I generally default to playing Arthur as having some sort of history with Eames—probably a relationship that didn't work out due to personality conflicts, and not the nicest breakup—which I feel like canon sort of dances around but doesn't commit to. He can come off as flirty around/toward women and I am totally down for female characters (or nb characters, though we never see an example of this in canon so this is extrapolation) misreading him as flirting with them/interested in them.

Arthur's type, as much as he has a coherent type, tends to be masc men who are sturdier than himself. Twinks don't really do anything for him, but, conversely, neither do bears (cubs and chubs are a sort of case-by-case basis). He "dates" outside of his ethnoreligious group, and while his parents would prefer that he bring home a Jewish partner, they mostly just want him to be happy. He's secular, but he's put off by "all religion is stupid delusion" type atheists, and he'd be able to accept a moderate level of practicing reform Judaism or Islam in a partner; Christianity would be heavily dependent upon the sect, the level of practice, and the degree of emphasis the sect places on evangelism/conversion/prosthelytizing/'spreading the faith', which he doesn't hold much regard for and is uncomfortable with. Other major religions like Hinduism and Buddhism would be similarly case-by-case.

Personality-wise, Arthur goes for men he clocks as competent enough to be trustworthy, people with a witty sort of sense of humor and an ability to work alongside him and take things seriously when the time calls for it. His personality demands a degree of patience in a partner—Arthur's pattern of bonding is to dance around exposing himself and truly bonding in a deeper way until he is certain that A) romantic sentiments are returned and B) he's not about to walk out onto thin ice—partners have to demonstrate to him that they are reliable and worthy of his emotional investment before he truly opens up to them.

He does well with men who can make him laugh and who are able to bring out his playful side, people who are able to take a step back and take things less seriously and add a little levity to a situation. Arthur deeply needs to feel valued and seen and understood.

Arthur's 5'9 and lean—a nice way to say slight but toned—with some visible muscle tone but lacking in the defined abs or sinewy legs of someone who goes to the gym with appearance as a specific goal. Where body hair is concerned, it's light brown, a scant amount over his sternum and a small trail under his navel; he keeps everything that would be covered by his briefs clean-shaven but doesn't do anything from the upper thighs down, and likewise with his arms. He's cut, with a thoroughly average dick. No tattoos or scars to speak of.

He's versatile and will top or bottom depending on the kind of mood he's in, and can likewise be more dominant or more submissive depending on individual chemistry and even just across individual moments with the same partner. Generally speaking, though, when he bottoms, he's a powerbottom and wants to be the one giving the commands unless it's someone he knows and trusts very well—he wouldn't bottom in a submissive way in a hookup situation because that's a level of vulnerability he doesn't like. The one exception to this is if he's acting out some breeding kink fantasy be it roleplay in the real world or more immersive in a dream setting, in which case he errs a little more submissive because giving up control—of the situation and of his body—is part of the fantasy for him.

Arthur's usual pattern is no-strings-attached hookups where that expectation is clearly enumerated to the partner and a mutual understanding is established and confirmed beforehand. He always uses protection, and won't be persuaded against it—he doesn't know where they've been and vice-versa.
