Boobs in proportion to the rest of her body. Yep, you betcha.

I appreciate both, but I’ve always been more of a breast man.

Yes, I find it very disconcerting when they don’t go all the way up to the ass, and there’s this blank space mid-thigh. 😃

I used to be primarily a boob man, but then over the last few years I’ve learned to appreciate the splendour of an elegant pair of legs. This is if they’re clothed. If they’re naked, boobs, no question.

But on the other hand, naked women have my attention with anything - shoulders and the curve of a hip can be astoundingly erotic.

Legs, all the way. Boobs are so far down the list.

Although I’ve come to appreciate legs, since they’re on display so much more frequently. Given equal access, however, I go for the boobs.

I’m with Dervorin,  
If clothed, then the legs are a better appealing factor.

If unclothed, then the boobs are of higher importance.

Aha! Another belly fan! But boobs are a close second to that, and definitely better than legs.

From a gay girl perspective, I rarely notice legs, so would put myself down as a boob girl, although bums attract my attention the most. My girlfriend, on the other hand, is legs legs legs all the way

Boobs are almost universally good. Legs are not universally good. Ergo, I am forced to devote more of my attention to legs than to boobs, when evaluating specimens for suitability.

I guess legs, because I really like my women fit and kind of muscular. But the ultimate?

Shoulders. Mmmmmm.

Some guys like big boobs. I believe in the old saw, Anything more than an armful is a waste.
