I’m with **tremorviolet** when it comes to rowers. Their bodies…Jeebus. -Rower/Swimmer bodies (I love the lean muscled look) -Slightly Androgynous -Long fingers -Muscial ability (I don’t mean having your CD collection memorized) -Good teeth -Floppy hair (That Hugh Grant/Julian Sands Public School Hair that keeps getting in their eyes) -Brit/N.I./Irish Accents (guh) -Standoffish but really just a little bit shy and most important of all -Intelligence. A well read man who is smart enough to have his own opinions and be able to back them up, is a huge turn on. I’ve dated Actors, Models and fellas that would pass for Comic Book Guy’s cousin. Some mind numbingly beautiful, some not so much but they were all very intelligent. Whoever said that the brain was a sex organ was absolutely right. As to an actual fetish? Ermm, how about guys who like half-asian girls with nice racks? 😃 Though I really do lurve expensive, slightly trashy lingerie. Agent Provocateur is a great example. ---

A girl who knows how to link properly is also a turn on. :rolleyes: Agent Provocateur ---

Fetish? The closest I’ve got is, big, muscular, tree trunk olympic power lifter/speed skater legs. Whip me, beat me, make me write bad checks. I’m weak for good legs. Green eyes are close to a fetish, but more of a really big turn-on. Turn-ons belong in a different thread I guess. But if you have green eyes, truly green eyes, I’m weak in your hands. You could get away with things I bet you have no idea you could get away with. Male or female. ---

There is something I find _very sexy_ about how women look wearing certain types of shoes. For instance, Reebok Freestyle high top shoes. I don’t know what it is. Maybe I don’t want to know. But oh, man… OK, stop daydreaming, hit Submit. ---

Within 12 if she won. here I am! I even wear glasses 😉 I’ve got a thing for nerds…talk literary to me, baby! that and hair pulling, hair pulling is EXTREMELY hot. I also find certain foods, like sushi, to be really sensual. Give me sushi and a glass of wine or saki, and I’ll pretty much be putty in your hands ---

If any of you care to shed some light on this, please do. I really have no idea why…my hair is fairly short (a little less than chin length), so it’s easy to grab 🙂 I just like the way it feels, I guess, as long as it’s not too hard. Maybe it has something to do with men dragging us around by our hair as cavemen 😃 ---

Again, not so much fetishes as things that turn me on… - Asian or half-Asian women - Capris with heels - Painted finger- and toenails - Glasses that aren’t meant to be sexy (they lose their flair when it’s intentional… what can I say?) ---

Biting, hair pulling, spanking, deep massage (me as recipient), role-playing, rough sex, and fellatio. I love long hair on men and five o’clock shadow. YUM!! If a guy can kiss, I melt… _oh la la_! ---

They have to chose sex over the video games though. Nothing more annoying than wanting to do it and your stupid boyfriend won’t turn away from the game. > > Long hair - should-length being the ideal.

Ranchoth: Get thee to a Renfaire! If I’m not wrong, they’re run by the Society for Creative Anachronism (SCA), but a guy I work with says they often call themselves the Society of Consenting Adults. There should be at least a few armored women there; if not, then at least a few in those tight, tight bodices. ---

I like women with: Long, straight hair down the back, preferably brunette or red Wide hips, large breasts and a plump ass (in other words, I like 'em big) Freckles Glasses Blue jeans ---

There should be at least a few armored women there; if not, then at least a few in those tight, tight bodices. SCA events and Rennfaires are two vastly different things. You’ll likely not see too many ladies in armor at a RennFaire, but you will see way tight bodices. At an SCA event, you’ll see plenty of both! AFAIK, some folks do call it the Society of Consenting Adults. I’ve seen and heard of some pretty freaky stuff. and as for the topic? I’ll have to second just about everything **SanguineSpider** said minus the role-playing (I can do it, but it really doesn’t DO it for me). The biting, spanking, rough sex, hair pulling, dirty-talk…yep, that’s ALL good. FaerieBeth, who has plenty of tight bodices, but no armor. ---

Things I like in a guy: Solid build–NOT a muscleman, but someone with some meat on his bones–a little overweight is ok Beards–light ones though, I don’t go for the ZZ Top look What drives me wild during sex: a little bit of begging. Tease me and then make me ask for more and I go wild. One ex took it too far–after literally twenty minutes of begging I’d just say "You know what? Never mind. " and then he’d whine for the rest of the night “But you said you wanted me to make you beg!” It’s not sexy when it starts to take on a “Are we there yet?” tone. ---

Thanks, **FaerieBeth**. Might have to go to one of those SCA events myself, if they ever have one within 100 miles or so. I’ve never had the opportunity to, but I’d like to tie a girl up sometime. I’ve read up on BDSM, and my current wallpaper is a nice diagram of a self-bondage technique. “You can even wear clothes over it, and nobody will be able to tell it’s there!” ---

Let’s see… Redheads, definitely (I’m one myself) Blondes, Small breasts (like in the Denis Leary joke - “I got my face next to a tit!”) Feet, not in the kinky way but women’s feet look _soooo_ nice. Legs are my main thing, a nice pair of legs’ll set me right off. ummm, walking around naked in nothing except your shirt. OHH bonus points. Bi-girls, what can I say? I have a friend who’s bi and there’s nothing between us but when she going on about her “adventures” man I just double-take for a second and think, “Ohhh yeah” like the Ferris Beuller song. ---
