What's HOT and what's not...

Recently several guys have sent me PM asking me what I find attractive in men. I thought that was an interesting question and I am going to outline what I think is hot and what I think is not. I am not attempting to say that what turns me on or off somehow represents what all women find attractive. But I am curious about what other women would say on this topic.

So I gave this some thought and I realized that there are some basic similarities regarding men with whom I have a sexual relationship.

What I think makes a man hot…

1. They have above average intelligence. I don’t give guys an I.Q test before I have sex with them and it has not been a ‘punch-list’ item that I have used as a criteria. But since the men that I have sex with are all very smart I would say that intelligence must be part of the formula of what is hot to me.
2. They have a good sense of humor but are not clownish or goofy.
3. They treat me and other people with respect and they have self-respect.
4. They have a strong libido and view sex as natural and not taboo.
5. They all have a strong work ethic.
6. They have good personal hygiene.
7. They are health conscious and in reasonably good shape.

What’s not hot…

In the above list I hope that guys will take notice of the fact that penis-size is not number one or any number at all. I don’t care how big a guy’s penis is. I say this because I get lots of PM from guys that want me to know that they have a monster penis. They claim it is about 12 inches long and extremely thick. First, I don’t believe that most men on Literotica have giant penises. The average penis is about 5-6 inches long not 12 inches long. But size does not make sex better. A well-used tongue can give a wonderful orgasm and the tongue doesn’t need to be 12 inches long.

Also, please notice that race is not what makes a guy hot nor is age. Physical appearance is clearly a factor in sexual attraction but if the 7 points I listed are in place then a man with average looks can still be very sexy to me.

I am also very turned off by the concept of dominance or submission, humiliation or inflicting pain. I am not being critical of those that are turned on by these concepts. I am just saying that I have no desire to dominate anyone in connection with anything in life including sex. I have no interest in being in submission or humiliated. It would make me sick to humiliate anyone even if I thought they were disgusting. So the idea of being turned on by humiliating anyone or inflicting pain is incomprehensible to me. If that sort of thing floats your boat that is fine with me. Go ahead and pull you fingers off with a pliers if that gives you a thrill. But for me sex is about giving pleasure and receiving pleasure. And I get a greater thrill out of giving pleasure than getting it.

So, that’s what’s hot and what’s not for me. How about you? (I am directing the question to women but would love to hear what guys have to say about this too.)

Tits or GTFO.
 
With the exception of 4 (which I think of as being more specific to the question), I would like to think that these would be considered desirable characteristics for anyone in society by I would hope all people. You can argue genetically this makes sense: you are attracted to people who are likely to make a stable productive society. I would like it if young people could be encouraged to think this way. The would lead happier lives and the divorce rate would be lower.
 
How'd I miss this gem? Another alt for the iggy shitpile.
I had OP pegged as a Que alt. The glowing praise for AJ seals it.

"She" fluffed AJ in another one of his threads, too:

Personally, I like this gem:

I have noticed that there are several guys on Literotica that claim to be professors. Some of them PM me and I like to ask what it is that they "profess." So far most of them seem pretty studpid.

:cool:
 
He has to have self love that is all! Then he will exude hotness. Doesn't mean he's the man for me though. We may have little in common.
 
Wow the "altie" /paranoia thing is worse here than any i've seen an any "serious" forum. :rolleyes:
 
As a newbie, I can't help but feel as though I missed some vital information that caused the negativity this post incurred. As such, I will only share my thoughts on the post itself.

There are separate things I consider turn on/offs depending on what I'm looking for.

If I want a real relationship, naturally I would be looking for someone who is compatible on an intellectual, emotional, and sexual level.

That said:

1. They have above average intelligence.
2. They have a good sense of humor but are not clownish or goofy.
3. They treat me and other people with respect and they have self-respect.
4. They have a strong libido and view sex as natural and not taboo.
5. They all have a strong work ethic.
6. They have good personal hygiene.
7. They are health conscious and in reasonably good shape.

-- is an accurate assessment of that. Although, I like goofy, because I'm quite silly, myself. Nerdy isn't bad, either, because I'm a huge one.

If I'm just looking for sex, none of those really apply, other than proper hygiene. If it's a fling, I do prefer someone I am able to have banter with, but mostly, if it's an FWB situation I specifically look for people who I don't have a bunch in common with because I don't want attachment issues.

Turn offs are mostly the same for both. Being overly machismo. Overly self-involved/egotistical. Having an inflated sense of self-worth to the point of entitlement. STD's. Laziness (for example, if I'm always doing the work... because I'll be damned if I'll spend my sex life never getting rammed from behind). Chewing tobacco. Missing teeth. Excessively obese. And if after a month you still haven't been able to give me at least one orgasm, even if it's only by your hand or mouth, I'm going to call it a quits. Also, don't be a whiney baby. It's one thing to vent, but if you always have something to complain about, you just have a negativity problem.
 
The most wildly arousing PMs make the recipient feel noticed, seen or understood... Because men who pay attention (to me) are hot.
 
Five minutes is often enough, depending on their particular gifts, skills...

I dunno, personally, I'm not flattered by strangers PMing. I hadn't posted a thing, yet, and I already had 3 messages from guys. When I asked "why", one guy said because they liked my username. Sorry, but, no... They are only messaging in hopes that they will find some woman - ANY woman - who will play their sexual games. Quantity over quality. It's an ugly mindset.

Am I opposed to PMs? Of course not. But, that's got to be earned, if you want me to reply in earnest.

Yeah. I’m unforgivably rude here sometimes. It’s sad. Out in the world I would never flat-out ignore a person attempting to connect with me, no matter how unfortunate the attempt. I’d feel sympathetic, give them a chance, assume good intentions... Here, I almost never reply to a PM. In some ways the distance and anonymity turns us all in to a bunch of assholes, because the endless supply of options online makes everyone way more selective than we are otherwise.
