SirenaBlusera agony auntThe movie I saw is by FilmIdeas and it's part of the Travel Odysseys series, "Andalusia" (Andalucía). I hope that doesn't sound strange but I saw my physically ideal guy there... in case you're wondering, I was in Spain for SCHOOL, I'm not a creepy stalker or anything. But, I did have some interesting dreams after watching that film. Nuff said. :-)

SirenaBlusera agony aunt@heartfulloflove... that's what does it for me at the end of the day. If someone doesn't have certain emotional qualities, it's a dealbreaker, regardless of what he looks like.

Has to be nice and sweet, a good listener, someone who understands feelings and knows how to listen to people.

Non-temperamental.

Has to like dogs.

I'm picky I know :)

SirenaBlusera agony aunt@Not my name: Blue eyed and blond surfer types? You should have gone to my Jr. high and high school- 99 percent of the boys there fell into that category!

Nothing wrong with them, but I never thought they were attractive.

I've always been attracted to Hispanic guys. Many of them are handsome, but it goes deeper than physical features... I've always really identified with Latin stuff, Latin culture is such a big part of my life and I've been fortunate enough to live in two Latin countries and fallen in love with the culture. It's natural I'd be attracted to the guys in the culture.

I feel strange saying this, but I saw a movie (one of those travel videos) and one of the guys is someone I would consider to be ideal, physically... I don't know his name of if he's well known.

@ Gasolina: A pasty faced, basement dwelling, soda swilling smoker. That's NOT.

YUCK!! I'm gonna have a nightmare. I'd rather sleep with another girl. (Nothing wrong with that! It's just not my preferred gender)

@notmyname: mmm think Johnny Depp

Maybe I'll have a good dream after all...

adamantine agony auntI have a mouth/chin fetish. I find full lips, nice lip shape, nice teeth/smile and a strong jaw/chin to be a HUGE turn on lol. My boyfriend has the perfect mouth, I'm actually jealous of it. haha. Also I like guys with nice hands. Long lean fingers. so hot.

I love lean guys with slight muscle. Huge muscles are a turn OFF. Normally I like guys who are taller than me but that's not important as my bf is the same height so he's kinda little.

I don't really mind what colour eyes, as long as he doesn't have sad eyes and is able to express other emotions with them.

my guy has crows feet from smiling, great arms and chest, peircing blue eyes...sigh. he just came in and im thinking, yes after all these years he still does it for me. :) one more thing...although all of the physical features, the rough craggy manly looks, the sexiness that he oozes...the one thing that makes my heart really turn over is when i walk into the room and our youngest two kids are up in the recliner with him...the boy is 10 and the girl is 8...when i see him reading to them, and the girl is combing his hair and putting barrettes and curlers in his hair...and then i pass back thru and they are all three sound asleep...my heart just melts. its the wonderful person that he is that really does it for me and hes looks are not movie star drop dead georgeous, but he is handsome and fit. from our first date 30 years ago,(i was 13) i have never found anyone else that is as attractive to me.

In a guy..

I love the hair, and any guy I've ever been attracted to has had black or dark brown hair. The man I love just now has black messy/spikey hair and I think it's amazing :)

I always notice there eyes, I don't care what colour they are although I I have a soft spot for green, what matters to me is that the eyes are genuine and when they smile it reaches their eyes.

I like guys who don't give one about what others like and aren't afraid to do what they love. For instance the guy I love absolutely loves making animations, art and films

I like guys with a bit of meat on them, I like to feel secure and believe it or not I don't go ga ga for muscles either :)

Not My Name agony auntOh yeah, ... Sirena reminded me, ... I like dark men too, ... olive skin, dark hair, dark eyes. Tho in my teens I went for the blonde hair blue eyed surfer types, but it really is European's that attract me now. Maltese and Italian in particular.

I also detest facial hair in a major major way. In fact the only guy I have ever kissed with any is my current man, but a few weeks and I convinced him to get rid of it :-)

....and defined boning - mmm think Johnny Depp. So nicely defined cheek bones, prominent (but not excessively big) noses, ..and of course that ties in with my thing for hip bones/illiac crests.

I should just send in a picture of my man lol - would save me lots of typing. :-)

SirenaBlusera agony auntI think tattoos are sexy on guys, but it isn't a dealbreaker if he doesn't have any.

I like dark hair, either dark brown or black, and olive or dark skin, and I really notice eyes. I really like dark brown eyes.

I don't like facial hair... I think it's gross.

Of course, a cute face and being in physically good shape are two features I love.

Not My Name agony auntI have a real 'thing' for the illiac crest - that area that is kinda the front of the hip bone/ edge of the abs. mmmmmm drool drool lol - but they can't be packing too many extra kilo's on around the midriff or it spoils the look/ feel of it for me. That is def my number one fav feature on a guy!

I like a manly torso - not weedy, but not beefcake muscular either. 5'10 - 6 ft is ideal tho I have never let height be a factor in a partner.

Love smiling eyes, ... the kind that somehow get a sparkle in them when a guy is looking at you or being cheeky/devious.

Hair long enough to reach the base of the neck is hot, ... and I would not have said this one previously, but I find my current man incredibly sexy in all departments and he has tattoo's in sleeves down both arms, a couple on his back, couple on his chest, one on his calve, and my fav is the one on the back of his neck. So I guess I find tattoo's hot now too.

A female reader, Vicci United Kingdom +, writes (23 March 2010):

Vicci agony auntTo be honest, the first thing i look at on a guy is his shoes. then face, then clothes.

I prefer hairy legs to unhairy, and actually i prefer lean guys with a bit of muscle than massively musclely guys.

I like guys hair a bit messy, lover enough to run my hands through, but not too long otherwise it looks stupid.

not bothered about hair/eye colour... eyes should be powerful.

Tbh i prefer stronger men with attitude, the ones that are a bit more bad, so i can feel equal to them and i like having fights with my boyfriends sometimes, it shows we are passionate about each other, and that we are not pathetic loseers ;)

hopes this helps,

my perfect man changes thru the years....as a teen i liked really slim. now i like a little meat on the frame. i like hair, the body needs to be manly and neat and clean, but there are a lot of flexibles. the personality and sense of humor will attract me very quickly...however you did ask for physical attributes. i do like a mans shoulders, arm, chest and butt. legs are good too...but in all honesty if im attracted to the person themselves the looks are not that important. clean is not an option...scruffy is ok, no big overhangs....i see potential in most men though. have i mentioned that i like men? lol there is nothing sexier than my husband straight from the shower, coming in the bedroom in a pair of levis only ...the top buttom undone. yikes.

ElectricSheep agony auntHow fun! I get to say what I like in a man! =D

I like facial hair; strong, masculine hands; doesn't necessarily need to be fit, but in good shape; needs to have body hair!; have a prominent nose (not huge, but small is too feminine for me); be taller than me of course; that's it that I can recall at the moment.

A female reader, Gasolina Canada +, writes (23 March 2010):

Gasolina agony auntI have never really been into this sort of dissection in body parts.

What I can tell you is that fitness and good nutrition are a must. For me, healthy is good looking. I like a guy who cares enough about himself to get fresh air and regular exercise, makes healthy eating a part of his lifestyle (and knows how to prepare real food - not just rip open boxes and cans). Health shows in his energy, and his colour, and the sparkle in his eye. That's hot.

A pasty faced, basement dwelling, soda swilling smoker. That's NOT.

They have to be taller than me, thats a must for me and a preference they're still taller than me or about the same height when I've got heels on.

I prefer brown hair.

Eyes! They've got to have eyes I can just look into for hours and find all I need to know is there within those eyes.
