All this time we've been padding our bras, lowering our necklines and relying on expensive silicone when come to find out, men aren't necessarily checking out our chests. In a recent Match.com poll, men were asked to choose between lips or hips. It went something like this:
Guys, which quality of a woman attracts you most?
• Hot Lips
• Curvy Hips
And to confuse us even more, most guys chose the hot lips. The score was 58% for the lips and 42% for the hips. Does this mean guys would prefer a Julia over a J. Lo? A good kisser over a good dancer? Faith Hill's song "This Kiss" over Ricky Martin's "Shake your Bon Bon?" Rather than spending valuable lipstick shopping time guessing, we went straight to the source to get to the bottom of this age-old question:
Trent, 32, chose lips, explaining, "A girl with luscious lips is just so sexy. I can't take my eyes off her lips when she's talking."
So that explains why guys never hear anything we say.
Charlie, 28, prefers curvy hips. He confessed that "an hour-glass figure is just how it should be. When a girl has curvy hips, she just looks more like a real woman."
Score one for the hips. Beyonce is breathing a sigh of relief right now.
Another hip man, Doug, 34, pretty much went with the lesser of two evils: When asked which he preferred, Doug responded, "Lips? All girls' lips are the same, right? They're reddish or pink and they use them for eating, kissing and mostly talking. I guess I'll take hips, but I'm actually a chest man."
Ah-ha. Nice to hear a padded bra still counts for something.
We then encountered a few more lip lovers:
"I always notice a girl's lips first," says Brandon, 38, "If her lips are thin and she's always frowning, I won't even talk to her. But if her lips are full, you know, more like Michelle Pfeiffer's? Then I'm totally attracted to her."
Jason, 26, agrees, "I love a girl's smile and her lips play an important role in that. If she's got big old lips and a big old smile, I'm hers."
Craig, 34, likes lips for a different reason, "I'm all about kissing," he admits, "So a girl's gotta have hot lips."
So I guess this means we should really focus on our lipstick and the color we wear?
"Not at all," Mark, 39, says, "We couldn't care less what color your lipstick is. In fact, we'd prefer if you didn't even wear any. It tastes bad and it gets all over our lips. Why do girls put on so much of it anyway?"
Yikes. Guess that means lip liner is out of the question, too.
"Lip liner is just about the most pointless invention I've ever seen," remarks Mike, 28, "I'm not exactly sure what it's for but I think girls use it to draw a line around their lips. What for? I don't draw a line around my nose."
While the men's advice proved helpful and entertaining, I wouldn't throw away your expensive tube of "red hot nights" just yet. You don't want to have ghostly lips when he first notices your gorgeous smile. And ladies, if you weren't blessed with Michelle Pfeiffer's lips, don't worry. You'll notice that curvy hips pulled in a nice percentage of the votes as well. So you can go ahead and shake your bon bon.
