Turn-On or Turn-Off: Gray Hair
We live in a culture that places a lot of emphasis on youth and looking young, which is why many women take to hair dye before they let a strand of gray tarnish their locks. While there are some men who also opt for a good dye job at the first sign of gray, it’s more common for a guy to let his hair naturally do what it’s going to do. Now, I’m not saying I’m into men decades older than me, but I do think a bit of gray flecking a beard or a salt and pepper mane can be pretty gorgeous.
It's Official: Red Is a Turn-On
Red has always been bold, but as it turns out, now it's officially sexy! A new study, as reported by Reuters, offers evidence that men are attracted to women in red. Researchers showed young heterosexual men pictures of women wearing different colors and asked them to rate the women by attractiveness and their desire to both kiss and have sex with them.
Do Tell: Are You Into Dirty Talk?
I know that most of you aren't fans of baby talk, but what about dirty talk? For some, it's easy to let your mouth run wild, whether it's talking out your fantasies or descriptively describing the act at hand, but knowing how to talk dirty in a way that makes it seductive is key in order for it to work! Of course we all like to hear that we're desirable, but do tell, are you generally into dirty talk?

It's Complicated: How Women Determine Facial Attractiveness
It's no surprise that how women determine facial attractiveness is complicated. Unlike many men who may give a woman's body a once-over, and then look at her face, deeming her attractive or unattractive, women, when checking out a man's face, tend to evaluate it on two levels, according to a study that was just published in the Journal of Experimental Social Psychology.
The first level women use to evaluate men's faces is sexual: they zero in on features like the jawbone, cheekbones, and lips.
Which Type of Fit Man Attracts You?
A new study has found that women are more physically attracted to brawny men, especially for a fling. But when it comes to finding a long-term partner, they tend to pick a regular man over a mate with huge biceps.
So I am curious: In general are you more attracted to a man with a chiseled bod (Matthew McConaughey), or one who is more average (Matthew Perry)?
Speak Up: Are Unhealthy Eaters Less Attractive?
A recent study published in the May issue of Appetite, a scientific journal, has found that unhealthy eaters are viewed as less physically attractive, less warm, less intelligent and less studious than those who eat healthfully. I am curious about your thoughts on this -- Do you think you (or other people) subconsciously (or consciously) view unhealthy eaters in a lesser light than healthy eaters? Let me know in the comments section below.Men Get Dumber Speaking to Attractive Women
In news that will surprise absolutely no one, researchers have found that men get so flummoxed when speaking to attractive women — using up most of their cognitive abilities trying to impress them — that they sometimes forget basic personal information like their own addresses!
Research showed that if (presumably straight) men spent even a few minutes with an attractive woman, they didn’t perform as well on tests that measure brain function than they did after speaking to someone they didn’t find attractive. Women didn’t seem to have this reaction in the presence of men they considered handsome.
Do Tell: What Traits Do You Find Attractive?
We women have distinctive tastes. Unlike men, women have varying opinions on what is attractive.
A study we discussed earlier this week asked people to rate pictures based on attractiveness.
Rules of Attraction: Seduction Beauty Part 1
I would never dare to suggest that we only make ourselves look beautiful to attract the attention of men, but let's face it, it's always nice to be noticed for the right reasons. While red lips and long blonde hair are often easily dismissed as male-magnet cliches; in terms of evolution we are genetically programmed to find certain traits attractive. A symmetrical face, for example, is well known to signal healthiness while a recent survey showed that men find women with 'typically feminine' faces more attractive.
You Asked: I Only Attract Much Older Men
Dear Sugar,
I am a young, college student who is comfortable in her own skin. However, I seem to only be pursued by men that are much older than me. Guys my age just seem to look straight past me, while older men always show interest in me.
