Pretty straightforward question.  
I’m thinking of pure physical characteristics, those anyone can see. Don’t tell me “her mind is sexy” (which I wholly get, my wife’s intelligence is maybe the main reason I fell in love with her) but that’s for another thread.

By wife I mean a steady relationship, whatever you think that is.

I understand that there are several other options of (married) couple other than birth-male + birth-female, but indulge me if you please.

Moderating:

This thread was closed because it was framed in a sexist way (assuming all the posters are guys) and was designed to get (presumably male) posters to talk about the “hotness” of the women they date or to whom they are married, which contributes to an unfriendly atmosphere for other posters.\*

\*We are trying to move away from casual sexism, and this topic is a step in the wrong direction.

For these reasons, the thread will remain permanently closed.
