Musings on a Muggy Morning

By now you all have pretty much figured out that I have a broad range of attraction: furry, smooth, bearded, goateed, mustachioed, clean shaven, muscular, voluptuous, white, black, brown, tall, short...but I always ALWAYS come back to the dark haired, olive-skinned, furry bearded man. Like Bret here, today's featured man. I think it's the whole "opposites" attract...I'm not that furry, I'm pasty white, and my hair is grey. What hair I have, that is. The fact that Bret here has a tattoo and is a nice guy (we chatted once) just adds to the attraction. My ex fell into this category. Well maybe not the nice guy bit. A man who made my ex jealous by paying attention to me fell into this category. And that adolescent fantasy included such a man.

What is it that makes one type more attractive than another? Why are there preferences for what we find attractive? Is it because looks are usually the first thing we have to go on? I know someone who only is attracted to black men. I know someone who doesn't care for Hispanic/Latino men. I know someone who only likes redheads (he's straight). I find it curious, these rules of attraction.

What attracts you? If you're partnered, does your partner fit your ideal? Are you physically opposite? Or are you similar in build, coloring, etc? Show the Behr some love and leave a comment!

Funily enough, If you lose the tattoo, I do look like Bret here...

I have so many taste. I can say I truly have a type. But I do like daddies

My tastes are narrow I suppose. I have a visual attraction to body hair and dark hair. Dark skin attracts me too. Tattoos and piercings and other mutilations are a turn-off. As for size, bigger is better. On my list, a 300+ pound NFL lineman would be tops. Or bottom :-) And older is much better.

I'd hate to say "I ain't particular" but...Sometimes I like the opposite of me:the southern CA blonde with blue eyes. Just to admire really. I still like a hairy crotch in this day of out-of-control manscaping. It's not always the best looking ones that I remember fondly.

I'm versatile but prefer a bigger, chubbier guy if I'm on top and a more rugged chap if I'm going to bottom. Is that weird?

Like you (surprise!) my taste in men is rather diverse. However I do have a favorite type: muscular/thick, dark hair, facial hair, body hair. In a strange and likely undeserved twist of fate, I wound up with just such a partner. Physically we are just about opposite from each other.
