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?

Beautifully manicured hands, with long delicate fingers like those of a pianist.

Chatanooga1 · 23/04/2021 14:19

I was t attracted to bald men when I was younger but now a big built bald man is somehow irresistible! Confused

Waxonwaxoff0 · 23/04/2021 14:20

Tattoos, especially hand ones.

MiniTheMinx · 23/04/2021 14:29

My perfect man would have Oliver Reed's voice and my husbands arrogant looking nose.

Holothane · 23/04/2021 14:48

@Wegofshite Thank you, I’ll check these out,

I also like a man who can fix stuff. Preferably with his shirt off, displaying a six-pack. We had a workman round a few weeks ago. He was about 30, gorgeous and when he reached up to fix something and his T-shirt rode up to reveal a six-pack, I nearly fainted.

wanderedlonelyasacloud · 23/04/2021 15:09

Tall-ish but not too tall
Stubble but no beard
Solid-ish build but not too big or muscly
Shoulders broad enough to look good in a suit
I think I sway towards people with darker hair as well

Reading back over that I've just described a middle of the road joe bloggs havent I Grin

I also often find myself attracted to men in manual jobs but that's the complete opposite of my DH as he works in an office

Vagessence · 23/04/2021 15:35

Veiny arms do it for me.

Holothane · 23/04/2021 15:57

Just seen video he’s gorgeous in them.

Wegobshite · 23/04/2021 16:09

@Holothane - yes he is 😜 he is for me the ultimate silver fox of men .
I did remember reading years ago that one of the main reasons his career never took off was because of a very bad drug problem and so producers wouldn’t insure him in films .

I like him in the film with Sharon Stone and Sly as well

I’m a secret fan

Lampzade · 23/04/2021 16:10

Little gap between the two front teeth

PermanentTemporary · 23/04/2021 16:12

Hands and wrists. Shoulders. And arms. In that order. By the time I notice the shoulders I'm a quivering heap.

Voice and laugh. My boyfriend has a deep comedy laugh 'hur hur hur' and I love it.

Hips. Bums are OK but my first husband had the world's most incredible arse and it put me off i think. Hips are where it's at.

Erect penises but I welcome every size and shape so that doesn't really count.

username12345T · 23/04/2021 16:13

:

I like crooked teeth, preferably overlapping incisors
Dark, thick, wavy hair
Long dark eyelashes
Long, slender fingers like a pianist
Slim, kind of skinny and tall

zukiecat · 23/04/2021 16:14

Long dark hair and beards for me.

I don't find anybody attractive if they don't have any of these features.

RUOKHon · 23/04/2021 16:15

Got to be green or blue eyes with very dark eyelashes.

I have never liked brown eyes on a man.

Also, you know how when feet turn ever so slightly inward when they walk? Like pigeon-toed but not as pronounced as that. I really like that. Hate it when men walk with their feet turned outwards. Like ducks.

Lampzade · 23/04/2021 16:15

@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 😂
Me too That is very sexy. Dh looks all manly and capable when he does this
cookiecreampie · 23/04/2021 16:30

Big nose, nice eyes, height and broadness. I like imperfect teeth too.

Holothane · 23/04/2021 16:31

@Wegofshite yes that’s right there’s a set of films I dare not mention them but he’s drop dead gorgeous in them, I know it’s wrong but this let’s just say I combust, I can’t stand Stallone is Eric lead role in this one?. He’s been clean for years now.

GNCQ · 23/04/2021 21:03

@Sparklingbrook

I don’t get the forearms reversing thing at all. Confused
Haha I read those posts but couldn't understand at all. I was imagining all these men reversing their car with their arms draped over the back seat where the kids sid, thinking how many men have such long arms?

Then obvs realised the passenger seat is just the one next you...

Still don't see the attraction mind...

Sparklingbrook · 23/04/2021 21:07

I don't know why they need to put their 'manly' forearms around the passenger seat to reverse. Confused I never do it, does it make the reversing easier? No parking cameras?

You are thinking of Mr Tickle @GNCQ Grin

Inthesameboatatmo · 23/04/2021 21:18

@ seriously79
Fanny gallops ,love it
Will be pinching that one

TheSandman · 23/04/2021 21:24

I'm not sure if this is a physical feature but women with deep voices are just so.... fwaaaar!

Chickoletta · 23/04/2021 21:37

Eyes slightly too close together.

TeeBee · 23/04/2021 21:45

Oooh, I love a belly. I keep feeding my OH up.
