How women "look", feedback for a story

I have written a story that has ancient Greek women in a gallery observing nude men in the political assemble conducting business. I am interested in feedback from women about how they would at these men in their nudity. What would they find erotic? How would they talk with each other about it?

I was of the impression that while the Greeks appreciated the human form they made a habit of wearing clothes when no making statues or working out.

I'm not a woman but I would think they would look at muscle tone, hair, butt etc. Also they would gossip and make jokes about which guys are together.

Given the various sizes and states of the male appendix, what would they enjoy most?

Digestive tract porn? Though I suppose "vermiform" would have been somewhat appropriate.
 
I doubt there's a 'universal truth' to this. In talking with my friends, we all notice different parts....abs, butts, eyes, hair, legs...you name it. :) Much of the time, IMO, it's what's most attractive about that individual person. Personally, limp cocks are kinda boring, although there's always the possibility for some future speculation. ;)

P.S. It's "appendage" not "appendix."
 
Thanks. also for pointing out the typo. It helped me understand the joke in the previous response.

There is some argument about whether Greek men debated in the assembly nude. I am using Richard Sennett's Flesh and Stone, which argues that they did. I do admit however that the notion of a gallery of observing women is a bit of a stretch.

For those of you who enjoy looking, I had attached a picture of myself as I, an elder stateman, would appear in the assembly.

I hope you're serious about this and not using this as an excuse to get people to ogle your goodies. ;)

I notice shoulders, eyes, buns.

Nice eyes, intelligence and wit are good, too.

What if the women observing was a secret? What if one of them finds a way to see in and rounds up the other women to have a peek too?
 
I'd pretend I was looking at everything but the appendage, then let my eyes drop ever-so-briefly to it. If I liked what I saw, I'd smile - a secret little smile that others could only speculate at.

In the movie, My Best Friend's Wedding, a rather horny woman jokingly put her mouth on an ice sculpture of The David...you know, to lick his scupted appendage...and her mouth got stuck. There's this great shot from behind the ice sculpture, with her arms up and around it and her head stuck you-know-where. If you're looking for a humorous twist in your story, perhaps you can use that movie scene as inspiration that not all women just look. Some touch - some a bit more intimately than others. :)
