Off the back of a list about irrational things you find ick, let's be positive and express things you find surprisingly attractive.

Hairy forearms
Mildly hairy back
Just hairy generally
Bald heads

Love your list OP. Generally a bit hairy but not on the head 😁

I like someone with a lovely fruity voice. Like Matt Berry or Tim Curry.

Bare chest but still got his jeans on 😂 sometimes he's changing his top & I'm like ooo! Bare chest 😂 I feel the urge to go over & hug him. Sorry! 😂

marshmallowfinder · 29/03/2024 07:34

Chunky tummy. Fwor!

whoami24601 · 29/03/2024 07:35

Muscly forearms 🤤

VaddaABeetch · 29/03/2024 07:36

Loyalty…never found it though.

When he's reversing a car and he turns around and puts his arm on the back of the passenger seat.

Jelliclecats · 29/03/2024 07:37

Lean but very strong forearms. Only realised this with DP. Happy Jelliclecats.

Cathbrownlow · 29/03/2024 07:38

Intelligence and kindness

gannett · 29/03/2024 07:40

I have disappointingly conventional tastes so can't say many of the things I find sexy are unusual as such. Slim and nice muscle tone isn't exactly strange.

But I do like cyclists! Even in lycra - sometimes especially in lycra which shows a lot of things off nicely. It's the physical aspect though, there's just something about a man using hs physicality to get around. Good legs too. Conversely I don't see the appeal of drivers or men in cars at all. (DP is a cyclist but owns no lycra.)

BCBird · 29/03/2024 07:41

Bald, nice smile, nice eyes, a bit chunky. Ooh yes to arm when reversing the car.
Character: funny, loyal and considerate. Intelligence too. Nearli forgot that. If good with hands e.g creative even better. Like the idea of a cello player too
Shouldn't be that difficult really🙄

Omg this!!! My husband is so skilled and confident when reversing. It really turns me on! 😂😂😂😂😂.

Why is it so attractive!?!? X

gannett · 29/03/2024 07:42

Maybe it's unusual not to have many "icks" though? Definitely not as many as some people on the other thread. There are lots of things that don't turn me on but I just feel the absence of attraction rather than actively revolted when I see a man with a ponytail. At the other end racism/homophobia etc are too objectively awful to be classed as an ick.

WingBingo · 29/03/2024 07:42

A chest I can cry on.

PithyLion · 29/03/2024 07:44

The ability to clean a toilet thoroughly and cheerfully

BCBird · 29/03/2024 07:44

Like this thread. Zero chance of it turning nasty

Sooo, Adam Driver in Star Wars?

Jewelanemone · 29/03/2024 07:45

Slightly overweight biker blokes in leather biker trousers and boots. I can't stand leather trousers on thin men, they have to be on the portly side.

A clean shaven back of neck
A citrusy aftershave
I don’t mind a beard as long as its neat and not too full
A wink

Is it hot in here or is it me?

BCBird · 29/03/2024 07:48

The ability to put a toilet seat down would be a good start😂

ToBeOrNotToBee · 29/03/2024 07:49

Eyes that crinkle when they smile. Makes my fanny flutter.

BCBird · 29/03/2024 07:49

Ooh the bald head to caress. 😁getting all flustered. Shame I'm off to the tip😂

This one comes up in all the "what do you find sexy" threads and idgi at all! I actually paid attention last time I was in a car with an attractive male driver to see if I was missing anything but no.
