[flamingyouth]

1. Probably the first one - with the emphasis on "clean"

:D

[Misunderestimator]

2. Those don't look like hippies to me...

Or that would be what I would say... erm... if I was straight.

[SarahB]

6. Yeah.

They're not exactly full-fledged hippies, but the sort of casual look with hippie-like tendencies I'd go for as well. :D

[Phillycat]

8. Yes, I know.

I ended up Googling "Phish phans" because Google-imaging "hippies" brought up a million pictures of people dressed like hippies for Halloween, which was even more fake looking. Sorry, it was the best I could do.

[Misunderestimator]

32. Well, hey... how about this one:

gotta love those flowers :D

[Phillycat]

34. HAHAHA!!!!!!!!

I also like how the picture is all soft-focused...

[Misunderestimator]

35. Or there's this one:

It's kinda cute:

[Phillycat]

36. Awww.

Nice mustache!

[Arkana]

3. I'm a geek, so clean-cut girls are more my style...

[Dora]

4. I like the thrift-store genius look

It falls somewhere between clean-cut and hippie, with an occasional dash of punk or glam for sparkle.

[Richardo]

5. Probably #1, or a more casual business/professional look (#3)...

...which I expounded upon in 'White Male Geezer Fashion Corner' yesterday: http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=105x2164685 :)

[MaryH]

12. I love guys in jeans and t-shirts.

Expecially guys with blue eyes and blond hair in blue t-shirts.

Those guys are just too sexy for their shirts.

[Modem Butterfly]

7. Anyone not dressed in business attire-

I work WAY too much to want to see anyone in a suit as anything other than more work coming my way. Fuck, that's depressing.

I'm more attracted to a type than a clothing style. I like big bear-like men. My partner's 6'5" and about 300 lbs- John Goodman would be an ideal for me.

[MaryH]

14. I like that, too.

I like big guys - I don't care if they are on the heavy side. Just not obese. Big guys have always made me feel safe.

[Modem Butterfly]

17. I think there's a lot of us who feel the same way

Just last week when he was waiting to have lunch with his dad a lady asked the waiter to give him her number. His head grew two sizes that day!

[tigereye]

66. me too

love those teddy bear guys. I used to always be attracted to gangly basketball players in high school, though. But only smart ones. :)

[GR]

9. Bias, Preppy Is Showing Cleavage...Not Fair...

;)

[Phillycat]

13. I know, she's cute. I tried to find attractive people in all the genres

so that didn't affect people's choices. But it's harder with some than others. :)

[Briarius]

10. Casual

nothin fancy, jeans and a tee shirt, fleese or a hoodie when it's cold

[jdots]

11. Rubber and leather with studs

but clean cut with familly value tattoos

[MaryH]

16. Does that exist? Family value tats? Are you a Republican?

[Lavender Brown]

15. Preppy/hippie hybrid

[fluffernutter]

44. out of those pix, i agree with you.

[La Lioness Priyanka]

18. slutty

:P

[sniffa]

19. bwahaha

[La Lioness Priyanka]

24. i am perfectly serious

:P

:silly:

sluttiness rocks

[sniffa]

20. other - raver

[sniffa]

27. yay

but i aLready voted for other. :cry:

[Champ]

21. What no hip-hop/urban style?

:shrug:

[Phillycat]

23. Good god, I'm sorry! Adding it now!

[Champ]

25. lol it's ok

I probaly won't vote for the option anyways seeing how I dress based on what I like best. I just thought I would say it since I didn't see it listed. :hi:

[Dastard Stepchild]

22. Well, now that you've added Indie Rock...

I can vote. And I just did :)

[progmom]

26. somewhere between preppy and indie rock

comfortable but clean.

[StopTheMorans]

28. me too

:D

[Phillycat]

30. Me three.

Gimme a guy in a long-sleeved t-shirt with a short-sleeved t-shirt over it, jeans, and Pumas. *swoon*

[StopTheMorans]

31. that's what I wore out last friday

long sleeved red worn t-shirt, with a black t-shirt over it, and jeans (black casual dress shoes tho)...

[progmom]

40. that's my husband

Though his shoe of choice of late has been the Merrell Jungle Mocs.

[Abelman]

58. Pumas?

What about Adidas? Sambas?

[Phillycat]

60. Sure, those too.

And Simple, and what is that other name DCShoe?

[DS1]

29. All but western and raver

and there's nothing wrong with slutty on occasion - just because she's my slut :evilgrin:

[StopTheMorans]

33. BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

:thumbsup:

[brainshrub]

37. What about Elizabethan?

Now that's fashion.

[tigereye]

68. so you frequent those Renaissance faires, do you now?

:hi:

[brainshrub]

93. Guilty!

[tigereye]

100. those are a lot of fun

I wanted to dress up in medieval garb for Halloween, but had to settle for a goth wench type deal.

[Justin54B20L]

38. Punk for me, though my love for those women is often bittersweet

as I am more of a casual/cleancut man myself. Cruel, cruel dichotomy.

[Phillycat]

39. You could always get something hidden pierced.

They'd like that. :evilgrin:

[Justin54B20L]

41. Funny enough, along with tattoo's, I've actually been giving

that serious consideration.

[Phillycat]

42. Piercings are less of a commitment.

A tattoo is forever. :) (I have a bunch)

[Justin54B20L]

43. I realize that, thats why I'd consider them my first choice

[Xithras]

45. As I sit here in my tie and pressed slacks....

I've gotta go with the goths. There's something about dark chicks that has always revved my motor :evilgrin:

[Phillycat]

46. Yeah?

[Xithras]

47. Mmmm Hmmmmm

}(

[YellowRubberDuckie]

48. T-shirt and jeans.

Skip in his jeans and lucky brand shirt standing barefoot in front of me is so fucking sexy...
Duckie

[GOPisEvil]

49. I'm a sucker for the timeless classics.

Although, I do have a bit of a thing for women in business attire. :evilgrin:

[Richardo]

50. Women in neckties and men's shirts...Yum!

:9 :loveya:

[GOPisEvil]

52. Oh yeah...that too!

:9

There is an upside to having to wear dress shirts and ties every day. :evilgrin:

[tigereye]

70. that was me in college

but it was more of a punk/Patti Smith - type thing. Somehow I don't think that's what you meant. ;)

[Phillycat]

71. Knowing him, I bet it is. :)

[tigereye]

87. hey interesting thread

I was also a thrift store punk-geek-new wave flash- thing. I still sort of am, come to think of it, except when I am seeing clients. :)

[Richardo]

90. Oh yeah!

Sexy!

[tigereye]

98. yes that is what I tried to look like

minus the black hair, extreme skinniness and actual ability to intone great poetry. ;) I think she looks so cool there. I have always loved that cover.

[Pacifist Patriot]

96. Ditto your answer with one change.

"Although, I do have a bit of a thing for men in tuxedos." :evilgrin:

[Cadence]

51. Preppy cleancut

but a guy in a suit is hot! Just as long as it's not a republican guy in a suit then fuggedaboutit... only a lobotomy will help in that case!

[underpants]

53. NOT punk-business or in a ball on the floor works for me

:bounce:

[Skittles]

54. how about this little red number, guys?

[GOPisEvil]

55. Oh dear God...

I don't mind if a woman CAN kick my ass; I just don't want her to LOOK LIKE she can kick my ass.

:scared:

[Skittles]

56. I suspect your face may appear on it soon, David

courtesy of Matcom. BWAAAAAAAAAAHAAAAAAAAAAHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

[GOPisEvil]

57. *shakes fist*

Why I oughtta...

[Richardo]

59. KHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAN!!

:D

I'm pro-actively inducing hysterical blindness as a defense mechanism.

[Skittles]

73. I think a thong is in order for you, Richardo

BWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

[Richardo]

75. My eyes!!!

That is one hellacious onion :scared:

[Skittles]

77. perhaps lingerie is more to your liking

ask yourself why you keep looking, ya perv :7

[Richardo]

88. I'm going to have Skittles KICK YOUR ASS!! Wait a second.

Damn!

[Abelman]

61. Clean

not necessarily 'preppy,' but I'm very attracted to a girl not dressed all skankified.

Everyone loves guys in jeans, but I never wear them:( Just cargo pants and carpenters for me.

[NamVetsWeeLass]

62. Really depends on them.....

some guys wear jeans and t shirts and look good in them. Some dress like Eminem, and look good. Some look really good in dress clothes. Some look good in Wranglers. Personally, If I could cross Hugh Jackman and Vin Diesel I would be happy.

[Phillycat]

63. You and me both, sister. A gift for you:

[NamVetsWeeLass]

65. Times like this you really just sit there, Drooling and think

Why in the HELL didn't you PAN DOWN!?!?!?!?!?! Thank You, You made my day, however, I need to wipe the drool off the keyboard now.

[Phillycat]

69. Be careful of electric shock!

;-)

[BamaGirl]

74. Oh my

very nice ;)

[Solly Mack]

76. I was going to say preppy....but nude's fine.

especially that nude....

[Phillycat]

83. Perhaps I should have a seperate "Vin Diesel" category.

But then, I'd like to have a seperate "Vin Diesel" category for every poll that gets posted here. :)

[no name no slogan]

64. HA! "Indy-Rock" fashion. In my day, we called them "slobs"

I didn't know looking like a slovenly college student was a 'fashion' these days. And I'm a GenXer!

However you can't beat a Goth Boi in a black lace bra. :crazy:

[Phillycat]

67. Oh, see, I like the indie rock look.

Alt-country would fall into this category too. It is slobby, I guess, but it's a good look for boys, I think. Or maybe I just like this type of guy and so I've associated those clothes in my mind. :shrug:

[no name no slogan]

101. Confession: I'm an indie-rock kid

I even play in an indie-rock band. But I never thought that ratty jeans, messy haircuts and worn t-shirts were a "fashion statement".

Ah well, it sure as hell beats the 'glam' band I played in 15 years ago while in college. You wouldn't BELIEVE how much hair gel and make-up a fellow can go through in month :o

[BamaGirl]

72. Other...no military on this list

which is an entirely different kind of clean cut in my book. Those guys in the pic have way too much hair lol. Plus, there's something about a man in a uniform. Thank God I married one, lots of drool factor lol. How do I post a pic lol??

[Phillycat]

78. I love a man in uniform.

Firemen get me the hottest, though. Dear god!

[BamaGirl]

92. Yumm

So glad I already have one of those lol :D

[Ravenseye]

79. Slacker - Unless someone else said it.

From high school in the late 80's, college in the early 90's, and then on....we were just sort of slacker...a pinch of preppy, a dash of punk, a sizable helping of indie rocker, with some hippie thrown in for good measure.

[Phillycat]

82. Slacker.

[tigerbeat]

80. on first glance: indie rock....

but get me in a particular mood: goth girls blow my mind.

[WMliberal]

81. biz. only because your preppies seem a little more casual

than my taste. I don't consider people who wear t-shirts in public on a daily basis "preppie." Nor the kids who suddenly started wearing collars just so they could pop them on a daily basis. Those are just fashion slaves.
I love clean cut women who know what looks best on them, as far as appearances go. That leaves a lot of room for hippies, indie rockers, etc.

[Magrittes Pipe]

84. Nudity.

It's good to know what you're getting into beforehand.

[maveric]

99. I've always been partial to the Nude Look myself.

100% natural!

[dolo amber]

85. No self-respecting raver dresses like that

Not anywhere near anyone I know anyway, or they'd be face down on the concrete. :D

[Phillycat]

86. I was looking for a co-ed pic with the bright colors.

Find a better one!

[JohnKleeb]

89. casual preppy and hippie

[Phillycat]

91. I'm suprised we have so many preppy lovers here!

I would have thought DUers would be more...out there. :)

[La Lioness Priyanka]

94. not a preppie love

so i guess i am out there :P

[GOPisEvil]

95. What can I say? The classics never go out of style!

:D

[Courtesy Flush]

97. None of the above

When I see a woman who is clearly an artist type (usually the clothes are a giveaway), I get so turned on, I can't stand it.

Where do they buy those clothes? No one but artist-types seem to have them.
