What Makes a Woman Sexy?
An article in this month's Women's Health (Buy Direct) discusses the male viewpoint of what makes a woman sexy. In a nutshell? Its all about the moments where women don't go out of their way to be sexy but rather when they just are. Driving barefoot, doing yoga and accidentally showing some skin while leaning over were all mentioned.
Interestingly, the men that took part in the survey that the article was based on stated that (what they saw as) forcing sexiness was a turn off. So high heels are great, but not if you're obviously uncomfortable wearing them. Too much makeup, jewelry or skin showing were also mentioned as being not so sexy.
But what about you? What do you think makes a woman sexy? Why?

There are the usual physical features that all guys go for, but for me, it’s all in eyes and the face. One thing that I ABSOLUTELY go nuts for is women with glasses…. can’t explain it.
Women who are -or seem to be- all all right with being a woman, natural womanhood so to speak.
Woman who are what they want to be. nothing more nothing less. Be what you are. no peer pressure, no media hypes, no fashion victims.
Some look/behave like what you think a woman (men do the same, really) should look or behave like. No need.
Life isn’t a stage, and we aren’t all actors. Life is an adventure, we are all here by mere accident, and therefore free to choose.
Nature, not nurture is sexy.
Spontaneity, humor, and confidence.
Women who aren’t trying to be sexy are much sexier than those who put effort into it.
As a woman I’ve been called sexy before at the most inopportune times; wearing jeans and a tank, cooking dinner, or trying to read something with my librarian glasses on. I think sexy is in the eye of the beholder. When people care, sexiness becomes more apparent and little things become amazingly sexy!
When men stop trying to appear politically correct about wanting “confidence” and “a woman who is herself” and just be honest and admit that you want stupid submissive Barbie dolls, the world will be a better, more honest place.
Alex (3) hit it with confidence. As well as a woman who knows the health aspects of a toned body, then eyes, face and great teeth. A woman who knows how to take care of themself and know what they want. I have one just like that. Without all the glitz and high maintenance.
