[MsCelebrityCrazy]

@pernanjp yeah, you're right!

[pernanjp]

@MsCelebrityCrazy That's my point.. If sexual attraction is all about reproductive instinct, and puberty is to signal the opposite sex, then that would mean that facial hair (part of puberty) would be attractive to ALL women, and if that depended on length, it would not grow long.. But many women find facial hair to be gross, so that doesn't fit this logic. There is a lot about sex that has nothing to do with reproduction, and everyone is attracted differently.

[MsCelebrityCrazy]

@pernanjp facial hair is gross, unless if its a little stuble, but no hair on face is best! facial hair makes guys uglierand uck

[pernanjp]

@JGvisions Also, puberty causes men to lose hair from their head, and to grow hair on their face.. So it would seem that it plays some roll in reproduction, and in sending cues to women that the man is ready to mate. So why then is it that most people (men and women alike) find it distasteful? I hope I'm not confusing you even more, that isn't my aim. I just have a habit of digging deep into a subject, and that tends to bother people..

@JGvisions Honestly, I'm still not sure what "trolling" means.. The fatty inner thigh is part of the thigh (as is the hip), and it is fat.. It's in the same area of the butt and hips, so I thought it was part of the deal. If it is, then I don't understand why, if the attraction is so strait forward, men wouldn't be attracted to it.

[JGvisions]

...by the physical cues that appear in the desired mate. the attraction to the butt, in male sexuality is driven by those same instincts which help him/her to determine if a person is a viable mate. are there other factors that go into attraction of certain body parts, yes. but we are talking about sexual attraction and the physical characteristics that people are attrated too(for men, along with the thighs and breast, butts).

[JGvisions]

im going to put this a simply as possible sexual attraction is based on both visible and non-visible cues observed between the sexes. the breast, ass, and thighs on women and hieght, muscle mass, ect in men are usually the determining factors (besides looks,ect) that determine sexual attraction in a general sense. these physical attributes have subconscious triggers that lets you know the person you are looking at is of sexual maturity. homosexuality is still determined the same way...part1

[JGvisions]

also im confused at the comment made above. what does the liking of the fatty inner thigh have to do with anything or when did this phrase pop up in the conversation(or video for that matter)? are you just saying things obscure or from left feild to be confusing on purpose? this is what i mean by trolling.....and i think im falling for it,lol.
