Can a man admire a woman's beauty without having sexual thoughts about her?

To me, being physically attracted to someone doesn't necessarily equate to wanting to sleep with them! Hugh Jackman is a very attractive and sexy man, but would I do him? No! I asked my male friends this question, and all of their answers summed up to "It doesn't make sense. It's like drooling over a piece of steak you would never actually eat?!"

  • i agree with the guys. I think you are wording it wrong.

    you definitely can think someone is attractive without wanting to sleep with him or her, at least from a woman's perspective.

    but, this isn't called physical attraction.

    physical attraction is when you feel personally attracted to someone! it can happen with anyone, not necessarily just based on looks. I know for me it is more than looks, there needs to be a mental component too. physical attraction is personal.

    then there are people that are good looking and pleasing to the eye, but don't get you sexually aroused. perhaps it is an attractive person that you do not know personally, or a guy who is attractive but does not have a personality you like or something.

    but I feel like this is a woman thing way more than a man thing. I think if a man thinks a woman is very attractive he usually wishes he could do her. whereas a woman can think a man is very handsome but not feel that personal attraction to him.

    i think part of this is because men are generally more visually aroused than women are, women need more personal and mental stimulation first.

    it's definitely happened to me. there is a guy right now and I want to rip his clothes off. not because he is the sexiest guy in the room physically. while he's not unattractive he's not a 10. but we have chemistry and his personality just gets me wild. he's bold and flirtatious and it's just so sexy and makes me want to rip my clothes off. while my other guy friend is a very good looking guy but he really turns me off and I'd never want to do him.

  • i can easily be stimulated by a food without wanting to eat it. it smells nice, looks nice, but I don't want it inside me. same with people. I can be attracted to them, but not want to f*** them.

    i think most guys will say no. but I don't know f they are really 'thinking' about it. maybe you should ask them specifically, instead f asking about men, in general.

  • I cannot be attracted to underaged girls. Not good at all no matter how pretty they are!

    Another key factor is personality. Few things worse than a hot babe who is Hell-on-a-broom!

    Finally there's habits which closely ties in with personality. I don't give a flying wet fart how hot a woman may be, if she smokes, does drugs, chew, smells really bad or shops fanatically, I have nothing for her

    Other than that, I'd want to jump a pretty woman. Forgive me for being human

  • If I'm psychically attracted to a girl, of course I'm going to contemplate the idea of sleeping with her. Doesn't mean I'm going to, but I'll def think about it.

  • it's possible but she would have to be incredibly beautiful naked for me to not even think about screwing her.

  • the gay ones can

  • I don't think so, personally if I'm attracted to a girl I naturally want her sexually lol

  • Depends on her exact look or how she dresses I mean some girls just have that seductive looking face with a sexy skinny body and a guy can't help but imagine her naked
