“I love when my
girlfriend gives
me a kiss goodbye
and her scent lingers for a moment
after she’s left,”
says Geoff, 23, of
Washington, D.C.

lips
You don’t have to be named Angelina to get props for
yours; the new dark lip colors make any woman’s look
plush. Line with berry pencil, fill in, apply lipstick (try
CoverGirl Queen Collection Vibrant Hue Color in Black
Currant, $7.50, at drugstores) and blot. He will notice. As Brian, 36,
of Trenton, New Jersey, says, “I spend so much time wondering about
what a first kiss will feel like that I appreciate the nuances of
a woman’s lips well before I make contact with them.”

“At a party, another guy's girlfriend
was exposing
hers—it's just
enough skin,” says
Geoff. "His loss
became my longterm relationship."

“My girlfriend
barely glides hers
across my back to
apply the perfect
amount of pleasure
and pain," says
Jordan, 24, of
Union, New Jersey.
"I look at her nails
with a whole new
respect now."
eyes
When it comes to sexy eyes, the smudgier the
better (too-perfect anything isn’t sexy to him—or easy
for you!). Steer clear of straight-up charcoal shadows,
which can seem harsh. Instead, try one with shimmery flecks
like Lancôme Color Design Eye Shadow in The New Black
($17, lancome-usa.com). With a tapered brush, smudge it
from your lash lines to just above the creases and apply a few
coats of black mascara. Keep the rest of your makeup simple—
a little rosy blush and a pinky-nude gloss on your lips—
so your eyes will stand out even more.

“It’s unquestionably
real,” says Gregory,
32, of Charlotte,
North Carolina.
“Breasts can be
fake, but when I
spot a woman
across a room, and
she brushes her
hair back and I can
see her neck, then
I know she’s a
natural beauty.”

“They’re smooth,
soft and perfect
for nibbling,” says
Victor, 24, of Yorba
Linda, California.

hair
The beauty of this deliberately messy ’do: The
more he plays with it, the better it’ll look. “You don't
even need a brush,” says shoot stylist Ted Gibson. Leaving
out the front part of your hair, draw the rest back into a loose
bun and pin. Then make a braid on each side of the hanging
hair, twist them around the knot and secure again. Extra credit:

“I find the hottest
parts of a woman
are interactive,” says
Michael, 34, of
Philadelphia. “Nipples respond—they
talk back to your
tongue or your lips
or your fingertips.”

...And 11 More
Things He
Worships About
Your Body
Not every woman is
shaped the same—
believe me, men
appreciate that. And as
the last few pages
show, you’ve probably
got more than a few
hot spots to which you
aren’t giving nearly
enough credit. So sit
back or, better yet, lie
back, and let us praise
our favorite parts, in no
particular order. —E.P.
Legs
“Everything starts with
the walk and the legs,”
says Phil, 27, of Austin,
Texas. “Some mornings,
when my wife is shuffling around the house
in one of my shirts with
her legs all bare, I wonder how I got so lucky.”
under-Booty
Cleavage
“Sometimes it shows in
the fit of certain jeans,”
says Sean, 29, from New
York City, of the little
“V” under a woman’s
bum. “It’s so taboo that
I’m more intrigued
by this than I am by inyour-face breasts.”

Belly Button
“My girlfriend’s belly
button is my favorite
part of her body,” says
Del, 27, of Atlanta.
“She has an outtie, and
sometimes I’ll push it
in and out like a doorbell.
It makes her giggle.”
Small of the
back
“It’s the real ‘first base,’ ”
says Sam, 35, of Atlanta.
“When I’m on a date and
really enjoying her company, I’ll gently touch
the small of her back as
I open the door for
her. It’s less intrusive, and
sparks can fly without
anyone going too far.”
Linea Negra
“We like to think of the
dark line that begins
at the belly button, or
the soft fuzz that some
women have there
instead, as the North
Star, then travel due
south,” says Dwayne, 32,
of Burlington, New Jersey. “There’s a reason we
call it the goodie trail.”
Inner Thighs
“It’s like baseball,” says
Eddie, 31, of Elizabeth,
New Jersey. “I know
the importance of the
batter’s box. You dwell
there for a while, just
feeling the anticipation
of the moment.”
Arch of the
foot
“It’s the most sensual
part of the body,” says
Ronald, 30, of Windsor,
Connecticut, who
admits he used to ask his
college girlfriend to slip
shoes on when friends
came over. “When men
see a woman’s foot,
they think about other
intimate body parts.”
Hips
As Jason, 27, of Dover,
Delaware, notes, “What
would the Coke bottle
be without a woman’s
hips as a model? That
shape just makes everything better.”
Tongue
“She can do something
as innocent as stick it out
playfully, and it drives
me wild,” says Andrew,
32, of Brooklyn.

Scars
“My wife, the Martha
Stewart coffee-cakebaking queen, used
to be a tough chica
when she was a kid,”
says Luis, 28, of Miami.
“You would never
know that today if there
wasn’t a little scar on
her inner arm from a
bike race that didn’t
end so well. That scar
opened up another side
of her to me. And by the
way, she won that race.
How sexy is that?”

“Ahem, my favorite
name for it is the Love
Box,” says Michael,
31, of Brooklyn. His other
beloved monikers
include Kitty Cat, Juice
Box, Peach Pit, Sugar
Cookie, Yum-Yum. And
then there’s the most
telling title, Center of
the Universe.
That name basically
reveals all you need to
know about how much
we men love your bodies: your real bodies, not
the bodies we see on
TV or in movies or on
those Internet porn sites
that mysteriously pop
up on our computer
screens. (Why do they
do that? We have no
idea.) It’s not just your
“sugar cookie” that is
the center of our universe—it’s all of you.
We’ll deny that we ever
bought a John Mayer
album if you try to get
us to admit it in public.
But the guy was right
about one thing—your
body is a wonderland.
Period.
