[NSFW]Boring question #33: In the US, are women's bare thighs a catalyst for thoughts that lead to the private area?

Asked by Hypocrisy_Central (26879points) July 9th, 2013

[NSFW] Many guys I know can see a woman in jeans, slacks or long shorts, etc, and not think of her naughty bits. However, the same woman in a bikini, booty shorts, or Daisy Dukes, IE, any apparel that exposes 85% of the thigh or more, it acts like a catalyst that gets them to thinking about her naked, and what she looks like below the belt, how much hair (if there is any at all), does it match the hair on her head, the size and shape of her Labia Majora, or if other sexual parts are overly large or prominent, etc. In the US how often do you believe a good-looking pair of thighs creates thought of a woman’s sexual parts? Would US men think less about what a woman looks like below the waist if less of the thigh was seen?

I can’t speak for all men (or women). But I disagree with the assumption you make.

I appreciate legs for their own sake – the curves and angles stand alone (so to speak) and not because they suggest anything sexual to the north. I don’t immediately make the leap from a thigh to pubic hair as you suggest.

Women are made up of lots of moving parts – not just a vagina and breasts. Each attribute is one piece of the puzzle, and together they are a cohesive unit. Individually they are just parts.

Nothing about women’s (or men’s I guess) genitalia is particular attractive.

Nicely shaped thighs, however, are attractive. That is why classical sculptures concentrated on muscular definition and not Labia Majora and clits. I figure you were sort of joking to make a point when you tried to make labia and clits a focus of beauty.

The point is, attractive is attractive.

I have the most beautiful and hottest GF on Earth, so I really do not think as much about what you are talking about as much as I used to.

But a girl with good looking thighs usually has good looking a lot of things.

Good looking means good to look at.

Good to look at is part of being desirable.

Being desirable includes stimulating somebody’s anticipation of sex.

So I guess it all makes sense.

Um @Hypocrisy_Central , whatever floats your boat, I’m not going to validate whatever turns you on, you seem to always ask if something in particular gets people excited.

People (not just men, not just women) get aroused by a variety of things. How about you find out what you get aroused over, and pursue that without questioning if it turns everyone else on?

So, let me get this straight: the question is not whether certain people find bare thighs attractive or sexual, the question is whether the bare thighs are to blame for specific sexual thoughts? In other words, the way a woman dresses is responsible for putting thoughts in people’s heads?

Seriously?

@zenvelo How about you find out what you get aroused over, and pursue that without questioning if it turns everyone else on? I won’t ask anything of the Collective if the Collective don’t in turn ask anything about if they like people with tattoos, this age, that height, if they like this or that sex act, in short, things that turn them on. Go back over 50 past questions and I am sure a good portion would allude to someone’s personal choice, or maybe something they don’t even have a leaning to. I am sure none of them are trying to sinisterly turn someone on because they are curious as to what size sexual member other Flutheronians like, or breast size, or the color of their 6 in pumps, but we can believe so, just because the question was asked. Then question why they asked it and why we even clicked on when we knew it was a sinister trick all along.

@glacial So, let me get this straight: the question is not whether certain people find bare thighs attractive or sexual, the question is whether the bare thighs are to blame for specific sexual thoughts? In other words, the way a woman dresses is responsible for putting thoughts in people’s heads?
First off, you have it a little crocked. I am not saying the way a woman dresses is responsible for what sexual thoughts come into the mind of men or lesbians, they can do that quite well no matter what a woman is wearing. A woman can be covered head-to-toe in a skintight cat suit and cause someone to think sexually about her. To be more correct to the spirit of the question would be near that people say sight or the smell of food increases the desire to eat, even if the person seeing the nice meal or smelling it was not that hungry moments before. The sight of a woman with nice legs and silky thighs can (and has) cause some to think of sexual things they had not had moments before because the thighs to quite a few is seen as a gateway body part to the vagina.

Are you trying to say a slender woman dressed in a high collar and a maxi dress, or in other words, dressed like a librarian will turn the heads out of 30 men than a slender woman in a micro mini skirt; IE, out of 30 guys X of the 30 will look at the woman in the mini, and X amount of those same men would notice the woman dressed like a librarian from Norman Rockwell days?
