What Is Sexy?

Recent discussions have touched upon sexiness, like Palin's sexiness or long hair vs short hair. But really, what is sexy? Is it something physical? Is it how the person carries themselves? What is it that you see on a man or a woman that makes you say to yourself "Hey! That's sexy?" Your thoughts.

@ekim I see your point and if the sexiness is geared to sex alone it is overrated. But for me sexy means that there is something very appealing that attracts my attention, not necessarily in a sexual way. Example, I work in events and for me seeing a florist in control of her environment while decorating a hall is sexy. Or a designer while creating the motif for an upcoming event. That passion and drive appeals to me and has a lot to do when hiring.

Hmm, it's interesting that most of the posts thus far were from men...
As a woman, I think a man who is confident (not cocky) is sexy. The way he commands a room, walks, stands...it's definitely in the personality and how one feels about themselves! -
lol My wife tells me that when I'm doing a million things at once before an event she finds me sexy. Always thought she said that because she's my wife. Guess I'll believe her now.

Confidence and intelligence are the key. Sometimes I find coolness sexy. Sometimes I find geeks sexy. My ex looks like David Beckham, but I have dated a guy 1/10th as good looking who I thought was sexier, probably because the only thing "David Beckham" was passionate about was playing baseball. Sexiness is hard to pinpoint.

My Italian friends always tell me that every woman has something sexy about her. Because of this I'm always looking for that thing that makes them sexy and more often than not it is in the way they carry themselves rarely on a physical atribute. Although Jack Daniels on the rocks and a good cigar have a certain appeal too.

Sexiness comes when physicality merges with a dream. We don't admit how much our dreams really intoxicate us, establish our personal mythos, or how they expand and deepen over time. They build our language of identity, our language of image expression, our language of love. They are veritably the most primal source of the stories we live by.
Who are the women who are hit on the most on the street? Isn't it those with fairylike qualities, or who appear particularly vulnerable (as potentially the damsel in distress?) And even Sarah Palin moved people so powerfully in their dreams that an online commentator recently wrote in "Slate," "I Dream of Sarah," and asked people to submit their bizarre (and sometimes erotic) dreams of the Governor.
