What do you love in a woman?
May 01, 2009
Some say ‘beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder’ while others believe ‘the beautiful ones are not yet born’. But is a woman’s beauty that elusive and difficult to understand? Does each man look at a woman’s beauty using different lenses?

If she is natural (without makeup) and decently dressed, then she is attractive. A skimpily-dressed woman or one with a lot of makeup is a put-off.
Aloysius Ganyana, 25,
businessman
I love a light-skinned and medium built woman I can proudly show off to my friends.
Ashraf Ssemwogerere, actor and film director
A woman who is decently dressed in unrevealing clothes like sharia is attractive. I am also struck by chocolate skinned women of medium build.
Abdulmajid Kakooza, 37,
taxi driver
She has to be well-groomed, disciplined and respectable so that she does not ashame me because I value my image.
Abias Nkahikayo, 27,
computer scientist
A sexy woman is one who maintains her natural hair, because I cannot afford treatment or hair extensions. Women who remain natural usually have nothing to hide.
Silver Kyagulanyi, Singer and song writer
I am struck by intelligence. The mouth is the vent of everything so you can tell the way she thinks from the way she speaks. Smartness begins in the head and it spreads to the way she thinks, acts, dresses and carries herself. I respect women with intelligence.
Samson Mawenu, 28, civil servant Slender and tall women are attractive. I find them feminine, presentable and they usually have pleasant personalities.
William Luswata, 30, farmer
I love my woman to be tall and slender.
Fred Lule, 27, salesman
A woman who has romantic eyes, a soft voice and has a catwalk style of walking takes my breath away. I am disturbed by women with masculine attributes.
Anatoli Kamugasa, Akright Uganda managing director
I love a natural beauty with a nice smile, entertaining, receptive and an intellectual. One who can listen and make powerful arguments, must be fluent in her speech, smart and has a decent dress code. She must also be able to give positive advice.
