Being genuinely funny

Interesting thread ☺️ Is there a dadsnet in here which can tell me what turns a man on? I know what I like but haven’t the foggiest anymore what he likes!! Confused

Bloody good idea!!
LadyfromtheBelleEpoque · 23/12/2020 20:54

Whilst there are some things in common (forearms) there is so many suggestions here that are different. Pot for every lid indeed.

Some of these ‘ideals’ would horrify me but yes to the intelligent, glasses, studious look of Gary Go @Firstruleofsoupover

LadyfromtheBelleEpoque · 23/12/2020 20:55

There are/ not is🤭

CrustyChrimbo · 23/12/2020 20:57

@coronafiona

Kindness, generosity and consideration
After many years of not having a DH that prioritises these three things... I would definitely say THIS.

But I also love a strong set of manly, veiny hands with well kept nails.

Oh, my. Guys...I'm an old woman. I'm like an old dog now...I don't chase the cars anymore, although I occasionally bark as one goes by. And you have no clue how happy I am to be out of it entirely.

What turns me on now is a nice set of whiskers and a deep purr.

Hesma · 23/12/2020 21:18

Breathing! 🤣🤣🤣

mrshonda · 23/12/2020 21:20

Intelligence, kindness and humour. Doesn't matter what they look like if they have those 3 things.

Killerphoto · 23/12/2020 21:22

I love a man with nice aftershave.

Gwenhwyfar · 23/12/2020 21:25

@lasttangoinscunthorpe

DP is a police officer. When he comes home from work in uniform with a short sleeved shirt on, forearms bare...
Genuine question, is the rubbing thighs thing just because of Reeves and Mortimer or is it something you feel naturally?

There's a turn off thread and I suspect plenty of those are unisex. I'm afraid I have a lot of them; vegetarian (sort of), bad teeth, non driver (why?) and don't like pets. I'll get my coat now.
jentinquarantino20 · 23/12/2020 21:32

Nice smell. Nice arms. Good height. Men in glasses too mmmm.

Macey69 · 23/12/2020 21:42

Guys with high foreheads! Nice teeth! And a fit and muscular body!!! Not much really!!😀

Coffeemaniac · 23/12/2020 21:49

Long thighs! When I’m sitting next to a man and his les are long and lean...

ginandwineandbaileys · 23/12/2020 21:52

Just a hint of nice aftershave, not too much
Fit body, a ready smile, and intelligence.

LadyfromtheBelleEpoque · 23/12/2020 21:58

@ginandwineandbaileys

What’s a ready smile????

Men who lurk on mumsnet - what’s on your list? You, too @SimonJT🙂

TinselTinsel · 23/12/2020 22:00

A muscly back or a Geordie accent, preferably both!

FreddieMercurysCat · 23/12/2020 22:19

Nice hands and an actual interest in me.

peaceanddove · 23/12/2020 22:20

DH manfully rose to the occasion x

Nearlyshitmypantsthere · 23/12/2020 22:22

@Bloodypunkrockers , absolutely!!! I thought I was a bit nuts thinking this!!

BitOfFun · 23/12/2020 22:48

Fortunately for DH, he has a really good sense of rhythm and looks good on the dancefloor.

I think by our age, @peaceanddove, we need to hope that rolling around like a couple of porpoises becomes a category in Strictly Grin.

It's the oft-repeated sense of humour for me, I'd say. And a bit of tenderness 🎵.

Cherrypie32 · 23/12/2020 23:22

Men who can sing.

Valeatqueave · 23/12/2020 23:40

I give you ... a man who's good with cats.
