I gained a new perspective on sexy this afternoon while watching the reality show, "Tough love." Yes, I watch reality shows from time to time. If you aren't familiar with the show I'm talking about, here's a link to what the show's about: Tough love.
Sexiness can mean different things to different people as I have blogged about in the past. Well, in this episode, the ladies were allowed to pick something sexy to wear and were then photographed in a variety of positions on a couch. They pretty much posed in ways they thought were sexy.
Afterwards, a few men sat and looked at the pictures of the ladies posing on a tv screen for their review. When all was said and done, there were four things that these guys felt were sexy: eye contact, smiles, confidence and fun. I agree that these things are sexy, but I also realized that clothes can be sexy too. I hadn't realized this before. I kind of knew it, but now it sunk in.
I know, how can someone not realize that clothes can be sexy? I guess you've never known a guy that was really that basic about things, huh?

I love that show, "Tough Love". I have missed the last episode so I need to catch up. I love how he's so blunt with the women!
ReplyDeleteI think its the wearer that makes the clothes sexy. I mean, you can dress me up in a britney spears costume and its not going to be very hot. Of course if I made eye contact, smiled, was confident and had fun, I might come out OK.
ReplyDeleteI absolutely agree. It's mostly about the person and how the person acts. I have found though that, for example, a lady wearing a guys shirt can be sexy. If she acts a certain way in that shirt, she can become even sexier :)
ReplyDeleteThanks for your input!
You know Queen, it appears to me that a few of these woman actually need that kind of reality from him.
ReplyDeleteI agree with Singlutionary. It's definitely the wearer. If you've ever seen two people wearing the same kind of outfit while looking completely different, you'll understand what I mean.
ReplyDeleteWow Monique, that's the perfect example for the point of view! Wish I thought of it lol. What I'm trying to say I guess is that a simple shirt to one guy may be sexy, while another guy may just see a shirt.
ReplyDeleteWhat if someone is wearing something completely ugly...can a wearer still feeling sexy...all the time? :)
ReplyDeleteYou know HSG, that's a very good question! I don't think they can feel sexy all the time, but yes, sometimes. It would depend on the person I think. And also, isn't sexy relative? One man's garbage is another man's treasure ;)
ReplyDeleteI think that when women plan to dress sexy we make choices based on what criticisms we might receive from other women in addition to what a man will find sexy. I think that is why we often forget about the simple things that men appreciate like a smile and eye contact.
ReplyDeleteTina, what a great answer! It would be great if woman remembered the simple things all the time :)
