That's pretty different from pretty much...well everything that I've ever known about initial attraction. With every single person I've ever been friends with or ever spoken about the subject to, it's always something physical that sparks initial attraction. Not always just purely physical attractiveness, sometimes its something specific, like a lot of girls I know are really drawn to eyes. I know a couple people who are drawn to a person with a certain sense of style, or who wear really nice shoes.
It was always my belief that in order to form an immeadiate attraction, it would have to be something physical, because that's the thing that is readily apparent when you first look at a person. Of course, once a person opens their mouth and starts displaying their personality, that attraction could strengthen or vanish completely. It is of course entirely possilble to feel attracted towards someone based solely on personality, but general that's something that develops, not something that is so apparent right away.
