Inspired by a thread that has moved to the Pit on body part disgust, a simple question: which body part of the opposite sex do you find _most_ attractive? To limit the number of items in my poll I am limiting this to heterosexual attractiveness. Please remember in any posts of “other” or with expositions to state your gender. Gay posters are free to post replies of course. I’m not disinterested just a bit lazy. No, I am not listing toenails as an option! Poll to follow. ---

Don’t think you need to limit this to heterosexuals… If it matters for some reason, you can ask respondents to identify their sexual preference in their written response. Also are you looking for sexually attractive or aesthetically attractive? ---

Its a tie between butt and thighs. ---

It seems to me a truely lazy person could have _included_ ALL sexual preference by omitting the “I’m a man/woman” part. ---

I chose boobs, but really it’s their personality/brain. ---

Sexually attractive. And “mind” is also by intent not an option. I would not assume that gays respond to body part sexual attractiveness the same as heterosexuals do in either gender’s case. Maybe they do, maybe not. So not limiting means another 14 items. No thank you. But not so lazy that I do not want to see what, if any differences there are between the sorts of answers men give and women do. It’s really what I am wondering about. [This link](https://www.drfelix.co.uk/most-attractive-body-parts/) shared once in the … inspirational … thread claimed some surprising (to me anyway) ones. I’m just wondering if our selective sampling concurs. ---

Other. I’m a man and it’s a tie between face (mostly her eyes) and butt. ---

Heterosexual man – I’m either going brain or the body as a whole. Since I assume you are talking visual attraction - body as a whole. And to be honest I’ve always been like this. I can’t remember a time when one trait or another really did something for me in and of itself. ---

I checked You have no imagination / other. Nope, not using this opportunity to say it’s all about her scintillating personality and brilliant mind. It mostly IS but that’s not a body part. (And body parts are nice, it’s just that I’m sort of a slut as far as my appreciation for female forms are concerned, making it the personality and mind that makes all the difference insofar as that’s where I get all picky and stuff). But yeah component of the body that draw my eye… it’s the front presentation from navel down to mid-thigh, ideally decorated in tight jeanery or other form-fitting fabric. [Like in this view](http://img211.imagevenue.com/aAfkjfp01fo1i-3735/loc864/712010881_fashion_model_sexy_casual_clothing_1717505_123_864lo.jpg). Yeah, those shapes. It’s possible that she has boobs, I haven’t really noticed. ---

It’s like the fourth thread in a little while with this sort of thing happening. I would urge the OP to ask for a thread closure, and try again in a less excluding fashion. ---

Anyway, the concept of picking one and only one body part, separated from the particular person. seems a bit weird to me. I can like a woman’s breasts, eyes, legs or ears, but I wouldn’t want to find either of those cling wrapped in my fridge. ---

The OP wants to know how heterosexual men and women are different but can’t be assed to be inclusive because cut and pasting is going to take another 30 seconds. Their opinions don’t matter anyway, right? ---

If limiting the number of poll options is a concern, which I get, maybe ignore the man/woman distinction, and instead sort by androphiles/gynephiles? Seems the more relevant distinction, assuming that the gender of the body being observed is more interesting than that of the observer. You’ll still miss out on those who swing both ways more or less equally, but I guess they’ll have to pick their favorite. ---
