Things Men Should Never Look For In Women: Add Yours

#4 and #5 can both apply to plenty of guys as well.
Lots of guys are not interested in intellectual conversation. They would rather just talk about sports, TV shows (in a non intellectual way), and banging chicks. This failing is common to both genders. I am a university professor and work with a lot of smart women who can have intellectual conversations. Although, I will admit that they are almost always older and topics are generally limited to their areas of research. Hence, I agree with DOBA that such traits don't generally transfer into their non-work lives.
With regard to loving unconditionally, men don't do that either. Love is never unconditional, except generally in the case of a mother and her children. However, the latter is due to biological drives that cannot be replicated. People change, which can cause someone to fall out of love. Either because the person they were in love with changed into someone they could no longer love, or they themselves changed such that their current partner no longer meets their expectations for someone they love. Would you expect someone to still love you if you became obese, addicted to hard drugs, etc.?
I'm not trying to invalidate McQueen's points, so much as I am just trying to indicate that they come across as unnecessarily biased towards women in that they don't acknowledge the same traits exist in men.
