What makes a Man sexy

[mom2rb]

He has to be able to make me laugh.

As for the $$$, when I met DH he was a pizza boy. I worked two jobs and paid for everything. About 6 years later I told him in jest " That I had shown that I loved him for him and I was ready to love him for his money ". Now every time he gets a raise he asks me if it is enough $$ to stick around a while longer .

OK, I picked eyes, smile and other -- because for me it seems that the voice gets me the most. But it's also honesty and self confidence (not to be confused with arrogance).

 

[sweet angel]

I picked eyes, smile, brain, other. Sure, muscles are nice, but if the guy can't form a sentence, it gets old fast. Nice place to visit, wouldn't want to live there!!

For me, a guy must have a fun-loving personality and a great sense of humor...and I've always been drawn to blue collar workers over white collar. Someone who is my equal -- not superior, nor inferior.

AND NO HAIRY BACKS!!!

There are women who are all about "the bling." I have a golddigging aunt. She has had many boyfriends and a few husbands yet no personal fulfillment and happiness. My twin sister's best gf is marrying a man 15 years older who is a millionaire and yet she is unhappy inside. I guess money and power (social status/powerful occupation/etc) is sexy to them.

I think sexy is as sexy does. (lol) I love that my dh takes care of himself and loves us (his family). I also love humor, the ability for me to be enveloped in his arms in good times and bad, and his health and fitness.

Oh, and passion is sexy. A guy has to have a passion or be passionate about life. I am not just talking about intimacy, but passion about his life, job, having a hobby, his partner, etc.

Other.....

The ability to grab me tight, hold me close and lay one heck of a hot make out session on me....

I LOVE this response!

There are too many men who are too immature or emotionally stifled to be able to do that.


For me, it is definately not one of the choices in the OP, like butt, or muscles.

It is way more complex than that.

No 'Peter Pan' for me.
No, 'sensitive and emotional' puppy dog for me.

I like a man who exudes maturity, confidence, and masculinity.
That is what gets me hot!!!!!


PS: maturity is not 'stodginess'. Confidence is not 'cockiness' and masculinity is not 'big muscles' or a 'man's man' attitude.

You forgot one --- I've told my husband repeatedly, there's nothing sexier than a man mopping my kitchen floor!

Yup. Extremely sexy.

 

[DisneyAddict_M]

As far as physical characteristics, I chose eyes and smile. It's so much more than that though. I'll have to agree with the poster who said maturity, confidence and masculinity. I also think a smart man who can state his point in a clear, concise manner without starting an argument or debate is very sexy. Whining is not sexy.

 

[Cantw8]

what did ya say, I didnt hear ya, I was looking at my hairy chest,, while crying about all the world hunger going on

yep, that's it

 

[The Mystery Machine]

I'll just roll my sleeves up....

Too late...just showed this to my dh and well...
Yep...making out is sexy to me.

There are definitely women who are all about the money. I know a woman who has been married many times, each time for money and status. She makes sure she walks out of each relationship with a huge house to sell and split the profits. She just had a husband die and said, seriously the day that he died, "Thank God we finally bought the house!"

But that goes both ways, because I know gold-digging men, too.

Anyway, I vote for brains as far as long term attraction goes. I can't be attracted to someone I can't have a decent conversation and a few laughs with! But for that first eye-catching physical trait, it's the smile.

Strewth that was quick even for me!

 

[tiggersmom2]

It is really a combo of everything for me, but the most important thing is attitude. If a man is confident, sure of himself and has a great attitude....that is all I could want (well....almost )

 

[1Prince2Princesses]

I like arms and backs. Not hairy backs, but broad, muscular ones. Ahhhhhh

I'm a big fan of pouty, kissable lips and beautiful eyes, too.

Now I can't wait for my dh to get home.

 

[cristit14]

I went with smile, eyes and other. The other is making me laugh. DH has all of these (and a really nice butt ).

Awhile back I got an email from my best friend that said, "Are you going to tell Rachel (DD) to marry for love?". That's all the email said. I responded with "VS what?" Turns out she was having a bad couple of weeks with her DH and was really frustrated.

 

[pearlieq]

The physical doesn't matter too much to me. As long as he's reasonably acceptable looking, the way most people are, that's fine with me. Love colors how we see someone anyways.

I couldn't have married a man that wasn't smart, though. Of course he also had to be a kind, decent person with a good sense of humor, but he had to have a mind I could respect.

As for the money question, it's complicated. I don't consider myself a gold-digger, but it was important to me that DH have strong career prospects and ambitions. Who would want to marry a person, male or female, who wasn't interested in supporting themself? I was an acheiver and I expected the same out of a potential mate.

When I first started dating DH he had a high paying (for us at the time) job and his own apartment, which put him light years ahead of other guys our age. Was that a turn on? Sure. Did I marry him solely for that reason? No. Did I leave him when he lost his job a few year later? Of course not.

So, a long answer to a short question. What makes a man sexy to me? Brains, ambition, kindness, and a sense of humor.

Eyes and smile are always nice- if a guy has a really genuine smile, I can't help but smile back! (Nice butt and broad shoulders can't hurt either!)

For me, it's much more about the personality though- he's got to be intelligent, confident, and genuinely kind. Just knowing that he truly cares about me is INCREDIBLY sexy!

Back hair is a dealbreaker for me!

 

[NewJersey]

Eyes and smile, for sure. The guy next door look is so hot to me. I love a guy who can be goofy, make me laugh, has a great heart, intelligent, and can talk about anything with me.

 

[Evil Genius]

Great eyes and a wicked sense of humor gets me everytime.

 

[ziggystardust]

Eyes and smile, for sure. The guy next door look is so hot to me. I love a guy who can be goofy, make me laugh, has a great heart, intelligent, and can talk about anything with me.

Sounds perfect. I also have a thing for rockabilly guys - with all of the quoted qualities

 

[RitaZ.]

Broad shoulders and strong arms are a must.

Confident,smart, educated; yet humble.

Must respect women, be kind and have a sense of humor.

Fortunately, DH meets all my criteria!

Men that are controlling and treat women like we are below them are a complete turn-off. "Neanderthals" always turned me off.
