SEX! and now that I've got your attention...
My last couple of posts didn't get much response... perhaps my blog needs to be more sexy. Perhaps if I load a picture of Matthew McCoughnahey or a Victoria's Secret model on here...
Sex sells, but I don't really know if it makes a product more enjoyable. Take Doritos, for example. I once read an article about sexiness in which the author fussed about how even Doritos are made to seem sexy, when there is nothing really sexy about chips that make you fat and leave cheese dust all over. You just can't make certain things sexy. Sorry. Those things really should remain neutral.
Sex appeal can certainly be found in the most curious of places. Like teeth. Josh Turner is a perfect example of sexy incisors (and a deep, sultry singing voice to boot!). Or eyebrows. Consider the heros of Legolas and Eomer from Lord of the Rings. Legolas might be entirely too beautiful were in not for those full, dark and ethereal eyebrows. Eomer's eyebrows are the eyebrows of a hero; sharp, strong and concentrated, always on the look out for danger to his sister or his king. Viggo Mortensen is a guy that breaks all the rules and makes layers and layers of sweat and grime the most sexy thing in the world; the guy just doesn't look good clean, but oh when he has some mud on him!
Sometimes you can have sex appeal in something outside your God-given appearances. Shoes can be very sexy for both sexes (though I've yet to see sexy feet). A man who wears clean, sharp shoes is hard to resist, and a girl can increase her appeal ten-fold by a sunning pair of stilettos. My psych prof says that the brain is our major sex organ, so us nerds should have tons of sex appeal, right? ^_~ I mean, don't you think is is way hot to perfectly put an integral into a calculator!!
But then, sex appeal doesn't always happen in real people. I can think of several animated characters that have got it in spades. Vincent from Final Fantasy Advent Children is very sexy, even with his pointy shoes. I've always had a crush on Aladdin, too. But then, I've always thought that Robin the fox from Disney's Robin Hood was way sexy. A friend pointed out that Simba had sex appeal even though he is a lion, though personally I think his son-in-law is far more attractive. I also heard someone say once that penguins are sexy... just penguins as they are. And after all that I've listed, who am I to judge the sex appeal of an animal that is always dressed to the nines!
Something tells me that I'd better quit now before I say too much more! I don't know if this has made my blog more sexy, but something tells me that I'll be getting comments on it anyway... ^_^

On the topic of Aragon, in reading FotR again I've come across this line: "As Frodo drew near he[Strider] threw back his hood, showing a shaggy head of dark hair flecked with grey, and in a pale stern face a pair of keen grey eyes." Beside that in the margin I wrote, "So hot right now." :D
And what about sexy hobbits?? I must say, Samwise and Rosie have just about the sexiest kiss out of the whole movie trilogy, even over Aragorn and Arwen. ;)

I personally think that penguins ARE pretty sexy, with their little waterproof tuxedos on all the time! I think that to other penguins though, they must not have much sex appeal, because they all look the same. Then again, to a penguin, I bet most humans look the same.
And, about the victoria's secret models... I think you'd start attracting a crowd you might not want reading you stuff. Like me. HA! jk, but I'm outro!

When it comes to sex appeal, I'm only too sure that a guy like me has less than even a cowboy boot-shaped Dorito. Thank God for a sweetheart who looks past my goofy exterior and into my... goofy... interior. Oh, dear heavens, that can't be good. :) Or, I dare say... perhaps it can be after all, thankfully.
And although I can't speak for all the choices of guys you made (that would be a bit... odd, to say the very least), I can certainly vouch for the beautiful sex appeal of actresses such as Grace Kelly or Catherine Zeta-Jones... not to mention the beauty of animated characters like Tifa or Aeris from Advent Children... and I don't know what anyone else thinks, but I think Belle from Beauty and the Beast is THE definition of lovely animation. ;)
