What the hell is sex appeal?

It’s certainly something you can’t put your finger on. It’s just a subtle something about someone. It has absolutely nothing to do with looks because some visually challenged people have a whole lot of sex appeal... and funnily enough, the less someone talks and the less they’re animated, the more intriguing and sexually appealing they appear. Sex appeal comes over you like something in the air. Sex appeal makes you want to discover... but not everything because sex appeal leaves you wanting more.

Sex appeal is also very personal. Who and what I think is sexy might turn you off like a warm bowl of pig trotters soaked in vinegar and sprinkled with parsley.

You can try to force it by wearing sexy clothes but that’s too overt. You can try to turn it up by splashing yourself with a heavy scent of perfume or cologne, but that’s rather obvious too. You can even try to turn on the sex by making sexual innuendo's but you just come across as immature and smutty.

I also believe that everyone’s personal taste when it comes to sex appeal is driven by different triggers. For instance, I think Samuel L Jackson has sex appeal, but I don’t think Will Smith has. Will’s kinda cutesy. I like a bit of grrrrr!! You may disagree, but I like grrrrr whereas you might like cute as a button.

I also think Bruce Willis, Denzel Washington and Idris Elba have sex appeal, but I don’t care for Ashton Kutcher, George Clooney or Brad Pitt!

OK, I don’t fancy Brad Pitt... so kill me!

I don’t know what it is but it’s something I will never be able to work out – and maybe that’s a good thing. I guess it’s probably all psychological and I’m sure if I were to dig really deep, I’d find the answer. But I’m not sure I want to go digging deeply.
