Still laughing at bumhole surgeon!!!!!! Best post so far.

The crew from that David Attenborough doc who saved the penguins.
Or a vet.
I'm married to a Met police officer. The Met beat helmets are the exact opposite of sexy.

The boys of the met not got the flat hats yet ?

Dp looks dead gorg in his flat hat ....I avoid my bowler at all costs

coppercolouredtop · 12/01/2019 22:16

Not fat caps like firearms baseball caps
Our lads have flat caps like traffic cops traditionally have....

For me, a scientist or engineer - someone intelligent and interesting I guess.

I have worked with Architects and wouldn't touch them with a barge pole - so pretentious and superficial.

coppercolouredtop · 12/01/2019 22:59

A lot of cops seem to be quite quirky. I like that.

And the muscles. That's nice too (shallow much)

DH is a tree surgeon and surveys woodland too. Skilled with hands, can fix machinery and tie good knots, v outdoorsy and knows loads about all sorts of wildlife, comes home smelling of fresh sawdust, looks good in saw trousers :-)

I had a farmer boyfriend once- could have watched him at work in his shearing vest for hours- he was good at it too. Yes to farriers as well- basically anyone who can competently and kindly handle animals and kit.

Any male GPs I have known have been lovely too. Also primary school teachers.

Local police service (PSNI) has quite a sexy uniform. Any cops I have met have been nice. Being able to calmly contain a riot under a hail of masonry and petrol bombs and also being sympathetic and kindly to people shaken up by burglaries, car crashes etc is vv sexy.

my dp looks dead sexy in his uniform. sadly i dont....does sod all for us ladies.

ThatThingYouDo · 12/01/2019 23:50

A Carpenter for sure! Talented, good with his hands and that amazing smell of sweat mixed with sawdust Shock

My OH works at screwfix and is a supervisor on his way to becoming general manager within the next 5 years, I think this is very manly, he's a man's man so loves his tools etc, him managing people and having career goals is a massive turn on 🙈☺

SophieLouise93 · 13/01/2019 00:10

I know what we're all doing tonight......

Let's face it we all love a manly man lol

Riotingbananas · 13/01/2019 00:25

I used to go out with a DI. He had charisma and a presence that used to get him noticed everywhere we went. I'm a very independent woman but something about his job made me feel very protected and he was incredible in bed

user1497059319 · 13/01/2019 03:31

Surfing instructor.

pineapplebryanbrown · 13/01/2019 03:40

A really sexy 130 year old trillionaire with no kids.

eachtigertires · 13/01/2019 04:02

I have to say farrier, surfer or human rights lawyer. My DP is none of those but is very sexy nonetheless.

jillybeanclevertips · 13/01/2019 08:22

If his main job is spoiling me and loving me, then THAT IS the sexiest job. No uniform beats that.

motortroll · 13/01/2019 08:25

My husband runs his own recruitment company which is not sexy and he has a work laugh which is proper cringe. He is a sexy cyclist though so I'm happy with that. Thighs of rock!!!

My ex worked at curry's and he used to deliver orders like fridges and washing machines to customers cars carried on his shoulder. V manly and sexy. A manly sexy commitmentphobe but manly and sexy nonetheless!

HavelockVetinari · 13/01/2019 08:43

A doctor with medecins sans frontières.
Vet.
Armed forces officer.
Economist in a sharp suit.

Emoconn · 13/01/2019 08:59

Policeman!!! Very sexy. Love the uniform and the handcuffs

pinkstripeycat · 13/01/2019 09:17

I like a Farmer or a Diver.

Teaandcake08 · 13/01/2019 09:27

DH is a fire fighter, we live rurally so he’s retained. He has a ‘normal’ day job and then carries a pager and drops everything and runs off when needed. I’ve always maintained it does nothing for me and he says living with a ‘hero’ is wasted on me, our running joke is I’d rather have a copper WinkHowever having had to pick him up from fires so he can go to his normal job I have seen him in his leggings with the braces, jacket slung over shoulder, sweaty covered in dust stinking of smoke... I’d be lying if I said it didn’t get me!
Also his crew is the loveliest bunch of blokes you’ll ever meet, they all look out for each other and thier families. They take the fire engine to schools and local events and spend time showing the kids the engine (or pump as they say) So not all fire fighters are arseholes Smile

Neverender · 13/01/2019 10:21

Chiropractor- he'd save me a bloody fortune!

FTFF · 13/01/2019 11:43

An armed police officer 😍 its the uniform.
I come into contact with police officers every day work purposes I promise and the armed officers are just......wow.
I think it's all the equipment they have to wear/carry about.
Thankfully I get to lust over DH when visits all kitted up. I always think "phoar" when he walks in and I certainly didn't when he rocked up in his standard uniform.

Casiloco · 13/01/2019 11:51

Haven't RTFT but wonder if human rights lawyer has been mentioned. Pretty cool.

IrishNinja · 13/01/2019 11:53

If being Chris Hemsworth can be considered a job I'll go with that!
