The best qualities in a Woman are:
-self-esteem A woman that doesn't believe in herself will never make other believe in her, and men like them to be confident, but never over do it.
Apperance No matter what everyone says, men like a woman that was a good body, and, most importantly, a cute face. Go see a Dermatologist so that you can get a smooth skin, and go at least once a week to a gym.
Sence of Humor Never underestimate a good sense of humour, some girls don't are especially good looking and can still get good looking men. It is proven that this category is one of the most important 5.
Interest Although it may not seem like this, men may be interested in you he known’s that you are interested in him. Talk to him, touch him a bit in his hair, hands, etc., call him now and then, but never be to direct. Let him make the second move. Give him some space so that he can realise that he might be losing something.
Brains It may not seam so but men like women that are intelligence, so that they can have good conversations. You don’t have to know everything, or be always right, but you can show that there are some subjects that you know more than him, without rubbing in he’s face. This will get to him, and he will realise that he is not superior to you.
“Sole attention” When you both know that the other one like’s you, you should pay more attention to him than you do to other male friends. Most men are jealous and they want to know that you want him rather then another one. It is good to talk about past relationships, but it is never good to compare them with the present ones.
Spontaneous life may be dull if you are in a routined relationship, try new things. Be different, surprise yourself, if you want something fight for it. Don’t be shy, and never be afraid to talk to other people even you just want to get some information of where you are.
Hygienic Although the first impression is always the most important, you should look your best. The teeth are very important, as your smell. A good perfume is always precious.
Style The clothes are important, especially if you can pull them off. Not everyone looks good with the some colour and styles. Adjust yourself to want you want to be and want you think will look better on you
I have learned this through my life and believe me this are the qualities what we most appreciate. If you want to know what you should change, some opinions or maybe just post your thoughts, please feel free to comment ;)

"Qualities of Men?" (Kami)
Here are some - listed by Rudyard Kipling in his poem "IF"... Enjoy. Ohso.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Are losing theirs and blaming it on you,
If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you,
But make allowance for their doubting too;
If you can wait and not be tired by waiting,
Or being lied about, don't deal in lies,
Or being hated, don't give way to hating,
And yet don't look too good, nor talk too wise:
If you can dream - and not make dreams your master;
If you can think - and not make thoughts your aim;
If you can meet with Triumph and Disaster
And treat those two impostors just the same;
If you can bear to hear the truth you've spoken
Twisted by knaves to make a trap for fools,
Or watch the things you gave your life to, broken,
And stoop and build 'em up with worn-out tools:
If you can make one heap of all your winnings
And risk it on one turn of pitch-and-toss,
And lose, and start again at your beginnings
And never breathe a word about your loss;
If you can force your heart and nerve and sinew
To serve your turn long after they are gone,
And so hold on when there is nothing in you
Except the Will which says to them: 'Hold on!'
If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue,
' Or walk with Kings - nor lose the common touch,
if neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you,
If all men count with you, but none too much;
If you can fill the unforgiving minute
With sixty seconds' worth of distance run,
Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it,
And - which is more - you'll be a Man, my son!

Nice post - Good to hear something positive ;)
And good feedback. Thank you.
I think I would say the same for the best qualities in a man.
- but they do like a Gentleman that can walk on his own two feet, reliable and can keep his word

I never thought about that, but you're right; the ability to make a bedroom more inviting by picking out a well-coordinated color scheme with throw pillows, sheets and an understated yet interesting bedspread is a skill that should never be overlooked.

The Independent Women's Forum has a lot to say about this issue, although they are heavily Censored by the Old Media and its Radical Gender Feminist masters.

A 'call to arms' for parental responsibility
Pete Chagnon - OneNewsNow - 9/22/2009
The Independent Women's Forum reports that its "About Our Children" event was a success.
The About Our Children town hall event was a collaboration of the Independent Women's Forum and MSNBC. The event aired Sunday night and featured entertainer Dr. Bill Cosby. "You parents -- we need you, your children need you, their school teachers need you," Cosby stated during the program.
Nicole Kurokawa, a senior policy analyst with IWF, says the main message of the event was parental responsibility.
"We want to encourage parents to examine themselves and to step up and then be an advocate for their child," she says. "[We want them to know] that nobody is going to love your child the way that you love your child, and nobody is going to advocate for them and defend them like you will. So this is a call to arms."
The town hall event featured a panel of experts who spoke on issues ranging from education to healthcare. Panelists also fielded questions submitted by audience members and viewers on Twitter and YouTube.
According to Kurokawa, the event was sold out. She is hopeful her organization will be able to hold similar events in the future.
In conjunction with the effort, the IWF has launched AboutOurChildren.org, an About Our Children grassroots effort.

Ah ...Ohso
I just realized what you did to this thread - kind of a buzz kill (no offense)
Went from romance to "this just in from ...The Independent Women's Forum" - LOL
Honesty - I am not much of this type. Gets too extreme (the feminist talk). Not that I am against it or have issues with it, but just not my morning crumpet with tea, UNO?
The talk of what makes a woman attractive is nice and Normal - LOL

Ohhh Kitty:
No intent to be a fuzz buster for the thread, and no offense intended to anyone here. The question was "Best Qualities," which we apparently interpret differently.
You said: "The talk of what makes a woman attractive is nice and Normal"
For me and a lot of Men the superficial facade (makeup, accessory, costume...) used by so many Women to look 'attractive' is simply scenery; and to remain constant, unblemished and seamless (one is reminded of actress Madeline Kahn at the train station in the movie Young Frankenstein) it needs more constant upkeep than anyone but a wealthy Woman can maintain.
Not that I haven't known Women who will not venture outside the house without first "putting on a face." Ahem.
But, and as they say in the fashion industry, this is a Big But - Beauty is indeed only skin deep, and the Qualities that make for lasting and loving relationships are not based on the desire for 'eye candy,' because like chewing gum on the bedpost - it eventually loses its flavor over time.
Thus when I think of the Best Qualities of the Best Women I have known, the First one that comes to mind is Character. It is the wellspring of being a good person, and always earns admirers in a manner that all the artifice in the world cannot.
Couples that stay together for the long term, in at least relative happiness, generally get far beyond the dress up / flirt state (save for the occasional night on the town) and find things to love about each other that last longer than a look.
Soooo - IWF / NeW... They Engage Men in a positive manner that others (now, emily...) are hostile to, and Men do notice that Quality (mercy, tenderness, acceptance...), regardless of aparrell.
Author Warren Farrell once observed that he never heard a Man say he was leaving his Wife because She Understood Him.
I hope you understand what he meant.
Ohso
"A wife of noble character, who can find? She is worth more than rubies... She is clothed in strength and dignity, she can laugh at the days to come. She speaks with wisdom and faithful instruction is on her tongue...
Charm is deceptive and beauty fleeting, but a Woman who fears the Lord is to be praised. Give her the reward she has earned, and let her works bring her praise at the city gate." (Proverbs 31)

Bravo for New Women
One of my favorite comic strips used to take 'dandelion breaks' whenever the political pollen count got too high. I post the following as a reminder that while feminists Womyn may hate Men, fortunately not not all Women are Feminist Womyn, and some of them are actually New Thinkers...
Which holds out at least some hope for the future of humanity...
Ohso

Network of enlightened Women 9/29/09
NeWTea Today marks the fifth anniversary of the founding of the Network of enlightened Women.
As we celebrate our birthday, we first wanted to thank you for the support you have given us. It is amazing to see how one book club that started at UVA has grown into a powerful national movement. It is because of individuals like you that we have had such success. You recognize the problems and pressures of feminism and support us as we work to stop its effects.
NeW was founded in 2004 by Karin Agness in an effort to cultivate a community of culturally conservative women with education being the focus. Since her first book club at UVA five years ago, Karin has seen an incredible movement sweep the nation. NeW members across the nation are so thankful for Karin Agness and her dedication and faithful leadership of this organization. NeW is the fastest-growing organization for conservative college women, and it is a direct result of Karin's perseverance.
In light of our anniversary, NeW wanted to do something positive. Recently, there has been unsettling research released reporting the decline in women's happiness over the last 35 years. With more opportunities than ever before, we ask, how can this be?
NeW believes the cause to be the active feminist presence on college campuses encouraging women to disregard sex differences, embrace their sexuality, and belittle the family and motherhood.
NeW sees the need to respond to this trend in a big way. Women need to learn that sex differences are real, casual physical relationships are consequential and women actually want to be to treated like women.
NeW is actively encouraging women to embrace who they are as women instead of promoting misguided notions that sexual liberty and single-minded careerism will bring happiness. NeW encourages women to celebrate femininity and traditional values.
NeW chapters across the country will celebrate our anniversary and reclaim their happiness by hosting traditional tea parties--wearing gloves, hats, and pearls while taking tea. NeW chapters at the University of Virginia, University of Florida, University of Kentucky, and Arizona State University are among those who will participate in the tea party celebration.
Rebecca Hagelin, a champion of the pro-family movement, featured NeW in her weekly column: "Fight Campus Feminist Follies."
As well, Founder Karin Agness, took the time this week to reflect on NeW's sucess and growth. Read her latest Townhall column: "A NeW Direction for Female Happiness."
NeW hopes this celebration will encourage young women across the country to take control of their education, to embrace their femininity and to reclaim their happiness ultimately. Our five years of existence prove that conservative women exist and want to be heard. NeW gives them the opportunity to learn and express their beliefs. NeW is blessed with the opportunity to impact young women in positive ways, and we see the threat to women's happiness all too severe for college women...
Thank you for your continued support, especially during this celebration!
Sincerely,
Holly H. Carter
Executive Director
Network of enlightened Women, Inc.
