Answer 
I have been asked this question many times over the decades I have taught guitar, and I totally understand that people want some good advice.
I will give you my advice, and you can decide to follow it, or not as you please.
What we need to be aware of when we are starting to learn guitar, those first few weeks of learning open chords, how to tune the strings e.t.c is that your finger tips are going to get very sore.
This is unavoidable, your finger tips have very sensitive skin, and lots of nerve endings, pressing down very hard on guitar strings (and you will be surprised at just how much pressure you need to use) takes its toll.
At this point, many people tend to give up, because they simply did not understand just how sore their finger tips would get.
Many beginning players want to start with an electric guitar, or a steel string acoustic - they are told it is fine, that you can play what you like.
