    Interesting. Can you be turned on by a single feature or does the "totality of a lady" refer to the whole package. I find myself getting sucked in by a beautiful mouth or eyes or mind and the rest just fades away for a bit.

    I don't have a choice. My body decided to have curvy bust and hips and a smaller waist. So I shall choose to embrace them and continue to work to look supa sexy with them.

    I like both, but I will say it is not the body as much as how I feel when I talk to them. I get what I call "the buzz" , where it is like your whole body is humming with excitement; they can be tall, short, curvy, ripped, skinny, but if there's no "Buzz" there's no attraction

    More times than not, a lady's mind is what is the real drawing point for me, even more so than the physical.

    The "totality of a lady" is her mind, heart, and body. Everything that makes her the unique, wonderful woman that she is.

    In my opinion, we need to do our best to take care of our body and our health.

    If a man believes that the only way he can get a lady's attention is to focus on the physical, I believe he is selling himself short, as well as ladies in general.

    I completely agree with you Great Guy. I think anyone that concentrates only on the physical is letting so much go to waste. I believe that there is so much pressure for both men and women to present that perfect package. I love that with age comes wisdom and, for me, self love and the awareness that there is so much beauty in the world around me...and a great deal of it is in the small details. I have also found, in general, that those I have been with who were "perfect" were crappy lovers!!

    And all those "small details," which are really inner soulful choruses, are the things that, when experienced together, leave one short of breath and longing for more at the same time. Souls dancing and exercising together.

    I believe that both are good! A man can look hot both ways and a woman has to have a little curve. But whats inside the mind and heart is what matters :)

    You sound like a combination of enlightened and full of *kitten*, like you're posting from the pulpit.

    Don't mean to be rude or anything, but I think you could take it down a couple notches and still live up to your chosen name. :)

    "Don't mean to be rude or anything..." And you proceed to do just that.

    You may not agree with what I have said, but, that doesn't mean I am full of crap.

    I was not preaching from the pulpit. I was merely positing my opinion on the subject at hand. And when confronted, I explained further my reasoning and thought process.

    I haven't been rude to anyone on the forums, even though several have been rude to me.

    If I feel strongly about a subject and or believe I can be of some help, I am going to speak up. If my being honest and open about a subject in a respectful manner bothers some others, that is on them, in my opinion. I don't expect others to always agree with me. But, one thing I will not do, is be any less than who I am.

    I didn't mean to be rude, and I didn't say you were full of *kitten*, I said you *sounded* like it. But also half enlightened! There was a compliment in there!

    excessively pedantic, maybe?

    By any chance were you a women's studies major?




    I did not major in Women's Studies, although I do revel in interacting with them. :smile:

    Thank you for your compliment.

    I didn't mean it as an insult or a compliment, more just an observation. I used to know quite a few WS majors in college (ran in the same crowd) and some of them had trouble letting their guard down and sounded a bit like you do when you post.

    No need to be upset, please carry on BasicGreatGuy.
    Not upset at all, Miss Sunn

    Even though we disagreed on some things, I appreciated the discourse.

    Great discussion guys, I think it shows we all want to do something with our bodies, but also that it is important to appreciate and promote what you already have, as there are people out there who find us attractive, funny etc as we already are. :)

    What defines me personally is my character, values, what makes me, ME but my preference in self body image is more a body type than a certain weight, while I can appreciate and find attractive all the way from plus size curvy to petite athletic, I like to stay in the firm tummy soft curves everywhere else. I do want to continue to work on my legs and would love improvement elsewhere. My ideal body type and goal

    I just like a woman who's confident in her body. I know everyone has things they don't like about themselves but I like people who can say *kitten* it and just have fun.

    Curves for sure, seeing your rib cage is a turn off...

    I love curves. However sexiness comes from the inside to me.

    If I nhad to choose, I like a curvy girl. BUT it wouldn't be my first concern when meeting someone.
