If you were to say person.... Who do you specifically mean?
But,
Man: athletic but not over-athletic, good at games, but not a gambler, plays an instrument, knows literature and history but is not a snob; shows solid and steady manliness

Women: the ideal woman is a balance to the man; graceful and kind, lively but reserved, pure, beautiful, soft and delicate; knowledgable in music and painting and know how to dance a bit
