Undefined Sexy

Renee Russo is one of those women who, when you look at her closely, is fairly unattractive.  She lacks most, if not all, of the classic features that define “sexiness.”  Her angular face, disproportionately wide mouth, scraggly hair, and baggy eyes all lead to a relatively plain woman.  Yet, she IS sexy.  It just goes to show you that “sexy” is much more than a haphazard compilation of physical characteristics.  It’s an attitude… a look… an allure.  Those who obsess about the physical are really missing out.

1. So…what are you trying to say? You like your women wide, scraggly, and baggy? 

   Um, thanks?

2. Sounds like she’s still angling to get on your cell phone background, Owen.

5. And smart. She exudes intelligence, a major ingredient of sexy, as far as I’m concerned.

6. She’s a high school dropout.  Doesn’t seem like it, though, does it?

7. Did someone just watch The Thomas Crown Affair circa 1999?  She’s definitely Teh Sex in that one.

   Define “obsess”?

   Why is it that when people buy a house, no one makes pejorative comments about going for curb appeal?

   Why is it that when we buy a new car its ok to go for what looks nice (in addition to what runs good)?

   We furnish our houses in very particular ways based on looks and function.

   We comb our hair, girls do make up, spend hundreds at the salon on their hair, thousands on clothing…

   But yet when it comes to the opposite sex, shame on people who have a proclivity for a certain look?

   Please…...

   (not directing this specifically at you Owen, kinda taking your point and extending it to the larger concept that I hear often)

   Lets be real.  Looks matter.  No, they aren’t the only thing, but they matter.

   Everyone has different tastes.  I saw a brand new calf-shit-gold Ford Focus the other day and thought WHO in the world would CHOOSE a new car of that color.

   Attraction is important.  Many people are attracted to many different things.  And thats ok!  There is usually someone for everyone (me excluded)

   I hear a good looking couple tell people that “looks don’t matter”.  Yeah, whatever…  Thats pretty self-righteous to say when you’ve got an attractive mate…

   Different things are important to different people.  I encourage people to go for what they think they want and need in a mate in order to be able to be happy and faithful (if happy and faithful is what they are seeking)

9. Really, a high school dropout? I never would have guessed. Well, obviously, by my comment above, but that really surprises me.

10. I think she mentioned it on Letterman a long, long time ago.  He asked her if she ever thought about going back and finishing up, and she said no.  If I remember right, he was kind of flustered then and changed the subject.

11. Just goes to show that smart doesn’t necessarily mean well-educated, I suppose.

12. Or maybe “exuding” does not equal “possessing” when it comes to intelligence.

    I always thought she was sexy too, although she’s WAY older than I am.  :D
