5. My dear GoPsUx.........
What turns me on?

Strong masculine men....

Musicians...

Beards......

Intelligence......

Compassion....

The willingness to cry or show emotion......

The ability and knowing how to use it.......of when to be strong, and when not to be....

And last but not least.........someone who finds me attractive.......

Those attributes are what turn me on........

6. Brains
The ability to carry on a decent conversation. Baldness, coupled with a cute face. Decency. An unforgettable smile. Great sense of humour. A willingness to be touched and caressed. Kissable lips, neck, and ears.

Well hung doesn't hurt, but not really neccessary.

8. i've recently discovered that among other things -- i'm a facist.
i'm intrigued not by just the eyes -or the hair -- but how the face is put together.

and i get really reved up over faces that are just a little off.

i.e. i prefer kevin bacon over brad pitt.

is a must. intelligence, kindness and com/passion are also requirements. no phonies. genuine people only.

it'd be easier for me list to list what doesn't turn me on. i don't have a set type of man. if their inside is beautiful their outside is beautiful.

Edited on Mon Sep-11-06 07:11 PM by WritingIsMyReligion
;)

(The writers, the artists, the musicians. The crazy people, IOW.)

The academics.

The kind ones.

The ones who appreciate brain as much as beauty.

The independent.

The strong.

The sensible.

The ones who aren't afraid to be "girly."

The liberal.

The witty.

The funny.

22. Brains, compassion, a love for animals, consistency in behavior & honesty.

Trust is a biggie for me.
He needs to respect himself, me and the world we live in.
Pride in personal appearance and taking good care of himself is very important.

31. Trust is imperative! Without that you have nothing to build on.

Love doesn't always grow with trust :shrug: sometimes the best you can hope for is a wonderful friendship.

BTW ~ I look for the same things in my friends as I do in the man I love.

Lisa Loeb is totally hot!
and what started it for me was the woman about a 1 min into the video Goody two shoes (adam ant) I was infatuated watching her as a
young kid.

also my favorite Angel was Kate Jackson (the brainy one)
