Lamia- You are sexy; u always make me think of part of the female genitalia. 
Dolores?

I’ve been mistaken for a guy. A couple times. But some people think I’m sexy. This is, of course, the effects of the incredibly hypnotic MGV. And the fact that these people obviously have really weird perceptions of “sexy”.
I don’t think I’ve been mistaken for a guy yet, but that doesn’t mean anyone finds me particularly sexy, either…guess it never occured to anyone to think I was anything else. I talk about my hubby frequently, so maybe that’s why.
Define Wierd, please.

I don’t think I’ve engendered any crushes, but then that’s cool with me. I love it here for what the Boards do for my cerebral cortex, not my prostate gland. The name was a lark when I made it, and now it’s who I am here. Not for nothing, but it’s got a snappier ring than ** PudgyHebrewCamBoy** 
Besides, I happen to find names that totally define a person to be pretty boring. Who would want to talk to someone named ScrewedUpByHighSchoolDramaTeacherAndNowDestinedToTrampTheRoadwaysOfLifeInDespair ???

Yep, I’ve been mistaken for a guy a few times (even IRL, when I was buying stockings in a department store :rolleyes: ). So I threw my picture up on the Peoples Pages but I don’t know how many people actually go there to clarify gender.
But now to the question: are we sexy? HELL YES! The problem is that many of us are either ill at ease with flirting or lack the skills that elicits legions of followers. I tend to fall into both camps, so excuse me while I practice…
ahem
Cartooniverse, I enjoy reading your posts and I have a soft spot in my heart for men with facial hair.
???a guy???
Well… out of pure curiousity I had to check out your purported she-maleness in your web page pic. You look quite attractive and feminine from the neck up. What happened that caused this gender bending confusion? Some possibilities would be that:
1: You’re an amazon powerhouse from the neck down. Really, really muscular, dangerously, menacingly bulked up and intimidating?
2: You’ve got “man hands”.
3: You can sing Paul Robeson’s part in “Old Man River”.
4: You were picking your teeth with a polished curlew bill and the clerk didn’t like your 'tude and dissed you.
Ha, astro, you got it. I gotta stop chewing on that curlew bill! Seriously, I’m tall. When I was younger, I often felt unfeminine, in conflict with my height (how can a guy like an amazon like me?) and definitely not sexy. There is nothing small and delicate about me. Now that comment was more than twenty years ago and back then it bothered me to no end.
I have, since then, learned to embrace my femininity and sexiness with my man hands.

Hmmm… Okay, maybe not “weird” perceptions of sexy. Ummm…
I once heard (on a morning radio show) that the number one thing that men find incredibly NOT sexy is women who don’t like to reveal their bodies during sex. (Blankets, no lights, blindfolds, whatever.) That is me all the way.
Confidence is sexy. I’m not at all confident. I don’t have self-assurance, I don’t walk with my head held high and my shoulders back like I can handle anything. I don’t have self-esteem either, which is a huge turn-off. So I’ve heard, but I agree with it. I bet I look for the same things in men that men look for in women, minus breasts. And the things that I find sexy in men are things that I completely lack.
As for me being physically sexy, I have no idea. It depends on who you ask because one person might see the little freckle on my neck as a flaw while another person sees it as the cutest freckle in the world. I’ve been told that I’m NOT sexy, but “cute”. I was recently told that the fact that I appear sweet and innocent is sexy because “you just know there’s a wild side to it”. I’ve been told I have big, sexy eyes. Then I was told that I have “muddy” eyes and I’d look better if I got color contacts. Point being, it all depends.
So do you want my opinion? No, I don’t think I’m sexy. “Cute” might really be a better word, but I wouldn’t even go that far. I wouldn’t say I’m UGLY, but plain. And I’m not the type of person who really spends a lot of time on their appearance, simply because the hour (or whatever) that it would take me to “get ready” for something is an hour that would be better spent sleeping or playing with my nephew or hanging out with friends or posting to a message board. Overall, (based on days I’m happy with myself vs. days I’m not) I’d say it’s 60/40 with “unhappy days” on top. I could lose some weight and I really need to figure out what to do with my hair, but that’s not the point. It’s my attitude. Happier people, people who exude confidence, are sexier. In my opinion anyway, so take that as you will.
Yeah I know what you mean. My 14 year daughter complains about being 5"11 and how this has doomed her socially.
Me: But honey you’re a goddess! Like a fashion model!
DARY (disaffected angst ridden youth): I don’t want to be a goddess! I want to be smaller and “cute” and by the way Daddy fashion models are thin like toothpicks!
Me: Sigh! Oh sweetheart! You’re cuter than a speckled puppy but the “smaller” part is going to have to wait for the next incarnation and those fashion models… they have to live on cigarettes and cocaine so you’re not missing anything.
DARY: Grrrrrrr! You don’t understand! You never understand!
I guess I don’t. I always thought taller women were more attractive (I was married to a 6 foot tall one at one time) and dated several tall women prior to that and was shocked by how many really felt it stigmatized them as “mannish”. I know a lot more agressively “mannish” short(er) women than tall women. It’s interesting how powerful peer influence is in the way we view our self image.
… darn tried to get back to the OP subject but just missed. If only I was better at silky smooth segways.

I picked this unimaginative username because it’s the one I use most places. But I’m not sure I’ve ever seen someone refer to me with a feminine pronoun in a thread without having to be corrected first. 
Apparently I not only have a neuter username, I’m totally forgettable.
