Sexy is....
« on: August 31, 2008, 04:31:58 PM »
There are things in our lives that are subjective & others are objective.  I am querying the good folks on this forum to see what ya'll think is sexy.  No, I am not asking, "what turns you on?" 

I am asking about things that you find appealing, that takes you away, that relaxes you...  What are things that you see that you wish you could bottle that feeling when you look at them?  I am talking about things (inanimate objects) that stimulate you mentally....  ahem, and not so much physically....

Do not assume that you will have the same answer as someone else.  Each person is individual and unique, just as our rides are unique to their owners...

All of your answers are completely objective, your own opinion, and hopefully no one will blast you for being "wrong".

You guys might think it is kind of corny, but it really boils down to appreciating the small things in life... 

Quote

Objective -  existing in the mind; belonging to the thinking subject rather than to the object of thought. (opinion)

Subjective -  not influenced by personal feelings, interpretations, or prejudice; based on facts; unbiased (fact)

I am opening the forum for people to discuss things that they think are sexy, that others may not necessary think are sexy...

What is your definition of sexy?  What things or inanimate objects do you think are sexy? 

Here are a few things that I think are sexy...

The silhouette of my 550 going down the road - I really like the silhouette and shadow of my 550 going down the road because when I look at the silhouette or shadow, you can't really tell the make or model of the bike.  To me, it could be any bike.  It makes me think about how things could be if there were no other brands, or other owners who would look down on my ride, or judge my ride, or envy my ride.  You don't see the imperfections, or any aging...  The silhouette is the one thing that hasn't changed on my bike in it's life.  You can't see that it's rider isn't female, nor would you see if the rider is male.  It's silhouette makes all riders and all rides equal.  I love my bike's silhouette.  I think it is ultra sexy, ageless, timeless... 

Other things I think are sexy...
Palm trees, beaches, margaritas.... mmm, sheer bliss
Fresh cut lawn...  maybe just because it means that the chore is done & I can go ride my bike?
freshly polished bike... 
when my "in box" at work is empty...

I'm sure everyone has their own... these are just a few to start...

I think it's sexy when the definitions of objective and subjective get mixed up. ;) ;D ;D ;D

The sound of a flock of geese calling to each other as they fly over my house in March thus announcing the arrival of spring. Makes the hair at the back of my neck stand on end!

I'll tell ya what's sexy Hope:

The pics of you wearing T shirt that says "If you can read this..the #$%* passed you"..or your posts of nekkid ladies on bikes (supposedly wearing protective gear)..or various other posts on the "Babes Thread".  Why don't you surprise us..and give us some more of your selections?

I'm actually quite impressed (well..most of the time anyway) with the balance between good taste and eroticism seen on the babes thread nowadays.

Now..if we want to get into food items..which I consider sexy @ times..(you being from Louisiana should have a lot of examples of tasty cuisine)..that could perhaps be another avenue for us to explore as "sexy"..don't ya think?

Well while I like the Babe thread for obvious reasons. I like riding on a crisp Autumn day and feeling the warmth of the sun coming through my visor and hitting my face.

Sexy is:
*looking down at the curves of my motorcycle while I'm on it, the width of the tank and how it tapers like a a waist at the seat
*the glassy sheen of a nice paint job and the way rain beads crystalline upon the wax.
*a deep, soft, sorta rough voice like Janis Joplin's, or Tom Waits, Melissa Etheridge's... Stevie Ray Vaughn's...or a well tuned exhaust's groan with a slow twist of the throttle
*lean, smooth muscle tone, not bulky, but sleek...
*the smell of motor oil and gasoline on worn carhartts and the jingle of a wallet chain
*leather.
*denim blue eyes.
*confidence, not arrogance.
*the mouth feel of quality hookah tobacco smoke and the dance the thick white smoke it makes
*having a hand on your shoulder and knowing the person behind you will always be there. (especially if they're bike's slower than yours!) Just kidding, honey, I swear!  ;)
*women who are on bikes not because they're posing but because they could ride one before they could ride a bicycle.  ;) :D

*Walking out to a bike that I built, I painted, I worked on...just looking at it in the garage...gives me goosebumps
*My Ducati 748/996 hybrid...every time I look at it in my garage i get a mini orgasm.
*When i'm riding with my significant other on the back of my bike and she gives me that "squeeze" that says, THIS is fun!
*The sound of a Norton twin roaring under power as it roars down the road
*The strangely alluring sound of an older Ducati SS with an open clutch cover as the clutch rattles away
*That smell when winter is about to hit...that crisp clean it's about to snow smell
*The feeling before you go into a curve on a bike, downshifting then getting ready to pour on the throttle
*The feeling during the curve as you pour said throttle on
*The feeling after the curve of nailing the perfect line
*The feeling of seeing another curve coming up right after
*Realizing you have no idea what bike to take today, because anything with two wheels is a freaken blast to ride!

The first rays of sunlight glinting off the wing of an airplane sitting on the ramp in the morning.

The layer of fog on a pond first thing in the morning with a loon crying in the distance.

The gurgle of a stream right outside the tent flap as I drift off to sleep.......Zzzzzzzz.
