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

Do people really think the average woman goes for unkind animal abusers with no social skills? Seriously??

Big nose
Curly, rumpled hair
Slight gap in front teeth or a slight chip in one

NcSpookyPG · 29/03/2024 09:08

Veiny forearms
A pudgy tummy
Watching him doing something dexterous with his hands

Oh yeah 😁

When they're a bit cocky - they're attractive and they know it, and they know you know it.

Exactly. He knows what he's doing wearing the trousers he wears....

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

Why is it so attractive!?!? X

I don't know, but if DH found this out, we would spend our lives reversing everywhere!

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

😂😂

My fella reverses down our road everyday but he just uses his mirrors.

I want him to do the looking back arm thing 😂

watchuswreckthemic · 29/03/2024 09:18

Chatting to everyone at the same level and always being kind and patient with retail staff/ waiting staff etc.
Makes me absolutely swoon when he encouragingly helps out people like new bar stafff who are being trained by complimenting their pint pulling etc

Thewondererhasreturned · 29/03/2024 09:24

Ooh appearance wise, it's definitely changed as I've got older.
Love a hairy chest, very masculin in my opinion
Broad shoulders
I love long hair if its in a man bun otherwise shorter
Glasses seem to be a new thing for me too idk why since my partner got them hes like a different guy.

Non physical appearance
If he ran the hover round or did the dishes the odd time id be all over that 😂
Intellectual
Kind
Smell
Well dressed

Iamacatslave · 29/03/2024 09:28

@CarrieMoonbeams does your husband have a brother? Asking for a friend 😊

YES!!! This is soooooo sexy!

And a confident, in control, languid driving style.

WorkingFromHomeShite · 29/03/2024 09:31

Silver bangle or necklace or something.
But NEVER earrings, not sure why really.

Idiotshavecurlyhair · 29/03/2024 09:54

Oliver Reed in this clip.

Honestly OP, just end the thread here. This is peak gorgeousness.

Mummame2222 · 29/03/2024 09:57

Leaving me alone.

😂😂 Sorry that made me laugh. It's the least sexy thing I've ever seen.

Idiotshavecurlyhair · 29/03/2024 10:03

@NcSpookyPG

Noooo! He's divine. Young Oliver Reed, younger than in this clip, was especially dashing and masculine 😍😍😍

MurderousCheekbones · 29/03/2024 10:05

@K0OLA1D I think you and I have been on threads together before - I maybe had a BMTH related username at the time, but I name change often 🙂

And this is 'what unusual things do you find attractive' after all😂

He was fit when younger, and still not bad as he got older!

Oh god yeah, this...

producing24 · 29/03/2024 10:07

That secret fire about a topic ie when you feel like scratched surface of a calm man

Thick hair

Big green eyes

Big hands

Secretly soft

WishesPromised · 29/03/2024 10:09

I can't quite pin down what it is

  • maybe being a bit posh but lacking arrogance. A bit wild/unkempt.

Think Hugh Fernly-W

Lentilweaver · 29/03/2024 10:09

Glasses.
Cooks. And not in the way DH cooks making a huge mess.
Not on social media.

letherightonein · 29/03/2024 10:10

Oh yeah, agree. No idea why though.

Men with strong muscular forearms and big hands

When that muscle in their jaw clenches

Men who are capable and determined- words cant describe how sexy that is- decisive action rather than indecisiveness, laziness and weaponised incompetence.

Also, Jason Momoa.

DrJoanAllenby · 29/03/2024 10:12

Fit and healthy. Clean shaven. No tattoos or piercings. Clean and groomed but not effeminate. Physically and mentally strong. Tall. Not a single drop of left wing views. Mind to animals and great sense of humour. Confident and intelligent.
