I disagree with the body hair though. Like most men of my generation I prefer no body hair at all from the neck down.

I prefer adults to look like adults.

always struck me as somewhat creepy that so many men seem to find the pre-pubescent look attractive

Never understood this viewpoint, other than to justify themselves. I'm sure you're perfectly aware this isn't the reason. Do you not think the fully developed female body somewhat counteracts this?

I assume on the same note you have no issue with other body hair on females either, so you don't believe they should shave their armpits or legs? After all, surely women shave their legs to look like pre-pubescent girls, no?

Some people seem to wear some sort of perfume that doesn't smell of anything, but is just cloyingly sickly sweet -- makes me gag _pale_

I agree with this one too. There's a women in my office who wears so much perfume I struggle to breathe. If she sits near me I actually have to move desks. I fail to see how anyone can believe this is a good idea.

Well good for you. That's the beauty of the world, everyone has different tastes.

Well - to be honest - I think it should be up to the woman in question.... think back to the OP though - some do it because they think it more attractive, some because they think it expected of them. I notice you said "of my generation" which does appear to be a factor.

I couldn't agree more, it should always be the personal choice of the individual whose body it is. However this is a topic regarding what you do/don't find attractive in the opposite sex so it's the very place to discuss personal preferences.

I'm surprised no one's mentioned Manspreading.

Manspreading is hateful anywhere, but even more so on the Tube and trains and buses. It's usually explained as 'a need to take up space' - but it isn't, it's sexually aggressive. When you're sat opposite one, it's like a visual expression of: 'Look, Lady. my balls - right in your FACE'. Horrible, horrible, vulgar, ARROGANT.

And the worst turn off on God's earth, no matter what the pea brain with his legs spread at 180 degrees seems to think.

But it's alright for women to wear clothes to lift and emphasize their chest area and even get them artificially enhanced.

And they aren't doing that for men, they're doing it for themselves because they're empowered (apparently).

Actually, they are doing it to feel more comfortable or, possibly, confident; not for your benefit.

Have you tried sitting with your legs shut with a bundle of external genitals stuck between them with trousers on? It's actually quite uncomfortable to do sometimes.

Likewise men. See my post above.

And women jiggle themselves around all the time but if we try and discreetly rearrange ourselves for comfort we get labelled as pervs.

As any man who's ever sat on himself knows
