... "good sized breasts" and "fit body"...... plus let's not forget the gem where his answer to the question, "what his gavourite book was"... was "I don't read"...

Yessirreeee....he's looking for the perfect mother for his little girl!:shocked!:  :shocked!: 

I seriously doubt he thought this questionnaire would become public. With that being said, physical attraction is a huge part of any relationship. If you are not physically attracted as well as emotionally, the relationship will never work. I give him props for being honest.

We all have a type we are attracted to so why criticize the verbalization of something he finds attractive in a woman. Ask any man and he will have an answer for you, some are leg men, some are a## men, some are boob men.

I personally prefer a man to be over 6' tall with light eyes - that is something I find attractive. Does that mean I couldn't become interested in a man who is 5'8" with dark eyes? No. But if someone asked me what I found attractive on a form, I would write 6' + with light eyes.

:greenman: I may be mis-remembering this being about JuanPablo, but I think I read that he did not complete his questionnaire personally, but answered over the phone (while driving?)to someone else (? friend, sister?) who did fill in? Could it be that he said that remark about "good size breasts"  in jest to that friend, as an aside, and they actually jokingly wrote it in, thinking that would be edited out?

I agree. In one of my favorite books on relationships, If the Buddha dated, author Charlotte Kasl asks the reader to make a list of all his/her preferences in a future made. She encourages making the list as all-inclusive as possible irrespective of how shallow a preference might seem. She, however, does not consider personal preferences about appearance to be necessarily shallow. After a list is made, it then can be sorted into different categories including "must haves", "strongly prefers" and would like but can do without.

These questionnaires are filled out during audition, on location.... Therefore, his presence would be required

Ok, my misunderstanding.   I was referring to the Access Hollywood interview he gave before Bachelorette started.  The first minute of that interview is when he mentioned he gave his female friend "free reign" to fill in everything for the application and then he ignored the contract they subsequently sent to him, so she filled in the contract with him over phone while he was driving.    I guess the questionnaire is from a different point in the process.

:Smiley:  Yeah ,probably the application forms.. etc. that are sent to the casting ppl.

I wonder how easy it will be to read Juan Pablo? I'm hoping the forum can scoop RS & MF!

I'm relatively new on this board. Do any of the regular sleuthers and scoopers understand  or speak spanish, I wonder?   I read JPablo's tweets and sort of understand the spanish ones, but not 100%.      Looks like it's time for me to brush up on my spanish.   Who knew the Bachelor would be educational?

I agree. We all have a type. And also the idea that because he wants an attractive woman means he doesn't really care about finding a good mom for his daughter is predicated on a logical fallacy that a woman can only be attractive OR a good mother and not both. I think there are plenty of MILFs out there who would disagree.  

I still find it in in bad taste, especially combined with tweets like this: (sure, all fun, but none-the-less telling)
