A perfect man would be tall, physically built in a way that appears he is strong and also have blue eyes. The man does not have to be highly muscular, but should not have a skinny physique. He needs to have strong hands and having a sweet body smell like olive or lavender scent. The ideal man would, therefore, have to maintain a clean look and smart dressing in order to have a fresh scent from his body always. In terms of values, such a man needs to be honest and straightforward in his dealing at all times. A man who finds pleasure in lying about things he does or his lifestyle cannot make for an ideal individual. A man who is honest also becomes dependable because such an individual would be reliable, kind-hearted, humble, and even caring (Honacker).<\/p>\n
A perfect man would be a person with a sense of humor to make life enjoyable and adventurous. Such an individual would ensure that even in harsh times, he makes the other person feel that they can tackle any situation. A sense of humor ensures that a person can have a strong relationship, and deal with stressful situations amicably. An ideal man would also be self-aware, and this ensures that such an individual knows how to interact with others. Self-awareness ensures that an ideal man can be able to recognize his strengths and weaknesses and still live life without self-loathing or low self-esteem. A perfect man is someone who can recognize mistakes and learn from them in order to better the future. The perfect man would, therefore, be all-rounded in terms of integrity, intelligence, emotional stability, self-confidence, discipline and also generosity (Honacker).<\/p>\n
