on here, that's not my T at all in real life. In reality I'm very collected and I don't like to bitch and moan and bring people down, or walk into the room giving screaming drunken cheering and obnoxiousness.
If a person is confident, I prefer it to be a quiet self-aware confidence, not a forced performance of confidence. I also like people who are quite physically active, adventurous and not lazy, that's a quality I admire.
I don't just see looks as "icing on the cake" to be honest, and people can call that "shallow" if they want, it's how I feel. I personally aspire to take pretty good care of my health and my looks in life, and I value the same in a potential partner, so I would not date a slob. I'm not unrealistic in my expectations about looks, you don't have to be a model with a gym body because I'm not myself, but I do like you to at least be healthy and take care of yourself. I think that ties into my attraction to "active" people though.

"Ironically like the nativist far-Right, which despises multiculturalism, but benefits from its ideas of difference to scapegoat the other and to promote its own white identity politics; these postmodernists, leftists, feminists and liberals also use multiculturalism, to side with the oppressor, by demanding respect and tolerance for oppression characterised as 'difference', no matter how intolerable." - Maryam Namazie
