I asked a few men of different ages and in stages, what they find most beautiful, appealing, and sexy about women. This reply from a 36-year-old totally moved me:

“For me, it’s the things most women are insecure about. Stretch marks, some sag, etc. Most men like older cars cause they have character, appeal, and age. Some of the things that women are the most insecure about are what men love the most. When I see someone with those things, I don’t see an old lady, I see an aged woman with experience. Young chicks with implants that sit high up are for young boys. A man, like me at least… might see that and think it looks appealing, but definitely not what I want.

Those things on a woman are like the patina on a car. In my opinion, it’s the real value of a woman. Sanding down the patina and painting certain cars is sacrilegious. The patina really tells the story of the car to me”

There is plenty of space for the many definitions and versions of beautiful and sexy. It’s time to give yourself permission to DEFINE, FEEL, BELIEVE, and OWN your version.
