Oh, sure, the guy’s body was important, but it’s his face that had always captured my attention first. Because it’s his face that I had to stare at 95% of the time during our interactions.
But, now, I feel a change in the air.
After reading Bonnie Edward’s blog about What is Sexy? and writing my guest blog titled I Need a Man – both at Naughty and Spice – I’ve been forced to admit the obvious.
That I’m becoming a total body girl – broad shoulders, rock hard abs, muscled thighs … There is no body part that I won’t admire (though I will admit that feet are at the bottom of my list).
And, if that wasn’t enough, I fear that I’m becoming attracted to men in uniforms.
While walking down the street last week, a police officer stopped me. Was my heart racing because my mind was scrambling to determine which law I’d broken? Or was it racing because of the muscular body and flat stomach encased in the navy uniform? The authoritative hand-on-the-holster stance? Or the half-smile playing on his face and the mystery lurking behind the sexy shades? When he asked me for my number, I decided that the law was not the source of my thrill.
Then, there are the men in motorcycle leathers. Now, until I bought a bike and started riding, I was completely immune to the appeal. But now, one glimpse of a muscled chest, back, or thigh encased in leather as a big, gleaming, bike passes by me and my heart does this odd little jump.
So is it just me – or do you find that what you once found physically attractive about a man is changing?
And while I have you thinking about men, please stop by the SEX LOUNGE Finding Derek CONTEST and check out the hunky guys competing to be Derek Mitchell, the hero of Sex Lounge. (And don’t forget to click on their photo #2s, as those are the somewhat risqué ones).
Best,
Rachelle
Rachelle,
He asked for your number??!! (I noticed how you nonchalantly slipped that into the middle of things…as if we wouldn’t notice) LOL
So…did he get it?
And, I think, sweets, you’re a little slow if you’re just now realizing that long legs clad in black leather wrapped around a throbbing, thrusting engine are sexy. Maybe more than a little slow.
One day, we’ll have a quiet chat about what’s what….
Bonnie (shaking her head…so sad. when I think of all those bods you’ve been ignoring…)
by Bonnie Edwards · July 9th, 2007 at 1:56 pmYes, I was hoping you didn’t notice that one, Bonnie. And, yes, he did get my number.
Well, I don’t mean that I didn’t realize it at all. It’s just that … I’m not sure I let myself get into the whole staring, drooling, all out-and-out lust attack thing. LOL Now, I do so enjoy it. Makes me feel like one of the guys!
And don’t feel sad for me, Bonnie. I’m making up for lost time. And now that I’m older and wiser, I’m so much better able to appreciate a good bod when I see one.
Thanks for your comment …
by Rachelle Chase · July 9th, 2007 at 2:11 pmLOL…so many different things catch my eye, but it’s a sense of humor that caught my heart…and thirty-five years later he still makes me laugh. Of course, he’s not bad on the eyes, either! I like that long, lean, rangy look, the big hands, big feet, ropey muscles that come from hard work and not a gym. And I DO look at feet. Bare feet, long and narrow, a dusting of hair across the top. Something inherently sexy in a man’s bare feet…especially if the rest of him is just as bare.
by Kate Douglas · July 9th, 2007 at 5:39 pmI was just going for the lust factor here, Kate. But, I’m totally with you on the heart - it definitely takes more that a face and body to capture the heart. So happy to hear yours is going strong after 35 years!
Long, lean, and rangy is a good look, too. I’ll try to work on the feet - maybe develop some sort of foot fetish but … right now, feet just make me smile. LOL
Thanks for the comment, Kate!
by Rachelle Chase · July 9th, 2007 at 5:54 pmI’ve been checking out the guys at your Finding Derek site, and I think I can sum it up in one word–YUM!
by Lucinda Betts · July 10th, 2007 at 9:54 amThanks, Lucinda.
Yeah, I agree - I think there are some hotties there, too.
