"I think I just like women to be feminine. Don't get me wrong: I like a woman to have a strong character and know what she wants. But too many women confuse this with being aggressive." -- James, Edmonton, AB

 

"I get very turned off when women do overtly un-ladylike things, like smoking cigarettes or eating in the street or wearing pants on a first date. The women in my family are very ladylike, so I guess it's just the way I was brought up." -- Roger, Surrey, B.C.

 

"If a girl is as shy as I am, it puts me at ease and I can be myself. I like that." -- Jon Langtree, Halifax, NS

 

"Skirts are all kinds of awesome." -- Alex, Nanaimo, B.C.

 

"I just adore it when a woman waits for me to actually do things like open her door for her. It sends the signal that she is going to appreciate my actions, and that she knows how to accept them with grace." -- John, Moncton, NB
