Just musing about this (too much time on my hands Grin).

I have realised that I find the following very appealing and sexy:

Someone with dark hair and blue eyes combination
Strong hairy forearms (preferably tanned)
Men who have moustaches and dimples together (a la Tom Selleck) - this is really weird as I don't really like moustaches on men and would hate DH to grow one but celeb crushes over the years have shown this is a theme for me Confused

I can't be the only one?

Lovely handwriting

MrsGulDukat · 23/04/2021 09:07

Tall men.
Dark hair and blue eyes.
Nice smelling.
Suit. Love a man in a nice suit.
I'm also quite partial to a man with his sleeves rolled up.
Also like a man with strong presence about him.

Also forearms! Hairy or not. Also a beard and moustache but not a long one, like a few weeks of growth and I like when its a bit rugged looking.

My husband used to have short stubble and hair, now he’s bald, has a beard and wears glasses and is even more attractive.

I thought Mike wozniak was the guy that started apple or amazon

bloodsuckingmutant · 23/04/2021 09:14

weird mouths Blush

I cannot explain it, but think Jonathan Rhys Myers, Skeet Ulrich

StormBaby · 23/04/2021 09:16

Forearms give me the fanny gallops. Especially if wearing a watch or wristband. And there’s nothing sexier than watching a man change gears in a car 😲

I also love my DHs top lip, it’s so soft and kissable

WankmasterBastardDeLaShithead · 23/04/2021 09:16

A big beaky nose, square shoulders, and healthy but "quirky" teeth (a little bit wonky in some way).

BrownEyedGirl80 · 23/04/2021 09:17

Stubble.
A nice straight in proportion cock

WankmasterBastardDeLaShithead · 23/04/2021 09:17

@groggylegs - yes, exactly!

cupoftea2021 · 23/04/2021 09:18

Toned calf muscles & arms

JustGiveMeGin · 23/04/2021 09:19

I always say dark hair and dark eyes, every man I have had a relationship with has been blonde and blue eyedHmm so I'm not sure if I even know what I likeGrin
I do love the broad shoulders and small waist (NO six-pack)that my DH had when I met him (now a very snuggly beer barrel!). Must be tall, over 6ft as I am about 5'10" so national average is no good for me. Also pert, peachy bum and rugby players legs.....

WankmasterBastardDeLaShithead · 23/04/2021 09:19

@deadringer - wasn't it sad when he had his teeth "fixed" Sad

fairyannie · 23/04/2021 09:21

I've always gone for blond hair.

When my all my friends loved Starsky, I loved Hutch.

Married a blond, deep voice, rugby players legs, Popeye's forearms (with tattoo).

Still bloody fancy him 36 yrs later.

Bluedeblue · 23/04/2021 09:58

Tall with broad shoulders. I'm only 5ft and DH is 6ft3 with 48 inch chest. Love it!

cushioncovers · 23/04/2021 10:00

Strong facial features especially nose and chin.
Dad bod
Hairy body

Deep voice & fore arms obviously

Paletteofcolour · 23/04/2021 10:02

Wrists, especially if they are wearing a leather or cord bracelet. DH's are fine Grin

Yes to the sleeves rolled up! When my DH comes in with rolled up sleeves it's akin to me entering in lingerie for him
MrsGulDukat · 23/04/2021 10:19

@NamechangeApril21

I dont known why it's so sexy but it just is.

Wegobshite · 23/04/2021 10:32

@TheSandman Eric Roberts I’ve always though he was sexy and very underrated actor I like him in the Mariah Carey Videos he’s a very sexy older man . But Mariah runs of with the guy from prison break who to be fair is pretty hot as well😂

AlecTrevelyan006 · 23/04/2021 11:18

@Wegobshite

I’m glad I’m not the only one that finds a man reversing a car with his arm around the passenger seat sexy 😂😂😂 I thought i might have been a bit weird 😂
Michael McIntyre did a sketch about this
BatleyTownswomensGuild · 23/04/2021 11:57

I think I have a bit of a lumberjack fetish. 😂

Love a thick, well groomed beard, check shirt, combat style trousers with lots of pockets to carry penknives etc, big boots, muscley arms and a chest you could lean a 200 ft Scots Pine against....

BatleyTownswomensGuild · 23/04/2021 11:58

Totally get the forearms thing. Sleeves rolled up 😍

SteveArnottsCodeine · 23/04/2021 11:58

Big noses. Nice forearms. Boxy-square shoulders.

Seriously79 · 23/04/2021 12:12

I love a ginger man - I have serious fanny gallops for Ed Sheeran.

peaceanddove · 23/04/2021 12:39

Very broad shoulders and big, warm, dry hands (dryness is very important) that look clean but most definitely not manicured. A friend's DH is a very handsome bloke but when I found out he carries a little manicure set in his briefcase my vagina slammed shut so hard it made me wince.
