Oh, GOD, yes. We just had a choir concert Tuesday night, the first of the semester. And all the guys looked just sexy as hell in their tuxes. (Us women were wearing our 100% Guaranteed Ugly Itchy Polyester Dresses From Hell.) Especially Jeff, who is the Impossibly Perfect Guy to begin with…he looked even BETTER than usual.

Tygr, you’re making me blush! 
TN*Hippie: Hair is sexy. No hair is sexy. Gray hair is sexy. Curly hair is sexy. Straight hair is sexy. Long, short, blond, brown, red, black…it’s all sexy (although will profess a bit of a preference for dark hair, with some white/gray salt & peppering going on. Hoooooo buddy, makes me weak!)
But really, I just like hair. Or no hair. Doesn’t much matter. The scalp is simply a covering for the brain underneath.
Thanks for the answers, Persephone, however inconclusive they may be.
Nobody else is going to respond?
Curious,
TN*hippie
I have seen long curly hair on guys that looks absolutely gorgeous and long curly hair on guys that looked really, really icky.
Like a lot of things, it works for some men and doesn’t work for others. I have seen a picture of you and it DEFINITELY works! 
I’m partial to longer hair. Gives me something to grab onto and I love to play with it; run my finger through it, brush it, etc… Dark, wavy, clean (has to be clean) hair is a particular favorite. Any guy I see with long hair gets a second look (or third or fourth…).
However, I find Patrick Stewart, Jerry Doyle and Fiver, to name a few, very sexy and they’re bald as cue balls. Not everybody can pull off the bald look, but those that can rowl! ::insert leering smilie here::
Thinning hair. Even a bald spot. Yeah!!
Oh…and the nice, muscular guy with a little bit of a tummy. The kind of guy who got his muscles carrying kids around and 50 pound sacks of cat litter, not lifting weights at the gym.
Hoo yeah!

According to all this, I should be a pretty hot commodity. Well, I dunno. Guess it doesn’t take many negative aspects to quickly override the quirky positives. Let’s do the list, quick-like.
Strong hits:
Greying hair, Good with kids, Good at Trivial Pursuit, Able to parallel park, Raise one eyebrow (out of a recent survey of 14 persons in one room, mine was the only solo flyer. I ended up looking like a freak), **Chest hair, Useful with hands **(I repair sterilizers and hydraulic surgical tables for a living), Sarcastic wit, Collarbones, Short (spikable) hair, Accents (go ahead, pick one, I can do virtually all of them - not a bit of one in my usual patter), Will eat anything without complaint, “Flexible”, Tux-to-bluejeans attire, Cleft chin, Singing ability.
Good enough for starters?
Qualified hits:
Cat ownership: It’s up to you. See “flexible” above.
Calves: Good enough to outrun/skate/bike your ass, but not suitable for framing.
Uniform: Usedta did. Plenty o’ pictures around!
Cooking skills: “I can cook. Just give me a few extra hours and don’t watch.” (Thanx to Strainger)
Moustache/beard: Any and/or all the above. Equally unmemorable in any configuration.
A gig of RAM: Well, only a half right now, but I’ve definitely got the geek gene.
Things that just won’t be happening:
Smoking, Being an asshole when necessary, Balding, Broad Shoulders/muscles (I’m an ectomorph, thru and thru), Glasses, Hats, Boots (Well, occasionally hiking type), Blood on my face.
The downside, the Achilles’ heel, the thing that stands between me and a life of eternal happiness, is a combination of apathy and near-paralytic shyness. If placed in a social situation, I can adapt reasonably well (see comments about me in the latest HouDope thread). But unless there’s some REALLY overwhelming need to, I have a hard time getting the ladies’ attention. Too scared, etc. As Billy Joel said on Glass Houses, “I really wish I was less of a thinking man, and more a fool who’s not afraid of rejection.”
So, howmIdoin’? Any takers?
(Oh, since I just got it completed, here’s some visuals and other insights to go with the above.)
::checks out link::
Whoa! You’re a babe!
So Dave, how YOU doing?
. . . gone to check the list of those attending the LA Dopefest in a couple of weeks.
Short --almost military short— black hair. Aviator sunglasses.
A guy wearing beat-up jeans, a faded T-shirt, crummy sneakers (no socks), and an expensive watch goes a long way with me, too… but he’s gotta be hot to start with.
I got Arden AND Diane to notice me, in one post? After all this time? Fuck, what’d I say? [sub]:: rereads posts furiously… She said I’m a babe!::[/sub]
I’m doin’ pretty good, Diane. Sorry, no entry in the LA events for me. See how I cleverly mention the HOUdope above? In case there’s any newcomers to the area/boards… y’know. Just as a public service.
Arden Ranger:
You know, if you keep up with this sort of comment, you’re going to give me a big head.
You say that like it’s a bad thing.

Oh yeah, single…check.
I suppose that might have more to do with me not being actually at home, rather on extended assignment and refraining from relationships here.
<sigh>
Well, I thought a list consisting of only the words “Is thinksnow” would do little towards the cause of Fighting Ignorance, seeing as how everyone already knows how sexy that is.
Ah, thinksnow, you drive me mad with desire.
But, alas, I recall reading somewhere aruond here what you considered sexy in a woman and I’m not your type.
I shall have to continue desiring you from a afar, knowing that I will never be good enough.
weeps
Juniper, you are a doll and, IIRC, we have some unfinished [sub]massage[/sub] business.
Arden, I don’t think I’ve ever posted what I find attractive in a woman. I may have commented or agreed with someone elses opinion, but I’ve certainly never made a “wouldn’t touch her if you paid me” list. I have…eclectic taste. You might be surprised.
BigGiantHead - you are sexy as hell. S-E-X-Y!
SEXY!
Now go stop being single. I promise you won’t have to work very hard at it.
I’m shameless.
Oh yeah, I am ALL over this.
A guy who can quote MST3K rocks my socks in a way that no GQ boy ever could.
Messy hair gets me off too. Its very strange… but that boy from Goo Goo Dolls in the Iris video… rreeeeeooowwww
I also have a thing for skinny guys with a belly. Not a huge belly… but a definite pooch. Soft and squishy… pant pant pant
Guys with toys, particularly action figures… but not a stuffy collector… I want a guy who PLAYS with his toys!!
Boys who like and sing along to pop punk/emo crap but can still groove on an Eagles song or slow dance to Billie HOliday and dance around like a moron to Reel Big Fish do it for me.
A willingness to embarrass ones self for my amusement. Let me put you on a leash and walk you around a mall for a couple of hours… Sit and Stay on command and try to hump my leg in front of Imaginarium and I promise you getting kicked out of said mall will be the start of something beautiful. =)
I’m also a total goofball for a guy with lotsa bumper stickers on his car. Nihilists, Anarchists, boys with far fetched plans to overthrow and instate their own government seem to draw me in like a moth to a flame.
And the more well read he is, the better.
Obscure literature, quantum physics, cult classics, rreeeow…rrrrreow… Lovecraft, Illuminatus, House of Leaves…
Read to me!!!
=)
Lawdy, lawdy.
