Oh ya, slightly yellow teeth. They’re like fangs––RAWR! ---

Loving the body hair. If I’m out with a guy and I notice hairy arms, I get all giddy at the idea of him having a hairy chest. Probably the thing that turns me on the most, whereas other gals I know will be like, “Dude, you’re fucking Bigfoot?” ---

I love [receding](http://i234.photobucket.com/albums/ee136/suwarnaadi/StingSpikyHairstyle.jpg) [hairlines](http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_udoos3KCSL8/TAQMElQz8cI/AAAAAAAAB9w/EH9qdeiQPMk/s1600/Jude-Law.jpg). They make [hot](http://www.wearefreshfish.com/blogg/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/javier-bardem.jpg) [guys](http://static.tvguide.com/MediaBin/Content/110711/News/3_wed/110713kal-penn1.jpg) that much [hotter](http://www.thecinemasource.com/moviesdb/images/Jet_Li%20-%202%20-%20Fearless.jpg). It seems most guys tend to shave their heads once it really starts receding - but that’s cool with me, too. Also, really lanky, skinny guys, like [Lance Reddick](http://cdn.fringebloggers.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/fbbroyles.jpg) and [Eric Monjoin](http://theinspirationroom.com/daily/commercials/2010/12/heineken-the-entrance.jpg) from the Heineken commercial. Or Obama! Hey, he’s got a receding hairline, too… hmm… And I dig the body hair, too, especially a hairy chest. Not big on back hair, but I’ll take it. ---

I really love guys with wonky teeth. They have to be clean and I’m not talking super-extreme-out-of-whack, but snaggly or crooked? Yes, please! ---

As a straight guy, I like almost all the things the other straight guys have brought up. Generally, I like a woman to have flaws – even several at once. Big nose? Belly? Overweight? Glasses? Acne? All of that can fit into the gestalt of an attractive woman. Another vote for muscular legs – the kind a lot of short, overweight girls tend to have. On the other side of the spectrum, I also like veiny hands and feet. Veiny arms, too, if a woman is lean and athletic enough. ---

There are certain types of women whom I find attractive if they don’t shave anything. Most women could not make this work; I guess she has to be a young, already attractive but typically in some non-standard way, free-spirit hippie type. ---

Petite girls with small or non-existant breasts do it for me. And a girl in pregnancy sends me howling, go figure. ---

There’s a local electronics store that hit on the idea of adding a furniture store next door - so the guys go look at gadgets and women go look at furniture. Anyway, they have a radio ad that includes: ‘Guys, if you want a sleepover, ditch the Star Wars bedsheets. Get rid of the Chewbacca pillowcases. Go to [attached furniture store].’ A guy who is confident enough to keep his (clean) geek bedding on is much more sexy than a guy who buys designer linens to impress a girl. Geekiness is hot! ---

Body hair - lots of thick, curly body hair. Head hair optional, but facial hair (well-groomed) is a must as well. Especially good on a stocky body of average or less height. ---

Did you ever have a crush on someone, and you knew they had _no idea_? Think about that for a minute, and then realize that there’s every possibility that someone is crushing on you (or has in the past) and you will never know it. But if you did, it would blow your mind. 😃 Though not necessarily in a good way. ---
