A man wearing low cut blue jeans and nothing else is the sexiest thing I’ve ever seen.

I like to see my boyfriend naked 🙂  
I think he’s yummy, and I can’t keep my hands off him. And I like EVERY part of him, scrotum et al (are you kidding, it’s one of the nicest bits!!)

Ofcourse, he disagrees with me, says that women are a lot better designed to appear naked 🙂

I think it’s just the way women and men experience sex or lust. With men, the sexual urgew is linked to the optical nerve, so men will get more turned on than women by something they see, while women get more aroused by suggestions, and like being seduced…

When I was pretty young and a very sheltered, petite delicate flower, I started taking Life Drawing classes. (Drawing nude models.) It was a shock for me, to see all those naked people. And it wasn’t just beautiful young models, but old creaky wrinkly models. But I soon got used to it. And I saw the body (in all variations and ages) to be beautiful. It is. It’s beautiful to draw. (Hey! I’m an artist!)

I am quite the Life Drawing fan so I’ve taken many Life Drawing classes throughout the years. It has become no big deal to see strangers strip naked in front of me. Of course, it is in a non-sexual context. We are all there to draw, and drawing the human form is difficult (drawing people is often considered the most challenging subject for artists).

When I was still quite young, I remember telling a male bus driver (I was riding the bus) about my Life Drawing class. I don’t remember why I told him, I guess he was asking me about the sketchbook I was lugging, or something. He seemed rather shocked that I was taking Life Drawing (a lot of people are uncomfortable with the idea). He said, “What do you do when you go to Chippendales? Get bored?” I forget how I answered. But yeah, in a way, nudity has taken on a different meaning to me. But not in a bad way. The nude body is beautiful. And I have stacks and stacks of sketchbooks of nude drawings proving that. 🙂

It honestly depends on the man. There are a few men that I would never ever ever in a million years want to see unclothed. But there are a lot of men (yes, many many, I’m single and a repressed sex maniac) that I would absolutely LOVE to see naked. (Any volunteers? No? Okay.)

As for the scrotum thing, I don’t think it’s necessarily a bad or ugly thing. The way I looked at the Pit thread about it was that the revulsion is not at seeing the scrotum itself, but as suddenly having a view of someone else’s scrotum thrust upon you in public, when it could very well be the scrotum of one of those people you just never ever ever want to see naked. So it’s not the scrotum itself, it’s the scrotum-owner and the time and place of the scrotum-viewing.

hehe… scrotum-viewing. That’s amusing for some reason.

But, anyway, in general, naked man = very good thing. Naked man in my bedroom who wants me = even better, but there’s been quite a lack of them lately.

I used to live with a guy (somewhat boyfriend wise) and he would walm around naked at times after a bath(we were on the 7th floor so no one could see in).  
It was totally boring to me.  
I dunno, I guess I’d have to have a thing for a guy for him to look nice naked, just any model (even with a “perfect” body wouldn’t DO anything for me if I didn’t like him anyway.  
Does that make sense?  
course I wouldn’t mind seeing David Blaine naked, but thats jsut me

Depends on the situation.

If I knew it would be embarassing for the naked guy, then no. Even if he was really hot.

But if everyone involved is happy and informed, I’m happy to participate. (I’m a nudist at heart.)

I think that Lobsang’s negative feelings regarding hairy vaginas refers to ones that need a comb, curling iron, and maybe some hairspray or mousse …

Being a guy I have always kinda been annoyed that women don’t like to look at us as much as we like to look at them. I wonder how much of this comes from the individual, how much from women just not being as visually stimulated as men, and how much from society. We grow up with the female body being considered a work of art and the male form a taboo to be covered up.

Well… just a thought, but could it be that women can generally get a naked man anytime they want it and men do not have the same ability?

What is that quote (I am sure the wording is wrong, but the meaning is right):

“Women look good in all stages of undress, men in none”

I think of this whenever I see my wife getting ready for a work day (hubba, hubba) compared to me in my black over-the-calf socks, boxers, t-shirt and button-down, getting ready to pull on my pants. Hummmm-baby, am I one sexy-looking corporate drone!

I like seeing naked men, almost as much as I like seeing men dressed all slutty. Yow.

(And I like scrota. Ain’t nothin’ wrong with scrota.)

I’ve always wondered if I’m weird, but I am not attracted to men’s bodies. I like going to bed with men, sure, but I don’t get turned on by their bodies. Naked, or when dressed, either.

I think for me it’s more about the overall picture. I can be attracted to a man overall without particularly getting excited about different sections of his body, or seeing his naked body. I don’t catch myself thinking, “nice ass” or “nice legs” or anything like that. It’s the overall picture that either turns me on or off. (His hair, his face, his height, his build, his character and personality: it’s all a factor. And he doesn’t have to be built like a model, or meet a narrow set of preferences. I’ve found myself attracted to all sorts of men.)

I like men naked but I think they’re sexier when partially dressed. I’m not a big fan of over-exposure…_something_ should be left to the imagination.

Scrotums? Eh. I’m not repulsed but I can definitely find better things to look at.
