Although I think you can be hot hinting around certain things (I think I know exactly what Jules4Fun is talking about here) - I think it's probably a lot of effort to hint at the right things. Consider when you see something hot on network TV. They don't show the explicit act, but they are very clear about what they are implying.
To that end, I think I might enjoy a story that contains some implicit sex, but not ambiguous sex. I'm not a fan of stories or movies that end with an unclear outcome (some probably see that as a personal fault), but if I wanted to decide an ending myself I would just come up with my own story. When I read a story I want to see what stories others have come up with.

I don't think that flirting is cheating, at least not inherently.
If a woman has a boyfriend but works as a waitress and she flirts with her customers then is she cheating on him?
I agree with this - that there are situations where it is somewhat expected of you, and that it isn't ALWAYS a wrong. However...

Flirting is NOT cheating. Flirting is a socially acceptable way of harmlessly burning off sexual tension. It's life affirming and non-threatening and creative and fun.
When you talk about flirting like this - as "burning off sexual tension" - I think you've probably crossed the line. Again, that depends on the relationship. But if it's something that you wouldn't want to be caught doing, you're probably 'cheating' in one form or another. Maybe not in a way that would stand up in court, but as they say you may not be breaking the letter of the law, but you're breaking the spirit.
To me, flirting is the chase between predator and prey. If your flirting is witty banter to get a smile out of an 85 year old woman you have no intention of sleeping with, you're probably ok. If you're flirting with the slutty 20 something at the bar because you're horny and your significant other isn't there, you're probably not ok.

Maybe it's a character flaw (forgive the pun) but I personally like knowing physical stuff early because when I read I am trying to visualize. If I'm 3/4 of the way through the story and get details like that thrown in then, well I'm already down another road. But I guess most of that naturally flows as you paint the picture for the reader.
As I work on my first story (about 3500 words at maybe the halfway point?), I don't have the physical descriptions in the first paragraph (I frame the story a little first) but the superficial details follow shortly thereafter, with 'character' details more flowing from conversation throughout.

As far as I can tell, he's right- he is the biggest rock star.
Now, if we're going to say "well, literally speaking, he doesn't produce 'rock music', so he's not the biggest rock star", then I guess that's one way of looking at it. But a) the term 'rock star' generally means something broader than a specific music genre (Madonna is and was a massive rock star, even though she's never 'rocked'), and b) there's no disputing the fact that hip-hop has replaced 'rock music' in terms of popularity and cultural influence. Hip Hop, which makes up or directly influences most of the top 40 today, is what Rock used to be, and Kanye is it's biggest and arguably most talented personality.
If you took ten typical fans of pop music in 2013, I'm not sure two of them could pick Eric Clapton out of a lineup, and most wouldn't know who Freddie Mercury was.
I'm not sure I would say "no disputing that hip-hop has replaced 'rock music'"

Looking at this I would say Pop dominates it. I have no idea how many sub-genres these break down into, but even if Rap, hip-hop, and R&B were in one group I still don't think that's the biggest part of the list. I would definitely agree that rock does not dominate it the way it once did, but it looks more like people have come to accept way more with stuff like country taking up some high spots on here (and not just Taylor Swift).
Even outside that debate - even if you consider any music star to be a rock star. He's still not the biggest. Is he talented? sure. I have a couple of his songs. But he's not the biggest anything except idiot. And with Bieber still out there - that's saying a lot. :P
He's just saying rock star to counter-protest the people of Glastonbury petitioning to get him out of there because he isn't a 'Rock Star' (sorry if someone brought this up already)

As someone currently writing his first (for here at least) I think if someone hated it enough to put it at a 1 or 2 then I would appreciate feedback about what they would like. I would also of course like to hear if there was something I did that they think I should always do. But simply linking the two forces feedback - it doesn't force meaningful feedback. Someone could give you a 3 and write "Great story!" without telling you what they think you could do to make it better next time.
The comments are a method of people letting you know what they liked, whether they would like to hear more on that storyline, or what they would consider changing. I would almost say that forced voting is counterproductive because it makes the author wade through 'benign' comments that don't help the author improve. When I publish, I just plan to take whatever comments I get, use them to improve or steer further stories, or just to be happy that I get any votes or stories at all

I don't, but at 5'10"/5'11" depending on the day, doesn't really matter to me. I've known some people to lie and wear some resoled shoes plus inserts. I guess your height doesn't matter once you're horizontal ;)
Look at Tom Cruise - That dude has made a killing pretending to be taller than he is.

I think timing has a lot to do with it as well.
I think you have a lot of great insight in there - Perfect changes for people as they change. Further I think you're good in distinguishing the perfect person from the perfect relationship.
I met the perfect woman, did not have my shit together, and although we loved each other very much, I fucked that one away.
Fortunately, experience made me better and years later when I found a perfect woman again, I was able to hold on.
So to answer the original Question:
Yes (x2)
if yes: 1) and 2) Both Yes.
