Slightly strange turn ons

[MercyMia]

Guys with dark eyes and a penetrating gaze, listening while I talk to them. Mmmmmm!

And an object that turns me on...paper, good quality paper. Oh how I love paper!

Yes! Touch is a turn-on for me: Really fine quality fabric that is very soft, running my hand over the hairs on my husband's forearm or through his hair (which is why I complain when he gets a haircut that's too short). Good thing he doesn't mind being petted like a cat!

Speaking of panty lines--I know that the purpose of thongs is to hide panty lines, at least in theory. But when a woman wears those tight black lycra bell-bottoms (or similar pants) it can be pretty obvious that she's wearing a thong...which is HOT!

Hate to break it to you, but thong makers are out to do you guys in: they now heavily market their low-riser thongs that "don't show," meant to be worn with low-rise, boot cut jeans. Sorry boys!

But don't worry, there's a contingent of us ladies who don't mind flashin' y'alls just a li'l sumthin'.

As those low-riser thongs come out, I won't be surprised if somebody comes up with even lower-rising jeans so we can still see the thongs...LOL

LOL! Good point. Lots of women complain that men must be designing women's clothes for all the bellyaching they do about jeans not fitting, bras not fitting, etc. etc. etc.

Why is it that butt-crack pants just aren't as sexy on a guy as on a chick?

 

[lovelyboy]

...I've even noticed that some women can really get me to notice them if they have bare shoulders and I happen to see their arms raised and armpits exposed. No, I don't have an armpit fetish or anything gross like that, but maybe it's the idea of seeing a part that is not normally seen that gets me?

Damn, I need a cold shower now...

DarkLover

I'm with you on the shoulders / armpits thing ... I think it's the sense of catching sight of a hidden zone, plus when the arms are raised there is such a great toned shape that forms ... and it makes me want to kiss the armpit !!!

Because guys' crack's are usually the result of neglengance on our part, not an attempt to entice. If a woman were walking around with jeans sagging off her ass, showing some crack, that wouldn't be as sexy as showing a little peek over the top of a low cut pair.

Because guy's asses are hairy and stinky and girl's asses are shapely and smooth. Well not always, but...

Accents/Foreign Languages?

Another one to reveal. When a woman is speaking in a foreign language. Although not all languages. Spanish doesn't really do it for me, unless we are talking the chicks on telemundo. But today while scanning through the radio dial, I happened upon a russian talk channel, and ended up listening for like 20 minutes. Just this chick talking in a language I couldn't begin to understand. Is that weird?

Actually that's not weird at all. I'm a bit of a linguist myself (proficient in six of them), and I've noticed the same thing.

Spanish sounds cool to me if I can see the girl who is talking. If she's hot, the language only enhances her.

Russian is, to me, very seductive. (It's also one of the languages I'm familiar with.) I love the full-bodied sounds of the vowels. Actually any of the Slavic languages can be a turn on for me.

German CAN be hot. But it's kind of a harsh tongue. With its throaty sounds it sounds like something a dominatrix should speak.

English spoken by a British or Australian speaker can be attractive. American English spoken by a woman with an Asian accent can be really hot too!

Glad you noticed this.

Actually that reminds me of the winter olympics four years ago. That was when I got hooked on curling. Mostly because of the Swiss women's team. They were cute, plus listening to them yelling in German was HOT!

Nowhere near weird.

My boyfriend is fluent in Russian. Sometimes I tease him about it just to get him to say something in Russian, just because it's hot.

I also insist on watching all my anime in Japanese, because I love the sound of it.

 

[Not Normal]

I love when you can see just the top of a woman' painties, but not when its on purpose. It's always interesting ot see what kind of painties are on what kind of woman.

And whoever said turtle neck and jeans...Yes yes yes (glasses added and I'm done for). Any sweater really...

 

[M's girl]

I like men in (dark) suits, say Italian style. If they come across even somewhat confident I'm ready to seduce and attack (well, particularly the one I'm having a relationship with of course... )

At the same time I'm wondering... what is it about suits that enhances the gorgious-look on guys that look nice anyway, but make the not so handsome guys look even more geeky? As if they have no business wearing a suit in the first place....?

I think it is because the way a suit is cut, it is designed to emphasize a man's shoulders and general trapezoidal shape of the upper body. If a guy doesn't have much shoulders, or is overly round, or has an ill-fitted suit, it does the opposite by emphasizing flaws.

That is true for most of the clothing turn-ons that were listed.

I think that's it, yes. But in NL we have a saying for which I don't know the English equivalent but it is "kleren maken de man" which, roughly translated says "clothes can 'make' a man".

Because of what I have said before I think that saying is not true. Which is sort of affirmed by another saying that goes "al draagt een aap een gouden ring, het is en blijft een lelijk ding"... which means: no matter if you put a golden ring on a monkey, it (the monkey) is - and always will be - ugly




Poor monkeys.... ugly..... Cute, but ugly ....

With all due respect, there really is no one German "tongue." The Bavarian dialect is practically unintelligible to a Hessen, which is perhaps what you're referring to as harsh. That's a smallish part of the German nation. Berliners speak with with a much smoother, sophisticated tone; Bavarian is much softer and they drop lots of syllables; Dusseldorfers are different yet. I really like most German accents. But please don't lump all Germans together.

That said, Slavic languages really kill me: Czech, Serbian, Romanian ... lovely and musical to my ear.

You're quite right about German dialects. I've spent enough time in Germany--especially in Bavaria--that I should have known better. I probably was thinking of Bavarian or maybe the standard German which is taught in school. Sorry.

Two things:

Because guy's asses are hairy and stinky and girl's asses are shapely and smooth. Well not always, but...

What gives with the Gangsta look nowadays? Sure, your average 20-yr old has a physique like a laundry-bag full of slate tiles. I mean- 15 years ago I used to, too! But do women seriously find it attractive or alluring to see a pair of shorts held up by pubic velcro at the front and skinny butt cheeks at the back? Or worse still- slinky boxers with trousers about 1/2 way down the thighs of the occupant? What do women prefer as far as semi-casual looks go?
And while I'm about it, does the concept of a woman poured into extraordinarily tight lo-rise jeans do it for anyone? Tight lo-riders seem to be the domain of young women (Shees- do I sound like an old fart or what? Don't make even a move to comment *GLARE*) who look like they have borrowed kid sis's jeans. Me- I've got a predilection for a woman in denim & a white shirt, but don't give me feminine plumber's crack. It's bad enough getting it from the plumber. And don't give me hangover hips either. Ever. Women should not try to display their kidneys over the waistband of lo-riders. Ferphuxayxe- buy jeans your size! Too-tight lo-riders look like a tourniquet on your butt. So there!

ROTFLMAO!

I had to give up the ghost on insisting that I was still size # when I just wasn't anymore when low-rise jeans got hot a few years ago. Yeah, I have to buy 'em bigger cuz I've got wide hips, but they're actually more flattering to my figure than I imagined when they're in a size "larger." Tighter would have definitely not been better, and my nether bits don't feel like I'm wearing an upside-down corset.

 

[eudaemonia]

Okay, back to the OP.

No one's mentioned this yet: voice.

I sweardagod, there's a certain voice that can make me wet in about three seconds. This is no lie folks! I've only, erm, come across *that voice* a few times in my life and it puts me on my knees. Wish to hell someone would bottle it. I'd be a resolute addict.

 

[Quoll]

Let me see.
White lingerie, shirts, skirts, dresses, blouses, stockings (I mean stockings, not pantyhose) yeah I like white.
Shoulders.
Cleavage.
Bums.
Short women.
A husky voice.
Curvaceous women.
Nurses uniforms, especially the white ones.
Little to no make up.

We say pretty much the same, that the clothes make the man (or woman). I'm pretty sure I've also heard a similar phrase like your monkey one, but it's not exactly the same, and I can't bring it to mind right now.

Though we do have a slightly cruder one: You can polish a turd, but it's still just a turd.

Monkeys are cute.
