Can be anything

Can't lie a six pack

So so many.

Rolled up shirt sleeves with nice forearms. Large arms and shoulders. Lopsided smile.

I like large and hairy men. Not necessarily large as in ripped or large as in obese but just big build.

@KarlKennedysDurianFruit

Humour, intelligence, compassion, understands equality/feminism, height, dark hair, facial hair.
Sounds like Freddie Mercury was your ideal date?

Doing any kind of home maintenance. Especially involving a drill.

Nice smile, nice bum, funny personality shame ive not met a man with all 3 yet 🤣

Scotland32 · 23/12/2020 18:29

A kilt

Another one for Jewish. Nearly everyone I've ever fancied has been Jewish. Glasses pretty much mandatory. Skinnier the better. Gary Go is a lovely example. Jewish men often have super hair, and a sort of mental independence/strength I can't describe well, but it's verrry sexy to me.

Forearms, not a quiver on the ECG machine for me. Strange but so interesting to read about this.

@merryhouse

lanky skinny geeky types with a Scottish pointy face

(basically I'm a sucker for David Tennant Grin)

...but apart from that, the main thing is The Ability To Do Something - irrelevant what it is, really: if I'm spending time with a group of people it's inevitable that I start to fancy the one who's best at the activity (even if I start by considering him definitely Not My Type).

lanky skinny geeky types with a Scottish pointy face Grin

Like him too.

ChiaraRimini · 23/12/2020 18:35

Irish accent
Sandalwood aftershave
Glasses
Neatly trimmed beard not horrific wild hipster thing

I can see some appeal😉

Physically - deep chocolate brown eyes, wavy chestnut colour hair, strong forearms, physically.

Character - compassion and curiosity for events and issues that affect humankind.

user1492450936 · 23/12/2020 18:43

That strip of bare flesh below the belly button but above the shorts, when footballers are injured and laying on their backs

onwheels · 23/12/2020 18:44

good face with well set out bone structure but not typically attractive.
olive or deeper tone skin
light toned eyes - love light blue and light brown-green

knowledgeable and well informed - not vacuous and narrow minded.
capable and confident.

Mamafaye · 23/12/2020 18:45

NoShitHemlock
Could of written that myself word for word 😂.
Having said that, extreme intelligence is a super turn on for me. I remember listening to a rather tubby-not-much-to-look-at type of guy a few years ago whilst he told me about his work (very scientific) and I just thought, “yup, I wanna sleep with you” lol

wizzywig · 23/12/2020 18:46

@MrsCplus is that the look that either makes you blush intensely/ faint/ or makes the world stop?

SandwhichGenerationGal · 23/12/2020 18:47

Idris Elba. That’s all

Melange99 · 23/12/2020 18:48

Forearms definitely. Arms in general, muscular but not gym muscular, kitchen fitter muscular.

A shapely calf 😂

sortmylifeoutplease · 23/12/2020 18:55

Toned abs

Skysblue · 23/12/2020 18:55

Forearms - interesting to see this seems to be a common opinion.

Also when he spontaneously does housework. Nothing makes us more likely to have sex than when he does some housework without having to be asked.

Elisi · 23/12/2020 18:56

An Irish accent

Anothertiredmother · 23/12/2020 18:57

Intelligence and independence

Guylan · 23/12/2020 18:58

Strong woody smell. If he wasn’t so wonderful, I could replace DH with a decent candle.

The deadpan humour in this line has had me grinning each time I think of it.

Craftycorvid · 23/12/2020 18:59

Lovely hands! Expressive eyes. Competence! But done quietly and without fuss. Makes me go all unnecessary.....
