Discussions

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.

    Sexy is a characteristic of a person that causes arousal in another person.

    @tangledweb Ok. What does that for you?

    Confidence and a genuine heart can make trolls seem sexy.
  4. ekim941
    Overrated.
    1. BrazenTeacher
      lol. Care to elaborate?

      it's sexy to be overrated.
    3. ekim941
      Ok. You have (at best) and hour having sex. What do you do with the other 23 hours each day. Sexy tends to wear out quickly.

    What I think is a perfect sexy scene as far as a movie went was in Witness
    with Harrison Ford and Kelly McGinnis, when he walks into her room and she is topless, and their eyes meet through the mirror. No touch, no words, no flaunt just pure sex appeal.

    Ya, confidence has means a lot to me. @rozie If we're going to mention sexy movie scenes how about John Travolta being shaved in Phenomenon? No sex but really sexy.

    I find a great sense of humor, confidence, compassion, and intelligence sexy.
    1. ekim941
      Why thank you.

      Just displaying my confidence
    2. AngieSS
      Aww, you're very welcome!

      edit: your sense of humor as well

    I starts with a physical basis for me but can evolve given a good personality and smarts. Just wrote about how Rachel Maddow has surpssed Michelle Malkin.

    @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.

    Sexy is an emotion. I think it arouse my emotion of 'want' and 'need' when it comes to the term sexy.

    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!

      I agree. When I met my last ex I thought he was full of himself; too full of himself, overboard. But it worked
  12. mrwolf
    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.
    1. ModelElaine
      aha! now I know how to make a man do everything at once. just tell him he looks sexy when he is working

    Sexy is a social construct for the manifestation of ideal carnal lust.
  14. nadzri68
    Sexy means it turn you on while others dont
  15. bloggernoob
    i'd say it has to do with confidence and mystery and the way you project yourself. Of course, u need to be physically attractive to pull any type of sexiness off. I would say that scarlett johansson does a good job of being confident and mysterious.
  16. roentarre
    Sexy is something untangible
  17. mrwolf
    @modelelaine - :o) it does work for my wife. @bloggernoob - (wife not in sight) Scarlett Johansson... grrrr

    1. dosyrosie
      Hooray, finally I find someone else who appreciates a man in a suit!
  20. dcdatingdiva
    Oh yeah...and a man in a uniform...hot firemen...sexy...
    1. nadzri68
      Just don't fall for the conman who wear suit!
  21. Profitimo
    muscles and abs..is sexy
  22. dosyrosie
    Sexy is definately confidence, but as has been said, over-confidence or arrogance is most definately not! I think a man has to be 'his own man' too, its very strong and secure. Lads showing off to each other, the whole macho thing, is a total no no for me!!

    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.

    I personally think that sexy is a state of mind. it's an inner confidence that shows to others where ever you go.

    sexy is what, anything that raises your hairs up ? eyes become broad and you get shocked by watching that scene,
    its according to me ?
  26. Rozie818
    What is sexy?
    Some would think a "bulge" is sexy

    1958 Plymouth Fury in Red with white trim....now that's sexy.
  28. kikolani
    I think it is the way people flaunt what they have. Even someone totally gorgeous can come off as not sexy based on the way they dress, their posture, they attitude, and so on.
  29. DVS
    Jack Daniels...on the rocks. That's sexy too.
  30. mrwolf
    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.
  31. mizhelena
    attitude does it for me, confidence, being funny, assertiveness and a touch of stubborness.
    1. SLickGurl
      I agree 100%

    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.

    Research by anthropologists has found that when it comes to "sexy" - be that a person, an image or an experience - 1/3 of any given group will find it hot, 1/3 will be neutral and 1/3 will be turned off.
  34. cmars2
    Sexy is ME. Hahaha!
    One can be sexy whether the person is fat or thin. It's in the attitude.
  35. EnergyNoCrash
    Connection with another that makes you feel understood.
  36. CrankyChick
