**SPOOFE** definitely with the glasses.

I just realized that at least 80% of the guys I dated had glasses. Mr LunaSea wears glasses also. I never really thought about it. Weird.

The only glasses I really like on men are the ones that match their hair. Black hair and gold glasses look odd. Blonds and black glasses look like they aren’t even trying.

It all depends on the guy. One of my guy friends looked so sweetly adorable in glasses and I was really surprised when he stopped wearing them, I’m more used to it now but I loved him with glasses, he has the prettiest blue eyes.Some guys just don’t look right with glasses though. It all depends on the guy and whether he can pull it off or not.

Oh yes, I like men who wear glasses. I like glasses very much. (As long as they are not those really ugly glasses with large squarish metal frames that Boy Scout leaders always seem to wear…) Alas, my dear husband has 20/20 vision.

p.s. Spoofe, yer a cutie!

It’s hard for a guy to look good in the winter in glasses. They continually steam up or frost up and you squint through them. I only use them to read and drive, not indoors with company.

How sexy/handsome a man looks wearing a pair of glasses is directly proportionate to how stylish the glasses look, period.

Forget the clunky rectangular Stephen King glasses. Today’s style is towards the smaller, rectangular glasses with very thin frames, or no frames around the bottom of the glass portion. Hmmm… kind of like the pair Obfusciatrist wears… !!

Yeah. Winter sux, in more ways than one, for people who wear glasses. Personally I’ve gotten used to the whole fogging-defogging thing, it only takes a minute, and it’s no problem if you trust your feet (excuse me, I work in a garage where the floor is 95% covered in grease). For myself, my glasses have become part of my lifestyle, and I wouldn’t know what to do without them (certainly not see).
