would a woman rather have a guy that looks sexy or one that is loyal and honest and faithful?

The truth is physical appearance is the first point attraction. All other things we will see them later. So in most cases women enjoy the waaw they get from their friends rather than what they will get at home

What stands out to a woman is how a man carries himself. So his aura, the energy he exudes.
In other words, he appears confident AND happy even though he's single.

The reason women seem to fall for sexy men is because they exude self-confidence.
So it's not that women are looking for a sexy men. They just make the mistake in thinking these men are the confident, happy, masculine guy she longs to be with.
It almost always ends with the woman getting her heart broken, until she learns to discern between these players and a real masculine, emotionally available man.

Looks haven't got much to do with it. And thank goodness as there are very few men that are good-looking.

Also... most men who think they are "good" men are almost always men that don't have self-confidence and/or happiness in life and/or aren't emotionally available because they still carry the past with 'em.
That's not particularly attractive! Yet most men are like that and then they think "I'm a good man! I'm a good catch."
They're not.
Whether man or woman, no one wants to be with someone who's not happy, not emotionally available, and doesn't have self-confidence.
Such people aren't "good partner" material, but toxic.

To me sexy like beauty is skin deep and yes that might be a turn on but also being loyal, honest and faithful is a turn on for me too.

A man who’s respectful. The rest will follow.

To go further than those first few dates, I think a guy probably needs to have more ticks in a few more boxes for most women in my opinion.

...and some of us are loyal and honest and faithful too.

Over confidence is a bad sign too. You cant have a man or woman who feels he/she is meat for everbody. Those who tells you me if you leave i will find another one tommorow.

Sexy starts with a smile...simply "S"

It's up to you, with whom you interact an make it out...
People change as the circumstances changes.. Man or Woman, you never know what's gonna happen further.

Loyal, honest and faithful in today's life is hard...

... and, the self proclaimed "nice guys"
have the psychological tendencies of
passive aggressive behaviour.

Exactly
