Going strictly on the physical stuff I gotta say I agree entirely with Guano’s first post, and would add eyeglasses. ## Don’t ask me why, but this is one guy who _does_ make passes at girls who wear glasses. ‘They couldn’t hit an Elephant from this dist…!’ Last words of General John Sedgwick ---

Men in tuxedoes. Men in boxer shorts, especially cartoon boxers. Men in tuxedoes with cartoon boxers underneath. Being kissed on the neck just below the ear. Black, purple, or dark blue nail polish on men. Bondage. Just thinking about being tied up gets me going. Being hugged from behind with arms around my stomach. Snuggling. Actually, those last two aren’t really turn-ons so much, just something I enjoy a whole lot. Skydiving, fighter jets, explosions, action movies…anything that gets my adrenaline going. ---

The biggest turn-on for me? Feeling knees clamp down on both sides of my head, as my partner is so excited by what I’m doing down there with my tongue and hands that she cannot handle the pleasure anymore and makes me stop. And then, I do it for a few more minutes anyway… Sorry if this is one of those cases of “Too much information…”! * * * Yer pal, Satan ---

Okay, I’m fucking weird, but here goes. Women wearing my clothes. If someone talks very near to my ear, or worse, rests their chin on mh shoulder when talking, I have to have a lie down. I’ve recently discovered that just a hint of drawl is, quite frankly, fucking awesome. Women in cutoffs and oversized sweatshirts, and ballcaps (especially ballcaps). And, chauvinistically, big breasts. * * * And the problem with small furry animals in corners is that, just occasionally, one of them’s a mongoose. Terry Pratchett, _Witches Abroad_ ---

> [@](#): > > Don’t ask me why, but this is one guy who does make passes at girls who wear glasses. Me too! But not sunglasses; just regular ol’ eyewear (curse the contact lens and laser surgery movements! :)) I also like shortish women who are soft in all the right places. I don’t find muscle definition attractive on a woman, nor do I want to be able to see ribs and hip bones. Perfect breasts? B-cup with perky nipples. ---

Physical things: overalls (It has already been mentioned) fat men hairy backs Santa Claus facial hair genuine smiles exposed shoulders but still wearing a shirt on a man other things: laughter tickling wrestling a good flirt (entails getting the other person to notice you and then a subtle eyebrow movement or wink. It is best when you don’t notice it right away) massaging knowing that the person you are with is the one that you want to spend the rest of your life with. There are many others. ## HUGS!

Oooooo ooooooo ohoohohohohooohhhhhhhhhh !!! ## I forgot to mention that girls who are very slightly cross-eyed (so we’re not talking Jean-Paul Sartre now, just a slight cross) are incredibly sexy !! My girlfriend gets a little cross-eyed when she’s really tired, and I’m all over her then. Trouble is, when she’s really tired, she only wants to go to bed to SLEEP 🙂 Coldfire * * * “You know how complex women are” - Neil Peart, Rush (1993) ---

I was born in WV, and I get a little bit of it back when I’m tired or talking to my family. I love accents too, even Southern (which most Northerners think is a sign of a lack of education). > [@](#): > > Women in cutoffs and oversized sweatshirts, and ballcaps (especially ballcaps). You just described my favorite mode of dressing around the house. [/quote] And, chauvinistically, big breasts. [/quote] Yep, have those too. Flyp, I must say, I’m very glad you don’t live anywhere near me. After this post, I may have just had to schedule a meeting, because it seems like I’m your stereotypical dream woman, and you remind me of my favorite ex-boyfriend.
