For many women, turn-ons aren’t just about a man’s looks, independence and sense of humor–there are some unpredictable things that turn them on as well. So what are some of those other qualities that women find so attractive?
- The color red
Men garbed in red are proven to attract more attention from women because the color is an attention getter. The color red is also viewed as a dominant color that indicates power and masculinity, and prolonged viewing of the color causes the female body to increase adrenaline secretion and raise blood pressure.
- Sweat and body odor
Contrary to popular belief, not all women like the smell of a guy covered in cologne. Some women like the natural smell of a man, just the way he is. Studies show that Androstadienone, a chemical compound found in male sweat, increases blood pressure, boosts hormone levels and raises the rate of breathing in women (Don’t abandon showers though!)
- A deep voice
A deep, manly voice is another turn-on for women. A low voice is perceived as more dominant and strongly tied to success in finding a mate.
- Your hands
The state of your hands says a lot about your general cleanliness and hygiene. Many women also feel that the way a man’s hands move directly translates to his sexual prowess. You might even consider having a manicure every once in a while.
- Asking them for help
Most women like it more when a man knows how to ask for help from a woman and knows when to ask for help instead of trying on his own and failing as a result.
- Being “uncool”
A good number of women actually take a liking to an awkward male who isn’t afraid to be himself and find a little nerdiness very attractive.
- Your imperfections
Believe it or not, a great deal of women are actually attracted to scars, blemishes and birthmarks on a guys body, but more so to the stories behind them.
- Your handwriting
Although it may sound stupid, many women are fascinated by a man who has quality penmanship.
- Your sensitive side
While women are not looking for some needy man who wants to talk about his emotions constantly, one of the biggest female turn-ons is having an emotionally well-balanced man who is not afraid to show his emotions from time to time.
- Being good with kids
A man holding a baby is beautiful and a turn on to most women! Women are not necessarily picturing you as the father of their children, but it is endearing to see a guy’s nurturing side
