This is dumb as shit. Unless the gay men are also blind men who grew up in the Bible Belt and had no sex education, this is contrived. Lesbians know what a penis is and gay men know what a vagina is. We can all draw zebras and elephants and most of us don't see those very often either.

HOW DARE YOU ECHO MY SENTIMENT!!!

I find the "I just *can't* eat vegetables because yucky!" thing to be sad and juvenile, and unhealthy. But hey, if you want to kill yourself slowly off the diet a toddler would envy, go-head-on. My husband and I are trash compactors. From the finest and most exotic dishes, to making dinner out of Cheez-its and hot…

Yes! Eating like a chicken-nuggets only toddler is not only a red flag for inflexibility and entitlement, but it is a HUGE TURN OFF for me. If I have to try to coax them to try new things, I feel like their mom and every sexual feeling will vanish in a puff of resentful smoke.

My ex-husband would eat just about anything... but the thing was, he was as happy with a peanut butter sandwich as he was a steak at a high end restaurant. And that was hard, because he just didn't revel in the novelty or the new tastes. He could take it or leave it. I'd beg him to go to dinner with me and he never…

Yeah, that kind of thing is a dealbreaker for me too. And not liking any "foreign" foods would be a HUGE "possible/probable racist" red flag!

I was once developing a feeling for a guy when I discovered that he was vegan, didn't drink, and didn't like dogs. The feeling went away.

My ex was the most boring eater I've ever met. All he would eat was plain chicken and white rice. Sometimes cereal, I think? I mean, I literally have no idea how he was alive because I remember him ordering teriyaki chicken and white rice from the Thai place down the street for practically every meal. Because he…

My sister's 27-year-old boyfriend lives of pizza rolls and Dr Pepper. I hate him for several good reasons but the food thing really tops it off.

My sister's ex husband lived on chicken strips, grilled cheese, hamburgers, plain noodles with butter, and french fries. We went on a cruise and he ordered from the kids menu every night. Five courses of everything from escargot to duck confit to creme brulee and this man ate chicken strips dipped in fucking ketchup…

I once was dumped by a guy who said, and I quote "We're just not going to work. I could eat Burger King every day for the rest of my life and you know that's not what you want." I didn't see it then, but he did me an enormous favor calling it off.

My sister in law doesn't eat vegetables. She actually doesn't eat a lot of stuff. I couldn't live with her it would drive me crazy. My brother is a really good cook so I feel bad for him. Luckily my nieces seem to be taking after him with their food choices.

I agree with all of this. If you really think about food in relationships its crazy how much it influences things. I was just thinking about how I love trying new restaurants and how some Sundays my boyfriend and I will drive somewhere that is 45 minutes away just to try it because we heard something good about it…

My former coworkers in a more rural area than I work in now could not believe my husband would eat quiche or spinach artichoke dip (I would bring these things to work potlucks). Granted, there were a lot of cultural differences despite being 30 or so minutes away from the state capitol, but it was very odd. The men I…

It's true, but also... you're going to be eating together. You can read separate books, watch different shows, listen to different music, but preparing separate meals and/or going to separate restaurants all the time is tough.

I'll be honest, if I met a guy who only wanted to eat at McDonald's and said right away that he didn't like 'foreign' foods (as I have heard some people say before), there probably wouldn't have been a third date. My husband and I are unabashed foodies and get a lot of pleasure out of sharing new experiences. It…

Slightly off topic-I could never find myself dating (or marrying, oh the horror!) someone that didn't drink. Maybe it's because I'm a Wisco gal, but man, that would really drive a wedge because I like to go to bars and social events that involve alcohol. Perhaps it's because I've run into a few men over the past few…

Isn't it all just a matter of priority? You obviously hold up the food thing as a high priority, so you would never do such a thing, which is fine. But somebody else may not care about that, and instead their priority might be the types of books the other person reads, or their clothes, or really anything else. To…

Nope. Sorry. I could not get past someone eating only kid foods. Its one thing to not like something but to limit your options to places you would take your kid cousin would not fly with me. I think being an adult picky eater also shows an unwillingness to adapt to change and its a pretty clear indicator that you're…

I got on talking about Avril because of a reference to her in comments.
