I Love Men

Rate: 26 Flag

 Disclaimer -

These are just my thoughts on what I like about men. I'm pretty much just concentrating on the outside stuff, and yes, I KNOW there's so much more to a man than the physical. There've been fellow OSer's who've written similar things about women...and well...they've been kind of blasted. Please don't do that to me here. This is just meant to be light hearted and fun. 

 

I love men. Lots of them. Allllll kinds of them.... Tall - short. Skinny - Fat. Black - White. Young - Old. Hair - No Hair. Men in Kilts - Men in Jeans. And everything in between.

The other day at work, one of our maintenance crew was going up a ladder right outside my office. I happened to walk out and got a whiff of his soap from his morning shower. Bam! 

Today, an IT guy was in my office trying to fix my fax machine, and I caught a glimpse of tattoo's peeking out from his long sleeves. Before you know it, we were checking each others tattoo's out. Bam!

In line at a bookstore, I stood behind a man and stared at the back of his neck, where his hair was cut in a clean line. He had freckles. Bam!

The cardiovascular doctor who comes into our lab and works with my doc on occasion. (Well, I've had a crush on him for years, but shhh...) He looks better the older he gets. All I have to do is look at his hair and Bam! 

And with people I know...it's even more intense. I just love to look at them, talk to them, smell them, listen to them, watch them....

Check this out even...I talk to a friend on the phone, who doesn't even live here, and at times, the very sound of his voice makes my man-love radar go off. I'm into voices. 

Yeah. It hits me like that. I'm just innocently going along about my day, when these episodes hit me just like that. Yeah, I have a partner. No, I'm not lacking...I just like men. Being married to an intensely jealous guy for years, I was never allowed to indulge in my love for men. Frankly, I had no desire at that point anyway. So yes! Now that I'm free, I seem to be enjoying men an extra lot these days. And that just rocks.

There's just something about the virility of men. I like their arms, their backs, their hands, their faces...their eyes. Yes indeed.  I like the way they walk, they way they laugh at something funny, the way they engage in conversation, the way they flirt. 

God! I just love men! 

 Now, don't ask me whether or not I want to live with one. That's a whole other post!

Yep, I love 'em. Can't help it.
why would you want to help it?
Are you Cranky's secret girlfriend?
Gah! This is horrible, men are hairy and off-putting and gross. Sorrry, but that's just the way it is:\
Men are sexy and awesome and some have tramp stamps.. winks*
Except for Johnny Depp. I'd do Johnny Depp I think.

Wait, what?
Do I have to be kin-folk, in order to comment here?

{[R]}
Oh....it's YOU guys....
And what's wrong with that? ~R
Brian. Good point. Why DO I feel guilty? Left over marriage guilt. Sorry!
Leepin', Cranky and I haven't met yet. But loving men, I'd LOVE to meet him. Maybe you can introduce us. By the way, where do you get your hair done? I'm LOVING your "do"!
And no, you don't have to be kin-folk. In fact, having kin-folk comment on this post might even be a little weird....I dunno....
ditto. ditto. and ditto. bam.
Soap smell, BAM. Freckles, BAM. 2 day no shave, BAM. Ok. Oh yeah, Johnny Dep BAM BAM. Now J lynne, I am reduced to this, I feel guilty too.
Loved it. I didn't know women thought that way. R
I go to SuperCuts. I just ask for the "Larry Fine". They know me there. I'm a good tipper.

I really don't think that style would look good on you. Your hair looks very nice the way it is.
Nana - I've seen plenty of hairy and off-putting and gross men. This post is not intended for them. By the way, you need to shave your neck, k?
Fusun, I was just being modest. :) Nothing wrong at'all!
There are a few men in my life that give me extra BAM like adding some MSG- super flavored! (not the headache). It spices up my day, makes me feel sexier and honey at home reaps the bennies. HMMMMM. Kilts.
Chuck. Yes! That's exactly how it goes....I can't control it. But it's all good... :) I like it that way....
Amanda - yeah baby. Ditto... Don't you just want to eat them UP sometimes??
Trig, whatchoo talkin about a tramp stamp??? HMM???
Rita, I'm sayin'. ;) Two day no shave...damn, forgot about that one... I tend to stare at stuff like that..and forget what I'm supposed to be doing. And Johnny...skinny, strange fellow that he is...yeah...I'd do him.
I shave when it's necessary to shave; I'm just cultivating that Taliban chic look right now. Pffft.
Two words. Whisker burn. Ok now I am officially guilty. I have a cold and just took my Nyquil. BAM.
Nana, how do you define "necessary"???
Like, when I'm going out on a date. Which translates to? Got me.
Rita...oooh! Whisker burn. Say no more....
Bummer about the nyquil! Sweet dreams! May you have two day no shaves and whisker burn in your dreams...
Nana....ah yes....when going on a date. I get it.....Mmmhhh.....
Trudge - Oh yeah. I can't speak for all women, but it's a constant for me. Maybe I have high levels of testosterone or something, I dunno. But sometime I feel like a guy. But I bet there are other women who can identify (Amanda G?) :)
Yeah, Johny Depp turns me on too. Wish it wasn't true ~ BAM

Getting me a Larry fine 2moro. Luvyabye!
voices....yup...not sure what it is but certain men's voices... get me every time. *sigh*
I love being one so I can't blame you.

And loving men definitely ROCKS!
Live with one and it will calm you down.
I sound like a Caucasian Lou Rawls on the phone. Ok, maybe between Lou and Chester Burnett. KBAI!!!
I got hot just reading what kind of men you liked. Whew! Thanks I needed that :)
lorianne, I talk to lots of people on the phone, many of who I eventually meet. I love to pair up the voice with the face. Sometimes I'm very surprised. But yeah...voices...yum.
@Lea, 29yrs and counting.
D - you get it. Yeah baby... XOX
@Trig
I think Lou has been dead for a few years.
Lea, but I don't wanna! Been there, done that. The LAST thing I want to do is settle down. :D Although....given the right one...PERHAPS...I could consider it...
Oryoki, MSG? But I'm with ya on kilts. Mmm-yeah.
Rita - 29 years? And counting?! Impressive. And you still like him?
Hey! I'm a man! Woo hoo!

I don't have any tats but my reward for reaching my next fitness goal is a tattoo. Now I have an added incentive: we can show each other out tats.

Your brothers are right though. Men are creepy... except for me.
Did I mention I work out? And I'm in an open relationship? Just saying...
Cap'n. Com 'ere. * sniff * * sniff * ....Imma need to see your tat, when you get it... * sniff *
Lou and Chester have both passed Larry. That I sound like them may mot bode well for me.

J... tanks for posting and playing. BaM. Love you and.. what are you doing on your birthday?
Trig - Prolly going to be alone! It coincides with Father's Day. So I've generously given the kids to their father that day. Before realizing my man would be with his kids that day. Stoopid me.
I wish we could upload smells to posts. You could put a woodsy clean masculine scent to this one. bam.
Men rule, farts and all!
Sensitive men??? Not crybabies....but touchy feely in the right way???
Is there hope?
We need to get together! Live music, food, reef... maybe............ not. I'll call.

Rita. kbai is stolen from my son, means k bye! I know..
AG, that's coming to our internet soon! But would it ever compare to the real scent of a (clean) man? I think not...

TwoThumbs - weeelllll, I didn't say anything about farts and all....

JD. Sensitive men? I'd rather have a sensitive man than a hard-ass any time!
Brah, that sounds GOOD....call me.
kbai - of course! i bet it comes from lolzchezburgercat.com. Or something like that! :)
Speaking of sniffing, I have found my personal scent too. BTW, you're looking good in those shades.
You only turn 35 once!
Oh Dear - LL2 - not to be forgotten! I know what you mean! Isn't it crazy?? One whiff, one glance...the right moment at the right time - BAM!
no, not quite the same thing. Maybe it will advance enough for us to adjust the settings like we do on photos. Instead of color and balance it would be different smells and sweat levels or something.
way to be straight up!

rated and faved.
Cap'n, you've found your personal scent? Mmmm...intriguing...Imma need to smell that too.

Trig - my thoughts exactly! But you're off a few years. GOD! Why you gotta peg me as 35 when you KNOW I'm going on 29!

AG - I think you're on to something...
But you said you like our smell. Farts smell, and they make music. And you have to admit, we are way better at it than women.
Hey - thanks Charlie! :)

Two Thumbs, I'm thinking I should have done a better job of editing. At least a better job of explaining. :-0
AG is definitely on to something. Unfortunately, the something is not me!

Damn I lust for Amanda, in an OS social networking way. Yeah, that's it.

J... I'm jealous about your youth. sorry I tried to age you :o)
Great post! There is nothing wrong with appreciating men, even many men! R
Am I imaging it or is it "Raining Men" on Open Salon? FYI - I hate that song.
RATED
Thank goodness it's quiet I can sneak in. I've never done this during my years in Real Estate but I hear some Realtors drive around construction sites to look for roofers, you know shirtless, in the sun, tanned, glistening, they bend, grab a bundle, lift it up... Arghhh!!!

No time to be picky, hairy, sensitive, detoxing. Hurry, send help this year, heterosexual 911. No farting or farmer blow within 30 ft of me, I have standards.
I love this....and I love men, too. Their arms, their hands. And when they are kind as well as strong, asserting their will toward what is fair and just-----well, that's just plain sexy to me. Bring in that feminine/yin spirit to dance with the yang, and I'm a goner
Ok kids...Way past your bedtime. Lights out. Sweet, um, dreams
I am definitely with you on this one. Yesterday the muscly guy was delivering the Crystal Springs water to the cooler near my desk. Those legs and that butt in those shorts!! Come to Mama!
There's also a guy who sits near me who shaves his head and that just rings my bell! Ha! Actually, my bell gets rung all day long 'cause I love 'em too!! No desire to live with one but.....(leaving the obvious unsaid here!)
Libmomrn, that's right! Thanks for visiting.

littlewillie - I don't know about it raining men on OS, but they sure are raining on me. :)

stacye - indeed!

l'Heure Bleue - I'm jealous that you have the opportunity to drive around and check out the glistening tanned skin and straining muscles of shirtless roofers. I'd be doing it. Yep. (there's always lunch hour...hmmm)

Lady of Moon Lake - I know just what you mean...goner indeed!

Linnnn...what the heck were you doing up at that hour??

Sharon - I thought you might get me on this one. I hear ya about the shaved head. And all the bell ringing...my bell gets rung ALL THE TIME.
I'm glad I discovered you! We have something in common! Men are the best when it comes to lots of things!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Loooove your post! It totally made me laugh...'bam'!!! Lol. Oh, and I'm a fan now too! Glad you liked my Essence poem. :)
