Recently,i received some compliments that made me think. I was told I was beautiful by one person and sexy by another. These words have different impacts on everyone. I personally, would rather be called beautiful;although i appreciate all compliments. When think of a beautiful person, i think of an [highly] attractive person with a nice personality and a good heart. If a person is attractive but has a terrible personality or a nasty attitude, I don't think that person is beautiful person.Its sort of like a package deal, i guess. Don't get me wrong, though,being sexy isn't just about looks either. Its how you carry yourself. Its having "something about you". Its that mystery, that edge that my friend Carl mentioned in his blog post tonight "What's in word". {Insert long time friend's blog link>>>>>(hahaha) (http://carlscornerstl.blogspot.com). Being sexy is having an air about yourself. So, this morning i sent a mass text to a handful of friends, because I was anxious to know their thoughts.
To the ladies: "Would you rather be referred to as beautiful or sexy? Which do you get more?"
To the fellas: "Would you rather be referred to as handsome or sexy? Which do you get more?
It came as no surprise that women want to be called beautiful; yet we are called "sexy" more often. I wonder why that is? It could be because the guys preferred "sexy" over "handsome" or "fine"; so maybe they believe that's what we like to hear too. Maybe they're afraid of the implications of calling a woman beautiful? Maybe she's not beautiful? I'm reaching, huh? hahaha
Anyway, two out of about 20 people that i asked, said it didn't matter, either was fine. They were both women; i was shocked. Two of about eight men would prefer to be referred to as handsome, but they're called sexy more. The others all prefer sexy; some get their wish, some wish things were different. ;-)
so, which do you prefer and which do you hear more?
