Older women in heels and business suits. With pearls. The pearl necklace has to be there to finish off the look. There’s something about that type of woman that screams “Tear off my clothes and make me shed my inhibitions” to me. Stiletto heels work well with this look, too. The classy Fendi ones. Mmm, stilettos… …what were we talking about? Oh, fetishes. Yes. Older women and high heels. ---

Just a couple non-sexuals ones… Cool engineering, especially bridges. There’s this little counter-balanced bridge outside of Pac Bell Park. The first time I saw the park I was almost more fascinated with this little bridge than the stadium. 😛 Difficult math problems that are solved neat and tidy; elegantly. Ok… and women’s hip bones… ---

Really skinny rocker guys who have no butt. You know when the back of the jeans are just flat? I love that for some reason. Conversely, I also like really great quads and calves. Those guys always have butts. Short ,charming guys who dress well. I don’t know why I find that so much more attractive in a short guy than a tall guy. Philosophy majors. They have just the right amount of intellectual arrogance to be really attractive. I also love that tawny cocoa skin color that you see in Asian guys and Latinos. Maybe because I’m so pale, I find it mesmerizing. So, I guess my ideal guy would be a short, well built Asian or Latino guy who dresses well and was a philosophy major. 🙂 ---

Facial hair, especially stubble. Can not possibly ever get enough of rubbing a guy’s stubble. EYE CRINKLES! This is huge one for me. When a guy smiles and he has those major eye crinkles on the sides, that just does it for me, I don’t know why. A luscious bum. I guess I’m an “ass-girl”(?) Luckily the current S.O. has all three going for him. 🆒 OK, one more, I like it when a guy tries on my skirts, especially the short ones. ---

I have to go with Ghanima on the skirts, only I disagree about the short skirts. Long ones, down to the ankles in dark colours. One guy I knew dressed in them… mmmm and stubble, I love stubble on a guy because it feels sooo nice on the skin and leaves such nice marks. That too. I like being marked, not painfully just little lovebites or stubble burn… that melts me. I tried telling guys that I dated that I _liked_ it and they didn’t get it :rolleyes: (they later turned out to be bad in other ways too, but that was the first thing) ---

Women with glasses and no makeup in tee shirts and jeans. Cotton socks is an added bonus. Can you tell that I was an adolescent in the early '70s? I do like a good-looking man wearing only loose jeans–that crease between abdomen and hip is pretty nice if you go for that kind of thing. ---

Well manicured beard, enough hair on his head that I can get my fingers into, body hair (all over), wonderful, wonderful hands and fingers, a very muscular body with a slim torso - mmmmmmmmmm - gets me going every time!!! Actually, there is nothing about my guy that I **don’t** like. ---

Slim women in tight black mini-skirts and white Oxford shirts. > [@tadc](#): > > It’s not really a fetish in the sense that it’s entirely non-sexual (at least AFAIK), but I have a bizzare fascination with spinning things. > > Ceiling fans, helicopter blades, all the belt driven gizmos attached to a car engine… you get the idea. > > Weird? You bet. I have a similar one: devices with things moving in different directions at the same time.

> [@Shoshana](#): > > I do like a good-looking man wearing only loose jeans–that crease between abdomen and hip is pretty nice if you go for that kind of thing. As a matter of a fact I do. I like a unibrow. Unfortunately most guys who have them hate them and pluck them out. ☹ ---

Receding hairlines on middle aged guys. I’m thinking of that cop from Law and Order: SVU and Kevin Spacey. I’m only 21, so most guys I know aren’t middle aged and don’t have receding hairlines, but when I look at my boyfriend I can tell that when he’s 40 or so, he’ll fit right in. Of course, I didn’t knowingly date a guy who fit my fetish - I remember looking at him a couple of years into our relationship and realising - then for the rest of the day I was like this: 😃 ---

Especially if the car is a convertable with the top down, she is wearing sunglasses, and has long hair flowing in the wind. You’d have a field day here, up until recently, all cars have been stick shift! My fetish is a man in a dry-za-bone, with moleskins, work boots, acubra (cowboy type hat) and needing a shave. I have visions of being hauled off to the hay barn for a roll around! The SO, is currently looking for a suitable hat to complete the look, but way too half-hearted for my liking.
