What Makes A Woman Sexy?
The 75 Traits That Make Women Timelessly Attractive
I am all about being egalitarian, especially when it comes to defining what makes something sexy in a gender. I had previously written about how what makes someone attractive or sexy has changed over the years. Back in the '60s, it was sexy for women to cook an elaborate meal and be in full make-up for when her husband came home. Now, it is sexy for a woman to be a boss, in-charge of her own life and destiny.
In my humble opinion, both represent different aspects of femininity that are equally beautiful in their own ways. However, since I made a list about what is timelessly sexy in a man, it would behoove me to pass along the same observations to the ladies. Since I’m not a lady, I’ve asked around and compiled the 75 most timelessly sexy things in a woman. With this list, you’ll constantly be bringing your A-game when it comes to scoping out the women in the dating scene.
