Is nose of a person an important attraction factor for you?

Asked by lovelessness (659points) September 5th, 2013

Somehow to me it is. For Courtney Love it is too… Strange. Maybe because we hate our own noses so much. What do you think about noses and human beings ?

I very rarely notice noses at all, unless they are exceptionally large or damaged in some way. So no, it’s not an attraction factor at all for me.

Eyes & titties for me, although a well shaped nose is not to be sniffed at.

I dated a guy with a pig nose for a year, so I guess I don’t mind.

Ii think I’ve got s big nose, or rather a long nose, for a girl. I got it off my grandad.

I work with a very pretty young woman, truly breath-taking. She has a distinctly “Roman” nose. I wouldn’t be at all surprised if she hates her nose; it’s a nose that you’d never see on a model or movie star. But the fact is that she wouldn’t be nearly so pretty without that nose. Not that the nose itself is so beautiful, but her face would be far less interesting without it.

It’s not my place to tell her, but I hope her fiance has reassured her that she has a perfect nose.

Yes. Yes, it is vitally important.

I have never dated a woman with no nose, and I doubt if I ever will, or would. And I would never, ever, date a man with no nose. Nor with one, either, for that matter.

I guess it would matter if they wore glasses. Other than that no.

Nah. I’m all about cheekbones, though. And jawlines. Bone structure for the win.

A snot-filled nose is a turn-off.

But as the owl used to say – “Hoo Nose”...

Pachy's avatar

As Cyrano De Bergerac said…

“A great nose may be an index
Of a great soul”

To which Pacy adds…
And for me, ne’er a deal-breaker”

Be amusing to witness Barry Manilow & Barbra Streisand nose jousting.

@Headhurts Doesnt he want it back?

Kardamom's avatar

For general purposes, no. I’m attracted to men with all different nose shapes and sizes, but I guess I do have a wee bit of a preference for slightly large noses.

Exhibit A

Exhibit B

No, se it is not. As an All American Male, I can say that boobs stand out more than nasal features in females and I believe I read somewhere that there are other males but I do not recall seeing one that was not on ESPN.

trailsillustrated's avatar

Yes very much so a nice profile is such an asset.

Katniss's avatar

@Kardamom I love how you always add visuals!

Noses aren’t a deal breaker for me, but I prefer a larger, rather than a smaller nose on a man.

I’ve always felt like mine was too large. Thanks dad! lol

Kardamom's avatar

@Katniss I think you are super-cute! Your nose is lovely. I like it. In fact, I was recalling that I was kind of heart-broken when Jennifer Grey (from Dirty Dancing and Ferris Bueller) got a nose job. She looks totally fine now, but she is completely un-recognizable as Jennifer Grey.

Before with her awesome nose

And after with her just like everyone else’s nose

And can you actually imagine Babs without this stunning profile? Me thinks not.

OpryLeigh's avatar

I like a strong nose. I don’t understand why society has lead us to believe that a larger nose is less attractive, I much prefer I big nose to a small nose generally speaking.

@kardamom Thank you for the Babs pic :)

Kardamom's avatar

@Leanne1986 You’re very welcome. If you enjoyed that picture, you might also enjoy This One

Unbroken's avatar

The picture are nice. Oh and by the way I have a ginormous nose. I doubt you have a nose bigger then mine and truthfully it has never amounted to a bigger deal then it is in my head… Self esteem issue in other words. Unless you have a career in modeling or such it won’t

Seek's avatar

@Unbroken – Fabio’s nose is so big it killed a goose. And he’s done all kinds of modeling. ;-)

Katniss's avatar

@Kardamom thank you so much :0))

Adirondackwannabe's avatar

@Katniss What are you worried about your nose? You have nothing at all to worry about.

Katniss's avatar

@Adirondackwannabe Thank you :0) I just feel like it’s a little large.

Adirondackwannabe's avatar

@Katniss Believe me, it’s nice.

OpryLeigh's avatar

@Kardamom I think it is fair to say that I am attracted to “obvious” features rather than subtle ones. If I’m being honest, I find Rowan Atkinson’s (AKA Mr Bean) face to be rather endearing too!

Katniss's avatar

@Leanne1986 Rowan Atkinson is so goofy looking he’s adorable.
Some of those faces he makes just kill me.

Kardamom's avatar

And let’s not forget about Simon Helberg aka Howard Wallowitz from The Big Bang Theory. His eyes are pretty spectacular too.

Katniss's avatar

@Kardamom He was looking pretty hot when he was dressed like a goth dude on the one episode.

Seek's avatar

I think Raj is adorable.

I kind of have a thing for Indians.

Katniss's avatar

I love Sheldon! Leonard is super cute.

Seek's avatar

Penny makes me drool.

OpryLeigh's avatar

@Kardamom I’ve always had a bit of a crush on Leonard from Big Bang and yes, @Seek_Kolinahr, Penny!

Kardamom's avatar

Those big bangers are all super cute aren’t they? I first fell in love with Leonard (Johnny Galecki) when he was on Roseanne.

@Seek_Kolinahr I love Raj’s accent!!! I like the Indian men too. Check out This Picture of Nehru
