The Weirdest Things People Find Extremely Attractive

Sometimes attraction makes no sense.

But who hasn't been dumbfounded by the things that give others the tingle?

I have a friend, who finds men who yarn as a hobby... IRRESISTIBLE.

It's a strange thing to get hot and bothered over, but who am I to judge.

It seems like anything big or small can be a trigger, in the right places.

There is no rhyme or reason.

Just nature doing its thing.


Redditor Undecided_User_Name wanted to hear about "unique" ways people find themselves turned on, so they asked:

"What is the weirdest thing you find extremely attractive?"

"Husky voices on girls. If she sounds like a dude, that's just insanely hot? No idea why."

Butt Out

"My husband can do an incredible impersonation of a gorilla. Knuckles on the ground, butt sticking out, huffing noise, the whole deal. Wouldn’t you know that has gotten me into bed more times than I would care to admit it! I want to say it’s mostly because he makes me laugh so much but damn, sometimes I see a gorilla and I’m like, 'Wow, he’s pretty handsome.'"

Nothing Fancy

"When they go all the way dressing up. Not in the fancy way, but in the 'Oh there’s a theme and I’m not shy to go all the way with my costume.' Shows confidence and a great fun factor.'"

"For me that also goes for events. When I was in nursing school, we had what was called our white coat ceremony in our first semester. It's like a 'welcome to becoming a nurse' event; we all dress business casual, wear our lab coat, have a guest speaker, and take pics. It's sweet and feels pretty special, but it's not as big of a deal as our pinning ceremony."

"So we all show up for the event, and in walks one of our classmates in a full, blue suit. A horde of my classmates erupted in 'aww's' because he had clearly over-dressed, but that one event made me look at him different for the rest of my schooling. It wasn't the fact that he was in a suit, but the fact that he was over-dressed and not in a cocky way. He actually was really embarrassed when he realized his mistake, but damn I still feel a little tingly inside about it."

Dots

"Some impurities in the face like freckles or random black dots. My boyfriend has this one black dot directly below his eye in the middle of his left cheek. It makes him infinitely more valuable on the face market to me. Looks so darn adorable."

Oddishoderso

"That black dot may be a skin tumor/cancer... Not saying it is for sure but especially if he only has one and it has a texture, unevenness, he should get that checked. Especially if it is new and he didn't have it as a birthmark."

Cuddle Snuggling GIF by bluesbear Giphy

"Whenever my fiancé cuddles me, she puts her whole face in my neck and gives it kisses. It's not only sexy but super endearing. It's honestly the most adorable thing and she just fits so perfectly. I love her."

A good snuggle, even an aggressive one, is welcome.

Imperfect

"The idea that in this microwave ready, Instagram perfect world, that there are people, like all of you in this thread, that appreciate the imperfections in people and make them sound like the most attractive features ever."

I'm Listening

"People who can ramble on about their passion/s for hours. I love listening to people talk about the stuff they love."

andeelee23

"Honestly this is just such a help for my own self-confidence. I often keep on rambling on and on about stuff I like and half the time I just feel like I'm talking too much and the other person just wants me to shut up."

BlomSmashman

"This is hit or miss for me. I enjoy a good conversation, but I have a friend who if you ask him a question, he will go on foreeeeever without you being a part of the conversation. He just keeps talking about trains and star wars and Dragon Ball Z and airplanes and sh*t like that for like 20 minutes or more and youre just sitting there like mhm.... please stop."

Drowsy Hot

"Don't know why, but exhausted men look super hot to me. Probably because being exhausted is as close as being the real you as possible."

aherusia

"I think there's a couple 'raw' versions of people. A great one is when someone is just completely relaxed, like present and not worrying about anything else at that time. You get to see what they think and say and how they act when the mental space is cleared and they're free to think about whatever without life's demands pressing into their consciousness."

Wear it Proud

"My husband got himself this bear onesie. The first time he put it on I was like…what is this feeling? Why am I aroused right now? After a few occasions of him wearing it I was like, well I guess I’m a borderline furry (although I think it’s the snuggly softness that does it for me rather than anything animalistic)."

"He still thinks it’s very weird, but he will put it on for me when I ask. Too bad for him our anniversary is in the height of summer."

"Onesies are widely available, so I don’t really understand why so many people are asking where he got it (I mean they’re literally everywhere, and it’s not like his is special - it’s not a magical onesie, it’s just a normal, fluffy onesie with a hood and bear ears - it’s also not one of those loose ones - I like the way it hugs his butt…) but he bought his in Next, a basic high street shop in the UK. That was maybe four or five years ago, though, but you could definitely get one on Amazon."

"Recently I've been working out more. My wife says the veins popping out of my arms and hands get her all hot and bothered for some reason. Either way it feels good when she touches them."

We all have our little sexy soft spots. Veiny as they maybe.

Melania Just Held A Bizarre Press Conference To Debunk 'False Smears' Related To Jeffrey Epstein—And Everyone Had The Same Response

First Lady Melania Trump had everyone thinking the same thing after she held a bizarre press conference on Thursday to deny that she had anything but casual ties to Jeffrey Epstein, the late disgraced financier, pedophile, sexual abuser, and sex trafficker.

Mrs. Trump publicly denied any ties to convicted sex offenders Epstein and his procurer Ghislaine Maxwell, saying claims linking her to Epstein are “lies” meant to damage her reputation. She said she met her husband, President Donald Trump at a New York City party in 1998 and did not meet Epstein until 2000, contradicting a witness statement in the Epstein files that alleges Epstein introduced the couple.

Dem Rep. Sarah McBride Perfectly Shames Nancy Mace For Her Transphobic Response To McBride's Condemnation Of Trump

Delaware Democratic Representative Sarah McBride pushed back at South Carolina Republican Representative Nancy Mace after Mace responded with transphobia to McBride's criticism of President Donald Trump's genocidal threat to kill the "whole civilization" of Iran.

Trump has insisted that God supports his war on Iran and declared—before a provisional ceasefire was announced—that "a whole civilization will die tonight, never to be brought back again" ahead of a deadline to bomb Iran’s power plants and bridges that legal scholars and world leaders have said would constitute war crimes.

Comedian Explains How Millennials' Midlife Crises Are Different From Past Generations—And He's Spot On

Don't make promises you cannot keep, unless your goal is to hurt someone.

Millennials know that practically better than anyone. They were fed a long and impassioned series of advice, hyper-focused on the importance of getting a college degree in order to find a good job. They were also force-fed traditionalist ideals of getting married, having kids, and buying a nice house with the money they'd be making from that great job, of course.
