What qualities do you look for in a woman? What are your deal breakers?

It's just if you are debating religion. I think this should be fine if everyone obeys the rules.

I agree. It is sort of generalizing.

The only difference I really see is that someone who puts a lot of time, effort, and belief into their religion probably seek partners who are at the same level/ mindset as them.

This is pretty much true for anyone though...

It all depends on how much a man values his religion.


I am a Christian man but I do not use that as a way to find values in a woman.

In a woman I PREFER that she is Christian but I would not count her out if she has different beliefs.

So as a Christian man, here is what I look for and I agree that it is not much different than any other man with other beliefs (as Ghost69 said)

She has to be hot

She has to be attractive

She has to have a nice body

She has to be sexy.... lol JK

#1 I prefer that she is also Christian
#2 She must take care of herself physically and financially (I find women that depend on men very unattractive)
#3 Sense of humor
#4 open minded/spontaneous
#5 She must be over her "party, party, party! I LIVE to PARTY" phase
#6 I prefer that she has a strong relationship with her family
#7 Goal oriented

These are just a few things but I would have to say that interests in women will vary GREATLY from one man to anoter. Even IF they are both Christian men.

I don't consider myself a Christian by title, but I would like a woman who's there for me, doesn't judge me, because she herself is also human and makes mistakes, and we work with one another and do our best to be understanding before getting angry... and I've got one!

Side opinion, I don't think it matters by "religion"...it just matters who you are as a person and whether or not you would like to live and work out your lives together, many people are looking for the same things, they just have to be willing to give the same things in the relationship.

I would agree with this. A regular church-goer would probably not want to date someone who does not want to attend at all. Some people closely follow the words of the bible, others use it as a general guideline. A very pious person probably follows the bible to the word & wants to date people who do the same.

IMO lot of people actually like to date only people from their own religion. They may meet a great person but don't hesitate to rule them out because they do not belong to their religion.

I'm not exactly schooled in different religions, but I think there are some that require you to marry within your religion only. I don't know which ones.
