Happy Friday all!

Ladies, do you ever feel like men are only looking for women who weigh under 100 lbs.?

Well, as a “slenda tenda,” I think slim women will always be in, but guys appreciate a woman with “some meat on her bones” much more in the south. I think different body types and images are better celebrated in the south, and that’s a good thing.

Have any of you ever felt accosted from the opposite end — people accusing you of being too skinny?

I do feel that people are more comfortable making “skinny” jokes. If the same type of jokes were made about bigger people it would be mean or cruel. Truth be told, everytime I see myself in pictures, I marvel at just how thin I am. I really have to work at keeping my weight up or I’ll just waste away. LOL Since I’ve been thin my whole life, I’m comfortable in my own skin, but I do want to make sure I stay at a healthy weight and keep the few curves I do have.

P.S. Thanks Bella for giving a shout out to the “technical issues” the blog is experiencing. Just keeping us informed will appease us, just so we know you aren’t abandoning us. :-)

Personally, I don’t think the “model look (as I call it)” is attractive at all. Since my first expperience with dating a mature woman (she was 36, I was 24), I have always admired and was a attracted to the mature woman. I loved the curves, the confidence, the experience and the conversation level. The “thin craze” exhibited in hollywood and media does nothing more than make people look emaciated and sickly. When I was 35, I dated a 50 yr. old for six months and promptly resigned myself to “I can’t keep up with her.” Presently, I am married to a beautiful 48 yr. old woman and I’m 44. When I met her, she drove me crazy with her confidence and maturity. My experiences of trying to “go with the norm” and date younger women than me just frustrated and disenchanted. They were self centered, insecure and basically had to be told when to breathe in and breathe out. Intimately, a 20 something is bringing a pocket knife to a gun fight when compared to a 40 yr. old woman. Keep your anorexics, your bulimics and the people that just stop eating when they gain 5 pounds. If I had to profile the perfect woman, she would be 42, 5’6” and 135 lbs. I thought that when I was 25 and the older I got, the older they got. That’s unfair to place that on anyone, but I’m trying to say that I wanted a WOMAN, not a GIRL.

But theres something to be said about Dave’s point, Red.

I’ve always dated older women (and loved it). Talking to someone around my own age is like bringing a knife to a gun fight. I’ve said it before on here, there’s a calmness, a security and a greater sense of self that I enjoy in dealing with older women.

Not to say young women don’t have it, some do, but those are so few and far between the norm that statistically they don’t count.

Not to mention the other side of it, older women know themselves in a way that even fewer younger women do. I don’t know whether it’s age or experience or the calm after the storms, but give me an aged single malt over a shot any day.

Morning, all. :-)

“Men, what’s your true ideal when it comes to the appearance of a woman? And what are you happy with, realistically?”

No need for me to elaborate on how I feel about the whole “physical appearance” thing. Ya’ll already know. LOL! Suffice it to say, however, she must be hygienic and carry herself in such a way that it exudes self-confidence, yes, but not so much that it comes across as her using her physical attributes to draw attention to herself.

I’m okay with someone who might be a little salubrious about herself, but I can’t stand vanity in a woman. Beauty and humility can co-exist.

On topic: A woman with good mental and physical health is a great start. I know a few women that stay sick or under pressure. Everything disrupts their system. My theory is the pressure of being alone is killing that azz.

It is a shame that folks let Hollywood determine how they should look. Without lipo, nose jobs, rib removals, azz implants, steroids and human growth hormone most of those folks wouldn’t be what they appear. Take a look at Pamela Anderson without makeup. Now I know why her hubbies all screamed fraud.

The beauty in women has never been in what the media tries to sell us anyway. The real beauty is in her spirit. What she brings to the table. Fine makeup can’t cover up a mugged up personality.

Jamo if you pop in today shoot me an email at atlred01@yahoo.com. I have something for you.

Ared what size are you anyway?

Simi for breakfast I have an assortment of danishes and rolls, omelets cooked to order, various juices and bottled water, 3 types of thinly sliced meats, french toast and waffles along with a variety of fruits. Also, for the ladies ( and some of the “softer” guys) I have a gift bag filled with varios perfumes, a card, a personalized Tiffany’s bracelet/necklace combo with matching key fob, and a dozen roses. I also have 3 massage tables set up and those services will be available until 11 am. Eat well and enjoy a day of peace.

AmazonRed, that is a big part of it, but with a mature woman, her body fills out and she has the curves. I’ve seen some mature women in my gym that have just starved themselves skinny and that doesn’t look good at all, either. Now, I don’t like women that are overweight, but a woman with curves or even what is often called a “thick” woman is SO much more attractive than the sticks and bones that we see in the media. The SI Swimsuit issue doesn’t make me glance past the cover as they just look so malnourished and pasty. Hips are a MUST! My wife sometimes says she is overweight and has a ghetto booty, but GAWD what a booty it is! She has a thin waist, but she looks like a WOMAN. Yes, age is a big factor with me, but you need to have the curves of a woman (Cougar, anyone?). The Flockheart woman from Ali McBeal was just hio hum. Angelina Jolie is a BEAUTIFUL woman, but she has just wasted away to nothing. Her arms and legs just look like a stiff wind would break her. No thank you.

To every entity there is a law. The body has a law. There is such a thing as the ideal weight. There are three ideal weights for every height based the bone structure. If you don’t know what yours should be check with your doctor. Ten pounds over the text book ideal weight is healthy and still looks good. (I have a friend that’s a doctor).

A woman’s body is supposed to have a certain corpulence of curves. Those Paris Hilton types have skewed the minds of society. It ain’t pretty. If you look back on historical art you will see what a typical woman’s body should closely resemble. Now not all of us will be so gracefully proportioned but it gives you a good idea. Yes there are some born to skinnies and some born to be plumps. But you can over do it.

on topic: i have had my times when i thought all men wanted a waif. i have been curvy my whole life. it can be challenging sometimes on the dating scene being to big to be skinny but to small to be big. let’s not even talk about buying clothes…lol. at the end of the day, i continue to work on appreciating the look and the purpose of all this body. it’s a hard job but someone has to do it…lol.

i don’t have a preference of body type with men. i just like a man who’s fit and takes care of himself. not super muscular, just good solid man weight…lol. as long as there’s not a whole lot of stomach involved, i’m cool.:)

Morning all! TGIF!

Wow Bella what an interesting topic. It’s funny that because I am not some size sub zero chick, when I meet people they always assume I am from the south (Miami). That annoys me because not every girl in NY is a walking skeleton! I am a size 8 and I work out now 2 times a day, 6 days a week to change that. If given the choice I would chose to be a size 2. I think skinny girls get approached/treated differently than the curvy girls. When you are skinny, there is really no body to look at so they look at your face first. With me, I think my azz gets the first look and then they look at my face. However, with the skinny girls I do not think they think as sexually based as they do with a curvy girl. Now…I HATE the word thick! I think it’s a horrible word! If you want to send me into a frenzy..call me thick and see if I do not go off on you! I have ended things wiht a guy for that! I see the really fats chicks calling themselves thick and I do NOT want to be in the same realm as fat. So of course I get offended. Heck, now they are calling themselves curvy and that word is being taken to the extreme. So now I just say..don’t describe my body at all. Just leave it alone. Along with all the BS I have dealt with from men…I think another reason I choose to be single is because I hate some over-sexed dude thinking because of your body you want to be treated like some sexpot who wants it all the time. Just because I have an azz does not mean I want to be groped! I have a mind and feelings…I’m not just a body!

In the age of Hollywood…I tell you, it can make you hate your body to the point of getting dressed in the dark so you don’t have to look at it. Sometimes..it’s not about what men want…it’s how you feel about you. I have a friend who is a 0 and said she would switch bodies with me..and I told her I’d switch with her.

*Child of Houston, Brown reportedly slit wrists. Web reports have it that the 15-year-old daughter of singers Whitney Houston and Bobby Brown was committed to a psych ward after a recent suicide attempt. Bobbi Kristina, who was first introduced to the public as a chubby child on the Bravo TV reality show “Being Bobby Brown,” allegedly tried to slit her own wrists. The teenager had allegedly tried to attack Houston with a razor and fought with her mother because she no longer wanted to live with the singer. Recent Web photos circulating show Bobbi Kristina and her older sister in suggestive poses, holding unidentified beverages in plastic cups.

My youngest son is crazy about Raven Symone but my oldest would tease and she is fat. Well to each his own. The boy likes what the boy likes.

The said part about the anorexic syndrome is these girls are not subjecting themselves to such anguish because they are afraid a boy/man doesn’t want a girl/woman with curves, but they are doing so because they believe this is what society says is perfect. Or ideal.

I exercise four days a week. I drink plenty of water. And try to eat fairly healthy. I am not stick figure nor do I want to be. I am happy with my body. And I don’t hear my husband complaining. Well he has said that my breasts are just aight. But for the most part we both are fine with it.

Staceye - Well, I am please to report that you can stop working out to get to a size 2. If you do, you will probably STILL have azz. So you’ll still get the same attention.

Also, in terms of approach, girls who are a size 2 have to hear “I’ve always wanted to sex a girl with a model shape.”

All this to say, each size has their own unique issues. So just get to a size that you’re happy with and call it a day!

SJ i’ve talked to my friends about that case as well. that was some skrait BS on that lady’s part. makes it bad for women who actualize are victimized. 12:30 a.m.??? a hot shower??? come on now, sounds like a hot azz gone cold when she couldn’t get what she wanted…probably a commitment from ole boy, money or both. it’s never cool to pull the rape card….her azz needs to be in jail.

Have any of you ever felt accosted from the opposite end — people accusing you of being too skinny? Maybe at birth but from then on no…. What’s your ideal body type when it comes to men? I am overweight but I do not like other overweight men. Someone with a huge belly is a turn off. Other than that I am not picky. And what are you willing to settle for?

When you look at cha self in the mirror do you see flaws, yeah we all do. But for those of us that can look in the mirror and see what we like about ourselves (the smile, the hair, the curve of the trapezious muscle) live in a different world. That whole syndrome about worrying about what you look like to someone else is almost pathological. So say kcuf it and move on.

And Stace, you’re in the south, good booty down here is a tradeable commodity, like gold, silver, gas. Bet that matter of fact, you could get your gas tank filled simply by puttin on some bikin shorts, standing by the pump, pretending to look for your wallet.

Usually, the ones that “look like models” or have breast implants thnk they are doing YOU a favor by letting you go out with them. I’ll take the woman next door who keeps herself in shape naturally. I once dated a Hawaiin Tropic swimsuit girl for a few months. She was nice to have on my arm, but she thought every man would do back flips for her and the sex was about as vanilla as it gets. Like my uncle told me “No one likes a beautiful woman more than I do, but they’re so much dayum trouble!” I’m sure this goes equally for the guy with the Brad Pitt body. Great to look at, but once you take the wrapping off it’s like, “That’s IT?”

And of course you may hyphenate. For example I am avg-thick, 5’2 138 lbs. I agree with Staceye in regards to men seeing the rear first then the face- it is annoying because it is so much more to me. I am in the processing of shedding a few pounds so we shall see if anything changes. :)

I don’t know how to type half of a hi-5, so I won’t try.

But, Vic, you’re half right, the sex is kinda vanilla, till you turn her out. Sex with most women can be like that until the “inner freak” is scratched and then hold on….

The other part is that a beautiful woman has insecurities too. Most women do, the choice we make as men (good vs. bad) is to exploit those insecurities for our own needs; or to try and build her up out of them. Let her know that you think the snaggletooth is sexy, etc…

How about 44 yr.s old, 6’4, 215lbs., former pro tennis player, worked out 5 days a week, runs 3 miles a day. I get told I’m skinny all the time. I like the body type that I have and have no mdesire to look like a Greek Adonis, nor will I ever let myself go. I have to keep my weight down so I can move around on the court. I’ll never be rock hard muscle at 250 lbs, but people keep telling me to put on more weight.

Good Morning All,

Raqi I agree with the law about body types..everyone does not look the same(even twins) so what works for some will not work for others..it is what it is. You like what you like. My son loves Raven too..but I think he is going to have a thing for older women period. He also like Hannah Montana,Vaneesa Huggins(sp-the dark haired girl from HighSchool Musical) All three Cheetah girls and some little girl he saw at a volunteer project.

ThirdWheel Honey your problem may not be weight..but self. I dont mean self-esteem. I mean you may just not like yourself. Because I know my size has never, kept me from dating. EVER. I meet all kinds of men who like all kinds of women, short, tall, thick, thin…whateva. I have met men who told me all I check for is a pulse if she is breathing she can get it. But if you think bad about yourself, well then you are going to give off that vibe.

Lunch is usually a turkey with mozzorella cheese light mayo on wheat. Mid aftre noon snack is an apple or a berry fruit salad (strawberries, bluebrries & blackberries) dinner is lean meat (chicken or fish) with a veggie. more berry salad before bed. I do 30-35 minutes cardio during lunch then and hour when I get home and I weight train only 2 times a week because I do not want to gain weight. I have muscualr legs so I do lots of reps with mo more than 20 lbs of weight. Oh yeah I belly dance for 2 and a half hours on Saturday and Thursday. I used to ball room dance but I no longer have time for it.

Ladies, do you ever feel like men are only looking for women who weigh under 100 lbs.? I personally think 100 lbs is wafer thin but I do think guys are looking for women who are @ 160 lbs. I’ve asked a few of my male friends and all of them have said 160 lbs is an attractive weight on a woman especially when it’s in the right place like the boobs, butt and the hips.

Have any of you ever felt accosted from the opposite end — people accusing you of being too skinny? All the time, I am a small framed woman, I’m happy with my weight and I work hard to maintain my weight to height ratio. And even though I’m 143 lbs I’m still considered overweight by my nutrionist. Go figure!

* What’s your ideal body type when it comes to men?* Forget the six pack I want him to have an eight pack! Phycially fit is the way of life.

One great thing about this city is you can most definitely have your pick of a customized mate when it comes to height, weight, complexion, etc.

Sometimes ppl hear with a negative connotation where none was meant. Stace What are you allowing to dictate your guideline? I’ve never heard a guy call a girl ‘thick’ without admiration in his tone! True, some are in denial but it’s not always the case. I know I’m full figured and I also know I have curves. It really is possible! Clothes fit the hips, too loose at the waist, tops cut for flat chested mannequins or stocky football players… Headaches for all no matter what size when you’re shapely. And with so much variety on the market and no one size fits all mentality, just know: some dude is always gonna look at some girl as a tasty treat cuz regardless of her body type she’ll be just the type he likes. Plus, men will say they wanna try a big girl/tall girl/light skinned girl for fill in the blank reasons but it’s really just that they wanna hit… Whatever, we should all listen to Mary & Work What We Got!

Cee Hmmph, indeed! They fascinated w/ that brotha. He ain’t even the Head Butler in Charge, but shol was the highlight. P.S. Yesterday 7-11 so wrong, it’s right. They heard snickers, punishment —> Hotel.

I haven’t seen those “thinspo videos” myself. But I am concerned.

My mother was very good at instilling a healthy self-esteem for her 3 daughters. We even took “self-esteem” dance classes. LOL.

I remember going thru puberty and being upset because I was too thin, or my nose and lips were too big, and having braces. My mother told me something then that changed the view of myself forever. Essentially she told me sooner I accept myself the way I am, flaws and all, the better off I’d be. No use crying over things you can’t change, so embrace it and make it work for you.

Life got so much easier and carefree for me after that.

Ladies, do you ever feel like men are only looking for women who weigh under 100 lbs.?

under 100? no. but certainly in the 125-145 range … depending on height. i def. got more attention at 140 than i do at 175 (i’m 5’7”).

mind you, i’m okay with my weight, although i wish my tummy would magically become flat and non jiggly, but i’m honest about the fact that if i were slimmer, i’d probably have a roster of dudes right now.

my ideal dude? talk and slim. i like a swimmer / former b-baller kind of build with manly soft muscles. min. height 5’11” swooning my FB fits the bill… now if he weren’t so trifling in other ways …

Angie, sad to say, but I couldn’t date a woman that didn’t do SOMETHING to stay active. Even thin ladies that only diet have no tone to them and look like just mannaquins that hold their clothes up. It’s harsh, yes, but I need a woman that at least SHARES that lifestyle. I expect myself to do everything I can to keep myself attractive to my partner, whatever that may be (unless she gets off on fatties). It’s different lifestyles for different folks, but that’s just my take. Better health breeds better self image, breeds confidence, breeds sexuality and confidence. I include myself in that equation, too. If I just sit on my behind and say “Love me the way I am…even if I get FAT” shows little get up and go to me. In other words…laziness. But that’s just me.

mytwocents I go on how I look in the mirror. I know a guy says thick with good intentions..but as I said having every girl who is fat calling herself that has turned into an ugly word for me just curvy voluptious. I the words were initially used to describe the hourglass figure but has been used and abused to the point of total insanity. Like I hard these really bug girls say that they wer curvy…but fat rolls do not count as curves! I do not think Monique is curvy, thick, voluptious, etc….I think she is fat. That booty is not round, it is wide and flat. If you got more gut than butt, ummmmm that is fat. So I think that is why I hate those words so much.

Good Morning all BLOW is in the BUILDING SNITCHES!!

I agree….Kym @ 11:29. I completely agree. It’s all in the way you keep yourself UP. Any woman at any size can be hot. Be it a 2 or 14. Honestly being and living in the south most women here are a 12 or 14. So I don’t see where is the enormous picks of 2’s or 4’s in ATLANTA. I think ppl have to expect and appreciate who they are. Yeah work it out and cut back. Trust me you will feel and eventually look better.

More importantly trying to snag the one. It’s gonna have to be more than your body! I have seen Ms. Hourglass get passed up and tossed up like spinach salad because she has NO BRAINS and sitting there wondering why she is just a JUMPOFF…LOL. Then I have seen women who have excellent mates and they are ALWAYS ghetto, bad body and getting the works. Put on pedestals by their men.

So Thirdwheel I don’t know what you are talking about. You better have you’re mind right if you want a THOROUGHBRED Man. Initially, attraction is the first thing but the connection and your mind decide if you are worth being wifed- in. I think women of all sizes can be very attractive….The slim chicks be rockin it….and the thick fluffy chicks too.. If you asked EVERY woman on this blog..PHYSICALLY what we would want our men to look like. Every one of us would have a different view. Ppl are like ice cream…everyone does not like the same flavor. I hate chocolate….but love strawberry!

This entry prompted me to do some extensive people watching while sitting in the courtyard at lunch. After viewing all types of people, different races, heights, and sizes I can reaffirm that attractiveness is what you exude and not what you are. I noticed some of what society may call less attractive faces that were dressed to the utmost of glam. I mean looked finer that fine. And then I spotted some cute faces that were, as my husband refers to Halle Berry, just typical. Dressed typical, looked typical. Just blended in with the ordinary.

Does anyone have one of those days when you just want to tell your coworkers off and go home?? Geez….. 2CPTG I got one of those people in my office. Just brought a Mercedes and told us it was a two seater… We sneak down in the parking deck to look at it and the stupid car seats 4 people and it’s the “basic” Mercedes…. Why do people buy those cars knowing well they can’t afford the maintenance on them???

Well, I have experienced both sides of the coin…so to speak. I weighed 200 lbs. by the time I was 16 yrs old. I spent the vast majority of my formative years being ridiculed and humiliated for being overweight. Guys were not attracted to either as a big girl. But I learned how to make peace with my body issues as a means of surviving the cruelty and the pain it caused…now, I have lived the flip side for the last 30 years…what I find so interesting having been on each sid of the issue is how much emphasis ppl put on other ppl’s weight and size. My simple rule of thumb for me is this…my wardrobe spnas 27 years and if I can still get my arse in some of the same things this year from last year or before…then I am a happy arse sistah with my size…and until that ain’t happening anymore…chuck em

Speaking for the tall men, let me say that you are defrauding the men that date you. I see tall women and immediately look at their feet to see if they have on heels. And when they do, no matter how fine she is…I have to walk away.

On the rare occassions that I have stayed, the relationships didn’t last long as I insisted that she keep the heels on during…

I like em in the 4 to 6 range. I can only go up to a 10 and maybe even a super bad built right 12, but her confidence to pull it off has to be there.. Anything after that, makes the Pilot’s scrub.

Question any dude that plans on having children should understand the process involves weight gain. I’m shooting the cats that said they’d tell ol girl she’s fat. A real dude would keep the exercise, if nothing but short walks, up until the last minute. That helps the weight loss after childbirth. They should also do the daily cocoa butter on the body thing to minimize stretch marks.

Hey M People put emphasis on weight and size because it’s starrng us in the face everyday from every angle We see it on tv, movies and even the news anchors are all slim and trim. Size matters, it shouldn’t be that way but it does. Small size means healthy large size means unhealthy says the medical field, I had my annual check up last week and my doctor told me I need to lose about 8 lbs since the older I get the slower my metabolism is plus I need to be on point with my height to weight ratio.

Staceye Sometimes it is best to come out of your shell and feel good and confident with what God gave you. One mans trash is another mans treasure. I don’t know what you have been through, but someone will love you. Even in the morning hair undone, cold in your eyes, breath stank, and while you were passing gas in your sleep. So just chill out and love you and the life that you have been given.

Small size means healthy large size means unhealthy says the medical field

So ppl think…at my smallest I wore a size 6, but my small size was due to Upper and Lower GI issues that did not allow me to eat adequately…so I was at my thinnest in my life, but I was also unhealthy…I was in better sahpe healthwise @ 16 and weighing 200 lbs. Although I was large but I have always had very muscular athletic legs-so I ran sprints, bicycled, played volleyball, etc. I just ate alot more than I burned off…so I do not believe that thin always means healthy…I am at my most comfortable and healthy size in a 10 petite for this 38-28-38 sistah all day long…shyte…yesterday a brother almost jacked the car in front of him because he was too busy looking at my legs and arse moving in my mini skirt to pay attention to the road…lol

It’s the kinda walk you see in movies…

The one models practice for hours on end…

Her hips move slighty side to side as she places each foot on the ground softly, and slowly. In graceful strides.

Her posture is correct, even the contour of her body seems built to support that walk.

The best part of it is that she is unaware of her effect, or maybe that she is and doesn’t care.

Good Afternoon, ALL!!! Finally, Friday is here!!!

This place has def got me workin’ like a Hebrew on the Nile! (my brain is so fried right now!!!)…so as usual, I’ll attempt to post when time allows me.

Wassup, Island G, Leggs and Staceye!!!

@ Truth: Wassup!….gotcha’ on your 9:58 post.

@ For Real: You’re hilarious!!!

On Topic: I absolutely love my curves and other “womanly attributes,” despite what the masses thinks or attempts to persuade mainly African American women, esp. If that is the case, why are there so many non-African American cultures spending thousands to create the desired affect of simply having – MORE. Mo’ @$$, mo’ hips, mo’ lips, and mo’ titts ….we see them all the time at the GYM, doing squats, sculpting their thighs, etc…then turn around and tell us (in so many words), we have too much @$$- yet u goin’ for broke, trying to find a cosmetic surgeon to finance a “new & improved booty” for ya….we’re too dark, yet science has developed a new way of tanning and how to do-it-yourself bronzer, simply b/c you’ve also been rejected and charged for being too pale or “high yellar.” Heyal, I could go on, but this post was meant to be brief.
What I am saying is somehow our Nubian Sistahs have gladly switched roles and a lot of us are truly convinced of this.….or we feel as if a man would approach us differently if we would just “down play” ourselves somewhat?!…you betta embrace your rich skin tones, varied hair textures, so full and luscious lips and the walk in your stride from your shapely hips. Their have been plenty of men of various nationalities who have simply given me compliments from my hair to my smile, from the way I walk and carry myself to my style, but I pay more attention to how they approach me. All I ask is that they be mindful to keep it tasteful and respectful and let’s both keep it going (as in - I go my way and you go yours). Men that approach with such disrespect would probably come atcha’ in the same manner if you were fully clothed or worse – with no azz at all! So, I’d look at it like buddy did you a favor, letting you know up front what he is about and doesn’t deserve you. I find men who are this way, are like this b/c of their outlook on women in general. Don’t change unless thru self reflection you see there is a need to do so. (Now thinking of The Isley Bros – “It’s important to meeee…that you know you are freeeee don’t change, don’t change…girrrrllll”)…..alright now. But I’m happy about who I am mostly, and for me, being a size 6 was too dayum skinny for my structure, even though I am 5’4. I am now a size 10 and I love it!!! Everything is well proportioned for ME, from the tone to the texture to how my clothes compliment my figure….and as it has already been said before, it’s all in the way you carry yourself – speaks a thousand words of who you really are underneath all that Maybelline, good thing for me I have been told I do not need a lick of it or even mistaken for having it on…so only on special occasions or whenever I feel like being bothered with it, I wear very little…if anything I think make up brings about certain flaws to your skin and face, so that you’ll have to wear it all the time – JMO. ~sorry so long, I had to make up from yesterday …(keekeekee)

Villian outside of the walk what other simple sexy’s of a woman catch your eye?

Whitebread told me that before he ever approached me, the way that I would take two fingers and push my hair back was the sexiest thing to him. Ironically for me it is just a habit that I have had for a long time. But for him it meant something.

Dan & Filthy The right walk can stop traffic, turn heads, make women mad, make preachers stop in the middle of a sermon, make Tyra rethink modeling, make a monk break his vow of silence “Dymn”, make a blind man see, make a 3 year old and his daddy connect on that level, make a teacher give that mommas child a passing grade, make the butcher at publix take out the freshest cut of meat, make fish jump out of water, and make a Que stop in the middle of hopping (stepping) and chase her down on the yard. That is what a walk can do!

I love to love a woman who loves to walk in heels. Turn that 5’3 into 5’7. Turn 5’10 into 6’1, and turn 6’0 into OMG!!!! Calf muscles and all.

Similac I got it yesterday at B&N. 14 dollars plus 20% off got me to 11 plus change. It’s almost 300 pages so I have to get reading.

Blow quit trying to front like you work at a law firm. You work fries and shakes 6-2 at McD’s. Me and For Real recognized the full mustache and unibrow the moment we saw you. BTw, congrats on the promo to cash register. Blow, are you a chunky chick? LOL alot of chunky chicks get real agitated when they haven’t eaten in 30 minutes. That may explain why you come in here huffin and puffin all the time. LOL I say you’re about 5’3 and 240. Am i close?

Third Everyone knows your business because you talk to much.. Its hard to get into my circle so i keep my personal business closely guarded.. I can small talk you to death about nothing all day but when you try to get into my personal business I dont even get into that with you because the more people know about you the more they can use it against you.. They know what hurts you so they push those buttons.. Relax and button up your lips.. For instance.. I dont need to know aboout your Polycystic ovaries.. Just say you have issues that limit your weight loss.. And if you want to be specific say I have female issues that limit my weight loss.. Problem solved..

@Raqi/M’Karyl

Sexy is as sexy does. It’s that spark that the person sees in you that defines how sexy you are to him and he to you.

On the other hand, no. modesty prevents further ranting

But it’s subconscious most times. You aren’t even aware you’re doing it. But you can tell the one’s trying too hard too

@QDT The monk, the 3 YO and dad…. fuunneeeee.

Jamoca I feel you on your post, but the ish was too long lol. Lucky for you our blog police officer got caught in traffic. Anyhoo, I feel you on how once again as African Americans we allow others to tell us what they think is attractive.

All my life I was uncomfortable with my weight because I was very skinny (I was called Olive Oyl from the Popeye cartoon). Being from the islands, that skinny look is not considered appealing. Once I entered my thirties I started gaining weight in the right places and trust me I would never trade in what I got for a size 3. I’m a size 9 and 5’9’ in height. I got it and love it.

LOL at my habits.

I have been noticed on at least three of my habits. Nothing that I do on purpose or even realize that I am doing.

When I am just sitting idle, waiting for whatever, I have a habit of taking off my shades and tracing the outside of my lips. I never really gave it much thought until one day The Man touched the edge of my lip. When I asked him what? he just raised his eyebrows and a gave a devilish grin.

This guy that used to work here drew my attention to the way I cross my legs and let my shoe dangle freely sometimes dropping to the floor. One day he asked can I help you put that back on? I told him no you can look up my skirt. LOL

I can say that my pole classes have made me more self aware. I’m the girl that used to walk around town totally oblivious that folks were even looking. (I mean, even if they aren’t trying to holla, I’m still tall as hell). I’m used to fixing my stance as to not tower over people and intimidate people.

Now I find myself constantly aware of my stance and posture. I’ve noticed I’m buying taller stilettos and even platform heels. I wanted people to take my mind more serious then the outer package but am even starting to relax on that too. LOL

Sunshine - You’re in good company here. We have some belly dancers and a couple of pole vixens on the blog.

Yeah, while always confident, I’ve always felt the need to surpress the “sexy” side, especially in a work environment. While I still tone it down at work, I’m ramping it up a little in other environments. I still plan to leave plenty to the imagination, but will push the envelope a little more in “accentuating the positive.” LOL
