What is the greatest aphrodisiac?

[Haole Girl]

Poll question: What is the greatest aphrodisiac?

Just thought I'd help liven up the Lounge tonight.

I heard this question asked on the radio a few years ago. I'll tell you the answer they gave, if this thread doesn't get locked, in a few minutes. I mean...it's not really a sex thread...it's an arousal thread. Right?

[Deja Q]

1. What, no option for

HypnoToad? :7

[Haole Girl]

2. Ahhh!!! You're baaaaa'ack!

I knew it...the green M&M's did the trick! :hi:

[Deja Q]

20. I like the green M&Ms...

Especially the one with the big peanut in the middle! :spray:

'tis good to be back, thank you! :D

[WritingIsMyReligion]

3. I've no experience whatsoever with love, but I love music so much that it has to get something.

:P

I go crazy with lust when I hear, for instance, Van Morrison's "Mooondance."

:loveya:

[Haole Girl]

5. I love music too

It can certainly turn me on! ;-)

[DemoTex]

17. As a married man of nearly 35 years, "Moondance" is "our" song.

But my song for my beautiful wife, Dr. "D", has always been Van Morrison's "Brown-Eyed Girl"! I got Georgia Tech's radio station (WGST) to play that song over-and-over on the day she got her PhD.

[Radio_Lady]

4. Your mind... is the greatest aphrodisiac! I know that's the answer!

[Haole Girl]

7. Yes...agreed!

The mind is a most powerful tool!

Good to see you, R-L. Did you get that fever down? :hug:

[Radio_Lady]

45. Yep, Big Daddy let me stay in bed for two days! That's what did it!

[Haole Girl]

48. I'm glad you're feeling better...

and, I'm glad you're back here with friends (like me, of course ;-))... :hug:

[Robb]

9. Ding ding ding!!

Big brain all sexy! :D

[Haole Girl]

19. Hey Robb...

Oh, dammit, I forgot motorcycles....motercycle gear, to be precise! ;-)

[Robb]

61. Nothin' says "sexpot"

...quite like shin guards and 6-hour helmet hair. :rofl:

[GOPisEvil]

6. Lively intelligent conversation. I'm a sucker for big...

...brains...

:)

[Haole Girl]

8. Yes...

Brains are very sexy. :-)

[wildhorses]

10. grace under pressure=humility?

watching raw physical power in motion?

to see rough hands handle very gently a small creature?

:shrug:

[Haole Girl]

13. Oh, wow, yeah...

I know what you mean there. Those are very good...and definitely on my list, too. :hi:

[wildhorses]

18. so then what did the radio say?

is it one of the choices in your poll?

everybody is coming up with some really good stuff here:hi:

[Haole Girl]

21. The D.J. said.....drum roll please...............

Doing it in public places!

:blush:

(hey, I'm just repeating what I heard)

[wildhorses]

28. but, what is IT that makes one want to do it in the public place

to begin with?? that's what we are going for, right?

those radioheads...what do THEY know??? *harumph*


:rofl:

[Haole Girl]

30. Hmm... you've got a point there....

...I guess we'll have to figure this one out. I'm surprised nobody's said hormones yet!! ha-ha!!!

:rofl: :popcorn:

[LynzM]

11. Attitude and sense of humor

Attitude not like pissed-off-attitude, but the right kind of button-pushing, slighly physically violent kind of flirting does it for me. So does dancing.

[Haole Girl]

14. Humor!

Now, how'd I forget that?

[Kali]

12. Focused attention.

Not stalking, but as if you were the most interesting individual in the world to your partner.

[Haole Girl]

16. I know what you mean there...

...that "feeling special...and being treated well" kind of attention. :-)

[Jade Fox]

80. Absolutely. You win, Kali.

A person who knows how to give good attention can get it all.

[reyd reid reed]

15. Good conversation with a little bit of humor

a spark in the air...a certain indefinable something...

And the m&ms don't hurt, either.

[Haole Girl]

23. Yes, the spark...

..sparks are necessary. And, it's odd...isn't it...how they are almost indefinable?

:hi:

[Starbucks Anarchist]

22. A pulse and a full set of teeth.

:P

[Haole Girl]

24. LOL.

Do they have to be as white as your pearly ones, though? That would be a tall order!!

:rofl:

[Starbucks Anarchist]

25. I keep telling you that's the camera flash.

:rofl:

[Haole Girl]

26. And, I keep telling you, I don't believe it!

:P

[marzipanni]

68. Few nose hairs and minimal

spittle at the corners of the mouth...

[ScreamingMeemie]

27. Not having sex.. for like 6 weeks or something.

:hi:

[Haole Girl]

29. Uh oh...

...I don't think I'll go there.

Thank you for your input, though! ;-) :hi:

[LeftyMom]

32. 6 weeks?

:bitter laughter here:

[HarukaTheTrophyWife]

79. Yeah...

Heh.

[Starbucks Anarchist]

55. Amateur.

:rofl:

[Drum]

31. breathing, murmuring in the ear....

[Haole Girl]

33. Yes, the ear is a sensitive spot

But, slobber in the ear is just....well, icky! :eyes:

[Redstone]

34. Love.

Redstone

[Haole Girl]

35. Oh, I feel like such a sinner for not putting that as an option.

You are so right, Redstone! :hi:

[Redstone]

36. Truth.

And thank you.

Redstone

[Oeditpus Rex]

37. A '65 GTO

With 3x2 on a 389, stirred by a Muncie 4-speed. :headbang:





But in Artesian Turquoise Metallic. :bounce:

[Haole Girl]

38. Hey cars can be very arousing to the senses...

....as can your sig line.



:hide:

[dropkickpa]

96. That does it for me!!!!

:loveya:

[leftofthedial]

39. a combo

a beer and a lapdance


okay. just kidding. it's been so long I don't really remember, but to the best of my recollection it was my personality and my amazing sense of humor that got them hot.

[Haole Girl]

40. Hmm...

I'm sure a lot of people would agree with your first answer...LOL.

And, yes...personality and sense of humor are big ones! ;-)

[leftofthedial]

41. "personality and sense of humor are big ones"

but big ones are a pretty good aphrodisiac . . .

buh dum pshhht

Thank you. I'll be here all week. Try the veal.

[Haole Girl]

42. Ya know...

somehow I knew that didn't sound right. :blush:

[Broken_Hero]

43. other, my wife knows what it is....nt

[Haole Girl]

44. Not fair!!

You have to at least give us a hint. Oh, oh, I know....you dress up in a super hero's....uh...never mind....

please don't ban me!


:hide:

[Broken_Hero]

47. Nope...sorta close though, but thats as far as I go

in the self-disclosure department...:)

[Haole Girl]

57. OK...I understand.

;-)

[Vorta]

46. Fifty bucks goes a long way around here. eom

[Haole Girl]

50. Ewe..

:eyes:

[Vorta]

53. Oh please.

[bertha katzenengel]

49. good, clear conversation, with actual eye-contact, and devoid of

cliches and politics.

[Haole Girl]

51. That's so funny you would say that....

...because my mother didn't allow any of us to use cliches while we were growing up...at all! She always taught us there were enough words in the English language without them! It really put me at a disadvantage, though, because I mix them up when I do try to use them! :rofl:

[bertha katzenengel]

54. At the end of the day, KC2, we're all just looking for love in all the wrong places.

:wtf: did i just say . . .

I'd love to hear some of your mixed cliches. :)

[Haole Girl]

56. It's not very attractive...believe me...

...I'm surprised you never noticed. For example (to humor you) I can never get the "bring home the bacon" one vs. the "put the bread on the table." By the time I try to say either of those they come out sounding obscene! :eyes:

[begin_within]

52. "The truth is the greatest turn-on" - Boyd McDonald

[Haole Girl]

58. *sigh*

If that were only true. When I was dating, it was rarely the case. When I kept my distance (psychologically) I was much more attractive. Just tossing around some ideas about that...

Thanks! :hi:

[gkdmaths]

59. Other... I am a man and

there is no other aphrodisiac than a woman who can capture my attention by engaging me in a conversation saturated with wit and intelligence. a conversation sly and at the same time kind. I desire sweet with a shake of nasty. This includes 'innocent darling' between two slices of 'I'm yours' .

there's a perfect woman for me, somewhere. I've seen hints of her in others - but they've been incomplete.




oh, who am I kidding? Its all a myth, right!

:sigh:

[Haole Girl]

60. Don't give up...

..there are many, many people in this world. Part of it is being courageous enough to try to find "the right one." Keep trying, and I promise you, the odds will be in your favor! ;-)

[gkdmaths]

62. Im aware, but you know those

days after a long week when all you want to do is relax with someone with whom you can surrender your vulnerabilities and not think twice. Its easy to find and hard to scrutize...

my.god. when did I get so sappy?

godnight DU. time for bed.

[Haole Girl]

63. Good night , gkdmaths!

:hi:

[gkdmaths]

66. g'night.

I meant "scrutinize"

but you knew that, right?

:7

Aequam memento rebus in arduis servare mentem
"when life is hard, keep an even mind" roughly translated (I'm studying latin over again).

[Haole Girl]

67. Yes, I knew that!

(not as if I haven't had my share of typos ;) )

:hi:

[Omphaloskepsis]

64. Giving me a haircut.. I usually shave with a #4, it isn't hard...

Shaving my face is doubleplus good. Tweezing my unibrow == skinny sex machine.

[Haole Girl]

65. I can see what you mean, I suppose...except...

...one should never use the words unibrow and sexy in the same sentence.

:hi:

[Guava Jelly]

69. A smile :o)..

oh and a pulse :7

[Haole Girl]

72. LOL

Hi GoPsUx! :hi:

[Guava Jelly]

88. Hi kc2

:hi:

[xchrom]

70. oysters on the half shell with a bottle of perrier jouette.

[Haole Girl]

73. I never did try oysters

Too afraid, with my luck, I'd get sick from it. :scared:

[xchrom]

78. ah -- one of the great pleasures of the universe.

[sarge43]

71. Witty, intelligent conversation while holding hands. n/t

[Haole Girl]

74. Yes

All good things. :-)

[zanne]

75. The smell of Ivory Soap on a man.

Can't explain it.

[Haole Girl]

76. Hmm...Oh, I 'm that way about Grey Flannel...

Yummy

[bridgit]

77. Other (please explain...carefully) = having all the bills paid...

:blush: :thumbsup:

[Haole Girl]

84. Well it helps, but...

I wouldn't call that one...personally.

[bridgit]

93. oh, did i forget to mention then off to a fav hotel overlooking SF bay...

'when the lights go down in the city' and all that, a day or two of hanky panky/footsie in public, culture/good food & drinks? oh, oh, oh...you may be looking for something you could pour into a drink perhaps ;)

can't help'ya there

[Haole Girl]

95. San Francisco is a very romantic city...

...very romantic. ;-)

[China_cat]

81. Money and Power

[Haole Girl]

85. They can be desirable, yes.

Or, they can be undesireable...depending on the person....(i.e., Dick Cheney). :-(

[Orsino]

82. Oxygen.

The least little hit of O2 does it for me.

[Haole Girl]

86. LOL

:hi:

[NewWaveChick1981]

83. An uninhibited person who is NOT sleazy or insane...

:rofl: :hi: That is, someone decent who is adventurous and not afraid to try new things, like me. :evilgrin:

[Haole Girl]

87. That's a fine line, isn't it?

:hi: :rofl:

[NewWaveChick1981]

89. Yes indeed...

:rofl: :hi:

[skygazer]

90. A long, dry spell

:evilgrin:

[Haole Girl]

92. Umm..yeah...

..probably. :evilgrin:

[RetroLounge]

91. I have absolutely no idea...

Poetry?

:shrug:

RL

[Haole Girl]

94. Yes...poetry...

good poetry, definitely. Especially well-written, original, sophisticated poetry. :hi:
