There are several perfumes out there that overcome my ability to reason.

Also, a woman in a bathrobe or just a man’s button up shirt gets me going.

The smell of my own armpits. Spicy, intoxicating, generally RRrrrrrrrrr… Other bits of me smell nice, but my armpits are conveniently close to my nose.

I love a man with a big vocabulary. One time I was talking to a guy and he used “whence” in a sentence. Not “from whence,” “whence.” If he hadn’t been married I’d have been all over him.

Some posters on this board, I don’t remember who, use some great words. Somebody said “tractable” once…man, that was great.

Well a lady wearing a broad brimmed dress hat has always made me tractable.

Oh and then there is that fainting thing.  
and IMHO women in gereral are pretty weird but they turn me on.

What weird thing turns me on?

When a woman’s actually attracted to _me_.

Hey, it’s so rare it’s GOT to be weird, right?

Saxophone neckstraps on women. Its’ the same effect as the seltbelt/purse thing.

Yeah, I’m a band dork. Contrary to popular belief, none of my instruments have entered any offace of mine, even during band camp.

I don’t know what it is but Thigh High stockings are the bomb!  
Not nessecarily those huge holed fish net ones but a nice pair of regular light black or red or even purple. This conversation took place with my wife and she knows too…No wonder why she WON"T put them on. I had to have come up with my turn on BEFORE we got married!!!☹ See… we can’t win either way, whether we tell the truth or hide it!😛 Just kiddin’.  
I tried to figure out why there such a turn on and I guess it goes back to whats in them… a nice pair of legs!! Thick or thin but NOT fat.  
The best turn on however is a great massage!!!  
I once dated a girl whom I almost fell asleep on because she gave me a hand massage. She massaged one hand at a time. UNBELEIVABLE!!! She used two hands and massaged in between the thumb and fore finger( this spot has been known to be a pressure point and settles headaches when pinched). Then the palm and back of the hand. It’s very simple. Also the fingers as well. Ask any Masoose they’ll agree. It feels so good that at times is an awesome turn-on as well.

Sundresses.  
Yep. A nice sundress on a light summer day. The thin material it’s made of, (forgive me I’m not Bill Blass here) looks nice.  
I guess in some weird way they look like stylish dress slips? 😃 😛 🙂 Hey… think? There not too far from nighties either! Kidding aside the Sundress is a turn-on.

I love a man in uniform! 😃

Also, when your lover has his arms around you with his hands on your back kissing you on the neck and saying how sexy you are and how great you feel.  
If I’m not feeling sexy already, the right words turn me into a sex crazed kitten…

Good daddies are a wierd turn-on. Something about a man and his children…but they are mostly taken!

Fetishy story alert:

My friend is happily married with two little girls and one on the way. I run into him at WalMart with both girls having a Barbie-bitch fit. He picks up the 4 year old, swats her heartily on the butt and puts her down, sniveling, and he then glowers in the general direction of his older daughter and says in a firm voice “Who’s next?”  
My hand shoots into the air of its own accord and I blurt out “Me! ME! I’m next!”  
He laughed but I was, in that instant, sooooooooooo serious!  
sigh

– When I write lyrics to a song that come out right, that turns me on. Well, at least I get a warm fuzzy feeling only directly comparable in power to arousal.

– by the same token. the Lord of the Rings movie was almost as good as sex. And it lasted longer!

When it comes to MEN I admire/like a great deal, it turns me on to imagine them driving a car and seeing them do so. 😃

Sex scenes between couples, especially same sexed ones. Preferably men.  
Men in skirts/kilts and men/women in uniform. 🙂

Certain men’s lips, eyes, hands and feet.
