Superhumans

So, what's the ideal man, and the ideal woman for you? personality, behaviour, looks?

Does an ideal like that exist for you?

Do you think it's right to hold an ideal like that?

Now, this isn't just what you'd look for in a partner, mind you, becuase I am also asking about people that you don't prefer orientation-wise.

How different are your perfect man and your perfect woman?

Do you wish to be the perfect man/woman? and if so, how big an effort do you make in that direction?

Our purpose here is to survive.

The longest who ever lived is the closest to Superhuman.

So I guess that's Adam.

(Which is my way of saying it's a bit of a silly question).

I mean if I had to design a perfect couple to say repopulate the human race it would be like this:
Perfect genetic health, especially physically. But that's obvious right? Mentally maybe allow a bit of eccentricity so that genius can flourish (I mean you don't want your perfect couple to just hump each other all the time).
Personality isn't that important, except they should both be somewhat more gentle, understanding and compassionate than your average human. The savage thing worked great for a few million years but it's not so hot in the modern urban jungle. I think it's right (if not realistic) to have this ideal. People who act like savages make bad humans.

Obviously the guy needs to look like a norse god because that's the sterotype. The woman shouldn't look like a supermodel or an ugly hag, somewhere in between would be good. (sexy enough to be attractive, strong enough to be useful). Actually the same should go for the guy, perfection in this case is more like perfectly average rather than extreme. The woman should have red hair and the man brown or black hair. Recessive genes for blonde okay I guess.

I do not wish to be the perfect man. That would make me not-me which would frankly suck, I like being me. I'd like a perfect woman though .

But women can be both strong and attractive.

My idea for a perfect individual, be it male of female, is that they have to combine things that seem contradictory but really aren't.

People should be:

-Self-reliant, and on the other hand helpful to others, and sharing ( it's not contradicting, but some people say that if you educate the former, you lose the latter, and vice versa)
-Should be able to defend themselves, and others, and not offend other people.
-Should be communicative.
-Should be original.

In terms of their bodies, they shouldn't suffer from any genetic deseases and conditions, and should be both in excellent cardio shape. Men's physique should be more about strength, and women's more about flexibility - the areas in which the bodies excel.

In their behavior towards other people men and women should behave a like, and be treated alike, well, except during a relationship, women should be coquettish, and men macho ( both in a non-offensive manner, of course).

Looks? Men should be 180-190, women should be 175-185.

Both men and women should be educated in all aspects of life, should know many crafts, and should enjoy sports, play musical instruments ,etc.

Men, and women should enjoy the same conditions in the same jobs and working enviroments.

I think that's about it.

I don't think a perfect person exists. I think that, character wise, a perfect person is no longer attractive.

How come? I never understood this: a perfect person wouldn't be an ******* about it.

By definition the "perfect human" is NOT superhuman. To be superhuman is to be inhuman.
