I have heard ladies say "Oh, he is sooooo sexy" about a guy passing by, that is not so good looking. I have also heard the ladies say "Oh, there is nothing sexy about that guy" but the man be very handsome. So, what makes a man "sexy"? Is it a look? Is it his clothing? Is it the way he walks?
What makes a man sexy?

Some guy walking by is not sexy. He could be good looking, but not sexy.
When I say a man is sexy, this is a determination about his bearing and demeanor, his behavior, his style, and his physical appearance. I don't always have an impression of all of that when some guy just passes me.

For me, it’s in the eyes, the way he holds himself. And if we get close enough? His scent. Not so much about his looks, although there are some very sexy hands.
To me, sexy = confident & undoubtedly masculine. That gives a lot of latitude... Doesn't need to be handsome or built or have a certain look. Jason Statham is sexy. Jason Momoa is sexy. They're pretty different in appearance but not in how they carry themselves.

For me the way he holds himself, his posture, his expression, his masculinity, the way he behaves. I like big burley guys so that would have a big part too X
Well, I wouldn't expect your opinions of what is considered "sexy" to match everyone else's. You just may have different preferences than those specific women.
There very well may be other women who would have similar preferences to what you think is attractive for a man. You just didn't happen to be with those women on those occasions.

Was with one of my dudes last night. The barber. He used to have this one gross tooth from a root canal that never got a crown. He got it crowned last week, and I noticed something I never noticed before. When he talks about certain topics, he kind of smiles some specific words, more than he speaks them. It's hard to describe. But his dimples pop out, and his teeth are exposed, and it's only certain words, and only if he's on certain subjects. When this happens, his eyes also brighten, and he looks youthful, powerful, happy. He's a kind man. I love to see him happy. I kept prompting him to speak at length about these things, just to watch the joy and excitement spread on his face. Long after I was tired of the subject matter, I poked him, quizzed him, just to see his face light up. I won't soon tire of the way his eyes look like chocolate en flambe, the way the strong set of his jaw relaxes, the deepening and shifting of dimples, the flashes of pearly white teeth. It was all I could do to watch without interrupting him with kisses. Eventually, the urge to kiss him won out, and he carried me back into the house to deliver exactly what I needed.
That animated talking style. It's sex appeal on stilts.

- Enid,
intelligence, quick wit, opinionated, resourceful, colorful, well-read, independent, strong work ethic, communicative
in addition to hot. like whatever i think is hot at the moment.
(currently blonde/ice blue, some muscles, wireframe glasses, dimples, rosebud cheeks, cupid's bow lips, brooks brothers suits -- this is specific to the last individual i found wildly exciting. this might change with the next person, who knows)

Currently I’m thinking Jason Mamoa and the Rock are sexy. I generally don’t like that big body types, but damn, their personalities are so big and friendly and fun. And they just seem like they wrap you up.
Oh my gawd that reminds me! Rem and I bought a car recently and one of the salesmen at the dealership looked SO MUCH like Momoa! Even Rem was saying he was a really good looking man. He was dressed super classy and was really nice/friendly too!
Wow, wonder if he sells a lot of cars. Momoa is really popular. I liked him on GoT, but love him in interviews. Funny, sweet and with this huge infectious laugh. He’s irresistible. Same with the Rock. Just so nice, funny, sweet with a great laugh. I’m a sucker for a great big laugh.
In a few words: confident, without being *eager* to have it be noticed.
Kindness, a quick wit, some manners/etiquette, some care taken with one's appearance (not necessarily in the sense of being super fashion forward), self-confidence (not to be confused for arrogance), a wicked smile, and a good laugh. Those are some darned sexy traits, in my opinion.

A papa bear is sexy. Some months ago, my Fireplug went to work and left his son with his cousin. I was to drop something off at the house, and leave it with the cousin, but his son was home alone and answered the door. I had only met him briefly, once. I gave him the parcel, but called the Fireplug before I left to see if he wanted be to go back and stay with him. He was very upset that his son was alone, and terrified that against all rules, he'd opened the door to me. I wasn't yet on the approved list of people for whom he should open the door. Fireplug went into full papa bear mode. And I loved it.
Jason Momoa is playing The Crow in the reboot *fangirl spaz-out*
Self-Quote of Unhappiness.
While searching for a make-up test photo to post *deep sigh* I stumbled across news that Momoa has exited the production.
*languish* Ouch my lil fandom heart.
I like Big Men. Personality, Laughter, Smiles, Tall, Broad, Ideas. All buffered by Southern Boy humility.
The boy defines sexy for men. Most of the men I find attractive are men who remind me of the boy in one way or the other.
Also. Tom Hardy.

My ex cries when someone makes a big sacrifice, and when he is a part of someone's happiness, just by doing what he's supposed to do. I always found that sexy.

Thinking some more, another ex saved my life once. He also cried, thinking how fragile my life could be, while telling others, in public, that nothing can happen to me. I think part of that was fear for me, induced by the fact that I knew what I needed to survive, and had to remain conscious long enough to tell him what to do for me. A minute or two more, and I would have been passed out, and he wouldn't have known what I needed. He recognized that I was strong enough to know I was dying, and still hold on long enough to delegate responsibilities so that my main mission would still be accomplished, and teach him what to do on the rare occasion my health is in crisis because I push myself too hard. That night, I had a fever, probably because going into shock lowers immune response. I came down with an awful virus. I was in and out of consciousness, but I was aware of his presence, just not clear about the passage of time. He medicated me, bathed me, changed my linens, made sure I was hydrated. Mostly he just held me. He spoke to me too. He was unabashedly emotional about my condition. At some point I made love with him. The care he showed was very appealing to me.
