I saw this on the Literotica Personsals thread and well, I thought it would do good here as well....


So tell me, what turns a guy/gal on?

Is it the way she moves?

The way he touches you?

What turns me on is the way he looks at me. The way he eyes will sweep over my body, taking in every inch of me and then when he finally looks into my eyes, I can see the desire in them. His eyes are pools of fire and I know at that moment he wants to devour me....

Her looks.

Her laughter.

Her scent.

Do you feel that it's her looks that catch you first? What if she weren't that attractive, but yet, there was something about her?

See, a typical problem of cultural misunderstanding....I meant the way she looks at me, her look.

Even though I have to say that looks can be very attracting to me.

Oh, I'm sorry...I didn't mean it that way...But I was curious.
 
I'll admit that her physical looks definitely play a part...especially early on...damn it, I am a visual person and someone who is visually attractive to me has an advantage and there it is...so it's "shallow", but I have to admit that it is true...

but after the initial attraction it becomes more about her eyes and how she uses them, the way she carries herself...I love to be flirted with (yeah, nobody noticed that, right?) and to flirt back...I love little secrets, little glances in public places...

I love knowing an effort has been made...show up wearing a bracelet I bought for you and it affects me not only emotionally but makes me want you too...

I think being "daring" and adventurous is huge for me...I love a bit of wildness...

There's that "savage" peeking out again. :D

I like it.

Yes...sneak peeks and winks are fun, aren't they?

inside jokes...

so it's more physical...a turn on for you...more physical?
 
OK, for turn on, let me say that I am talking more arousal, that primitive stirring of the soul, not just do I find her attractive.

I like mystery, that sense of wonder and amazement. Adventure and exploration and reckless abandon.

I like the "out of the ordinary" that you know you will never meet another like her again.

I appreciate self confidence that is held in check from becoming arrogance. She knows who she is and what she can be, but doesn't think less of someone for being different.

I like the flirt, the tease, the innuendo and double entendre. That mischievous side that keeps you on your toes.

ETA: Turns on are not visual to me. Wit, integrity, altruism ... :catroar:

It's the eyes for me - the way he looks at me like I'm spread-eagled, naked, in front of him and he's got some very interesting ideas...
 
I love eyes. Eyes are the window to a womans soul. Color matters not. The spark of intelligence does. If the eyes look dead or vacant then I pass.

The eyes have it, as they say, they are the first thing I look for/at. If I can't see her eyes, then the hair or neck. But I must eventually see her eyes.

I don't know...I certainly see women who others find very physically attractive that do absolutely nothing for me...

but there is something of the apologist in me...where I feel like, as an educated gentleman I am supposed to pretend looks don't matter. But they do. I am affected by them. and sometimes I feel like I want to shout that out and defy someone to tell me that I am being shallow or judgemental, etc.

That said, it's almost always an initial reaction thing...once I know you, physical appearance has much less impact...but right away? A great ass affects me just as much as a great smile. (a smile is of course, physical...but here I am intending it to represent personality) Of course, Honey has both of those assets anyway ;)

and the more I reflect upon what I said earlier, the more I feel that the sense of adventure is my ultimate turn-on.
 
Passion and intelligence for me, most usually expressed through words.

They'd better have a high standard of ethics if they want to keep my attention.
 
Ok..

Now, tell me about how they turn you on...sexually....


Dont tell me about their beauty, humor, etc....

Give me hands on details...

Like something I posted before:

Would sending a guy/gal a pair of your undies sprayed with your favorite perfume turn him or her on?? Or you? Would that turn you on?

Ok, send me some and I'll let you know if they turn me on. :rolleyes:

from you? my first instinctive answer is yes, it would turn me on...so I'll stay with that. But I think that in the terms of this forum, and with the types of interaction we have here and the inherent limits, that just to receive a handwritten note from someone I admired here would do it...the idea that it had actually been in their hands and been written for me. Even from a person I had no sexual interest in I would still value it as a token of their esteem for me and treasure it therefore. From someone I feel desire for, like Honey, it would be a turn on.

as far as receiving some random pair of panties from a nameless lady, that would not turn me on. it's all about the personal connection.

Works for me, too.

From a purely physical standpoint, if I had to pick one feature that I always notice, it's his/her hands.

Yes. I am totally a hands person. I wouldn't say it's necessarily a turn-on thing with me, though. It's just the first thing I notice about someone.
 
As far as an act or a maneuver that gets to me, it would be somethign that reveals that inner bad girl.

I still love it when a bra strap "accidentally" slips into view, or she winks that oh so wicked wink. The innuendo and a smile that lets me know, "yeah I meant it to be ambiguously naughty, glad you picked up on it".

And of course those little touches of femme fatale are always a guaranteed boner maker.
 
I'm thinking about the way we all are here, with each other, when in 9 cases out of 10, we've never met physically, never even heard each other's voices. And yet........there is specific attraction to specific people.

Why?

It has to be their intelligence, their sensitivity, their humour, their way of expressing themselves, their personality.

I won't deny that physical attractiveness (for me, eyes and hands) plays a big part, but if two people are already turned on by each other, without even meeting in person, the physical attributes are just the icing on the cake.

So, I'm kind of with Abs on this one.

Very true. Of course, meeting has only enhanced those attractions -- all of them.

yes.

The biggest sex organ is, after all, the mind.

Intelligent people turn me on, and we have so many intelligent people here.
