What is your "type?" Is it the girl who is everyone’s Tumblr wet dream, the guy whose entire wardrobe is Urban Outfitters, or the antithesis of both? I took the time to sit down and talk to nine men, or almost 'men,' about their perfect mates. This is what they had to say:
*The following names are changed to preserve the identity of the interviewees*
Tim, 19: My ideal type of girl is intelligent and funny above all. She loves Star Wars and movies and lazy days, but she’s always open to a day of walking around the city or a park. Most importantly is that she accepts me for who I am.

Sean, 16: Okay so I like a girl with a fat booty and a nice personality… also brown or blonde hair.

Jermaine, 24: Intelligent, ambitious, and good in bed.
In all, I am happy to say that the men I know are generally respectful towards men, women, and the likes. Their descriptions of their dream bae either made my heart swoon or brought about signs of heartburn. While it seems that everyone doesn’t have a “type,” most people crave the babe they can vibe with.
