    My biggest one is the way a guy talks. Not the accent or anything, how he moves his mouth. Some guys I could watch talk for hours.

    what if he has a lisp? lol


    i'd have to say nice arms :)

    Oh, my goodness! I LOVE well-defined arms! I love it when I can see the definition of both the biceps and the triceps at the same time. DROOL!!! :love:

    This is a link to what I'm talking about (I'm at work...can't use photobucket right now):

    P.S. With all the drama he's been involved in lately, I've got Jeremy Shockey on the brain. LOL

    Tattooed sleeves and neck
    When a guy (my husband especially) lets a cigarette hang between his lips (I hate smoking but it looks sexy)
    A nice pair of pants and a dress shirt with suspenders. I dunno why, I just wanna snap them. :)
    Arm and hand vains when they stick up under the skin
  • When a lady can sport a baseball cap with confidence...now that is sexy!

    Tattoos, Strong arms and backs, LIPS are a big thing for me, cologne, and nice fitting jeans.

    I'm waaay more attracted to someone once I see integrity in their actions and decisions...

    BUT I know that's not what you're looking for :) so forearms...I don't know why, but when a guy has chiseled forearms, I find it attractive.

    Also, when he smells nice - not like girly nice - manly nice.

    This is the most depressing thread I've read yet on MFP. It seems that women are more cliche about their turn-ons than I thought. It guess it's no wonder that the covers of romance novels look the way they do.

    In most ways, I'm pretty much the opposite of the consensus here:

    -My hands are not rough and are relatively small
    -I don't like working on cars and hate getting my hands dirty
    -I have no tattoos and will never have any
    -I have a white-colllar tech job where getting dirty is not involved
    -I'm 5'11", so I just miss the whole 6' and over thing
    -I don't wear wife-beaters
    -The only time I really sweat is when I workout
    -I hate country music
    -I drive a Ford Focus and wouldn't consider/need a pickup truck
    -I'm painfully shy and come close to selective mutism when talking to an attractive girl, though it's gotten better with age
    -I have no gray hair and won't likely have any for a long time (my mom is 68 and just now is starting to get gray hairs)

    I do have some things going for me that conform with the consensus:

    -I have a cleft chin
    -I wear Eternity cologne from time to time
    -I have dimples when I smile
    -I have all of my hair
    -I have continuous stubble because I hate to shave and I like how it looks
    -I'm not metro
    -I'm not a pushover by any means. I'm extremely strong-willed.
    -I have other endowments of a private nature that aren't fit for public discussion, but lets just say they border on super powers

    It's amazing that I've even had a date in my life. Thank goodness there are some geek lovers out there. It just seems that few of them come to MFP.

    As for my silly attractions:

    -Intelligence. A smart girl bumps her hotness level up five points. Sometimes I'll watch Jeopardy and there will be an reasonably attractive woman on there. I'm usually smitten.
    -Sense of humor. Another huge turn-on.
    -Braces. Since I was a kid I've always thought braces were cute. Still do.
    -A really cute pony tail is a big turn-on
    -Like other guys, I like girls who can pull off the ball cap look
    -Glasses. Not hipster oversize glasses but normal ones
    -A nice butt....big or small it just has to be there and have some shape. Some girls who are otherwise in shape and attractive have flat, shapeless butts. This is a deal-breaker.
    -Sun dresses. They accentuate everything I love about women.
    -A girl who plays with her hair while waiting at a stop light
    -Geekiness. I love me some female geeks. My ideal girl is Kari Byron on Mythbusters.
    -Girl-next-doorness if that's a word, and I'm pretty sure it's not

    You were discouraged by this thread and then you go on to participate in it by stating your preferences? And low and behold they're just as cliched!!!!

    Everyone has things they like and things they don't like. Cliche or not that's just how it is.

    Things that I absolutely love about my favorite dork:

    His nerdy sense of humor.

    The way he plays the guitar so intently.

    The way he could make me laugh, even on my sh!ttiest days.

    How passionate he is about his interests and goals.

    The way he is rough, yet gentle when he grabs me.

    His geeky I.T. speak

    How incredibly witty he is

    How he doesn't always let me get my way

    How he can grab me with just one hand

    Everyone has things they like and things they don't like. Cliche or not that's just how it is.

    Um...they aren't the classic turn-ons that populate romance novels, like most of the females on here. A lot of guys are intimidated by intelligence. A lot of guys don't like "geekiness". A lot of guys don't like girls with glasses. A lot of guys prefer vamps over girl-next-doors. Hardly cliche. Cliche for guys would be "large boobs, small waist, long hair, size 0, high soft voice, tan skin, submissive personality, hot in the bedroom" etc.

    My depression comes from the lack of diversity across all of the responses, not in any one response.

    The way a guys' hair curls up on the nape of his neck
    T-shirts with nice shoulders underneath
    Humour, intelligence, sarcasm, wit
    Walking towards a man you see as attractive--you look at him just as you're about to pass and catch him looking at you,
    And my personal fave...watching men play hockey...:wink:

    The list you posted is what I hear every single guy ever say he likes in a woman. Just sayin! And if you doubt me, pick up any magazine ever that asks men what they like and you will see at least one of the items you listed as your preference. :)

    Dark haired guys ooft! Sort of like the tall, dark and handsome thang going on! ;) haha
    A guy that's moderately tall too. Quite rugged...I don't like for a guy to be too clean shaven.. ;D

    BUT most importantly? Of course the biggest turn on would be intelligence. :')
