• Perfectly tailored suits and fresh-pressed preppy clothes
• When the sideburns connect to the goatee
• Straight, white teeth and thick lips
• Athleticism
• Swagger
• A juicy booty ;)

Scandia 07-31-2008 06:49 PM

- blond hair, blue eyes, blonde lashes, fair skin, and other Nordic traits
- lean build with everything proportionate
- dresses well and has good hygiene
- good teeth. They do not have to be perfectly straight, but nothing that can be noticed from far away.
- pronounces every word properly. Certain accents turn me off due to the poor pronunciation (this is more in Spanish than in English).
- big vocabulary with as little profanity/vulgarity as possible
- kindness and consideration
- enthusiasm...but over the top excitedness can lead to incompatibility
- ambition and motivation
- spirituality

I just had an experience today...and it was not prompted by my husband. :(

One of my coworkers was translating a document into Creole to bring to me for graphic design. He told me how it took him a while because he was carefully translating the meaning instead of doing it word for word.

I had a flutter in my heart momentarily, because big brains turn me on.

...so does competence.

Athletic
Social
Adventurous
Humorous
Intelligence, but not being a know-it-all
Tallish
Artistic look
I've been attracted to all races and shades, but being "brown" is a bonus...hispanic, arabic, south asian YUM!

PrettyBoy 08-01-2008 03:51 AM

ETA: I had to change mine up a little bit, because it was turning into more of a personal preference list. Turn ons and personal preferences are different.

Nice feet with an arch (no flat feet), smooth nice shaved legs (no cankles) sheer nylon stockings, black, white, or blue tights, long hair (no weave) nice shapely butt, but if it's flat I'm good with that, just as long as she's got nice feet and legs. Nice smell (good personal hygiene) Laughs a lot (silly), nice hands (no fake nails) nice feet, nice feet, nice feet, nice feet....pretty toes. Love me some pretty feet on a woman..lawd have mercy, I melt.:D She's gotta have that, or we'll just have to be friends or something. I like it when she wears flats too, with tights, or stockings. Leggings are a turn on too.

Saving the best for last. When she crosses her leg, and subconsciously dangles her shoe from her toes.
Damn that's sexy! M M M...Lawd have mercy!!!:D

The end.

scbelle 08-01-2008 04:08 AM

A man who's comfortable with me being me

jet black hair

good manners

5'5 or taller

boy-next-door type ( I like them on the nerdy side)

cheerfulgreek 08-02-2008 01:24 AM

^^^^ Yep. I pretty much like what you like lol.:p

I'm a little over 5' 6" and a half, so taller than me, but not over 6ft.
Well dressed
The boy next door look and I love hot guys with glasses. The round frameless ones are so sexy to me
Very handsome face
Lips
When he wears cuff links, nice ties, tab collar shirts, and the suspenders that button on the inside of his pants (not sure what those are called) with his suits. That's so hot
Takes pride in the way he dresses
Yes, I know this is weird, but when he orders his food from the menu, especially if it's somewhere formal.
Confidence, cocky, but at the same time very humble

PhoenixAzul 08-02-2008 08:37 AM

-guys in chuck taylors
-tattoos (only well done tattoos...fake tribal and chinese characters do not count)
-piercings/stretched lobes
-glasses
-Co. Clare accents, or Kildare accents, and Belfast as well. Not all British accents are nice...Glaswegian accents can be killer, and Jordys can be as well. The dignified British accent most people fall in love with is mostly Cornwall and Londonish bits, although Shropshire and Manchester accents are nice as well. Welsh are quite cool. Some Northern Irish accents are great (I happen to love the Co. Down accent, but MAN I need a translator for Derry.)
-Red heads (hehe)
-Guys with nice bicycles. Hotness of boy greatly increases with awesomness of bike.

MeezDiscreet 08-02-2008 11:29 AM

Bald head with a goatee
Manly men--not the ones who wear tight t-shirts and thumb rings
A guy with an intense expression. I don't know if that makes sense but it's the best way I know how to put it.

piphiangel314 08-03-2008 01:08 AM

-Tall (Over 6'1'' preferably. My ex was 6'8''... I am 5'2''. So I mean TALL.)
-Dark hair and dark eyes
-Baseball players
-Clean shaven
-Tattoos
-Deep(er) voice
-Sense of humor
-Protective
-Not emotional 24/7
-Southern boys are nice in general too :)

BlessedOne04 08-03-2008 02:22 AM

Political thinking poets who practice good hygiene and are secure in their manhood.

SOPi_Jawbreaker 08-03-2008 02:24 AM

pale white guys with dark hair and dark eyes

deep voice

nice upper arms (not HUGE like a bodybuilder, just muscular enough to look like he works out on a regular basis)

average build...I'm not picky about height as long as he's still taller than me when I'm in heels, so he just needs to be at least 5'6"...i do sometimes guys that are skinnier than average, just depends on if the guy can make that skinny scrawny look work for him

intelligent but not obnoxious about it

sarcastic/sardonic sense of humor

musical ability (especially if he plays guitar)

laid-back personality

can look good in a shirt and tie for work but then can relax in a t-shirt and jeans at a dive bar after work


Basically, my dream guy would be like Ted Mosby but without the super-eagerness to get married.

tld221 08-03-2008 11:42 AM

ooh good one.
  • men who know what theyre talking about (not in a common sense kind of way, which is also a turn on, but ones who are very educated in a particular topic)
  • locs (long, groomed, clean ones, esp when tied back? yesssssssss)
  • men who dance and not just grind up against you in the club (well those are ok too, depending on the type of night it is)
  • women who wear men's articles of clothing (suit vest, ties, fedoras)
  • glasses (particularly frameless ones, like the lawyer-types?)
  • arrogance (to an extent, i guess more like overconfidence?)
  • speaking slow and with conviction (Obama 08!)
  • mysterious types (the ones who dont really tell you much or cant read right away)
  • black men in business casual (and not baggy khakis and a too-tall polo with sneakers. i mean the clothes have to fit right)

You know what? This is one of my biggest turn-OFFS. Shows you everyone has different tastes.

33girl 08-04-2008 09:44 AM

I thought of another one over the weekend :): men who accessorize well. I mean guys who wear a cool watch or something that looks good on them, not metrosexuals who wear it because they saw it in GQ.

Absolutely, I'm so sick of seeing black guys in white tees, baseball caps, and sagging pants. There's only tiny minority of preppy looking black guys in St. Louis. I'm not overexaggerating or stereotyping, come see for yourself, if anyone doesn't believe me. I also like black guys with that artistic look that a few of us mentioned the other thread. They are even less common than the preppy type. Grrrrr....

SOPi_Jawbreaker 08-07-2008 01:51 AM

I thought of another one. Kinda weird, but I love guys with big noses. I think it just looks so masculine. And plus, if we had kids, it would balance out my small nose. :p


ETA: WOOHOO!!! 1000 posts, finally!!! And it only took almost four years and a half years.

nikki1920 08-07-2008 09:36 AM

What turns me on is:

A Southern man (something about the way they can say "darlin'")
a deep voice
nice skin
dark skin and nice teeth (Michael Jordan)
stimulating conversation
nice body
nice booty :p
the smell of a man when he gets out of the shower
the smell of him when he's working hard
a man praying
the first time my daugther's father held our child (RIP, SCD)
a man who knows what he wants
a man who isn't afraid to take care of his FEET; nasty feet are SUCH a turnoff

LucyKKG 08-09-2008 06:00 PM

I like guy who are
- confident (omg times a million!)
- playful
- into country
- capable of having a life outside of me
and have nice hips :p

blueGBI 08-12-2008 07:32 PM

White guys with long hair tied into a ponytail or worn shaggy. Basically, guys who look like Brandon Boyd from Incubus.

Black guys who look like Bob Sanders of the Colts.

Money.

LttleMsPrEp 08-12-2008 10:12 PM

I LOOVE Brandon Boyd.. but i'm also in the weird/ edgy Johnny Depp types..

- taller than 5'8 but shorter than 6'1
- preppy clothing style but artistic and "emo/punk" is kool too
- ambition
-light eyes and dark hair
- small noses and sexy lips (think David Beckham)
- awareness of political and social issues with an actual opinion (not just what mom or NBC says)
- good at making decision and doesn't rely on me to call the shots
- witty
-wide-range of musical taste
- if they play acoustic guitar i'm SOLD
- nice smile/ straight teeth
- almost any hair style is fine (just no cornrows, dreds, and unkept shape ups)
- in touch with his emotions (but not like the type that cries while watching the notebook)
- great conversationalist
- book smart with common sense
- good hygeine overall and a guy that smells like fresh linen
- a guy that's hot but isn't cocky about it
-tattoo's that mean something not the average skull or tribal crap

IMO, baseball players have the best bodies. Toned in all the right spots. :P

For me anyway.

LttleMsPrEp 08-14-2008 04:08 PM

I def agree.. baseball players AND soccer players have the most amazing bodies to me
